This apartment was in the most perfect location! It is right in the middle of the old town which means it is surrounded by a lovely, vibrant nightlife (yet it is quiet in the apartment)! There are lots of nice shops and restaurants around. Fanis (Vagelis’ son) is in charge of the apartment and was very communicative, chatting to us about what we should do on the island, tips of restaurants and even brought us some delicious apricots! Anything we needed to helped us with!The apartment itself has just been renovated and is very modern, having everything you need. It fortunately has a washing machine, which is very helpful when it’s 30 degrees and you’re at beaches everyday! There is also a nice little courtyard to sit in. Rethymno was the perfect place to be based in, as it is close to Plakias in the south and a very doable drive either east or west! We also found the Rethymno restaurants/shops were cheaper than Chania. We would 100% recommend for anyone to stay in this apartment!
