Wow! Don’t hesitate to book! We had the most wonderful stay, welcomed by Christos who was genuinely the perfect host. The apartment was stylish, high end, modern and and with unexpected touches of hospitality from tech to food, drink and toiletries surprising us throughout our stay.
The hot tub on the private rooftop with BBQ, dining and sunbathing area was lovely day and night and a great treat after exploring the old town.
Christos went above and beyond to prepare and make our stay comfortable and pleasurable, including transfers to and from the apartment, giving top tips about where to eat in town, offered to send a doctor over when our child was unwell. We truly felt well set up and looked after and had a luxury rest break.
The apartment is a couple of minutes walk to the beach, shops and restaurants and is tucked away in a quiet and peaceful area without any disturbances.
We walked into the old town some days and taxi’d others for just 6euro. It’s also just a 20min walk to Baja Beach where for a few euros you can get a sun lounger, towels, water and access to their pool and private beach, restaurant and bar etc which is fab if some days you want the hotel pool and beachside convenience without the price tag.
The Dolphin Apartment, apart from being an excellent example of how to do luxury apartments, is also in my opinion the ideal location for Rethymnon; located in a peaceful place, with everything on your doorstep and a host that cares.
