Basil Leaf
Basil Leaf is an exceptional, newly-built retreat that harmoniously blends modern architecture with the serene beauty of nature. Located in the picturesque village of Gonia, Basil Leaf features a spacious, open-plan living and dining area. Large windows flood the interior with natural light, offering calming, unobstructed views of the lush landscape that surrounds it. This sun-drenched apartment provides the perfect combination of coziness and tranquility. It features a bright, airy bedroom designed for relaxation and a radiant living room bathed in natural light. The kitchen is fully equipped and includes a stylish breakfast bar, perfect for enjoying your meals against the backdrop of nature. The minimal bathroom features a sleek walk-in shower for a rejuvenating experience. The highlight of the residence? The balcony! Unwind with endless views of the verdant scenery and majestic mountains — the ultimate spot to soak in the beauty of the outdoors.
My name is Elefteria Apostolaki, and I grew up right here in the picturesque village of Gonia, just a few kilometers outside the center of Rethymno. My deep love for this place and my passion for authentic hospitality inspired me to create Basil Leaf. It would be my absolute pleasure to welcome you and share the serenity and beauty of my home village with you.
Everything you need is just a short, pleasant stroll away: Daily Essentials: Within walking distance, you will find a supermarket for your supplies, a traditional tavern for authentic flavors, and cozy cafés. Activities for Everyone: The area features a local playground for children and a basketball court for sports enthusiasts. Nature & Exploration: If you love hiking, the location is ideal. We highly recommend the walking path leading to the charming Chapel of Mikri Panagia, a scenic route offering tranquility and beautiful views. Easy City Access to Rethymno City: For those wanting to visit the city center, a nearby bus stop with frequent service ensures quick and easy transportation, making a car unnecessary.
