✨ Experience Ultimate Relaxation at Villa Ikaros
Villa Ikaros is a peaceful retreat built on a hillside with enchanting views of Rethymno Bay and the serene Cretan sea. It combines the tranquility of nature with modern comforts, offering an ideal environment for couples, families, or groups seeking privacy and relaxation.
With 4 comfortable bedrooms and 4 modern bathrooms, the villa can accommodate up to 10 people (8 in the bedrooms and 2 on the comfortable living room sofa), offering comfort and privacy for all guests.
In 2026, the villa was completely renovated with new furniture and bedrooms, while new spaces were created to elevate your experience. A new area has been added on the rooftop with panoramic views of the Aegean Sea and the mountains, ideal for moments of absolute tranquility, meditation, or a glass of wine at sunset.
A private garden, with a well-maintained environment and complete isolation, is the perfect spot to read, write, or simply get lost in the sounds of nature — without anyone being able to see you.
The villa is fully equipped with all modern electrical appliances: new kitchen, new refrigerator, washing machine, dishwasher, oven, toaster, kettle, and coffee makers (espresso & French press). Enjoy free high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the villa. You don`t need to bring anything — you`ll find everything here.
We welcome you with traditional Cretan hospitality: you`ll find locally produced honey, raki, Cretan wine, and a large basket of fresh seasonal fruits and vegetables from our own gardens. All cultivated with care, without chemicals.
Wake up with sunlight bathing your room and enjoy your coffee on the veranda overlooking the sea. During the day, relax by the private pool, explore nearby beaches or villages. In the afternoon, experience the magic of sunset from the rooftop, and in the evening enjoy a bath under the stars.
💧 The pool can be heated during the cooler months, for a small additional charge — for comfort in every season.
The location of the villa is ideal: just 10 minutes by car from the beautiful beaches of Rethymno, 15 minutes from the old town with its picturesque alleys and traditional restaurants, and within close proximity to some of the most authentic villages in Crete. The area offers countless options for hiking, cycling, water sports, and exploring the rich history and culture of the island.
We are committed to environmental protection: the villa operates with solar energy for hot water, has a rainwater collection system for the garden, and we implement recycling and composting practices.
At Villa Ikaros, every moment is an experience: relaxation, nature, authentic Cretan life. Here, you won`t just find a place to stay — you`ll discover your own personal paradise. 🌟 UNIQUE EXPERIENCES AT VILLA IKAROS

Thank you stavros for the great stay!
10 / 10Outstanding·Dec 2016
We particularly enjoyed the silence, sounds of nature and the colourfull garden wall of bougainville, roses and conifers. We saw Bonelli eagles flying at least onces every day (ones even a griffonn vulture!) The villa is modern with rustic details, room are high. The villa is indeed fully equiped for 6 persons. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare quality food, and also the bbq is fully equipped. We even baked or ouwn bread. We used the Cretan Cookbook in the villa many times (english/german/dutch). There are alo tavernas in de surrounding area. The pool is big enough to swim lanes and there are 6 beds of good quality. For us it was a meditative and relaxing environment. We enjoyed driving the last part uphill, yes it is quit steep but we had no problems. The owner is helpfull, generous and friendly. When we arrived there were bottles of water in the fridge, bread to make toast, marmelade, butter and fruit. And off corse, raki on the table. This was our second time in Villa Ikaros and again we enjoyed this little paradise very much.
