Prime location in the heart of Rethymno
Good communication with the property managers, they also organised our transfer taxis, and a reservation at a beach resort which was great. The property itself is lovely, clean and everything you could need for your stay. We didn't use the cooker preferring to eat out, so we only used the kettle and toaster, but there was even a toastie machine in the cupboard. We loved the balcony on the main living space for watching the busy street below. It became our morning spot to watch the sun rise with coffee and toast and of an evening with a glass of wine watching the street buzz with people milling about. Beds are comfy and plenty of storage for your clothes. There was even bottled water and Raki, along with fresh fruit, in the fridge. Location is absolutely spot on, right in the middle of old town, shops, bars, restaurants all right there on your doorstep with the harbour literally a couple of minutes walk away. The private roof terrace was a great spot to relax in the sun, it was so quiet and peaceful up there! Sunloungers, table and chairs and bbq all available to use on the roof.
We found the house a little tricky to find from where the taxi dropped us but once I had a landmark I called them and the lady came out to meet us where we waited. Would highly recommend and in fact I've just shared the details with a friend which I think speaks volumes about our stay.

Great property in the centre of town
The property was clean, smart and presented to a very high standard. The owner and managing agent were very attentive and were genuinely keen to ensure that our stay was the best that it could be. We made great use of the roof terrace and front balcony when the sun was out and when the clouds came the perfect location of the property meant that shopping, bars and restaurants were very close at hand. All in all we had a great time in Rythamno.

Great property in centre of old town
If you are looking for a property with everything âon the doorstepâ, then this is for you. Restaurants, tavernas and shops are all immediately available, as it is right in the heart of the charming old town. The harbour is only a few minutesâ walk, and can be seen from the roof terrace. The property is well maintained, and the family and management company, Etouri, could not be more helpful. The choice of balconies and sunny roof terrace, with 360 degree views, are the icing on the cake. This was our second visit, and once again we were sorry to leave.

Perfect house in perfect location
After 4 months of working from home, a fortnight in Loggia Home was exactly what we needed.
The property couldnât be more central, surrounded by excellent places to eat and shop. It is a beautiful house with great facilities, especially the roof terrace and balconies (if you can cope with the spiral staircase up to the roof - worth the shaky knees in my case!).
The bedrooms are spacious with plenty storage and the living space and kitchen very comfortable.
The management company is attentive if you need anything and the owner is lovely! Weâve never felt so welcome.
Rethymno is a great place for a holiday, particularly if like us you donât drive.
Look forward to returning one day.

All information on property was accurate.
From start to finish
Booking process & communication was excellent, all emails answered promptly. Any concerns were answered and all information on property was accurate. We had a lovely stay at the Loggia home. Check in was helpful & friendly & anymore information on house or resort was only a phone call away. Home was lovely & would totally recommend this property to anyone wanting a central location. We had other members of our family staying in town & found Rethymno a lovely town to stay within. The park & ride scooters were awesome to get around in over resort. We did go to the Baja beach club quite a few times & loved the vibe there. Also the beach where you donât pay for sun beds, only drinks & food is very good, such lovely people running that so totally recommend. This is signposted along front so look out for it. Thanks ever so much for letting us rent your gorgeous home and would certainly return.

All we could ask for, and a perfect location
The accommodation was wonderful, the location perfect, and the host was great. Alexandro, who owns the property with his Mom Eva, met us at the property, gave us a great tour of everything, and showed us true hospitality and friendship. Our timing was perfect, as we were invited to a family/friend get together that evening with genuinely nice people, local food and drink, and lovely music - a true highlight of our trip. The accommodation itself was all and more than we needed.....room for four easily, clean, comfortable, and perfectly located. Staff from Etouri contacted us twice during our visit to make sure all was as expected. Only good things to say! No negatives! We'll surely be back to Rethymno, and we'll be staying again at Loggia Home if it is available!

easy going short break
The property was better equipped than any previous rentals. This trip we did not want to bother with a car or cooking. We wanted an interesting city center where we could walk out the door and eat. Loggia Home did just that .
However, while the roof terrace was fun and very private , anyone with vertigo would not like the spiral steps to it.
In a town center one expects a little noise and it was OK exept for Saturday night where the street did not go quiet till 3 am and this was in May!!!!

