About this property

Charming house in the old town near the sea - sunny rooftop

Our 2-storied family house is located in the picturesque and lively historic centre of Rethymno with its Venetian and Turkish architectural styles, while the sea is literally just around the corner.
From the ground floor, stairs lead up to the first level where the bright living area with sofa, Smart-TV, radio/CD-player, air-conditioning and Internet access are. The large space invites you to linger, and from the balcony you can watch the going-on of the original and lively neighbourhood. Next to the dining area you will find the open kitchen, which is well equipped with fridge, cooking facility including oven, microwave, coffee machine, kettle, toaster and juicer. On the same floor you will also find a WC with washing machine.
The 2 air-conditioned bedrooms as well as the fully equipped bathroom with bathtub and WC are located on the second floor. The bedroom facing the street is equipped with two single beds (90x200cm), which can be used as a double bed on request, air-conditioning, a writing desk and provides a balcony. The other bedroom to the back of the house has a double bed (160x200cm), air-condition, a private veranda and access over an iron staircase to the large roof top with view to the Venetian fortress “Fortezza” and the sea.
The rooftop terrace is a great place to relax in the open and is equipped with an umbrella, 2 sun beds and dining table.
For the few colder days of the year, we provide radiator and fan heaters as well as air-conditioning.
Enjoy authentic Greek neighbourhood living in a well-tended, comfortable environment where we kept dear old elements and furniture and combined them with modern life-style equipment and amenities. This balance between old and new adds a special charm to our house which we equipped with loving attention to the detail.
You reach the long sandy beach, which has been awarded with the Blue Flag, in a short 5-minute walk. The Venetian Harbour, other sights, museums, small shops, supermarkets, cafes, taverns, restaurants and bars can be found in the immediate vicinity which may be audible on the side facing the street.

A flexible self-check-in and -out can be arranged, but we are glad to welcome you in person.
