INFORMATION ABOUT THE AREA

Villa Nikolaos is located in the picturesque village of Archea Eleftherna (Ancient Eleftherna), in Rethymno Prefecture. For those who love the quietness, strolling, the nature and the genuine Cretan landscape, this villa is an exceptional choice.

The village is located on a high hill, surrounded by the main archaeological site of the prefecture which with the newly built museum of Ancient Eleftherna are worth a visit for discovering and feeling the ancient history of the area.

Access by car is easy to most parts of the island, for example Chania, Heraklion, Sfakia, Anogeia, Nida, Knossos, Faistos and the southern coast beaches, that are many and beautiful. The road network is excellent and passes through some of the most beautiful and still attached landscapes in Crete. Particularly we recommend the visit in the southern coasts, via the very green province of Amari via Arkadi, Thronos, Meronas, Gerakari, and Spili etc.
