Description
Indulge in an extraordinary experience at our earth-sheltered villa which belongs in the beautiful small complex of Altera cave villas, a tranquil adult-only retreat on the south coast of Rethymno, Crete. Boasting panoramic sea views and situated just 100 meters from a beach, this unique villa offers a harmonious blend of modern luxury and eco-friendly design. Ideal for couples or small groups, the villa features a private heated swimming. The villa is located only 3 kilometers from local taverns, cafes, bars, and a mini-market, all operational from April to October.
Designed with bioclimatic architecture and adhering to nearly zero energy consumption principles, the villa seamlessly integrates with the natural surroundings. The villa has a single-floor layout comprising a double-bedded bedroom, a modern en-suite bathroom, a fully equipped living room with a sofa-bed, and a well-appointed open-plan kitchen. The villa is fully air-conditioned and equipped with Satellite TV and Wi-Fi coverage in all areas.
Step outside to your private oasis, where a 28-square-meter swimming pool awaits (heated upon request at least one week prior to arrival in April, May, October, and November at an additional charge of €50 per night with a comfortable temperature of 22-25°C, depending on the weather) surrounded by comfortable sun loungers and outdoor furniture. A private terrace provides the perfect setting for alfresco dining or unwinding with the breathtaking views of the sea, pool, and lush garden. For your convenience, the property offers private parking with two designated spaces and a peaceful ambiance, ideal for relaxation.
At the properties areas exclusive wellness services are offered, including Spa, Hamam, Massage, and Yoga sessions (available at an additional cost) while sunbeds, and umbrellas are available at the beach just 150 meters down the hill.

The design and decor of Altera Cave Villas is amazing! The space is absolutely beautiful and nice and cool despite the 34 degrees outside. The pool and outside space was also incredible - with the best views. All that combined with a beach with crystal clear waters less than two minutes walk away meant that we didn’t want to leave! |
