Xrisi Akti Apartment, Kastellákia

Xrisi Akti Apartment is a straightforward, family- and couple-friendly base in Kastellákia, Greece, placed at Elefterias 5, B4 for easy access to the Rethymno waterfront. If you want the beach within easy reach, the location works: Rethymno Beach is about 200 meters away, so mornings can start with a quick walk for sea air and a swim. For sightseeing, the apartment sits roughly 2 km from Rethymno Old Town and about 2 km from Fortezza Castle, letting you reach the historic core without needing to plan every outing around transport.

Inside, the emphasis is on comfort and quiet. Air conditioning helps you settle in after warm afternoons, while soundproof rooms are designed to cut down on street noise when you’re ready to rest. There’s also a terrace for downtime outdoors, and BBQ facilities that make it easier to enjoy simple evenings without leaving the property.

Guest feedback is limited but positive, with an overall rating of 8/10 from one review, suggesting a generally satisfying stay for at least some travelers. The presence of family rooms makes it a sensible option for groups who want shared space, while non-smoking throughout suits travelers who prefer cleaner indoor air. Offsite parking is available with discounted rates, which can help if you’re bringing a car for day trips along the coast or into the wider Rethymno area.