In the center of a night disco
The house is a very nice and spacious two storey building in the touristic center of Rethymno, reasonably well equipped with all what you need and a nice terrace on the roof - and sure in lively district with many people during the whole day passing by below a small balcony - so far so good and expected. What was not expected and hardly foreseeable : after 10-11 pm some of the local restaurants turned into open air disco at a fascinating high decibel level competing with different music concepts - so if you are appalled by such scenario and like loud music in the night it may be a great place to be - otherwise it may become stupid after some days. Do not know how people living around this area all the time can bear this...

Mittendrin und doch in relativer Ruhe
Ich will nicht ein weiteres Mal alle bereits genannten VorzĂŒge dieser angenehmen Unterkunft wiederholen, aber gern alle bestĂ€tigen.
Sowohl die Hausbesitzer als auch die Agentur Etouri haben uns wunderbar betreut und liebevoll Kontakt gehalten. Wir haben auf Empfehlung der Agentur ein Auto von Best Cars gemietet und waren auch ĂŒber deren Betreuung und Angebot mehr als erfreut.
Wer entspannte Tage in Rhetymno verbringen möchte ist hier bestens aufgehoben. Restaurants, GeschÀfte und Kultur findet man in unmittelbarer Umgebung. Auch zum Meer und Hafen ist es nur ein Katzensprung. Wer seine Mittouristen mal ein wenig hinter sich lassen möchte, sollte die wirklich schöne Altstadt mal verlassen und sich ein bisschen durch das andere Rhetymno treiben lassen.
Wir hatten 9 schöne Tage, in denen wir die groĂe Dachterasse gern genutzt haben und im echt bequemen Bett sehr gut geschlafen haben.
Das allerdings erst ab Mitternacht, da bis dahin auf beiden Seiten des Hauses fĂŒr musikalische Unterhaltung gesorgt wird. Aber das war uns vorher klar und machte unseren Aufenthalt keinen Deut schlechter.
Wir empfehlen die Villa uneingeschrÀnkt!

Phantastisch !
Bereits bei der Buchung fiel die hohe ProfessionalitĂ€t der Agentur auf. Alles wurde sehr schnell bearbeitet, Fragen wurden umfassend beantwortet und man wurde immer ĂŒber die AblĂ€ufe informiert.
Das Objekt stimmt mit den Bildern und der Beschreibung 100 %ig ĂŒberein. Die UnterstĂŒtzung vor Ort war erstklassig, das Objekt Ă€usserst gepflegt und sauber.
Die Lage ist einfach nur grossartig, man befindet sich mitten in dem venezianischen Viertel der Altstadt mit wunderbaren Tavernen und LĂ€den.
Besonders die UnterstĂŒtzung von Alexandros möchte ich erwĂ€hnen: ein sehr lieber Mensch, dem das Wohl der GĂ€ste am Herzen liegt. Ihm nochmals vielen Dank fĂŒr die schönen Stunden !
Insgesamt ist die Wohnung sehr zu empfehlen. Sobald es wieder nach Kreta geht, werden wir versuchen, sie wieder zu bekommen.
etouri, Kostas, Robert sowie Alexandros einen herzlichen Dank fĂŒr einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt.

Die Wohnung ist bestens ausgestattet und fĂŒr 4 Personen ideal geeignet. Alle Zimmer sind mit Klimanlage ausgestattet und die Betten sind sehr komfortabel.

3 Balkone laden zum perfekten Entspannen ein. Das Grillen und Sitzen Abends auf der Dachterrasse haben wir besonders genossen.
Die zentrale Lage mitten in der Stadt lĂ€dt zum Bummeln ein und viele Tavernen sind in kĂŒrzester Entfernung zu FuĂ zu erreichen,
Am Standstrand ist man in 15min zu FuĂ.
Das etouri Team um Kostas hat uns tolle Empfehlungen bzgl. Autovermietung und Ausflugsmöglichkeiten gegeben.
Die Besitzerin der Villa Mrs. Eva und ihre Familie ist sehr freundlich und sorgt sich besetns um ihre GĂ€ste.
Wir können die Wohnung sehr empfehlen.
