Useful information about Rethymno
Rethymno Port
Rethymno Town, one prefecture of Crete located between Chania and Irakleio, which is surrounded by the Cretan Sea to the North and the Libyan Sea to the South.
Our Construction Company "OLYMPIOS" has been influenced by the Culture of Rethymno's 3500 years of history with buildings of Ancient Greek Style.
In Ancient Greece, the Capital city Rethymno was named Rithymna. It had been built on the Northern Coast of the city. Over the years the beautiful sandy beaches were created with lengths of up to 13 kilometers.
Rethymno Town with a population of 24,000 and it's surrounding villages including the old town is alive with culture. Everywhere you move around you absorb the aromas of the Cretan Cuisine and atmosphere of the Cretan way of life. The people of the town do not live with the rules of the big city; they live with the nature surrounding them and their feelings, over the rules of the big city.
Crete is the birth place of Zeus the Greek God of Hospitality.
On the outskirts of Rethymno Town is the municipality of Arkadi , 10 kms from the city centre with beaches of 20 kms long. "OLYMPIOS" are constructing: Luxurious Villas & Maisonettes
