The Village

Maroulas is a quiet village situated on the heights above Rethymno, Crete, facing the sea at an altitude of 150 metres and surrounded by greenery, a spring and several valleys.

In 1980, Maroulas was listed for its historical monuments but also for some of its houses including Villa Maroulas.

Amongst its rich historical heritage, visitors can discover important remains of ancient tombstones dating back to antiquity, two wonderful Venetian towers one of which is 44 meters high, a Byzantine church dedicated to the Ascension, a more recent church dedicated to the Virgin Mary, and lastly a small chapel with iconostasis which adorns the small village square.

Its high position facing the sea and its narrow lanes without any main square make Maroulas a typical example of the kind of fortifications built at old time.

Our Clients

I spent some wonderful few days at Villa Taleme. Léo is a very welcoming host, and the villa is very comfortable. The village and the house are perfect places for an off-the-beaten-path retreat.

We were completely delighted with the holiday we spent at Villa Taleme. I would like to express my deep gratitude to the owner of the villa Leo, he is a great person, he was always ready to help us with solving any issues. He organized a transfer for us from the airport and then helped us to rent a car on the spot.
The villa is located in the beautiful and quiet town of Maroulas, there is parking, and a good restaurants nearby. The view from the windows of the villa is impressive. Isolat from neighbors. Excellent accessibility to all attractions on the western part of the island.
The villa is very comfortable, bright and spacious. The interior is stylish, everything is new and everything you need is there. The kitchen-living room is very functional and wide, has everything you need, including a dishwasher, refrigerator, coffee machine, oven and stove. On each floor there is one bedroom with a double bed and bathrooms. Sleeping area with good sound insulation. No sounds bothered us.
Cleaning is done regularly.
The villa has two large terraces on each floor. The terraces are decorated with exotic plants and equipped for comfortable relaxation.
The holiday exceeded all our expectations. We’ll be happy to come back again.

We were lucky enough to be the first clients of villa taleme. What a terrific surprise it was.
First of all, the village in itself. A jewel suspended in the clouds, with everything you need to enjoy. Several restaurants, a lot of narrow streets to wander and to get lost, and a lot of warm and singular inhabitants who will make your trip special.
The house per se has been wonderfully thought, the decoration and the set up are at a clever crossing between good taste and efficiency.
The terrasse on the first level is probably the best spot to relax and enjoy a delicious raki.
The beds are super comfortable, we didnt suffer from the heat thanks to the ac system. the place is quiet and we had the pleasure to wake up every single day with the orthodox priest who sings so nicely . A beautiful soundtrack of paradise.
I really recommande Villataleme, as a center place to radiate and discover Crete.
We are definitely coming back this year

Leo, the host, brings a personal touch to the experience. His local insights and warm hospitality made the stay memorable. The villa is not only fully equipped but also designed for comfort. Leo’s multilingual skills and love for the simple life create an inviting atmosphere. Whether enjoying the quiet village or exploring the nearby coast, Villa Taleme is a delightful haven in Crete.
