Pink beaches in Crete: Contrary to the typical golden sands found on many beaches, the pink sand beaches of Crete boast a distinctive rosy hue, creating a picturesque and dreamlike ambiance that enchants visitors upon arrival. The delicate blush tones of the sand are a result of finely crushed shells, coral, and calcium carbonate deposits, which have been weathered over time, lending the beaches their signature color. One of the most renowned pink sand beaches on the island is Elafonissi Beach, located on the southwest coast of Crete. This idyllic stretch of coastline features crystalline waters and powdery pink sands framed by rugged cliffs and verdant vegetation. Travelers can spend blissful hours basking in the sun, swimming in the azure waters, or strolling along the shoreline, admiring the natural beauty that surrounds them.
Historic Background Our restored traditional setting is located in the traditional village Atsipopoulo, a historic village that has several stories to tell referring to its 700 years life, in Medieval & Renaissance times. The Venetians gradually established their rule over the island from 1210. There are many stories referring to Venetian dukes and noblemen in the area, army parades and dancing ceremonies of the 16th century but also to terrible battles against the Ottomans on the 17th. The coat of arms (stamp) of a great local commander Alessio Calergi, still visible by our pool has its origin in the year 1290.
Why Rethymno? The advantages of staying in Rethymno, comparing to staying in other cities in Crete: - Not far from Chania and Heraklion airports - both cities reachable in 1 hour drive. - Possibility to drive to the south coast in less than 1 hour. - Easy access to the mountains and famous places/villages like Anogia, Margarites, Eleutherna, Arkadi. - Many nice/famous beaches in short distance - Access to many archeological sites like Eleutherna, Knossos. - Smaller & more accessible town than Chania. You can move anywhere on foot, you don’t need a car. - More authenticity - Night life even in winter
-RETHYMNO is a city on the north coast of the Greek island of Crete. In the old town, the Venetian Harbor is filled with fishing boats and lined with tavernas. Rethymno Lighthouse was built in the 1830s. West, the hilltop Fortezza is a star-shaped, 16th-century citadel. The Historical and Folklore Museum preserves local crafts like textiles and ceramics. Long, sandy Rethymno Beach stretches to the east. Rethymno, in Crete, is a rare combination of history and modern-day luxury, with its Venetian-era Fortezza fortress and multicultural Old old Towntown, tropical beaches and exquisite Cretan cuisine. Walking around is like travelling back in time, to the period of Venetian rule in Crete. The Fortezza (fortress) sits at top Rethymno’s magical old town like a crown. And you can hear the echoes of the sea and as you walk along the Venetian port with its old lighthouse and get lost in the maze of alleyways, admiring the ornate doorways and the Venetian crests that decorate them. You’ll also visit the mosques with their minarets and hop between the dozens of shops, restaurants and cafes that give Rethymno its special atmosphere. Cultural landmarks abound in Rethymno. The Neratzi Mosque (now a music conservatory) is an obvious meeting point because of its sky-high minaret (built in 1890). And the New Square is ringed by grand homes, the Catholic Church of St Francis and an Ottoman mausoleum and school. At Platanos Square, you’ll pass bustling restaurants and cafes and arrive at the famous Rimondi Fountain, constructed in 1626. Meanwhile, Makri Steno (long alley), which leads from the National Park to the Fortezza, with its Venetian homes and marble fountains, is one of the most beautiful streets in Rethymno. Admire the Venetian port and lighthouse Along Nearchou Road, you’ll get to the picturesque Venetian harbour with its restored lighthouse, built between 1830-40. And behind the port is the 16th-century Venetian Loggia. Explore the beach that goes on and on The largest beach on Crete (12km) stretches along the east side of the city, from Rethymno to Skaleta. You’ll take advantage of the water sports in the Adelianos Kampos and enjoy a quiet swim in the rocky coves of the Pegianos Kampos. All along the beach, you’ll find beach bars with umbrellas and lounge chairs, shops and hotels. Enjoy authentic Cretan flavours and a glass of raki Rethymno will introduce you to culinary treats inspired by Crete’s flavourful cuisine and famously tasty local produce. There are restaurants in old buildings with beautiful gardens, rakadika that serve meze complemented by the local schnapps-like drink raki, and quaint little tavernas to choose from. The restored residence of two Venetian Councillors, the Ottoman mosque built by Sultan Ibrahim Khan (now hosting musical events), the Bishop’s Palace, the Ibrahim Khan Mosque, and cannons, bastions, and mansions… are just a few of the attractions that await you at the Fortezza, a 16th-century fortress. Many of Rethymno’s restored buildings host exhibitions and major cultural events, such as the annual Renaissance Festival. Activities: Discover the Cretan culture, beautiful landscapes away from tourist areas, golden sandy beaches, breathtaking views, wildlife, Cretan herbs, traditional wine, raki, honey and olive oil, homemade food, the myths and traditions that will awaken all your senses.

