About this property

Irida beachfront Villa for 12 next to all amenities

Villa Irida is a stunning beachfront villa, situated along the popular sandy shores of Rethymno town. This magnificent modern villa sets a high standard in terms of design, appliances, and furnishings, offering comfortable accommodation for up to 12 guests. It enjoys a prime location right on the beach of Rethymno, approximately 3 kilometers from the town center, and is conveniently surrounded by a variety of amenities, including taverns, bars, restaurants, and supermarkets.

The villa is spread across three levels. On the ground floor, you'll find a spacious living-dining room, an open-plan kitchen fully equipped with modern appliances (including a microwave, toaster, kettle, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, and oven), a bedroom with two single beds and an en-suite shower room with WC, and a second bedroom with a double bed. French doors from this level lead to a charming covered veranda with patio furniture, situated adjacent to the pool and offering direct, breathtaking views of the Cretan sea and the sandy beach.

An internal marble staircase leads to the upper floor, where three more bedrooms are located. Two of these bedrooms feature comfortable double beds, and the third has two single beds. Additionally, two shower rooms with WC can be found on this floor, one of which is en suite to one of the bedrooms with a double bed. All bedrooms are equipped with air-conditioning for your comfort.

The third level, accessible via a marble staircase from the middle level, features the sixth bedroom with two single beds and an adjoining shower room with WC. Additionally, a playroom with a billiard table awaits, providing entertainment for guests of all ages.

Outside, a lovely 32 square meter pool (4 x 8 meters) complements the villa, surrounded by a small grassy area, perfect for children's play. Sun loungers and umbrellas are available around the pool, providing relaxation and sunbathing opportunities. With the convenience of local amenities, a car is not necessary, and a taxi station is just 50 meters away. Children are warmly welcomed in the villa, and a high chair and baby cot can be provided upon request. Please note that the changeover day for this villa is on Saturdays.

Very nice villa with perfect location

Villa is very spacious and clean, we had a group of 12 people and everything worked very well! The location of the villa was perfect, you had everything you needed with a walking distance; beach, restaurants, grocery store and other shops. With taxi you could get in to old town of Rethymno in couple of minutes.

Fabulous!

Our family with ages ranging from 74 to 2 returned for our second stay at Villa Irida. It is a perfect place for us with plenty of space in the villa, a private pool and across the road from the beach. Bars and restaurants are close by and a cab into the town only costs €5. Supermarkets are an easy walk away. The owner was very helpful before our stay and on hand during our stay if we needed her. I’m sure we’ll return again

Excellent location

Couldn’t ask for a better location. Right next to a great beach. Lovely villa with a big pool. Games room. Spotlessly clean. Plenty of room for 12 of us. Taxi rank right outside to get into town in a couple of mins. Owners were excellent in helping out and replying to any questions. Would definitely recommend and even though not a fan of going to the same place twice would happily do so here.

Entspannungsurlaub mit der Familie

Das Haus hat liegt in einer Top Lage direkt am Strand am Ende einer Sackgasse. Das Haus verfügt über neu eingerichtete Schlafzimmer. Die Küche ist etwas spärlich ausgestattet ( Besteck, Teller, Gläser) und hat nur eine kleine Spülmaschine. Die Bäder sind etwas in die Jahre gekommen, sollen aber laut Vermieterin nach der Saison erneuert werden. Die Vermieter selbst sind sehr freundlich und schauen mehr Mals die Woche vorbei und fragen nach dem rechten. Rund um ein entspannter Familienurlaub in einer Villa in der wir bereits 2x gehaust haben und gerne wieder kommen werden

Fantastic holiday in Villa Irida, Rethymno

Villa Irida is a great villa - we have stayed several times and love going back. It is well decorated, spacious, clean, comfortable and in a good location. The owners are very helpful and friendly. Oreo travel offer a very good service, helpful and communicate well, always prompt in responding to messages. The majority of what you need is at the villa. There are just one or two things that would be useful: - a tray to carry items to the dining table outside a baking tray a small/ medium sized saucepan a folder of suggestions of tavernas from other guests and from the agency, where to go for a Greek night and local market days. These are only a few small things.

