Tucked away in the peaceful village of Prines, just 8 km from the lively town of Rethymno and 3.5 km from the nearest beach, Villa Phaedra is a beautiful stone-built residence that perfectly combines traditional charm with modern comfort. Spanning 130 m² within a private 500 m² plot, the villa offers a serene setting for families or friends who wish to experience authentic Cretan living close to both the sea and the city.



Designed in the warm, rustic style of Crete, the villa features handcrafted wooden furniture and a cozy atmosphere throughout. The ground floor hosts a spacious living room with a fireplace and a sofa that can also be turned into a bed, comfortably accommodating two additional guests.

The same level includes a welcoming dining area, a fully equipped kitchen, a twin bedroom, and a bathroom with a bathtub and washing machine, conveniently located outside the bedroom. Large doors open to the garden and pool terrace, where guests can relax surrounded by olive trees and fragrant herbs.



On the upper floor, two more bedrooms—one with a king-size bed and one with twin beds—share a second bathroom with a bathtub. Both rooms open onto a furnished balcony with views of the sea and the oak-covered hills, perfect for enjoying a quiet morning coffee or an evening drink while taking in the peaceful surroundings.



Outdoors, guests can unwind by the private 28 m² swimming pool, relax on the sun loungers, or dine al fresco in the shaded terrace. The garden is filled with Mediterranean greenery, and the area also offers a barbecue and private parking for two cars. The villa accommodates up to 6 guests in three bedrooms, with the possibility of hosting two more on the sofa bed. Air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and a baby cot on request ensure a comfortable stay.



A short walk from the villa brings you to the heart of Prines village, where you’ll find a couple of traditional tavernas, mini markets, and a bus stop connecting you with Rethymno and nearby areas. With its peaceful setting, authentic character, and convenient location, Villa Phaedra offers an ideal base for exploring the beauty and culture of Crete.
