My name is Jolanda Hemmes, together with my husband Erik we bought a piece of land in 2018 in Agia Marina, Chania, Crete. We have been coming to Crete for years and had a dream. Getting married on Crete and one day owning a house. In May 2015 we got married on the beach at the accommodation where we have been guests for years and where we became friends with the owners.
Two years ago we had the opportunity to buy a piece of land from these friends. After a long time of waiting for permits, they started construction in October 2017 and our dream was realized in July 2018. Villa Rebecca has become a beautiful Villa consisting of 2 floors, a beautiful balcony with mountain and sea views. The Villa is about a 5/7 minute walk from the sea and within walking distance of the supermarket, cozy shopping street and restaurants.
Who knows, you might be our next guest to enjoy our Villa!

A nice house with a nice garden, in a quiet place and only a few minutes from the beach. The house is a bit dated.
