Nestled away from the hustle and bustle, Villa Romenos rests serenely in the quaint village of Prinos, offering a tranquil escape from the clamour of everyday life. This charming abode, dating back to the early 20th century, exudes the timeless allure of rural Cretan architecture, with its sturdy stone construction and traditional inner courtyard.
Stepping through the threshold, you are welcomed into a space where history and modernity harmonize seamlessly. A labour of love, the villa has undergone meticulous renovation, preserving its original character whilst introducing contemporary comforts. The wooden oven, a relic of bygone days, stands proudly as a testament to the house's heritage, evoking nostalgia for simpler times.
Venturing indoors, the villa unfolds over two inviting floors, each exuding its own distinct charm. Ascend to the first floor, where lofty ceilings and a tasteful fusion of stone and wood create an atmosphere of understated luxury.

Two cosy bedrooms provide sanctuary for restful slumber, each boasting a separate entrance for added privacy and direct access to the enchanting courtyard terrace, garden, and inviting pool. A shared bath ensures convenience, while a quaint middle room beckons for quiet contemplation.

Here, amidst fragrant blooms and dappled sunlight, alfresco dining takes on an enchanting allure, offering a private haven for savouring culinary delights and forging cherished memories with loved ones.
Beyond the villa's tranquil confines, the allure of Rethymnon beckons, just seventeen kilometres away, while the nearest beach lies a mere two kilometres from your doorstep.
