About this property
Beautiful Stone Cottage with Sea and Mountain Views
Artemis house - its name taken after the ancient Greek goddess of the mountains and the forests - is a delightful stone cottage of unique character and architecture. Located at the foothills of the White Mountains, in an authentic Cretan village called Melidoni, it offers great mountain views and a good view to the renowned Georgioupolis beach. This absolutely charming house has a very cosy interior made out of stone and wood in warm and fresh colours. The atmosphere of the house is very relaxing and the cypress trunks of the roof leave a fine nature smell. The floor is wooden in both levels of the house. The bedroom is in the upper level, providing a fine wooden double bed and offering a view to the valley and Georgioupolis beach. The beautiful kitchen and living room are in the main level. The shower and WC in playful colours are in the main level too. Wooden cupboards are spacious both in kitchen and bedroom. There are many interesting walks in the area, a gauge to visit, and of course more advanced walks up the mountain tops. Its an ideal place for nature lovers. We offer tips, guidebooks and a detailed map with all the walks. And of course the district of Apokoronas where the house is located is famous for the archaeological site of Aptera, byzantine churches and monasteries, Kalyves sandy beaches, and traditional tavernas in picturesque villages of Vamos, Armeni, Stylos, Fres and others. From Melidoni, where the house is located, you can easily access and explore both Chania city and Rethymnon city, as it is less than a 30 minutes’ drive from Chania Venetian port, museums and city life and less than 40 minutes from Rethymnon medieval city as well. The long beaches where mainstream tourism goes to are also 15-20 minutes away from this quiet retreat. So, you are close to the main tourist scene in a unique tranquil location. Besides the maps and guide books, in the villas you will find a welcome pack including basic dairy products (milk and butter), local bread and cheese, thyme honey and olive oil. Bed linen are changed weekly while extra towels are stored inside the house for your convenience. The house is cleaned weekly. Please note that the Greek government has introduced a new tax fee, the Climate Resilience fee, which is €15 per day for summer house rentals. We are obliged to collect this fee during your stay and prior to your departure.
