Villa Red Sunset by Estia, Sfakaki

Villa Red Sunset by Estia is a 3-bedroom villa in Sfakaki, Greece, set in the Latzima Rethymnou area and designed for groups who want space to spread out. Check in runs from 3:00 PM to midnight, and the stay is straightforward with self parking available for a surcharge and non-smoking interiors throughout. Guests consistently rate the property 9.8/10 based on a small number of reviews, and that high score reflects practical comfort—people mention the ease of settling in and the calm, residential feel rather than a busy hotel atmosphere.

The outdoor setup is a big part of the appeal. There’s a swimming pool for unhurried afternoons, plus a terrace that works well for morning coffee or evening downtime. When the mood turns social, the BBQ facilities give you an easy way to eat outside without planning every meal around restaurants. Air conditioning helps keep indoor temperatures comfortable when the day heats up, and free wired internet plus internet access makes it workable for anyone who needs to check in online.

If you’re planning days out, Rethymno is about 11 km away, so you can reach the Old Town and Venetian harbour for history and strolling. Spilies Beach is also roughly 11 km from the villa, while Kourtaliotiko Gorge (around 43 km) suits travelers chasing dramatic landscapes and hiking. For a longer beach day, Plakias Beach is about 45 km.

Villa Red Sunset by Estia is best for families and small groups who prefer a quieter base with outdoor living, while still having Rethymno within easy driving distance.
