Séjour parfait

Du début à la fin de notre séjour, tout a été parfait. La communication avec la propriétaire a été irréprochable. Elle a toujours été disponible pour répondre à toutes nos questions avant et pendant le séjour. La maison est très agréable avec une belle terrasse. Mais ça reste le jardin le gros point fort de cette villa. Entre la piscine, les fleurs, les citronniers et le gazon, c'est un vrai paradis ! Cependant, la maison reste relativement éloignée d'une ville, il faut donc avoir une voiture sur place. Nous recommandons vivement cette adresse !

Perfekter Urlaub

Wir haben uns recht spontan entschieden nach Kreta zu fliegen und sind dabei über dieses Inserat gestolpert. Das Beste was uns passieren konnte. Von der ersten Kontaktaufnahme bis zur Abreise hat einfach alles tadellos geklappt und die Kommunikation mit Chrysa war einfach nur toll und hätte nicht besser laufen können. Wir hatten einen so schönen Urlaub in der Villa Antheon und würden jederzeit wieder buchen. Die Villa ist sehr sauber und geräumig und hat ein außerordentlich gepflegtes Grundstück. Der Pool war immer für eine Erfrischung gut und auf den Terrassen ließ sich wunderbar frühstücken oder bei einem Glas Wein den Tag ausklingen lassen. Vielen, vielen Dank für diesen tollen Urlaub!

Fantastic stay

We have had a very nice stay at villa Antheon. The house has everything you need, it is spacious and comfortable. The garden is very pleasant and the pool is very well maintained and large enough to play with the kids. The views from the house are spectacular and also the surroundings paths. It is 10 minutes by car to the supermarket and some tavernas with delicious food. Very important to mention the attention of the owners, attentive and willing to solve any matter. Efcharistó Chrysa!

Why they chose this property

The village of Monopari in Rethymnon, offers a sense of serenity and seclusion that is truly priceless. Away from the hustle and bustle of more touristy areas, our guests can experience a more authentic side of Crete, where the pace of life is slower.

What makes Villa Antheon even more special is its heritage. Passed down through generations, our family has cherished this land since our great-grandparents' time when it served as an olive oil factory. This history infuses every stone and tree with a sense of legacy and tradition that we are honored to share with our guests.

Ultimately, we chose this area because we wanted to create a retreat where guests could escape the stresses of modern life and immerse themselves in the beauty and authenticity of Crete. And in Monopari, we found the perfect canvas upon which to paint that vision.

What makes this property unique

Villa Antheon is more than just a place to stay - it's a haven crafted with love and steeped in the rich traditions of Crete.
Here, amidst the tranquil beauty of Monopari, you'll find a sanctuary where time slows down and the essence of Cretan life comes alive.
Our family, the heart and soul of Villa Antheon, takes great pride in extending warm hospitality and sharing our passion for the land. From our small farm to the carefully crafted wines we produce, every detail reflects our deep connection to this remarkable island.
We want our guests to experience not just accommodation, but a genuine immersion in the magic of Crete island.
