About this property
Villa Marlia
Set in the peaceful village of Mesonisia, this charming stone villa offers a warm and welcoming retreat, perfect for families, friends, or anyone seeking a relaxing holiday in Crete. With its timeless design and cozy interiors, the villa blends traditional charm with comfort, providing an inviting atmosphere for an unforgettable stay.
Villa Marlia is built over two levels and can accommodate up to 8 guests. It features three double bedrooms and one bedroom with a bunk bed. The master bedroom includes an en-suite bathroom, while the remaining bathroom is shared. All bedrooms are bright and comfortable, each with a TV, and the villa is fully air-conditioned throughout. The open-plan kitchen and living room create a welcoming space for meals and relaxation, with direct access to the outdoor area and private swimming pool.
Outside, the villa features a private pool surrounded by comfortable loungers and umbrellas, perfect for relaxing under the Cretan sun. A dedicated outdoor dining area is ideal for alfresco meals or evening drinks, while the expansive terrace offers plenty of space to unwind and enjoy the stunning mountain views.
Guests have full private access to all areas of the villa, both indoors and outdoors.
Mesonisia, situated near a Natura 2000 plateau, is a peaceful village ideal for exploring both northern and southern beaches of Crete. The southern beaches, including Preveli, Damnoni, Ammoudi, and Plakias, are approximately 30–40 km away and offer crystal-clear waters, sunbeds, umbrellas, and small beach taverns.
The village itself is quiet, but nearby Gerakari (2 km) provides two taverns, a small supermarket, and an ATM. Spili (12.5 km, about 20 minutes by car) is the largest nearby village, offering a variety of restaurants, supermarkets, local shops, banks, a post office, a health center, and a police station.
Nearby attractions include Spiliou Monastery, Patsou Gorge, Arkadi Monastery, Kourtaliotiko Gorge, Fortezza Fortress, and the Armenian Minoan Cemetery.
Marlia Villa is perfect for nature lovers and those seeking a quiet, authentic Cretan experience, with opportunities for hiking, cultural excursions, and relaxing in an untouched, scenic environment.
The villa offers an outdoor parking space, where you can safely park your car. For exploring Crete’s beautiful landscapes and beaches, a car is highly recommended.
