About this property

Mythos Villa I, Walk to Beach, Private Pool

Mythos Villa is a stylish newly built villa perfectly located in the beautiful area of Damnoni, just 250 metres from one of the most stunning sandy beaches of Southern Crete. Combining modern comfort, elegant design, and an exceptional location, this charming retreat is ideal for couples, families, and friends seeking a relaxing holiday close to the crystal-clear waters of the South Cretan Sea.



Part of a beautiful boutique complex of villas, Mythos Villa offers the perfect balance of privacy and tranquillity while remaining close to all amenities. For larger groups or families travelling together, additional villas within the complex may also be available, making it an excellent choice for shared holidays while maintaining individual privacy.



The villa accommodates up to 4 guests and is thoughtfully arranged over two levels. The bright open-plan living area features a fully equipped kitchen, dining area, and a comfortable lounge, creating a welcoming space to relax after a day at the beach. Two beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with its own modern en-suite bathroom, provide comfort and privacy throughout your stay.



Outside, guests can enjoy their own private swimming pool surrounded by a well-kept garden and furnished terrace. Whether you spend your days swimming, sunbathing, dining al fresco, or simply unwinding with a glass of wine under the stars, the outdoor spaces have been designed to make the most of Crete's wonderful climate.



The location is truly exceptional. Damnoni Beach, famous for its golden sand and crystal-clear turquoise waters, is only a short stroll away, while traditional tavernas can be reached on foot. Just 3 km away lies the vibrant seaside resort of Plakias, one of Southern Crete's most beloved destinations, offering a wide selection of restaurants, cafés, bars, supermarkets, shops, and water sports activities.



The wider area is renowned for its breathtaking natural beauty, dramatic coastline, and some of Crete's most spectacular beaches. Guests can easily explore nearby gems such as Ammoudi, Schinaria, Souda Beach, and the famous Palm Beach of Preveli, while picturesque mountain villages and scenic hiking routes provide endless opportunities for discovery.



Whether you are looking for relaxing days by the sea, unforgettable sunsets, authentic Cretan hospitality, or adventures along the stunning south coast, Mythos Villa provides the perfect setting for an unforgettable holiday in Crete.

Totalny perfect

A great place to relax from the hustle and bustle of the city, yet very close to Plakias with its shops and plenty of bars. A great place. The only thing that can be improved is the lighting in the garden and by the pool, half of the lamps are not working, it's probably time for an inspection

Spacious 2 bed house near restaurants

The staff were lovely & it was very clean. WiFi was great and you can easily walk to about 4 tavernas & the beach. Absolutely no privacy whatsoever. Many tour buses park outside all day with 100’s of people passing. We didn’t use outside/the pool as it was so overlooked. Grow privacy plants in the garden & it’ll be a huge improvement.

"I can only recommend the Villa Mythos

"I can only recommend the Villa Mythos. In the house it has everything you need: Well equipped kitchen with everything necessary, a large refrigerator with icebox, air conditioning with which you could also heat. This was very pleasant now in April. Netflix and Wifi. In each room there is a bathroom with shower with enough hot water. The pool is very refreshing. The bed linens and bath towels are changed several times a week as needed. The cleaning lady picks up the trash every day. When we arrived there was water in the fridge, fresh oranges, good homemade olive oil, spices, coffee and tea bags, sugar. There was really nothing lacking. It has a hair dryer and iron, washing machine with clothes rack and clips. The owners of the Villas are the siblings Andreas and Eva and are very warm and accommodating. You can always reach them by phone and they will come over immediately to help if you need anything. The village of Damnoni is small and has only a few restaurants, but they were not open now in April. But this is not a problem, because in five minutes you are in the bigger village Plakias and there are many good restaurants and supermarkets. We bought meat directly in the butcher's shop and it was all best quality. With the rental car we could make many excursions from our location. We would spend our vacations immediately again in the Villa Mythos. It was a super nice time and we were able to recover quite well."

Fantastic stay in a perfect location

We had a lovely time all through our stay here. Eva and her family were incredibly welcoming and generous towards us, we felt very much at home. The villa was immaculate and modern too. Perfect location with the beach just a 2 minute walk away. Highly recommend these villas.
