Casa Maistra Residence

Having visited Rethymno twice previously we knew Casa Maistra would be perfectly located for our needs. It is within a 5 min walk of the main car park, 10 mins from the beach and just a short walk to the many restaurants in the old town. Marinos, the owner, was very responsive to our queries before we’d even arrived in Crete and remained so throughout our visit. It was a lovely touch to come back to the apartment one day to find a delicious apple and cinnamon cake he had purchased for us 👍. The apartment we had was a city view and consisted of a living room with a small kitchen in it leading through to the downstairs bedroom. Between the two the bathroom is located. In the bedroom is a spiral staircase which leads up to the mezzanine floor above on which the second bedroom is located. It is from this bedroom that the roof terrace is accessed. The door to the roof has an electronic security shutter for added peace of mind. The door from the street is opened using an electronic keypad as is the apartment door. We found this very useful as we didn’t need to remember to take keys with us when we went out. There are TV’s in the living room and both bedrooms along with an air conditioning unit to match. The kitchen has everything you could need, a kettle, a coffee machine, toaster and a microwave along with a selection of crockery and cutlery. A fridge is also present. The bathroom consists of a large sink, toilet with douche shower and a large walk in shower with a rainfall head and a lower wand shower. By way of extra facilities there is a small laundry room on the first floor. We made use of the washing machine a couple of times and our items dried in no time, on the provided clothes rack, once placed up on the roof terrace. Word of note if you don’t read Greek, the TV’s menus are in Greek as are the controls on the washing machines. We simply used the camera view on Google translate and managed to log ourselves in to Netflix etc and work out the correct setting

Not an problem for us but the 2nd bedroom is up a fairly tight spiral staircase so you may wish to bear this in mind if you or someone with you has mobility issues.

Clean. Very well located. Marion’s was so helpful.

Nothing

Great location, and use of space

Not much at all.

Πανέμορφο, πεντακάθαρο, ευρύχωρο και με υπέροχη θέα!

We recently had the pleasure of visiting this house, and it truly impressed us in every way. The property itself is beautifully maintained, with a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes it instantly feel like home. The layout is practical yet spacious, offering plenty of natural light throughout the rooms. What really sets this house apart is its view and location. Nestled in a safe and quiet neighborhood, it provides a sense of peace and privacy while still being conveniently close to shops and restaurants.
