Land for sale in Stavromenos Rethymnon Location Information:

The seaside village of Stavromenos, lies at a distance of 13 km east of Rethymnon. Stavromenos has its own long sandy stretch of beach, a popular swimming spot, and ample amenities such as cafes and tavernas, as well as having a vibrant, albeit, casual nightlife.

A fully organized beach, it is suitable for the entire family and it is even a favourite location for the ‘Caretta Caretta’ sea turtles to lay their eggs. Usually visiting the beach during the nights, between May and September, it is advised to be very vigilant during late night strolling on the beach for fear of disturbing the mothers’ reproductive cycle and stumbling upon ... a turtle nest!

Rethymno combines rarely united features: the old towns charm and history, with proximity to a long sandy beach.

There are two sides to Rethymno offering two styles of visit: the endless big beach hotel strip that stretches from the east end of Rethymno, lapping up the coastal "villages" of Perivolia, Platanias, Adelianos Kambos, Pigianos Kambos, Sfakaki, Stavromenos and Skaleta - and - the Rethymno that allows you the character of the old town with its mix of architecture and history, cultural influences and styles ranging from Venetian to Ottoman empire. We present the second and more romantic choice - leaving the all-inclusive beach and booze tours to others.

its a place that moves slowly, a very romantic place, and the most important preserves much of its Venetian and Turkish appearance.

Explore one of the best preserved medieval cities in Greece, and search for your fairy-tale romance in Rethymno. Venetian fortification works mingle harmonically with orthodox and catholic churches, mosques, majestic mansions of Venetian architecture, arches, and cobbled paths which create a magical atmosphere, reminiscence of the city’s turbulent –yet glorious– past.

Before leaving the beach, we should mention that there are other visitors - the turtles. Turtles are regular visitors along the beaches of Rethymno and return between June and August to lay their eggs each year.