Fantastic
Wonderful location near the main roads, lovely village with friendly locals. The apartment was very clean and maintained on a regular basis. The pool was a great temperature and we could swim whenever we wanted. The rooftop was our place to sit at night and had lovely views. Manolis and Filitsa were amazing hosts and went above and beyond what what we expected. We normally stay at villas however we couldn’t fault our stay.

Hébergement top et propriétaires hyper professionnels
Nous revenons tout juste de notre séjour de 20 jours en Crète et nous avons été comblés par l'accueil et le niveau de prestation proposé par Manolis et sa famille.
Logement à la propreté irréprochable (le ménage est effectué tous les 3 jours et les draps et serviettes de bain sont changés à ce moment là), petit déjeuner avec spécialités locales proposé tous les matins, conseils précieux dispensés par Manolis et sa mère pour nous orienter au mieux avant les visites ou les meilleurs restos du coin.
Nous nous sommes sentis comme à la maison, ils ont été aux petits soins afin que le séjour se passe le mieux possible.
Autre atout de la résidence, son emplacement en plein cœur de la petite ville d'Atsipopoulo et à moins de 10 min en voiture de Rethymno.
Vous pouvez réserver sans hésiter !!!

Danke für so viel Gastfreundschaft
Lage: Bäckerei/Cafe direkt vorm Haus, Supermarkt gleich um die Ecke und 2 sehr gute Restaurants in wenigen Minuten zu Fuß erreichbar. Hübscher, kleiner griechischer Ort. Auto ist von Vorteil.
Calergi Residence ist gegenüber der Kirche, wo ab und zu natürlich früh morgens oder am Abend mal Glockengeläut zu hören ist.
Apartment: hübsch und freundlich eingerichtet und sehr sauber. Alle 3-4 Tage wird die Wohnung gereinigt, es gibt frische Handtücher etc.
Kleine Küche war mit den notwendigsten Sachen ausgestattet und könnte irgendwann mal mit Kleinigkeiten wie Toaster, Sieb, Eierbechern, Küchenmesser ergänzt werden. Es geht aber alles auch ohne diese Dinge!
Bad war zwar klein, aber modern eingerichtet.
Kleiner Balkon zum Innenhof mit Tisch und 2 Stühlen.
Innenhof ist hübsch angelegt und dort ist auch ein kleiner Pool zur Abkühlung.
Auf der gemeinschaftlichen Dachterrasse gibt es Liegen, eine schattige Sitzecke und einen Grill. Und eine schöne Aussicht...
Besonders hervorzuheben sind die beiden Gastgeber Filitsa und Manolis, die wirklich alles tun, damit die Gäste sich wohlfühlen. Morgens kann jeder zu einem kleinen (und noch dazu kostenlosen!) Frühstück in den Innenhof kommen und sich mit den beiden unterhalten, Probleme besprechen oder Tips für die Gestaltung des Tages abholen. Diese selbstgemachten kleinen Köstlichkeiten waren sehr lecker!
Vielen lieben Dank für diese tolle Art von Gastfreundschaft!
Etwas genervt haben uns abends die jugendlichen Anwohner, die ihren Treffpunkt an der Kirche hatten und ständig mit ihren sehr lauten Motorrollern an- und abgefahren sind. Teilweise konnte man seinen Gesprächspartner im angrenzenden Café nicht mehr verstehen. Schade, aber auch der einzige negative Punkt.
Alles in allem können wir Calergi Residence nur empfehlen!

Schöne verwinkelte mit viel Liebe gebaute Anlage
Wie Urlaub bei einer kretischen Familie. Herzliche Aufnahme und standen mit Rat und Tat zur Seite. Sie waren immer ansprechbar für Ihre Gäste. Es war für uns und unsere Kinder eine herrliche Zeit. Wir haben es sehr genossen.
