About this villa rental
The first sight upon entering this villa is the breathtaking view across the infinity pool into Stavros sea and mountain, famous from the 1964 Oscar nominated film “Zorbas the Greek” with Anthony Quinn. Our villa is the house where Anthony Quinn (Alexis Zorbas) lived in and the beach in front of the villa is the beach where he danced the famous “syrtaki”.
The villa features a infinity edge swimming pool and sunbathing terrace with luxurious high quality sun loungers and umbrellas. Sometimes, especially in the evening is very difficult to distinguish the pool water from the water of the sea… The outdoor seating area, complete with pizza oven, BBQ, bar and lounge area, provides guests with ample space to enjoy outdoor living at its very finest, both day and night, with glamorous lighting illuminating the terraces once evening sets. Surrounded by a luxuriant Mediterranean garden and stoned terraces, its gates will lead you directly into the limpid, translucent waters of Stavro's sea... unless, of course, you prefer the infinity pool and its hydromassage corner!
The patio, filled with climbing plants and geraniums is the perfect place to enjoy breakfasts and lunches on the shaded terrace where the island’s brisk breezes the cool area.
An ideal place for our little ones also where they can enjoy themselves on the playground and the basketball court.
Every year we are trying to improve your staying and we are updating our facilities.
We added a luxurious swing chair with stand and a very comfortable huge chair...It s difficult to describe it, it s better to seat on it.
We also provide a professional ping pong table and a new football table with telescoping steel rods and steel ball bearings.
Step back in time and spend an idyllic holiday experiencing Cretan living from a beautifully restored village house on the historic island of Crete.

This property was absolutely incredible, and just as described! Our family of four enjoyed walking out just steps to the beach, swimming in the pool, playing basketball and ping pong, riding bikes, etc. The highlight was the generosity of Dimitris, who recommended excellent beaches, restaurants, and hikes. He even arranged for a wonderful massage at the house, at our request. Additionally, we had fresh fruit, coffee, bread, etc upon our arrival, and even got surprise fresh baked treats during our stay! We loved our stay and hope to come back

We had the most fantastic 2 weeks at Stavros Villa. It’s the most beautiful place. The house is lovely- well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, excellent shower. We spent most of our time lounging by the fabulous pool and playing table tennis. Exceptional hospitality from Dimitris and Manolis - delicious homecooked treats! It’s so great we’ve booked to come again next year! It’s a very special place!

Exceptional location

There was always something to do here, whether swimming in the ocean which was more calm than a lake, or in the pool or playing basketball or in the backyard player with sand. There were also so many toys!
Our kids range from 3-11 and it was an amazing stay for all. As a mother to so many hungry people it meant a lot to me that when we arrived on Saturday evening so many grocery staples (and extras) were waiting for us! How relaxing to not have to wake up and worry about how or where to find food! There were quite a few restaurants nearby as well. The back sitting area under the beautiful pink flowers is like a dream to have breakfast under also. We hope to come back again soon!
