Villa Artemis, Elounda

Villa Artemis is a private villa in Elounda, Greece, located at Plaka 1, where mountain and sea scenery sets the tone from the moment you arrive. The setting suits travelers who want quiet time outdoors, with a terrace and garden for slow mornings and evenings after a day on the coast. It’s also a practical base for active holidays: the area is good for hiking and for fishing along the shoreline, and you can return to air conditioning when the day heats up. WiFi is available throughout your stay, so it’s easier to plan routes or keep in touch without relying on mobile data.

Guests who have stayed here (an 8.7/10 guest rating from three reviews) tend to appreciate the calm atmosphere and the sense of space, with people highlighting how the outdoor areas make the villa feel like more than just a place to sleep. One common theme is that the villa works well for small groups and families who prefer having their own rhythm, especially when meals can be handled at home.

For day trips, Spinalonga Fortress is about 3 km away, a short drive that’s often paired with a boat excursion from the Elounda/Spinalonga area. Plaka Beach is roughly 1 km from Villa Artemis, making it easy to spend the morning swimming and the afternoon exploring nearby viewpoints along the Elounda coastline. If you’re looking for a comfortable, self-directed stay with outdoor living and easy access to both beach and heritage, Villa Artemis fits best for couples and families who value privacy and flexibility.
