About this property

Villa Deleni - Private Pool, Sea Views & Gardens


  • Villa Deleni is a modern and beautifully maintained 4-bedroom villa designed for guests seeking privacy, comfort, and a close connection to nature. Set among olive groves and Mediterranean gardens, it offers a peaceful retreat where elegant interiors meet relaxed outdoor living, ideal for families and groups of up to 8 guests.


    Just minutes from beautiful beaches and a short drive from the historic town of Rethymno, Villa Deleni offers the perfect balance of tranquillity, convenience, and authentic Cretan hospitality.


    Guests can fully immerse themselves in the outdoors, enjoying expansive green spaces, shaded seating areas, and a dedicated BBQ area for relaxed al fresco dining under the Cretan sky.


    Villa Deleni is one of two sister villas known as Villas Davis, owned by the Davis family. The second villa, Villa Danna, accommodates up to 10 guests. Both villas are fully independent, each with private grounds and a private swimming pool, while being located next to one another. This makes them ideal for extended families, large groups, retreats, or special celebrations, allowing guests to stay close while enjoying complete privacy.

    Villa Deleni comfortably accommodates up to 8 guests.


    4 bedrooms (1 master bedroom with en-suite bathroom + 3 additional bedrooms)
    3 bathrooms in total
    180 m² of indoor living space
    Spacious terraces and balconies with sea, mountain, and garden views


    The villa offers 180 sq. metres of stylish living space, set within 4,000 sq. metres of private Mediterranean gardens filled with olive trees, citrus trees, aromatic herbs, and colourful native flowers.


    Large windows and spacious terraces invite natural light and frame beautiful views of the sea, mountains, and gardens, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.


    The open-plan living room, dining area, and fully equipped kitchen provide a welcoming space for shared moments, while the outdoor terrace is perfect for sunset dinners overlooking the landscape.


    Bedrooms & Bathrooms


    It features three double bedrooms and one twin bedroom. The master bedroom includes a private en-suite bathroom, and the villa offers a total of three bathrooms, one of which includes a bathtub.


    All bedrooms and the main living area are fully air-conditioned, ensuring comfort throughout the year.


    Outdoor Living


    The outdoor spaces are one of the highlights of Villa Deleni.


    Surrounded by mature olive trees, orange and lemon trees, ancient carob trees, and fragrant herbs such as rosemary, thyme, oregano, and lavender, the gardens create a peaceful and naturally scented environment.


    Guests can relax by the private swimming pool, enjoy shaded seating areas, or gather around the stone-built BBQ for outdoor meals with family and friends.


    As evening falls, the terraces become the perfect place to enjoy unforgettable sunsets over the sea while listening to the sounds of nature.


    Experience Authentic Crete


    Villa Deleni offers more than just accommodation, it offers a true connection to Cretan life.


    Depending on the season, guests may enjoy unique experiences such as:


    Walking through the private olive grove with centuries-old olive trees
    Harvesting fresh herbs, lemons, pomegranates, and seasonal produce from the garden
    Participating in the olive harvest and traditional olive oil production (October–November)
    Planting an olive tree as a personal memory of their stay
    Enjoying an outdoor garden cinema under the stars (on request)
    Joining a Mediterranean cooking experience with the hosts


    These experiences create a stay that is personal, memorable, and deeply connected to the traditions of Crete.
