✨Villa Elli has been distinguished with the 2025 Traveller Review Award from Booking.com✨
Surrounded by lush landscaped gardens, colorful flowers, olive trees, and atmospheric outdoor spaces, Villa Elli has been carefully redesigned to offer a boutique-style hospitality experience with a strong focus on comfort, privacy, design, and outdoor living.
Inside, the villa features four elegant bedrooms, each equipped with en suite bathrooms, premium multi-layer sleep systems, and high-quality hypoallergenic bedding designed to provide a deeply restful and restorative sleep experience. The contemporary living spaces combine designer furniture, curated lighting, and modern entertainment amenities, creating a warm and sophisticated atmosphere throughout the villa.
Outdoor living lies at the heart of the Villa Elli experience. Guests can enjoy the main swimming pool surrounded by lush gardens and designer sun loungers, as well as a private plunge pool connected to the Terrace Bedroom, offering moments of complete privacy and relaxation.
The fully equipped outdoor kitchen and dining area invites guests to embrace the Mediterranean lifestyle through open-air cooking and long summer dinners beside the pool. Beautiful lounge areas, atmospheric garden corners, and a unique outdoor cinema with projector create unforgettable evenings under the Cretan sky, while the villa’s carefully landscaped gardens offer peaceful spaces for relaxation throughout the property.
Adding a truly authentic touch to the experience, Mrs. Elli — who lives nearby — occasionally shares seasonal treats, fruits, vegetables, and herbs from her organic garden, offering guests a warm glimpse into genuine Cretan hospitality and local living.
Just a short drive from the beaches and the vibrant town of Rethymno, Villa Elli is ideally positioned for guests seeking both tranquility and easy access to some of Crete’s most beautiful destinations.
