Villa Pnoi – Modern aesthetics in traditional stone, overlooking the north coast of Rethymno. Villa Pnoi is a unique accommodation in the traditional settlement of Maroulas in Rethymno, which uniquely combines modern design with traditional Cretan stone.

Inside, however, the villa unfolds a modern, elegant and functional space, with simple lines, natural materials and every modern comfort, creating a highly aesthetic accommodation experience. The villa took its name, “Pnoi”, from the purity of the air that you breathe as soon as you arrive at its location. From its terrace, the unobstructed view of the sea and the open landscape fills you with a sense of freedom, peace and true connection with nature.
