Gratelia Apartment Damnoni, Dhamnóni

Gratelia Apartment Damnoni is a self-catering apartment in Dhamnóni, Greece, set on Παλαιά ταβερνα ρεθυμνο, an area that suits travelers who want beach time without giving up a calm base. With a guest rating of 9.7/10 from 24 reviews, it’s the kind of place people describe as consistently well cared for, where cleanliness and smooth check-in matter. The apartment is air-conditioned for warm afternoons, and the terrace with outdoor furniture gives you a comfortable place to linger after a swim. Because the kitchen is part of the setup, you can keep meals flexible—use it for breakfast at your own pace, or cook light dinners before heading out. Guests also note the practicalities: express check-in/check-out helps when you’re on a tight schedule, and staff follow local safety protocols. Offsite parking is available with discounted rates, which can be useful if you’re planning to explore beyond the immediate coastline. Pets are allowed, so it can work for visitors traveling with animals who still want a quiet, residential feel. For sightseeing, Damnoni Beach is about 1 km away and Ammoudaki Beach is roughly 2 km, making short walks and quick swims realistic. If you want more of a lively beach scene, Plakias Beach is around 6 km, with more dining and activities. For a day trip into heritage streets, Rethymno town is about 30 km, where you can swap the coastal pace for a historic center stroll. This apartment is best for couples and solo explorers seeking a relaxed, nature-led base with dependable comfort.
