Just take a look at the harbour views from this apartment's balcony. From here, you'll enjoy taking in the sight of the Egyptian Lighthouse and the Old Venetian Harbour, while you really couldn't be better placed in beautiful Rethimno. French doors open up to invite the dreamy vistas inside too, creating a bright and airy living space to hang out after sightseeing trips in town. It's worth noting that the kitchenette is better suited to preparing light bites rather than large meals, but you'll find some of the area's best restaurants and popular cafes right on your doorstep. Meanwhile, beachgoers will find plenty of sand and sea within easy reach.
