TO SEE
Located in one of the most prominent spots of the island, Rethymno City, the iconic Retreat is only within a few minutes reach to anything you may need, but still offering the long awaited tranquility home you longed for. Must see are the The Fortezza: BVenetian fortress built for war, dedicated to culture, The Palaeontology Museum, Be sure to also make time for the Historical and Folklore Museum. Cultural landmarks abound in Rethymno. The Neratzi Mosque (now a music conservatory) is an obvious meeting point because of its sky-high minaret (built in 1890). And the New Square is ringed by grand homes, the Catholic Church of St Francis and an Ottoman mausoleum and school. At Platanos Square, you’ll pass bustling restaurants and cafes and arrive at the famous Rimondi Fountain, constructed in 1626. Meanwhile, Makri Steno (long alley), which leads from the National Park to the Fortezza, with its Venetian homes and marble fountains, is one of the most beautiful streets in Rethymno.
TO DO
Some of the very best restaurants Rethymno has to offer are within walking distance from your retreat. Prima Plora Bio Restaurant, a delightfully based next to the water- front and offers instant access to the sea through its privately paved terrace restaurant bar. You can enjoy either a drink or a meal in a very traditional, homely and hospitable atmosphere. Cavo restaurant will bewitch you, with its scenic settings & funky food&beverage offering, a must see during your stay with us. Galera restaurant has some of the best fish meze offering and it would be your favorite lunch or dinner spot. Noulis Coffee shop will be your daily visit spot as it offers a wide variety of breakfast choices & snack options for the whole day and is just a few steps from your home. All those options and many more are just a few minutes walk from your holiday home, so feel free to drink away. Many more wonderful restaurants are available to explore in the old town of Rethymno and we remain at your disposal to recommend you only the very best. The allure of Crete is impossible to ignore. Sandy beaches and crystalline waters. Quintessential blue and unique architecture carved into hillsides. Luxury combines with nature and the exquisite setting is an astounding example of the philosophy of the villa, offering guests authentic, exclusive and custom-made experiences.
