Lynx Villa is situated at an altitude of 60 meters in the charming and authentic village of Pigi, about 9 kilometers east of Rethymno town. Pigi offers a true taste of Cretan hospitality, with traditional kafeneia (coffee houses), tavernas, a bakery, and a mini market, all within walking distance from the villa.

Pigi boasts a rich history dating back to the Venetian period. The village is home to several notable churches, including Agios Nikolaos, adorned with 14th-century frescoes, and Agios Georgios, featuring frescoes from 1411. The central square houses the Monument to the Fallen of Pigi and Agios Dimitrios, commemorating those who fought in significant 20th-century battles. Nearby lies the village of Adele, and is on the route to the historic Arkadi Monastery.
