About this property

Steps to Beach,dazzling sea view


Fotinari Villa I is approved by Greek Tourism Organisation & managed by "etouri vacation rental management".


Fotinari Villa I is a part of the Fotinari Villas complex that is situated along the southern coast of Crete in Plakias. It is within walking distance of the beach with dazzling frontal sea views. It is ideally situated, being very near the most amazing beaches in Rethymno, as well as the amenities, restaurants, and bars around the Plakias area. Right below the Villa there are two adjacent small beaches, both within walking distance, which are not organized, but we will provide umbrellas and portable sun beds to our guests, for when you want to walk there. Fotinari Villa is also the ideal base to explore the natural south coast of Crete as it is close to numerous other spectacular beaches as well as close to amenities.


Fotinari Villa I is a 160 sq. m. residence situated in the southern coastal area of Plakias in the prefecture of Rethymno. The Villa boasts stunning ocean views of the Libyan sea and offers its guests a sense of harmony and tranquility and can accommodate up to 6 guests in its 3 bedrooms.


Layout
1st Floor
Entering the villa, guests find themselves in a cosy living room, with a 45 HDTV, PS4, and Bluetooth speaker. Large glass doors offer direct access to a spacious veranda, overlooking the sea and pool, equipped with a 3 seater hot tub and outdoor furniture. The first bedroom offers 2 single beds (0,90 x 2,00) that can be set up as a King-sized bed upon request (1,80 x 2,00), direct access to the veranda. Also, on the same floor, you will find a bathroom with a shower, making this area a small private apartment within the house, offering privacy for your group.
Finally, a laundry room with a washer and a dryer exists on this level.


Ground Floor
Stairs lead from the living room to the ground floor, where you can find an open plan area with a second sophisticatedly furnished living room and dining area. Also, a fully equipped kitchen with a dining area for up to 6 people can be found next to the seating area. The room also offers direct outdoor access, leading to another veranda and the pool terrace, enjoying magnificent sea vistas.
Additionally, the remaining two bedrooms of the Villa are located on the ground floor, both of them featuring two single beds each (0.90 x 2.00), which can be joined together to form a King-size bed upon request. Both offer direct access to the pool terrace. One of them has its own ensuite bathroom with a shower.
A family bathroom with a shower is also available on this floor. The ground floor has its own entrance from the kitchen, which separates it from the first-floor guests if desired.


All bedrooms are air conditioned and have 32 HDTVs.


Outdoor area

Etwas Sommer nachgeholt

Haus und Lage sind wunderbar, es ist alles, wie beschrieben. Die Aussicht ist grandios. Vom Haus ist man in ca. 5 Minuten zu Fuss an einer kleinen Badebucht, wo man sofort schnorcheln kann. Größere Strände sind mit dem Auto in wenigen Minuten erreichbar. Zur nächsten Taverne sind es schon ca. 2 Kilometer. Wir sind zum Essen teilweise gelaufen, mal gefahren und auch mal mit dem Taxi zurück. Es gibt aller paar Tage, ich glaube aller 3, einen Reinigungsservice, frische Handtücher und Bettwäsche. Es gibt viele Zusatzangebote, die man sich zusätzlich buchen kann, also im Haus bekochen lassen etc., wir haben das aber nicht genutzt. Wir können das Objekt sehr empfehlen.

Amazing vacation!

Staying at Fotinari Villa I was a true honour. Its a bit out of town and offers relaxation and a get-away from everyday life. Beautiful view, an excellent house that has pretty much everything you need, and fantastic service from Etouri that manages the service. Id recommend having a car staying here, and then this is pretty much a perfect vacation!
