Crete Melidoni, villa with pool and sea view
Villa Aphrodite is one of 3 properties in a 3 villa development, situated at the top of a charming traditional village, offering an immediate, hassle-free opportunity to use either as a holiday villa or as a year-round home.
This newly built house with dramatic views across the gorge to the White Mountains and sea views towards Rethymno has been designed to fit perfectly into the traditional village and rural landscape. It has its own character and has beautiful private outdoor areas and a private swimming pool. As it is already successfully rented out, it is also a wonderful solution for several families/friends who want to live close to each other in combination with the neighboring Asteria Villa.
