About this property

A home now available to rent in Maleme, Chania, with open views to the sea. The layout provides about 220 m² of living space and four bedrooms. It is offered furnished. Open-air spaces include garden and swimming pool.

Among the practical comforts are fireplace and air conditioning. Practical extras include parking, storage room and garage. The position captures the sea views that make this coastline so sought after. The water's edge is literally steps away.

Remote working is well supported, with fibre connections reaching most of the area and cafés happy to host a laptop for a morning. Mornings here start slowly — a bakery run, a coffee at the local square — while evenings belong to long dinners outdoors for most of the year. For families, the area offers schools, playgrounds and a safe, community-minded environment where neighbours still know each other. About the area: Chania is widely considered the most beautiful prefecture of Crete, famous for its Venetian harbour town, exotic beaches such as Balos, Elafonissi and Falassarna, and the dramatic White Mountains.

The area enjoys a long season from April to November, an international airport with direct flights across Europe, and a well-established market for holiday rentals. Life in the Chania countryside moves at the unhurried pace of olive groves and village kafeneia, yet the city's restaurants, schools and hospital are within easy reach. The old town of Chania, with its lighthouse and harbour front, is one of the most photographed spots in the Mediterranean. The south coast of the prefecture hides some of the most unspoilt beaches in Greece, reachable through gorges and coastal paths.
