The Artemis Home, pure rustic romance, By ThinkVilla, Astérion Overview
The Artemis Home, pure rustic romance, By ThinkVilla is located in Astérion, Greece. Rated 9.4 out of 10 based on 7 guest reviews.
The Artemis Home, pure rustic romance, By ThinkVilla is a countryside villa stay in Astérion (Asteri), Rethymno, Greece, designed for guests who want privacy without giving up easy access to the coast. The address is in Asteri, near the Rethymno region, so you’ll feel the quieter, rural rhythm while still being able to drive into town for evenings. It’s a strong fit for couples seeking romance, but it also works for families and pet owners because children are welcome and pets are allowed. Guests rate the property 9.4/10 based on a small set of reviews, and the comments tend to focus on the calm setting and the home-like atmosphere rather than a “hotel” feel. One returning theme is how practical the stay is for road-trip travelers: free parking is available, and car hire can be arranged, which makes it easier to hop between beaches and sights.
Inside, air conditioning helps you stay comfortable, and the outdoor spaces are where the villa really earns its keep. There’s a swimming pool for slow afternoons, a terrace for meals and downtime, and BBQ facilities for simple, self-catered evenings. For day trips, the Fortezza of Rethymno is about 10 km away, Platanes Beach is roughly 8 km from the villa, and Rethymno Old Town sits around 10 km in the other direction. If you’re looking for a peaceful base with practical logistics—especially for families or travelers bringing a car—The Artemis Home is the kind of place that suits a longer, more relaxed itinerary.
