In a beautiful unspoiled natural setting in the farthest western part of the magical island of Crete we have created in a secluded peaceful location Villa Aretousa.

Experiencing the sun melting into the sea, playing with the sky's blue and creating magnificent art pieces just in front of you eyes again and again. While enjoying the tranquillity of your villa submerged in your cool swimming pool the sense of leaving all worries behind and flowing with the magical current of unspoiled natural beauty is enhanced.
The design and the use of natural materials throughout is stunning. The villa has been built with local natural stone and round tree trunks combined with natural clay tiles which make it feel like it was always part of its surrounding landscape. The villa and pool area is not overlooked by the other villas which are located on the hillside behind villa Aretousa. Villa Aretousa's design was based on the concept of luxury, comfort, and elegance blended with functionality. Using natural earthly materials and offering a wonderful space to relax, to play and to entertain.
At the same time consideration has been given to the respect of the traditional local architecture and the harmonic integration with the surrounding natural environment.With large garden areas on the side and in front of the pool, it blends naturally with the surrounding olive groves on the small hill where it is situated.
Villa Aretousa's spacious swimming pool is simply that special highlight of the wonderful experience this accommodation generously offers. Seeing the sky blending with the sea along with the pool, makes it irresistible to jump in and enjoy a swim for yourself!

The design of the villas had two major goals, first to make a comfortable and functional space that will meet the demands of the most discerning holiday makers for beauty and comfort, and second to integrate the villas in to the existing landscape so that they do not become obtrusive in anyway but rather give the feeling that they are part of the existing landscape.
In addition special care was made for the design of the outdoor spaces, with comfortable niches for entertaining or chilling out, for sunbathing or reading.
And to enhance all this we have carefully implemented our designs for grass and garden spaces, adding color and vitality to the whole setting.
And to top of the experience, our villas are positioned on a slightly slopping hill, amongst olive trees and facing straight west, enjoying magnificent sea views and the most extraordinary sunsets. A marvelous show just in front of you.
Each of our villas is absolute private and has its own private swimming pool, designed to be enjoyed while marvelling at the amassing sea views. The impression created, while in our pools, that the pool and sea are mingling together is a very special effect of our design considerations.
All in all Keramoti Villas is an amazing place to enjoy the most memorable holidays with your loved ones.
