Questions about the venue
What's included in venue rental?+
The estate provides grounds access, core buildings, basic tables and chairs, and parking. Catering, florals, photography, and additional rentals are arranged separately with your coordinator.
Can we host both ceremony and reception here?+
Yes. The estate's multiple terraced levels allow you to position the ceremony in one area (often the upper groves) and move guests to the reception space, creating natural transitions.
What's the nearest airport?+
Rethimno is served by Chania International Airport 'Ioannis Daskalogiannis' (CHQ), approximately 65 km away, about 75 minutes by car.
Is accommodation available on-site?+
The estate itself has limited rooms. Most guests stay in nearby Rethimno hotels (5–15 minutes away) or other Cretan villages. Your planner can recommend options.
What's the best season to marry here?+
July–August can be very hot; winter rainfall is possible but rare.
