About this villa rental
Villa Alexandros is a fully restored (in 2022) and beautifully preserved stone-built construction with historical roots dating back to 1885. It is situated in the charming village of Skouloufia, just 18 kilometers from Rethymno town. The entire villa spans an expansive 270 square meters and can comfortably accommodate up to 12 guests. In front of the villa, there is a paved patio area hosting a private 30-square-meter swimming pool that also includes a children's pool, complete with sunbeds and umbrellas. The villa features 6 bedrooms, 6 en-suite full bathrooms, and an additional guest WC.
The ground floor welcomes you with a living area featuring a cozy fireplace and a TV set. A few steps lead through a stunning stone archway to the fully equipped open-plan kitchen area, complete with a large dining table, a spacious fridge/freezer, a dishwasher, a microwave oven, an espresso coffee machine, and all the modern appliances you might need. Adjacent to the kitchen, you'll find a convenient guest WC and a utility room housing the washing machine. Furthermore, the ground floor boasts three bedrooms, two of which feature double beds, while the third offers two single beds, each with its own en-suite bathroom. The kitchen also provides access to the veranda, which is equipped with patio furniture, a large stone-built sofa, and a built-in BBQ with a traditional oven.
Moving to the upper floor, you'll discover three more bedrooms, two with double beds and one with two single beds, all accompanied by en-suite bathrooms. Every bedroom is individually air-conditioned and furnished with smart TVs. The entire villa is equipped with fast Wi-Fi internet access.
Skouloufia village boasts two traditional tavernas, a classic kafenion, and a mini-market. The nearest supermarket and the sandy beach of Stavromenos are located approximately 8 kilometers away. A must-visit attraction is the archaeological site of the ancient village of Eleftherna (4 km), which houses one of the most internationally important excavations and archaeological museums. Additionally, the renowned Arkadi Monastery (8 km) with its beautifully restored buildings and museum comes highly recommended. A car is essential for exploring the area, and free parking is available at the villa.

Lovely accomodation in a cozy village. Really great service from the host, who welcomed us upon arrival. By arrangement he had delivered pizza to the whole family and it was super nice when we arrived late. Had good contact with the host several times, who fixed minor challenges. Howevre, there is no minimarket or tavern ind the village.
