Four private villas, one family, one host.
Amazing Villas in Crete is a small, family-run collection of four private villas near Rethymno. Villa Asteri, Villa Kitron and Villa Myrrini stand close together in Asteri Village; Villa Argiris is 2.6 km away in Stavromenos, 800 m from the nearest beach. Each villa has its own private pool and sleeps 6 to 8 guests. The three villas in Asteri can be booked together as MAZI for up to 20 guests.
Every villa is booked on its own, with its own pool, kitchen and outdoor space. Tap a villa to see every room, its bathroom and the practical details.

Villa Asteri, Villa Kitron and Villa Myrrini stand close together in Asteri Village: Kitron is next to Asteri, and Myrrini is approximately 90 metres from Asteri. Booked together, they are MAZI, for up to 20 guests. Villa Argiris is not part of MAZI. For groups of more than 20, it can be added in a separate booking, but it is in a different location: Stavromenos, 2.6 km away by road.
Every household keeps its own villa, kitchen, pool and privacy. It is not one shared house, a resort or an event venue.
“Beautiful villa which suited our family perfectly. … Argyris was really good too – he always responded quickly to questions and even left us a delicious cake for our birthdays!!”
“Argyris is an extremely patient person. He waited for us at check-in and explained everything we needed to know.”
“It really felt like a home rather than just a rental. … One of the best Airbnb experiences we’ve had, and we’ve had a lot.”
“We were a group of seven friends (4 families), it was perfect for us. The pool was a dream and we ate most meals in the outside upper area, BBQ’s and Pizza nights, lots of Greek salad.”
These reviews are from guests who stayed with us, taken from Airbnb and Google and shown exactly as they were written. We do not write, edit or pay for reviews. We chose these; you can read them all on each villa’s Airbnb listing and on our Google listing.
Argyris Skordilis is the owner of Amazing Villas in Crete and the person you talk to before and during your stay. He knows every room, every step and every pool, and can tell you honestly which villa fits your group, or whether another one would suit you better.
Hosted by the owner, not a management company. Guests remember the details: a birthday cake left for them, wood fetched for the wood-fired oven, a taxi arranged at the last minute, a personal welcome at check-in.
Both are east of Rethymno on Crete’s north coast, 2.6 km apart by road (around 4 minutes by car). Heraklion Airport is about an hour away, Chania Airport about 75 minutes.
A quiet inland village, about 3 km from the nearest beach and 12 km from Rethymno. Tavernas within walking distance. Asteri Village guide →
Near the coast, about 800 m from the nearest beach and 11 km from Rethymno, with shops and restaurants close by. Stavromenos guide →
Four private villas near Rethymno, Crete: Villa Asteri, Villa Kitron and Villa Myrrini in Asteri Village, and Villa Argiris in Stavromenos, about 2.6 km away.
Villa Asteri and Villa Argiris host up to 8 guests each; Villa Kitron and Villa Myrrini up to 6 each.
Villa Asteri (approx. 5 m², 0.50 m deep) and Villa Myrrini (small, 0.50 m deep). No pool is separately fenced, so children must be supervised by an adult at all times.

At Villa Argiris all bedrooms and living spaces are on one ground-floor level, with two steps at the entrance. At Villa Myrrini the bedrooms are on one level, but there are 17 steps from the parking to the front door. Villa Asteri and Villa Kitron have two floors.
Yes. Asteri, Kitron and Myrrini can be booked together as MAZI for up to 20 guests, all in Asteri Village. For groups of more than 20, Villa Argiris can be added in a separate booking, but it is in a different location, Stavromenos, 2.6 km away.
Yes. All four villas are open all year round. Each has air conditioning with heating and a wood-burning fireplace.
A car is the easiest way to reach beaches, Rethymno and day trips, and Argyris can help with car hire and transfers. It is not essential: in Asteri Village the KTEL bus to Stavromenos and Rethymno town stops outside the villas and taxis can be booked, and Villa Argiris is about 800 m from the beach with shops close by.
Argyris Skordilis, the owner, answers messages himself before and during your stay, on WhatsApp, by phone or by email.
Tell Argyris your dates, how many you are and what matters most. He will confirm availability and suggest the villa, or the combination, that fits your group.
