Eleon Residence  

In the seaside village of Stavromenos on Crete’s Rethymno coast. The guest-house/villa complex sits about 12 km from Rethymno town, roughly 1.2 miles from Skaleta Beach and 1.3 miles from nearby beaches. Heraklion International Airport is about 44 miles away and a paid airport shuttle is available.

Rooms lean warm and simple, mixing homey décor with sea and mountain views. Unit types range from guest rooms with flat-screen TVs and DVD players to villa-style suites with balconies, air conditioning, private bathrooms (some with baths), bathrobes and slippers. Many units include a fully equipped kitchen—dishwasher, oven, microwave, coffee machine, toaster and fridge—while room features vary by category.

Dive into an outdoor pool, lounge on a sun terrace, or wander the garden. There’s a BBQ area for casual cookouts, free private parking, free Wi‑Fi and a coffee shop/lounge on site. Additional practical touches include a safe-deposit box, ironing facilities, car rental service and a paid airport shuttle. Wake up to sea-breeze mornings from many balconies and terraces.

Grab morning coffee in the on-site coffee shop or keep things informal with the guest-house BBQ facilities. For more options, local eateries and beacheside spots are a short drive away.
