Athena Elea is a brand new luxurious villa, built using our family's old stone warehouse as a basis. It carefully blends traditional elements with modern aesthetics and comfort. The villa promises to be the perfect place for relaxing, exploring, and getting a taste of real Cretan life.
The interior of Athena Elea includes 3 double bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a living room/dining room, and a kitchen. Throughout the villa's space, modern style meets selected elements of the family's tradition, including wooden hand-crafted furniture and century-old textiles made by our own great-grandmothers. The villa's 1600 sqm plot features millennium-old olive trees, a swimming pool (40 sqm), and plenty of space for relaxation and family activities. A unique feature next to the villa is a small renovated shrine, built by the owner’s grandmother in the mid-20th century. Right next to the villa’s plot, we maintain a 4500 sqm organic orchard, in which the guests are welcome to take walks and explore seasonal fruit trees and vegetables.
Agia village in Chania includes the artificial homonymous lake and is located just 9 km from the city of Chania. It is a small lake of 450 acres, connected to ITS south with the valley of Fassa. This valley is considered to be the lushest one on Crete. The area receives water from underground springs and the river Xekolomeno. The development of the Lake was initiated by the Public Power Corporation for the production of hydropower energy. Lake Agia hosts a large variety of species of flora and fauna of Crete. It is also the refuge for many migratory birds, therefore, a spot of great ecological importance.
Situated in the most western part of Crete island, Chania is considered among the most picturesque cities of the island due to its beautiful architecture. It is a crossroad of many civilizations that have left their trails on the island. Chania has truly amazing places to visit, from secret villages and fabulous beaches to interesting historical sights. The most impressive beaches are Balos, Elafonissi and Falassarna, while there are innumerable other amazing beaches around its coastline, from organized resorts to totally secluded coves.

We had such a lovely stay at Apostolos’ villa - not only was it clean and well-located, it was also beautiful and a great place to relax. Apostolos was a fantastic host and welcomed us in person with a tour of the orchard connected to the villa as well as local Cretan products. Overall, we had a great time and would definitely stay here again if we are back in Chania.
Beautiful villa, very chic and elegant, run by a great host
We had a fabulous holiday at Athena. The villa is spacious and has a lovely pool which we all enjoyed and at times was a great place to refresh and cool down. The villa is well furnished and Apostolos has made great efforts to make sure it has everything you might need. Apostolos was a very kind host and had left us with snacks, home made local food and wine on arrival - very kind. The villa is a 20 mins easy drive from Chania (a bit further from the airport) but is well located to access beaches, vineyards, gorges etc. Agia lake is also a short walk and there are two restaurants there which we can recommend and have very friendly staff and great service.
A stunning villa where modern meets rustic Crete. Apostolos was always on hand to cover any questions, assistance on booking taxis and restaurant recommendations. Athina is a beautiful villa with a stunning orchard that we could pick fresh fruit and veg whenever we wanted. I would not hesitate in booking Athina again if we ever visited Crete.
The villa Athena Elea is the perfect Airbnb. Our highlights are - definitely the big orchard directly behind the houses’ garden with fresh fruit & veggies to pick for breakfast or dinner - The big Swimmingpool and enough space in the garden for everyone to play games or lay on the sunbed - Supermarket just around the corner - Well equipped kitchen and also the option to use the outdoor kitchen, the bbq and pizza oven - Very safe feeling Apostolos deserves the titel superhost for sure - he gave us a very warm welcome, showing us around the garden and even explaining some of the plants / trees and the background story of the villa. The cheese spinach pies & wine bottles were very generous welcome presents. He always had tips for us where to go for dinner or how to order a taxi.
