    Other

    We are German real estate agents and specialize in real estate from Crete. In addition to finding suitable properties on Crete for you, our portfolio also includes organizing viewing appointments on Crete.
    We are at your side at every stage of your property purchase in Crete and will accompany you from the first conversation through to the notary contract.

    Your ideas are important to us, such as the location on Crete in combination with sea views, proximity to the beach, sandy beach, stone house or swimming pool. There are also important points to consider, such as the dimensions of the rooms in a property. In Greece and therefore also on Crete, the walls are included, i.e. external wall to external wall. In contrast to German real estate, here measurements are taken from the inside wall to the inside wall.

    We strongly recommend that you check the living space specified when visiting Crete, as this can differ greatly from German information (calculation, living space regulations, DIN standards) and usable areas may have been included (cellar, technical room, balcony, terrace, etc.).
    Please also note that when specifying the location of real estate offers on Crete, these are approximate values.
    The Greek energy certificate (if required) is available during the inspection.

    Additional costs such as commission, real estate transfer tax, notary fees and legal fees are added to the stated purchase price. You can find more details on our homepage at INFOS.

    All properties from Crete offered through our portal have been carefully checked and translated. However, errors can creep in, so we assume no liability for the accuracy of the information.

    If you have any questions about the topic of buying a property or land on Crete, we are happy to help you and can clarify further details in a conversation.

    Our general terms and conditions apply, which you can find on our homepage under general terms and conditions and right of withdrawal.

  • 🏡 Mesi (741 50) – Small, quiet village in the green heart of Rethymno

    📍 Location & Accessibility

    Mesi is a small, traditional village in the interior of northern Crete, about 12 km southeast of the city of Rethymno.
    It is nestled between the villages of Agia Triada, Pigi and Kirianna, surrounded by rolling hills and olive groves.

    The region is accessible via small country roads – a rental car is recommended for flexible exploration of the quiet area.

    🏘️ Village character & lifestyle

    Mesi is characterized by an authentic Cretan atmosphere, with traditional stone houses, well-kept gardens and a peaceful village community.
    The tranquility of the place makes it ideal for people who value closeness to nature and seclusion – whether for vacation or as a permanent residence.

    There are few facilities in the village itself, but the neighboring villages offer shops, taverns, cafes and everything you need for daily life.

    🌿 Nature & Surroundings

    The green hilly landscape surrounding Mesi is ideal for walks and hikes. The proximity to the coast (approximately 6 km to the nearest beach at Pigianos Campos) combines rural idyll with quick access to the sea.

    The region is known for its agricultural production – especially olive oil, wine and Cretan herbs.

    🏠 Real Estate & Potential

    Mesi offers potential for the acquisition of quiet holiday properties, traditional houses for restoration or modern villas with sea and mountain views.
    The combination of a natural location, proximity to Rethymno and the authentic village structure also makes Mesi interesting for investors who want to invest in a property on Crete away from mass tourism.

    🧭 Conclusion

    Mesi is a real insider tip village for those seeking peace and quiet, nature lovers and anyone who wants to experience the original Crete.
    Anyone looking to buy a villa, a holiday home, or a traditional stone house will find a charming place with plenty of potential here – surrounded by olive trees and within easy reach of the town of Rethymno and the sea.
