About this property

Villa Akalli | Private Pool & Hot Tub in a Restored Venetian Residence

    Hidden within the traditional village of Agia Paraskevi in Rethymno, Villa Akalli offers a stay that goes beyond typical holiday accommodation. This restored stone residence blends historical character with modern comfort, creating a setting that feels both authentic and refined.

    Dating back to the Venetian era of Crete (13th–17th century), the villa preserves its original architectural identity while introducing carefully integrated contemporary elements. Its name is inspired by Acacallis, the Cretan princess, adding a subtle connection to the island’s mythology.

    Private swimming pool
    Hot tub / jacuzzi
    Sun terraces and outdoor seating areas

    The villa accommodates up to 12 guests, thoughtfully arranged across:

    3 bedrooms
    3 bathrooms

    Fully equipped kitchen suitable for extended stays

    The layout works well for families, groups of friends, or multi-generational stays, offering both shared living areas and personal space.

    Location | Authentic Yet Well Connected

    Set in a peaceful Cretan village, the villa offers a genuine local atmosphere while remaining within easy reach of:

    Rethymno town
