My stay in Aretousa was probably one of the most relaxing times of my life. The property is located only minutes away from the beach in a calm, welcoming, and relaxing neighborhood that has amenities and restaurants well within walking distance. The apartment was clean, well-furnished, and comfortable and Lena was always available to offer assistance and suggestions during the entirety of my stay.
For those of you who are interested in exploring Crete and are looking for a place to start, I would definitely suggest booking this listing and speaking with Lena for incredible insight. Rethymno is a relaxing holiday destination that provides you with modern conveniences along with the allure and enchantment many associated with Cretan travel. Rethymno is a good starting "hub" for your journey, and the apartment is suitable for both short and long-term stays.
If your goal is to get away, enjoy some time on the beach, and relax, this is the place to do it. If you want to explore various Cretan villages and beaches and need a space to crash after a day of driving, eating, and exploring, this listing will provide you with that as well. There is a car rental agency just around the corner that will provide you fair rates and ease of mind.
Comfortable is the best word I can use to describe my time at Aretousa, and I hope that others find their time there to be similar.
