Selia Residence

Dream Villa in South Rethymo
Nestled on the ridge of the hill in Selia Village, South Rethymno, Selia Residence offers a spectacular sea view while remaining almost entirely hidden from sight. This luxury villa in South Crete gazes directly out to the sea and the sunset over the nearby coastline, making it one of the best villas in South Rethymno with a sea view.

Luxury and Comfort

The residence embodies the essence of slow, laid-back summer living, fostering mindful connections with family, friends, and the tranquility of nature. Designed for luxury and comfort, it prioritizes emotional experience over function, with every space offering an opportunity for rest, reflection, and exploration. Ideal for those seeking luxury villas in South Rethymno with stunning sea views.
Inspired by the humble complexity of traditional island architecture, the residence features two small, whitewashed volumes and a third built from stone excavated on-site. These structures are arranged around a large ‘courtyard’ living area, covered by an expansive yet lightweight chestnut pergola. Experience the best of South Crete villa rentals here.

Feel the relax and calm

A 6-bedroom holiday home crafted for a young, dynamic couple to enjoy with family and friends, Selia Residence celebrates its breathtaking view from a grounded perspective, integrated into a sensitively landscaped, stone-walled garden that provides privacy from the road behind. If you’re looking for villas in Crete with sea views, this is the perfect choice.

Design

This courtyard serves as the heart of the residence, seamlessly connected to the living room and kitchen areas, and overlooking the pool and gardens beyond. Selia Residence is the ultimate destination for luxury vacations in South Crete.
Below the pool garden are the private bedrooms, each enjoying an uninterrupted view of the sea over the lower garden. Their separation ensures privacy and clearly divides social and private spaces. For those seeking privacy and luxury in South Rethymno villas, this residence is unparalleled.
Key to the residence’s character is the use of traditional materials such as lime-wash, stone, and wood, applied with contemporary techniques to create architecture that bridges heritage and modernity.

Hand-built stone walls are confidently sharp; traditionally rendered, round-edged volumes are perfectly smooth and flat. The customary chestnut pergola is engineered for structural integrity, forming a glue-lam beam lattice that lightly rests on the white volumes, shading and protecting the extensive courtyard beneath.

The simple white volumes, straight stone walls, and light pergola planes blend harmoniously with the Cretan landscape. The efficient layout, centered around the courtyard living space, streamlines daily life. Selia Residence draws from humble Cretan tradition, enriched by natural materials and inspired by contemporary summer living. This is the perfect choice for your next villa rental in South Rethymno, Crete..
