Villa Andromeda Exterior

Villa Andromeda is an authentic 19th-century neoclassical mansion, built in 1870 as the summer residence of Mehmet Reuf Pasha. It later housed the English Consulate and subsequently the German Consulate during the Cretan State, preserving to this day its historical character and aristocratic identity.

Located in the charming district of Halepa, in a privileged seafront setting, the villa stands next to the Archaeological Museum of Chania and within walking distance of the Eleftherios Venizelos Foundation. A scenic seaside promenade of approximately one kilometer connects the property to the Chania Venetian Harbor, offering a unique walk along the waterfront.

The villa features eight spacious, self-contained suites, each with its own distinctive character and view — from uninterrupted sea vistas to tranquil garden settings. Every suite combines period elegance with modern comfort, offering air-conditioning, satellite TV, telephone, mini-bar, kettle, coffee maker, and essential dining ware.

Breakfast may be enjoyed in the privacy of your suite, in the lush garden by the pool, or on the shared sea-view balcony. The verdant garden surrounding the swimming pool and jacuzzi creates a peaceful setting for relaxation, while private protected parking is available on site.

At Villa Andromeda, history, refined comfort, and authentic Cretan hospitality blend harmoniously.

Atmosphere

INTERIOR

The historicity of the building is reflected in all its interiors. During its renovation and conversion into a hotel, great attention was paid to the preservation, care and completion of all its special and authentic elements.

Elements such as painted ceilings, the coat of arms of the Ottoman Empire and the marble staircase. The atmosphere is complemented by authentic paintings, handmade rugs, antique furniture and a diffuse aristocratic simplicity.

EXTERIOR

The exterior of the hotel is dominated by a rich and all green garden with a variety of plants and trees. Beautiful corners are created between them, such as Rommel’s small cistern, which provide interesting alternations, relaxation and awakening of the senses.

The serenity of this protected garden is complemented by the swimming pool and jacuzzi, creating a peaceful setting for moments of rest throughout the day.

There is a comfortable seating area around them. There, you can enjoy your breakfast, your swimming and relax during the day and evenings.
