Casa Sofia Cottage House, By Hellocrete

Take time to relax in a peaceful environment among the Cretan mountains and the clear blue sky. Casa Sofia is located in the heart of the traditional mountain village of Spili, offering you the warmth, authenticity, and serenity you need for an unforgettable stay.



Casa Sofia consists of two independent apartments — one on the ground floor and one on the first floor. They are not connected internally; access to the upper apartment is available only via an external staircase.



Enjoy the beautiful panoramic views from the rooftop terrace, where you’ll find a Jacuzzi — perfect for romantic moments — and a barbecue area ideal for gatherings with family or friends. You can also unwind by the private plunge pool in the backyard, surrounded by sunbeds, local flowers, herbs, and vegetables, while soaking up the Cretan sun.



Casa Sofia offers all the comforts of a real home. Inside the ground-floor apartment, you’ll find two double bedrooms, each with a private en-suite bathroom, along with a small kitchenette and a cozy sitting area.



In the first-floor apartment, there is one double bedroom and one bedroom with a bunk bed and a single bed, as well as a shared bathroom and an additional WC. The spacious living room invites you to relax by the fireplace, and the fully equipped kitchen is perfect for preparing family meals. Step out onto the balcony with your morning coffee or evening wine and take in the peaceful village atmosphere.



Please note that the swimming pool is not heated, so the water temperature depends on weather conditions. Guests have full private access to all areas of the house, both indoors and outdoors.



Heating is provided via the air conditioning system, and firewood for the fireplace is available at an additional cost of €10 per bucket.



Spili is a charming mountain village (altitude of 430m) nestled at the foot of Mount Vorizis, an offshoot of Kedros Mount. Spili is famous for its Venetian “Kefalovrissi” fountain with 19 lion heads providing crystal-clear mountain water. In the village center, you’ll find traditional taverns serving authentic Cretan cuisine, cafés, and local shops, as well as supermarkets and other essential amenities — all within walking distance.



Casa Sofia is ideally located in southern Rethymno, on the main road to Agia Galini:

- Rethymno city: 30 km (about 35 minutes by car).

- Beaches of the south coast: just 20 minutes away.

From here, you can easily explore Crete’s natural beauty, including Plakias, Agia Galini, Triopetra, Kourtaliotiko Gorge, and Preveli Beach.



There is a small public parking area next to the house, as well as a larger village parking area located about 180 meters away. For exploring Crete’s beautiful landscapes and beaches, a car is highly recommended.



Casa Sofia welcomes guests year-round, offering a cozy and comfortable retreat in every season — whether you visit in summer, winter, spring, or autumn, your stay under the Cretan sky will be truly unforgettable.
