Petra Retreat Residence 2

Tucked into the tranquil coastal neighborhood of Daratso, this version of Petra Retreat Residence offers a unique experience for travelers seeking authenticity, comfort, and a touch of rustic beauty. Part of a restored cluster of historic homes, the maisonette reflects the soft soul of Cretan architecture--once Turkish residences, these buildings carry echoes of history, from the preserved stone cistern to stories of an imam who once lived in the area.
This two-level home is ideal for couples, solo travelers, or small families looking for a quiet and welcoming base near the sea. Upstairs, youll find a cozy bedroom with a 160 x 200cm double bed and a TV. A sofa bed is also available in the same room, offering extra sleeping space. Downstairs, the living area features another sofa bed, making the house flexible and functional for up to four guests.
Air-conditioned and thoughtfully designed, the maisonette offers a calm space to relax after days spent exploring the beaches or wandering through the streets of Chania. The kitchen is fully equipped for casual meals, morning coffees, or evening snacks, and includes all the essentials for a comfortable stay.
One of the highlights of this home is the private outdoor dining area--tucked under a thatched pergola and surrounded by stone walls, it feels like a secret garden. Its the perfect spot to enjoy a long breakfast, a quiet book in the afternoon, or a candlelit dinner under the warm Cretan night sky.
Guests have access to a washing machine, iron, and drying rack, and are welcomed with a selection of local packaged treats, water, and wine.
The location makes things easy: just a short drive or bus ride brings you to the famous beach of Agioi Apostoloi with its calm, shallow waters. The local mini market and a traditional restaurant are just 100 meters away, while a bus stop with direct service to Chania town sits right beneath the house. Larger supermarkets, beach bars, and cafes are all nearby, giving you everything you need without losing the sense of quiet retreat.
Simple, welcoming, and full of character, Petra Retreat Residence maisonette is a place to slow down, breathe deeply, and enjoy Crete at your own pace.
