Monthly Rentals in Thronos

A second visit- we loved it so much, this time came earlier, at Equinox in March, and I stayed on my own, leaving in late April. I could have stayed another month. It was incredible to watch the spring season unfold, and the village come alive, with the spring horta harvests and village gatherings, preparations for Easter and to be there during the Orthodox Holy Week when the families gather was deeply moving. The landscape is stunning, olive groves shimmer w/ silver growth, the baby lambs arrive, bright green meadows fill with wildflowers and so many orchids! The location is central to all the key places you'd want to visit, and coming 'home' to an authentic villa, almost a folk museum itself, yet utterly modern, was such a privilege. The villa is so comfortable and decor lovely, with 3 great decks, and so much support from Manolis as host, and Rumy as caretaker and fine chef. Mount Ida is in constant view, everchanging, it is truly a magical, powerful land. Thank you so much.

Fantastic old traditional house, well preserved and carefully modernized. Kind hosts eager to assist and give recommendations of nice nearby places to visit. Amazing view of the valley.

The house is truly something special. The interior and design of the house is super tasteful and combines traditional Crete with modern elements. Everything in the house was spotless and brand-new. The view from the terrace was breathtaking and the courtyard was very cosy. We can only recommend this gem of house at Crete. The location is a little remote but perfect to relax and enjoy Crete off the beaten paths. We hope we will come back. Also the village where the house is located is so picturesque. Amazing local tavern with great authentic food are in walking distance.

I did enjoy the stay so much. The village is nice located and very silent with a little restaurant. You can reach a lot of beaches or trekking destination easy. Gina herself is e very friendly and interesting person. I loved to stay there with her cats and dogs. I was very Impressed of her engagement for the animals help on Crete. I will come back.
