Holiday Home/Apartment - 7 persons - Monopari 741 00, Greece - 741 00 - Rethymnon

Villa Limeri forms the basis of a lifelong memory and is clearly made of the stuff that any celebrity or non celebrity seeks in order to find peace, quiet and that feeling of "separateness" (why else do people own islands and estates?). Yes, there is a road, since it is 15 klm away from the main town of Rethymnon, but that's how you get to Villa Limeri....once there it as if no road had ever reached the place. Eclectic in design and architecture as this has the modern version of a "great hall", yet none of the darkness of an old mansion, it is all exposed to the magic healing light we get so much of in Crete. In the middle of the flora and fauna, the massive mountains, the small trees and shrubs, the fragrant plants and herbs, the dramatic rocks to every side - far away from people, your view is open, the air is clear. The land area devoted to the house is large (20 hectares), but really you benefit from the extension of this all into the underpopulated hills beyond. Sit and think, write a paper, start a novel or go for a walk in the so many different paths that someone can take. Going inside this 280 sqm villa there is a great-hall sized living with spectacular views of inland Crete, dining and kitchen area and a 20sqm balcony. Then still on the ground floor, a unique modern stone and wood inspired bathroom. Opposite you will find one of the bedrooms and up the open wood stairs to a gallery corridor leading into the other 2 bedrooms and one smaller bathroom. There is no air conditioning in the living room but only in the bedrooms, as Villa Limeri's 420 m altitude and well angled position keep things cool. Or If you want to be a bit more cool, you can head down to the swimming pool.The name "Limeri", for your interest and perhaps descriptive of its qualities means a "haunt" or "refuge" and for others means 'a retreat', or 'lair' (as in pirate's or fox's lair) in GreekOther Facilities are: fireplace, central heating, mini HiFi, flat screen TV, DVD player, High speed internet connection and a fully equipped kitchen with gas, a dishwasher, fridge and washing machine.Mountain biking and hiking or if you are a bird watching enthusiast, bring your binoculars as Villa Limeri's position/location is ideal for these kind of sports!

It lies between the other two large towns - Herakleion to the east (at a distance of 80 kms.) and Chania to the west (at a distance of 60 kms). Rethymno City is really close. Small but beautiful and authentic in every aspect, Rethymno will give you the chance to come close to the Cretan culture and make you realize why Cretan hospitality is so famous. One thing is for sure: you will be coming back to Rethymno. As a favorite local songwriter put it “Rethymno is not the city you go; it is the city you go back”. Rethymnon is a blend of modern and old-time dignity and charm. It has a population of about 20,000 inhabitants and is the administrative and commercial centre of the prefecture, as well as a communications centre. It is well provided with travellers facilities and prides itself on its cultural activity and its significant presence in the general cultural life of the island, much of which is centred around the Faculty of Letters of the University of Crete, established here. Artistic events are regularly organized, as are exhibitions, plays, concerts and lectures. Rethymnon is linked by bus with the main towns and villages of the prefecture and also with Herakleion and Chania. Rethymnon has no airport, but it does have regular connections with the Chania airport. 1041K91002888201
