About this property

Holiday home sea view dreamlike holiday home with pool & privacy!

This extremely attractive, detached two-bedroom bungalow is located within walking distance of the beach in Tavronitis (about 250m). It has a large roof terrace, two small gardens with terraces (a garden with a terrace in front of the house and behind the house the fully fenced terrace and pool area with a breathtaking sea view). Around the house you will find some seating with garden furniture on the terraces or roof terrace as well as 4 sun loungers, 1 parasol to sit in the shade of the sun as you wish.
At the near sea with sand / pebble beach are 2 charming beach bars. There is everything there for daily needs for a day at the sea. Of course, there are also sun loungers with umbrellas the beach bar guests free of charge (as of summer 2019).
The house is very quiet, with complete privacy, at the end of a cul-de-sac, in a small private complex (partly owner-occupier, partly cottage rental) and within walking distance of all amenities (tavernas, kafenion, bakery, butcher, mini / supermarket) the village of Tavronitis.

THE HOUSE
This charming property with the typical Greek blue and white color scheme consists of two bedrooms each with 1 double bed (1x1,6x2m with soft mattress, 1x1,4x2m with hard mattress) fitted wardrobes, two bathrooms each with toilet, sink, shower (with proper shower enclosure), full equipped kitchen (ua Dishwasher, microwave, toaster, Senseo Pad coffee maker, coffee maker for pressing, etc.) And living room with 2 sofas, 46 inch satellite Smart TV with dolby surround system. All this on one level.
When you reach the property, a beautiful and colorful garden, located in front of the house, welcomes you.
You enter the house and see the very stylish open plan living room / dining room with a wood burning stove and air conditioning. Many windows and French sliding doors guarantee the constant flow of light in the house.
On the right side, separated from the living area by a breakfast bar, is the fully equipped underground kitchen with plenty of storage space. A small hall leads to the 2 bedrooms each with their own shower rooms with WC.
The master bedroom has a double bed, make-up corner, bedside tables, a 4-door, floor-to-ceiling wardrobe, a door leading to a patio with an open pergola, and a private toilet / shower room with an electric towel rail.
The second bedroom with double bed, bedside tables and sufficiently large built-in closet also has its own patio access, as well as a dressing table. Again, there is a separate small toilet / shower room with an electric towel rail.
The entire interior is of high quality and tastefully furnished, so that our guests feel like they are in a "feel-good home" on vacation.
The house is fully equipped and could be inhabited year-round. The house has double glazed aluminum windows with fly screens on all windows and patio doors.

OUTSIDE
The north-facing main patio is a place for outdoor living. The view of the sea is absolutely breathtaking. The sun-roofed pergola features a seating area with patio furniture and a gazebo with a dining table next to it. There is the ideal place to eat and drink. The wall to the neighbor not only provides shade, but together with the wooden patio gate guarantees complete privacy. The entire complex is tiled with natural stone floors. Under the stairs to the roof terrace is the utility room also used by the janitorial service with freezer, washing machine and dryer.
The garden is the Aufstell-pool with sea views, many garden furniture with matching seat cushions, a wooden garden shed (only for janitorial service) and a charcoal grill.
Tiled steps lead to the terraced terracotta tiles. A pergola covered with an awning offers breathtaking views of the sea, the Rodopos peninsula and the beautiful sunsets.
The house is detached, very quiet and in an absolute top location, only about 150 meters walk from the sea (100m as the crow flies) and about 650 meters walk (10 minutes on a leisurely walk) from the village center.

