Greece

Privileged by the sweeping vistas of the sea, the White Mountains and the golden Cretan sunset, these villas offer privacy without sacrificing convenience. The project consists of ten villas located in the wonderful traditional village of Episkopi, at a short distance from Rethymno and various beaches across the northern coastline of Crete.



Each villa has a two-floor layout with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and an open-plan kitchen area.



Inspired by the island's rich cultural heritage and following the strict building rules for the protected village of Episkopi, Cretan Sunset Villas are designed with traditional elements such as stone walls, wooden frames, arches, and tiled roofs, blending timeless charm with modern comfort.

Rentals

These properties are an ideal choice if you are looking for a combination of own use and rentals or if you are interested in investing in a property to generate extra rental income. Crete offers the longest holiday season among Greek islands. The North of Crete, close to Rethymno, is a top choice for villa rentals from April to November. As an added value, their size allows for easy accommodation for families and larger groups.

Location

Cretan Sunset Villas enjoy a hillside location, surrounded by olive trees and vineyards, on the outskirts of Episkopi Village. The village itself, listed as a traditiοn l s ttlement of the island, retains its authentic charm with preserved old houses and numerous churches. It is built of narrow streets leading to a central square, where locals gather at traditional cafes and taverns to chat over local food and raki.



Episkopi Beach, approximately 3 km away, is part of a long stretch of coastline between the towns of Chania and Rethymno. This sandy part of the coastline begins at Georgioupoli and extends eastward for roughly 9 km. 



Episkopi is a prime location to live and explore Crete, with a variety of pebbly and sandy beaches, archaeological sights and stunning nature. Here, you can refresh yourself away from the crowds while you enjoy the livelier, more cosmopolitan lifestyle of Rethymno whenever you want.
