About this house rental

Daphne Luxury home is apart of a historical boutique complex with 3 villas. Its origins date back to the Venetian period (1201-1669) as its estimate time of built is in the late 16th-beginning of the 17th century when Crete was occupied by the Venetians. It was originally a castle house that probably belonged to a nobleman-might we say the Venetian governor.
After the occupation of Crete by the Ottomans in the year 1669, the house was inhibited by the Turks. Thus, its Venetian architecture bares elements of the Ottoman architecture.Part of the building facing to the south has been fully preserved as it was initially originated by the Venetians; also, its Venetian courtyard with the three pillars and a unique octagon artistic fountain as it is the only one saved among the three that existed on the island of Crete.

Casa Vitae Luxury Homes have now got 3 fully renovated, private, spacious and airy luxurious Villas, which maintain the historical Venetian and Ottoman styles of their epoch.Daphne Luxury Home - Villa is located in the heart of the old town of Rethymno, at a walking distance from the beach, from all major archaeological sites and from all restaurants and shopping areas. Daphne Villa is suitable for couples, honeymooners and family's since it provides luxury facilities and the private pool area and it is a walking distance from whatever one should need to have a great holiday in Crete.

Our town Rethymno, is the located in the center of the island of Crete, which means that it is the best location to choose if exploring is what a guest would like to do on there holiday.

Our family of 4 (2 adults with 2 daughters in early 20s) had a fabulous holiday in Crete. The apartment is wonderful with all the charm of an old building which has been sympathetically restored and modernised to a high standard. All the rooms are large and we found having two bathrooms to be a bonus. The swimming pool is very small, so not ideal for keen swimmers, but excellent to cool down in whilst reading a book and drinking a cold glass of wine! This suited us perfectly! The location of the apartment is equally as impressive, being right in the heart of Rethymnon "Old Town' with less than a minutes' walk to the town's best shops and restaurants and 10 mins to the beach. There are several supermarkets within a short walk and a fabulous bakery about 10 minutes walk away. Communication was with a delightful lady called Athina via Whats App. She sent excellent directions to help us to find the apartment and then met us at there when we arrived. Athina showed us around and then talked us through some of the best places to go on the island. During our week long stay, Athina answered any questions we had very promptly and although we didn't actually have any problems with the apartment, I have now doubt that Athina would have dealt with them very efficiently if we had. I would say that the only downside is that there is no private parking so we parked in a public car park. Not a problem except that parking in Rethymnon is a challenge so it wasn't always easy to find a space. Having said that, there is so much to do in Rethymnon, we found that we didn't use the car much, other than to travel to the beautiful beaches which are on the south coast. I would highly recommend this apartment and Rethymnon as a holiday destination. We are already planning our visit for next year!
