After the Venetians carved up the Byzantine Empire, they decided the spot could be made into a fine harbour for their trading ships. No Minoan palaces, Classical ruins or even Roman roads have been found here, though archaeologists speculate they may lie buried under […]

From Our Guests

The modernity of the apartment, exceptional location, and view, impeccable cleanliness. Welcome more than warm and very attentive: fruit and wine fresh! Cushion, bowls, and food were offered to our little dog. Popi is a great person: excellent communication, good advice, and addresses… she is very accommodating and generous. Great breakfast at the restaurant next door. We will definitely be back in a future stay in Crete.

Clean, modern, lots of light, very comfortable bed and pillows. beautiful decoration..fully equipped with washing machine, dishwasher, microwave, plenty of cutlery and dishes. I loved the vintage piece of furniture. We enjoyed the free bottle of white wine and strawberry. Mrs. Popi and her husband Mr.George are friendly and polite, and communicating with them was fast and easy. The location is lovely with sea and old harbor view with the beautiful lighthouse.

Our stay at V77 was delightful. The apartment is even better than the photos and our family really enjoyed our time there. Popi and George are the most gracious hosts and they’ve done an incredible job preparing the apartment with everything needed. The apartment, furniture, bedding, etc were all immaculate.
The location is really perfect with the beach across the street, Old Town shops out the door, and very close proximity to some of the best restaurants in Rethymno.
I feel like we’ve made lifelong friends and look forward to going back and staying again! We are very sad to leave.

We were the very first to stay here and the location was superb with an amazing view of the Venetian harbour and entire seafront from the front balcony. The bustling shopping streets were literally around the corner too and a whole range of bars and restaurants nearby. The apartment is breathtaking!

Amazing place with lovely hosts. Strongly recommended!
Spacious modern apartment, it was definitely enough space for our 5 people group. (3 adults, 2 toddlers). Lovely terrace with jacuzzi and outdoor dining space. Clean new bathrooms, well-equipped kitchen. We asked for baby cots, but the hosts also got us high chairs, a little table with chairs, even some toys! We really felt like their guests. They went above and beyond. The breakfast included in the price served in a place downstairs was very tasty and portions were big.

Great spot on the island. The apartment is definitely top class. Situated on the main promenade. Big plus jacuzzi on the terrace. Breakfasts included in the price are very tasty 🙂 The terrace offers a beautiful view of the bay. The owners were very helpful in every way 🙂

Appartement très bien placé avec une vue incroyable sur le port. Le bruit des restaurants est bien compensé par une bonne insonorisation. Prestations à la hauteur de l annonce, terrasse avec jacuzzi transats et coin déjeuner avec barbecue top! Hôte très accueillante, serviable et pleine de bons conseils, le tout accompagné d une excellente disponibilité et réactivité.