Beachfront villa

Location. Owners. Pool. Been a few times but had a few issues this time. Leaking drainage under sink. Smells from upstairs drains. No shower attachments on 2 showers so had to hand hold, not gd when washing long hair. Had to ask for pool towels tea towels and plastic cups to take round the pool. Toilet roll holders hanging off. Not good.

Fantastic location and beautiful Villa.

Loved this Villa. At first I was concerned we might be too over looked but the part of the beach where the Villa is opposite is really quiet (we went during the summer holidays). The Owner of the Villa was helpful as were the cleaning staff, really thorough job twice a week. Agency we booked through via VRBO were great, replied within hours whenever I messaged, leading up to the holiday and during. I would return to this Villa for sure. Highly recommended.

Herrliches Haus

Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Zeit in diesem wundervollen Haus.Die Ausstattung ist außergewöhnlich gut, die Schlafzimmer sind groß und die Matratzen fest und alles andere als durch gelegen. Aufgrund des noch guten Wetters haben wir die großzügig geschnittenen Innenräume nur zeitweise genutzt, die Küche hat alles was es benötigt, vielleicht mit Ausnahme einer Salatsschüssel. Der Internetempfang ist gut, allerdings nur im Erdgeschoss. Wir haben uns sehr gefreut, dass zum Billardtisch funktionsfähige Queues vorhanden waren – auch in Luxuriösen Objekten keine Selbstverständlichkeit und einfach ein weiterer Beleg dafür, wie fürsorglich und liebevoll die Eigentümer das Haus und ihre Gäste behandeln. Die Lage und der Außenbereich könnten nicht besser sein.Alles in allem uneingeschränkt empfehlenswert!

Great location

Lovely villa right next to the beach. Great location for restaurants, the beach , local supermarket nearby. Very helpful owners. The pool was not heated but you really don’t need heated pool in Greece in August - it was perfect temperature. Parking off road for a number of cars. But really handy taxi rank a few yards from the villa. €5 into old town. We often got a taxi there and walked back ( about 40 mins). Very relaxing chilled out place.

Exceeded expectations

Just had a wonderful week with the whole family. Villa was beautiful and furnished to a high standard. Location couldn’t have been better with many restaurants and supermarkets within a couple of minutes walk. Taxi rank outside, €5 euros to the old town & harbour. The cleaning lady was particularly helpful and came midweek and gave the place a thorough cleaning. Would recommend to anyone who’s after a relaxing time away

Modern Villa with excellent pool - very clean and good location.

Had a great week in this large villa - good location on the edge of Rethymno but still close to local restaurants and supermarkets. The pool is great with shallow child section and a good temperature too. Ample fluffy towels provided too. Villa was very clean and housekeeper lovely - very helpful. Only criticism was a couple of the shower heads were broken which meant bathrooms being shared on occasions and the terrace doors cannot be opened or closed from the outside which was inconvenient too. Other than that it was great and we would return.

Tolles Haus, nette Vermieter

Die Lage des sehr schönen Hauses ist perfekt. Das Meer vor der Tür, der eigene Schatten so nah zum Meer dass man es sieht und rauschen hört. Wir waren 12 Personen - 6 Erwachsene und 6 Kinder - und hatten reichlich Platz. Die Raumaufteilung ist sehr gut, die Zimmer sehr gut ausgestattet - tolle Matrazen und viel Stauraum. Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, das Haus wird während der Woche am Mittwoch einmal komplett gereinigt. Ein Griller steht im Garten zur Verfügung. Toller Urlaub, das Haus ist sehr empfehlenswert

Excellent property, location and service.

This was a great property for a week away with 11 people. The owners were available and helpful. The property was as displayed - big enough for our crew, a great pool, and only steps to the beach (you don't even take your shoes!). The local LIME scooters or the Taxi stand across the street made it incredibly easy to visit the old town. We rented vehicles locally and could have parked three in the driveway (this is undersold in the listing). If the dates work for you, you should rent this Villa.

Absolutely fabulous

The villa was exactly as described. Very airy, clean, roomy, comfortable and modern. We like open plan living. The pool was fantastic, very clean and just the right temperature. Less than 5 minutes and you were on the beach. Outside was a taxi rank and for 5euro you could get into the town, very handy if you wanted to pick up buses for sightseeing. Would definately recommend.
