About this property

Vigdini Traditional House with hot tub in Karoti village

The house is an 85 sq. m, freshly restored house. Its location is in the heart of Karoti Village.

The main entrance of the property leads you to the interior yard. On your right, you see the building that used to be the owner's grandmother's residence and is no longer accessible. A staircase (no railing) on the left leads you to the patio and to the main residence's door.

Now you are in the fully equipped kitchen and see the dining table and the sofa. Two large handcrafted wooden doors open to the bedrooms. Both are open-plan bedrooms on two levels with beds on both levels. The lower floor and the upper loft area are connected by stairs, maintaining an airy, wall-free design.

Bedroom 1 has a window with a view of the patio, and bedroom 2 has a private balcony and exit to the street. The balcony has an outstanding mountain view. There, you can enjoy your morning coffee until the rest of your company wakes up.

The patio is spacious and includes a surprise for you: a jacuzzi for 5 people is available. There are sun loungers and a large dining table.

Why they chose this property

Karoti is a hidden gem in the heart of Crete, a picturesque, traditional village of just 150 residents, perfectly positioned between the historic towns of Rethymno (15 km) and Chania (50 km). It offers the quintessential Cretan lifestyle—quiet, slow-paced, and deeply welcoming—while being only 2.5 km away from the sandy shores of Episkopi and Petres beaches.

In the nearest town of Rethymno, you should definitely walk in the streets of the Old Town, where the old houses with the Venetian doors and the minarets will take you on a journey through time. A plethora of restaurants, cafes, and shops are waiting for you to explore them. At the edge of the old town, you can visit Fortezza Castle, where you can enjoy the spectacular view. A stop at the Archaeological Museum and the Folklore Museum of Rethymno will complete your visit.

Life in Karoti is defined by its charming simplicity. The village features two traditional cafes and a local tavern that offers a truly personalized and traditional culinary experience: simply arrange your meal with the owner in the morning, and enjoy a tailor-made dinner later that day.

Experience the romance of village life as local vendors pass through the streets; listen for the loudspeakers of the artisanal bread van each morning, or source fresh, seasonal produce and daily catches from the visiting vegetable merchants. For further amenities, the vibrant village of Episkopi is just a scenic 15-minute countryside walk (1 km) away, offering a wider taste of local life.

What makes this property unique

Welcome to Vigdini's House, a beautifully renovated family home in the heart of Karoti. Filled with the owner’s childhood memories and decorated with generations of family artifacts, this house offers a unique 'time-travel' experience. Though it retains its traditional Cretan identity, it is fully equipped with modern conveniences to provide a comfortable, high-standard stay. Step into history without sacrificing the comforts of today.
