You will reserve our really small studio(9sq meters) strictly for one person , which is a little below ground floor(about 1 meter). It is located at our shared courtyard, but there is exterior furniture for every other guest.

Barbara Studios is, and has been, a real Cretan family home, welcoming travelers coming from all over the world since 1969, respecting the meaning of the Greek word "Filoxenia". If you wish to feel like a local, then this will be your real home in Rethymno. :-)

The space
In this 1600's Venetian building, the Venetian and Ottoman heritage, the exotic scents and the magnificent architecture, all endowed to us by the lords and merchants who lived here in the ancient times, is still real and is immediately revealed when you step through the front door for the first time. The tradition of hospitality has been alive at Barbara Studios, since 1969. Barbara family's Cretan love, our love, is the same love which was generously passed to us by our ancestors born and raised in Crete, the island and the mother of world's hospitality.

Guest access
Our fourth-generation family house is a quiet and peaceful haven, for travellers that enjoy walking around, exploring the picturesque alleys of the magical old town of Rethymno, and Cretan gastronomy and hospitality. Anything you need to visit, from museums, attractions, restaurants, and coffee bars is less than 2 minutes walking. You can relax and enjoy Barbara's roof terrace and the other lovely patios and courtyards, bearing in mind that time is not important, since you are already staying in the heart of Crete, and you really feel and are really treated like a local.
