Award-Winning Chic Apartment · Steps from Beach & Old Town · Sleeps 5
Welcome to Aria's Apartment, a newly renovated, boutique-style retreat in the heart of Rethymno, one of Crete's most beautiful and authentic towns.

Everything inside is brand new, from the designer furniture and statement lighting to the fully equipped kitchen and luxurious bathrooms. Guests consistently tell us the apartment looks even better in person than in the photos.
