Beautiful house located in the heart of old Rethymno. It has two floors and large terrace/balcony overlooking the small Piazza with old Venetian fountain. Just below there are plenty of restaurants and shops. The evening noise from the dining crowd is partially screened by greenery spread horizontally over the Piazza and if you close the windows, the noise disappears completely. it is 15 minutes walk to the beach, 8 minutes walk to beautiful Venetian Fortezza where you can have 360 view of the island, including the summit of Ida, 4-5 walk to supermarket, and 10 minutes walk to free parking (it is easy to find place there before noon but challenging after 1pm; paid parking close to entrance to Fortezza, 6 min walk, fee EUR 10 per night).
Manolis, the host, is extremely nice and responsive. He brought us red wine and rakia for gratis, both produced from grapes from him owned vineyard. I believe he also owns a couple of restaurants in the Piazza near the house.
