About this villa rental
The Space
Every detail of this modern villa has been carefully curated to provide high-end comfort, functionality, and sleek aesthetics across two bright, fully air-conditioned levels:
Ground Floor: Living & Dining The ground level welcomes you with a sleek, sun-drenched living room featuring a plush sofa, a large smart TV, and elegant minimalist decor--an ideal space for winding down after a day of sightseeing. Flowing seamlessly from the living area is the fully equipped, ultra-modern kitchen, which beautifully blends white cabinetry with warm wooden accents. It comes complete with a large refrigerator and freezer, an integrated oven, a sleek stovetop, a premium coffee maker, and a comprehensive set of high-quality cookware, dishes, and silverware. A stylish dining table sits adjacent, ready for home-cooked meals, while a chic, convenient guest WC serves this level.
Upper Floor: The Rest Zone Upstairs, the villa transitions into a zone of pure relaxation. The master bedroom features a spacious double bed dressed in premium linens, minimalist nightstands, and soft ambient lighting. The second bedroom is perfectly appointed with two cozy single beds, making it ideal for children or friends. And as a plus it can be easily converted to a double bed in order to host another couple. Both bedrooms offer top-tier mattresses, extra pillows, and independent climate control. They share a state-of-the-art, sparkling clean main bathroom boasting a walk-in glass shower and earth-toned wooden tiling that creates a luxurious, spa-like atmosphere.
Outdoor Living: Your Private Paradise The exterior is designed for the ultimate Mediterranean indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Step out to your private swimming pool to dive into refreshing waters or soak up the sun on premium lounge chairs. The beautifully manicured lawn and garden offer a peaceful, green escape lined with local plants and a charming bench for your morning coffee. Upstairs, a secluded balcony shaded by a wooden pergola features comfortable deck chairs, offering lovely views of the surrounding landscape and a refreshing evening breeze.

The Location: Why Atsipopoulo is the Ultimate Choice
What truly elevates your stay at Villa Anasalida is the unique character and peerless geographical advantage of Atsipopoulo. It is widely considered one of the most desirable locations in the Rethymno region for several reasons:
o Authentic Village Charm with Modern Amenities: Unlike generic tourist resorts, Atsipopoulo is a historic, living Cretan village famous for its traditional Venetian arches, cobblestone alleys, and rich heritage. Living here gives you a taste of authentic local life. Best of all, a short 5-minute walk from the villa brings you right into the bustling village center. You can leave your car behind and easily walk to excellent traditional tavernas, cozy cafes, well-stocked supermarkets, local bakeries, and pharmacies.
o The Perfect Balance of Peace and Proximity: The villa is tucked away in a quiet, private spot where your peace and quiet are fully guaranteed. Yet, you are never isolated. The historical Old Town of Rethymno, with its majestic Fortezza fortress, romantic Venetian harbor, lively nightlife, and endless sandy beaches, is just a 7-to-10 minute drive away. You get the quiet nights of a village and the vibrant days of the city.
o Effortless Island Travel & Airport Access: For travelers who want to explore Crete without getting stuck in urban traffic, Atsipopoulo is unbeatable. The villa sits exceptionally close to the National Road (highway) intersection. This means you can drive out and immediately head east or west without navigating through Rethymnos busy city center.
o The Airport Gateway: Traveling to and from the villa is completely stress-free. The highway connects you directly to both of Cretes international airports. Chania Airport (CHQ) is an easy, scenic 60-minute drive to the west, while Heraklion Airport (HER) is just over an hours drive to the east. Whether you want to sunbathe on the exotic beaches of Balos and Elafonisi, hike the Samaria Gorge, or visit the Palace of Knossos, you are perfectly positioned to do it all.
