Με αυτό τον τρόπο κατασκευάσαμε ένα σπίτι που ικανοποιεί τις απαιτήσεις των επισκεπτών και τις καθημερινές ανάγκες, παρέχοντας: Την ενσωμάτωση του κτιρίου στο περιβάλλον του. Η θερμική λουτρό άνεσης το καλοκαίρι και το χειμώνα. Η ψύξη της βίλας (χωρίς κλιματισμό), θέρμανση και ζεστό νερό. Τέλος, εξαιρετικές συνθήκες φυσικού φωτισμού. Η βίλα είναι 186μ², χτισμένη με εσωτερική σκάλα. Στον επάνω όροφο υπάρχουν τρία υπνοδωμάτια με διπλά και μονά κρεβάτια, μπάνια και ευρύχωρες βεράντες με θέα στο απέραντο πράσινο που εκτείνεται στις κορυφές των Λευκών Ορέων.(Λευκά Όρη). Στο ισόγειο υπάρχει ένα ευρύχωρο καθιστικό με δορυφορική τηλεόραση, τζάκι και άνετο καναπέ. Καλά οργανωμένη κουζίνα, σε συνδυασμό με μια άνετη τραπεζαρία. Όλα τα υπνοδωμάτια είναι εξοπλισμένα με στρώματα Coco-mat και σεντόνια. Τοποθεσία - Εκδρομές: Η Κατική Γωνιά βρίσκεται μόλις 8χλμ. Από το Ρέθυμνο, στο χωριό Γωνιά. Το πράσινο τοπίο περιβάλλει το σπίτι και η θέα προς τα βουνά της νότιας και δυτικής Κρήτης είναι εξαιρετική. Το περιβάλλον είναι ιδανικό για πεζοπορία σε φαράγγια άγριας ομορφιάς, πράσινα μονοπάτια και κατά μήκος γοητευτικών ρευμάτων. Οι εύφοροι ελαιώνες και οι αμπελώνες προσφέρουν μια μεγάλη διαδρομή για το τρέξιμό σας, την ποδηλασία και τις σύντομες πεζοπορίες σας. Στη γύρω περιοχή υπάρχουν φιλόξενα μικρά χωριά όπου θα μπορείτε να δοκιμάσετε τη διάσημη κρητική φιλοξενία των φιλικών ανθρώπων του τόπου. Ένα φλιτζάνι καφέ κάτω από μια μουριά μαζί με τους ανθρώπους του χωριού, ή η ανάγνωση του βιβλίου σας θα είναι εικόνες που επιστρέφουν σε σας μετά τις διακοπές σας. Οι βόρειες παραλίες απέχουν μόνο δεκαπέντε λεπτά με το αυτοκίνητο, ενώ οι εξωτικές νότιες παραλίες είναι τριάντα λεπτά με το αυτοκίνητο, έτσι οι επισκέπτες είναι χαλασμένοι για επιλογή! Ιδιόκτητη παραδοσιακή ταβέρνα: Στην παραδοσιακή ταβέρνα μας, μόλις λίγα μέτρα από την βίλα, θα έχετε την ευκαιρία να δοκιμάσετε την παραδοσιακή κρητική κουζίνα με τον τρόπο που μόνο η «μητέρα μας» ξέρει να μαγειρεύει. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the villa: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car required - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Ice maker - Kitchenette - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming cats and dogs only - Up to 10 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - No lift (single-level property) - Designated smoking areas - Note from host: Outside of the villa. ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping (on request) - Iron/ironing board - Safe ### Location highlights - In a village - In the mountains - Near a hospital - Near a zoo - Near an outlet shopping centre - Near the bay - Near the marina ### Things to do - Bicycle parking - Bicycles - Water park - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Windsurfing nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - No smoke detector (host has indicated there is no smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - At least 80% of food locally-sourced - At least 80% organic food - Bicycle parking - Bicycles - Garden - Housekeeping (on request) - No plastic coffee stirrers - No plastic drinking straws - No plastic soft drink bottles - No plastic water bottles - Recycling - Reusable cups - Reusable tableware - Unit size: 2,002 square feet ## Similar properties ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/36000000/35080000/35071000/35070905/1be57686.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Only 10'min from Rethymno city Rethymno - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 9.8 Exceptional 14 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-19&endDate=2025-10-20&selected=35070905&PinnedHotelID=35070905&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33930000/33922800/33922715/90e59e63.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Poseidon Villa, Private pool, amazing sea views, walking distance to shops Rethymno - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Pet-friendly 9.4 Exceptional 40 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-19&endDate=2025-10-20&selected=33922715&PinnedHotelID=33922715&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34740000/34735100/34735057/95fa1eee.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Spacious Modern Villa with Pool and Amazing View!
