Villa Medusa

Villa Medusa is a beautiful recently built villa with a private swimming pool, located on the sunny south coast of Crete. This atmospheric villa accommodates up to 6 guests and combines luxury, comfort and privacy in a unique setting with stunning views over the valley and the Libyan Sea. Thanks to its smart layout, the villa is perfect for couples, families or friends looking to enjoy peace, space and relaxation together.

Inside

The main house features a cosy open kitchen, an inviting living room with panoramic views and a spacious bedroom with a king size bed and ensuite bathroom. There is also a separate toilet and a laundry room.

Through the spacious outdoor kitchen, you reach the two separate bedrooms, both equipped with a double bed, a private bathroom and separate toilet. All rooms feature air conditioning, sliding doors, mosquito screens and blackout curtains. Fresh herbs grow on the charming patio and are yours to use while cooking.

Outside

Around the private pool you will find six comfortable sun loungers where you can fully enjoy the sun and the beautiful surroundings. The spacious outdoor kitchen with large dining table is the perfect place for long breakfasts or cosy dinners on warm summer evenings. Parasols, an outdoor shower and parking facilities are also available.

Please note: Villa Medusa is less suitable for children under 12 years old. The main house has one bedroom, while the other sleeping quarters are separate and located slightly higher than the main house, accessible via a few steps.

Surroundings

From the villa, you can walk straight into the valley through the olive groves and enjoy the peace, nature and clear starry skies. The beach is only a ten minute drive away.

The authentic village of Mariou is within walking distance and offers a small local shop, a cosy grill taverna and a traditional kafenion (Greek coffee house). The lively village of Plakias is only 4 km away and offers supermarkets, restaurants, beach bars, a diving school and a long sandy beach. Or enjoy a relaxing olive oil massage and end the day with a beautiful sunset from one of the terraces or beach bars.

(08-2026) Dear Marieke & Martijn,

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at holiday home Medusa. The house is fully equipped with all amenities, and the terrace with its private pool is a little paradise in particular. Communication with Sylvia was also good. The bedroom and living room are equipped with air conditioning, which is very pleasant during warm periods. I would therefore wholeheartedly recommend this house.

We spent a wonderful week in the villa. The location is truly beautiful, on the mountain, and the view is stunning. The villa offers a lot of privacy and you feel right at home there. It is beautifully and modernly furnished with great beds and fully equipped. Definitely a place to visit again.

In July 2026, we stayed in this magnificent villa in Mariou. Its location and privacy allowed us to fully enjoy our stay. The villa is equipped with all the necessary comforts for a pleasant stay. At the summer kitchen table, we could sit comfortably in the shade and spend long hours enjoying dinner.

We had a lovely stay! The house was cozy, well-equipped, and perfect for enjoying the peace and quiet. It is only about 10 minutes to Plakias, and excursions to Rethymno, Matala, or Chania can also be undertaken. We want to highlight our contact person Sylvia – she was super friendly and gave us great tips on where to eat well. Communication and check-in were easy. Highly recommended!

Very responsive and friendly landlords. The villa is beautiful and well-equipped, with great beaches and restaurants nearby. The place is ideal for groups; it has independent studios. There are a few other villas, but our stay was very peaceful!
 
Thanks!
