Perfect

Everything was perfect. Effie showed us the real Greek hospitality. We got traditional sweets and drinks as soon as we arrived and during our staying too. The house is perfectly equipped and clean. The location of the house is also great, many restaurants, bars and shops. We want to go back as soon as possible. 😊

What a gem.

We visited this lovely place in the heart of the Old Town, steps away from the shops, restaurants and bars and not too far from the harbour and beach. The apartment was reached up some stairs to be above the street level shops. The 2 lovely bathrooms were welcome due to our family size. It was super clean and well equipped. Effie our superb host had thought of everything and nothing was too much trouble. We woke up to an unexpected no water situation due to a leak somewhere in the town and she arrived with water and little local pastries. Effie left us with Olive Oil and wine produced by her extended family, shared places or interest as well as recommended restaurants. We visited this beautiful place to attend a family wedding and Effie sent her best wishes too. She helped arrange our transfer and met us late at night to lead us the way. Exceptional customer service.

Would highly recommend anyone to stay here and Effie has smaller apartments next door.

The kitchen facilities were fantastic, and Effie had left small supplies of the essentials you need. Upon arrival she met us with typical Greek hospitality, drinks and gifts. Throughout our stay, we knew she would be available to us for any queries we may have had, and would have been eager to help. The apartment provided us with the most comfortable of stays, we couldn’t have asked for more.

Effie is a fantastic host. She welcomed us in an amazing way and followed up with us throughout our entire stay. The house is perfect! It is located right in the heart of the old town and has three terraces, three bedrooms, and two bathrooms. High standard and very clean. We will definitely stay here again.

Perfect

Effie is the best host you could wish for. The accomodation is placed in the best place in rethymno with supermarkts and bakery’s nearby. The airconditioning is amazing and the house is so so clean. Effie also offered to clean the house while we were on a trip which was also nice. 10/10 would go again!!!!

Effie and her property provided us with everything we needed to have an amazing vacation!

Perfect property! Amazing host! The property was in the most perfect location. Right in the middle of old town with a short walk to the coast. The house had everything you needed and was spotless! Effie welcomed us with amazing treats and provided more during our stay! She also gave wonderful recommendations on places to go and what to do. I hope someday we can go back!

Effie is the best host I ever had. She offered her help a lot, brought us traditional sweets from time to time and offered to Wash the bed sheets and Towels. Also there was homemade olive oil and Raki and some fruits available for Free. The Apartment is perfect with the 2 badrooms. Best is the big roof garden and the Location in the middle of the old town. We will definetly stay there again.