THE AREA
The coastal village of Tavronitis, which starts about 250 meters from the property, is a lively Greek village that does not "shut down" in winter and offers all the amenities. The village beach consists of sand and pebbles and crystal clear water.
Tavronitis also has a motorway exit to Chania - Kissamos, from where you can reach the center of the city of Chania, with its beautiful Venetian harbor and in about 40 minutes to the airport in about 20 minutes.
It is located in western Crete and belongs to the municipality of Platanias. Tavronitis is a traditional quiet little village with several taverns, bakers, butchers, supermarkets, hairdressers, pharmacy, dry cleaners and small shops. The sandy / pebble beach of Tavronitis extends to the coastal town of Kolimbari (6Km), there is a small promenade on the beach and 2 beach tavernas. The place has a great water quality. We ourselves like to use this sand / pebble beach because it is not crowded.
The hinterland of Tavronitis is ideal for walking and cycling.
Enjoy the famous nature reserves such as the Imbros Gorge (about 80 km / 60 minutes away by car), the Samaria Gorge (about 60 km / 45 minutes drive) and visit the Natural Monument, the oldest olive tree (it is only a few km away on the village square from Vouves and is estimated at 3500 - 5000 years with a diameter of 3.64 meters and a circumference of 12.5 meters).
The famous dream beaches of Falasarna and Elafonsi are only 32km / 40 minutes by car or 65km / 80 minutes by car.
The birthplace of the Sirtaki in the village of Stafros with its beautiful beach and its taverns are only 35km / 45 minutes away by car.
Many Northern Europeans have built their second home in the hinterland of Tavronitis and Kolimbari, which is not by chance.

You can easily reach Tavronitis by bus, which runs regularly from Chania, or by taxi. Another option is to rent a car or a motorcycle.
Of course, the transfer by taxi or rental car (with all insurance) can also be arranged by us.

We hope to give you a little insight into the remarkable location and equipment of the holiday home Seaview Tavronits Western Crete and please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions.

The house only needs to be returned swept clean, a classic cleaning is not required by the tenant.

The house is officially registered for holiday home rental under the AMA number 00000543621 and registered in the Greek "Short Term Rental Property Register". It is therefore taxable in Greece.

Perfect villa in perfect location
Our stay at this lovely property was perfect and it had everything we needed for a self-catering holiday. All initial supplies were provided which was an added bonus. The uninterrupted views and sunsets towards the sea front from the veranda and roof terrace were amazing. The pictures do not do it justice. The villa is situated at the end of a very quiet road and we found the quiet and peace we were looking for. The local shops were a 10 minute walk with a bakery, fishmonger, butchers and 2 supermarkets. Then in the opposite direction a 5 minute walk took you to the sea front with two lovely Taverns. The food was very good and reasonable. A three course meal for 3 people with drinks came to approx. 55 Euro. There is a vast amount of things to do and visit in the area from Oil Olive farms, soap making factory, bee keeping and lots of beaches. We didn’t touch the surface and want to come back and explore more of this lovely side of the Island. Communications with the owner, Rainer, and the concierge team was excellent and it is very competitively priced. I would highly recommend this villa to anyone and look forward to a return visit one day.

Great house in perfect location
We spent one week in this lovely house and our stay was very pleasant. The house is located at the end of a very small road ensuring quiet and peace at every time of day and night without being too isolated. At the same time it is at walking distance from shops and restaurants of the village of Tavronitis. The sea view from the spacious veranda and the lovely uncrowded beach at just 5 minutes by foot are a plus. The house is spacious, nicely furnished and with all necessary comforts and one can feel that it is not”just” another vacation rental house. As parents of a teenager daughter, we appreciated the presence of two fully equipped bathrooms. The location is perfect for exploring the west side of Crete, being at short driving distance from the major attractions of the area such as Chania, the beaches of Elafonitis, Balos and Falasarna, the archeological sites of Polirinia and Aptera, and the Samarias Gorge amongst others. Communication with the owner, Rainer, and the caretaker, Stathis was excellent. Rainer provided us with very detailed information before the trip and even helped us with the car rental. Stathis welcomed us and explained everything in details. In the house we found a booklet with extensive information about the surrounding area (amenities, restaurants, touristic destinations, etc.). Overall, we had a great time in Rainer’s place and we highly recommend it.

Nice & quiet nouse
We enjoyed a lot our vacation in Rainer's place. The house has all the comfort we need for 4 persons. Nothing was missing. It is very quiet. We loved being inside & outside. The roof top is fantastic to enjoy a drink while watching the sunset. The pool is small - but enough to cool down when the temperature raises. Anyway, the Tavronitis beach is only 10 minutes away by walking. The village of Tavronitis is authentic with no tourists. The house is within short driving distance to all the different attractions (Balos & Elafonitis beaches, Hania, Agia Triada, Samaria Gorges). It was our first time in Crete, and Rainer's place was our first good surprise.
