Holiday rentals near Ecclesiastical Museum

Having read previous reviews, our expectations were high and we weren’t disappointed. We were a group of six - my husband and I and four late teen/adult children. I was after a villa that would provide a cool, comfortable and welcoming base for us as we explored Rethymno. I can only repeat what other reviewers have said - the villla was terrific. We also wanted to be located somewhere that would be easy for everyone to experience a bit of local life outside of the tourist traps - buying food from the local shops, taking the bus to and from Rethymno, having a coffee in one of several coffee shops and watching the neighbourhood. For this, the location was brilliant. George also helped to arrange a day trip to Samaria Gorge which was a highlight of our entire trip to Greece.

This is a spacious, comfortable and well equipped apartment and made our stay in Rethymno special. Owners Nikolaos and Georgia have taken great care to ensure their 2 bedroom apartment has everything required to make it the perfect place to stay. They are attentive hosts and provided us with generous hospitality during our stay. Situated in the heart of the old town in a small square 50 -100 metres from main pedestrianised streets and a 5 minute walk to the Venetian harbour, it is a quiet retreat from the busy tourist activity nearby. We found Rethymno to be a delightful place to visit with its marble slab streets and ancient buildings and Venetian architecture. It abounds with quality restaurants and a wide range of tourist and retail shops, and being traffic free for most of the day it is a pleasure to walk around and explore.
