Villa Ilios is a designer villa with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, all situated on the ground floor, built on a plot of 435 sq.m. It is part of a complex of three independent luxury villas. The villa is almost brand new, as it was delivered in 2019, and it shows! It is a unique opportunity to obtain a new, modern villa, without having to wait for its construction.



Indoors



All rooms in the villa have sea views on the bay of Plakias, looking out to the infinity swimming pool. The spacious master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, while the remaining two bedrooms share a bathroom. There is also an additional guest WC. A nicely planted patio at the back of the villa provides extra daylight.



The fully equipped kitchen, dining room, and living room are shared in a cosy open space overlooking the spacious terrace and the view.



Outdoors



The sundeck next to the infinity pool is a great place for all-day relaxation, while the sunken lounge area with the exterior kitchen is an eye-catcher that you and your guests will enjoy tremendously. On the terrace, you will also find an exterior shower, while you can park your car in the concrete parking area within the premises of the plot



Rental



South Crete is one of the most suitable areas if you are looking to gain some serious extra return on your investment, with a rental season that starts in early April and lasts until the beginning of November. For this villa, maintenance and rentals are managed by a professional property and rental management organisation, that provides all necessary services in order to ensure that the villa can be used and rented out without any hassle by the owner.



Location



In the north of the province, you will find Rethymnon; a beautiful port town situated exactly between the two airports of Heraklion and Chania. About half an hour’s drive south lies the village of Mariou. This is a typical Cretan village, with whitewashed houses. Mariou is less than a 5 minutes drive from the seaside resort of Plakias and 15 minutes from the palm beach of Preveli. Plakias has dozens of restaurants, cafes, shops, supermarkets, beach bars, and of course the famous 1.3 km wide sandy beach, which can be reached within a 4-minute drive. In the immediate vicinity, there are countless other beautiful, quiet bays and beaches, such as Damnoni, Souda, Ammoudi, and Ammoudaki.



The nearest larger town is Rethymnon, a half-hour drive. Mariou can be reached from the airport of Heraklion and from the airport of Chania within 1.5 hours.
