财产 — Olive tree farm
Olive Tree Farm feels more like a working orchard than a hotel. You walk past gnarled olive trunks and herbs to a simple reception with terracotta floors and a faint scent of resin. Rooms are basic but spotless, with private terraces overlooking the fields. It suits couples or solo travellers who want quiet country walks, not poolside cocktails; the 3-star rating reflects honest comfort rather than frills.
Rethymno编年史
Rethymno was built by the Venetians in the 13th century on a Minoan settlement, then fortified by the Ottomans who added minarets to its churches. Its old town remains a maze of narrow lanes, arched doorways and Turkish fountains. The 16th-century Fortezza dominates the headland, and today the city blends a working port with student buzz from the University of Crete. It’s a liveable, walkable town, proud of its layered past and not just a beach resort.
参观的最佳时间
Rethymno完整指南 →最佳月
May and June, when the countryside is green and the sea warm enough to swim, but the meltemi winds haven’t arrived. September also delivers settled heat without August’s crowds.
峰会 / 节日 Surge
July and August. Rethymno is packed with Greek families and northern Europeans drawn to long, hot days and the August moon festival. Hotel prices spike 30-40% above June, and bookings need to be made by March. The local wine and raki festivals in August draw day-trippers.
预算肩部季节
Late September to mid-October and early May. Rooms drop by 20-30% from peak, and the sea stays swimmable. The town is quieter, though most tavernas and boat trips still run until late October.
天气 & 包装
July days here are dry and often above 30°C, but the coastal breeze can drop the evening temperature below 20°C. Pack a light jacket for nights on the terrace, plus a wide-brimmed hat for midday olive-grove walks – sunburn sneaks up on you fast.
城市简介 — Rethymno
- The new airport shuttle bus from Chania International Airport now stops at Rethymno’s central bus station twice daily, cutting transfer costs vs private taxis.
- Old Town pedestrianisation has been extended south to Nikiforou Foka Street; rental cars can no longer park inside the fortress walls from June to September.
- The annual Rethymno Renaissance Festival runs 27 July to 2 August this year, with medieval music and street theatre in the Fortezza – expect louder evenings and booked-out tavernas in the old quarter.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Olive tree farm, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the first floor (European first floor, one above ground) with a balcony facing the olive grove at the rear. These rooms avoid street noise from Episkopi beach road and get the afternoon sea breeze.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms near the entrance or reception — they pick up foot traffic and the rumble of luggage wheels on tile. Also avoid rooms directly facing the main road along Episkopi beach, as local traffic can be audible in peak season.
Best views
Ask for a rear-facing room (olive grove side) or a room on the first floor with a partial sea view if available. The grove view is greener and more peaceful than the roadside.
Quietest floors
First floor (one above ground) is the quietest — above street-level noise but low enough not to get wind gusts. Second floor is also quiet if the lift is well-serviced.
🔊 Noise notes
Episkopi beach road is a secondary coastal lane — light but audible traffic from late morning to midnight in summer. There is no major highway, but local vehicles, scooters, and occasional delivery vans pass. The bar/breakfast area can generate chatter until 11pm.
Insider tips
1) Park in the shaded olive grove parking area if available — it’s cooler and safer than roadside spots. 2) Request a room with a mini-fridge (not standard at 3-star) and a kettle at check-in — most rooms can accommodate these if you ask early.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Rethymno热门景点
💡 Walk to the lighthouse at the end of the pier for a quieter view — most tourists stop halfway. The water is clean for a dip if you don’t mind concrete edges.
💡 Bring nuts or bread for the peacocks that roam freely — they’re friendly but watch your bag. Best in spring when the flowers are out.
💡 Go early morning (before 9am) to see it without crowds or shopkeepers setting up — the light is golden and quiet.
💡 It’s quiet on weekday mornings — you’ll often have the rooms to yourself. The audio guide is worth the €2 extra.
💡 Buy your ticket at the small booth by the main gate, not online. Visit late afternoon when the heat drops and the sunset lights up the harbour.
