Villa Mayeia has been distinguished with the 2024 Tourism Awards Bronze for Design Villa of the Year
Tucked into the southern coastal landscape of the island, Mayeia Villas provide a serene retreat for recharging in Crete. These impressive holiday villas are situated in the area of Plakias, in a beneficial location, just minutes away from the homonymous long sandy beach (just 250 meters) as well as all kinds of daily amenities, so our guests can enjoy a car-free holiday.
Mayeia Villas consists of two buildings: one featuring 3 bedrooms and another with 2 bedrooms, available for rent separately or together. This listing is specifically for the 3-bedroom building. Please note that, when booked separately, the villas share the same entrance and parking area. Otherwise, each villa is completely autonomous.
The villa is designed to accommodate up to 8 guests and the interior covers 150 sq.m.. Each one of the 3 en-suite bedrooms is a minimalist haven from the harsh sun with a clean aesthetic featuring a king-size double bed (1,60 X 2,00) equipped with high-quality DUNLOPILLO mattress and pillows, suitcase stand, open wardrobe, 32 TV, A/C and en-suite bathroom consisted of a shower cabin, washing basin, and toilet.

Furthermore, the careful selection of earthly colours, natural materials, branded furniture (Flos, Baxter, Classicon, al2, Talenti, Davide Groppi, Paola Lenti, Nemo lighs), minimal design and bohemian chic decoration of Villa Mayeia offer its guests a sense of luxury, harmony and tranquility while its clean lines create a contemporary silhouette.
