Domus Renier part of the Domus Elegance Collection - a romantic address on Chania’s Old Venetian Harbour

Akti Kountourioti 41 - 42 & Moschon, Chania, Crete, 73100, Greece

Love at First Sight

Where History, Sea & Light Converge

Set directly on Chania’s Old Venetian Harbour, Domus Renier is a place where past and present meet with quiet confidence. Awarded Best Historic Hotel, the property blends Venetian elegance with contemporary refinement, offering couples a front-row seat to one of the Mediterranean’s most evocative settings. From the gentle rhythm of the sea to the ever-changing light over the harbour, every stay feels immersive, intimate, and effortlessly romantic.

Romance

Romance Framed by the Old Harbour

Romance at Domus Renier unfolds naturally, shaped by its extraordinary location. As sunset approaches, the harbour transforms — the lighthouse glows, the water softens, and evening walks along the promenade feel cinematic yet deeply personal.

For couples seeking privacy beyond the city, private sailing experiences along the Cretan coastline offer hidden coves, turquoise waters, and uninterrupted time together — ideal for honeymoons, anniversaries, or quiet celebrations of love. Back on land, intimate dining experiences rooted in local flavour and atmosphere complete evenings designed to be remembered.

Your Stay

Suites Designed for Meaningful Moments

Accommodation at Domus Renier is defined by elegance, history, and a profound sense of place. The Honeymoon Suite is designed for intimacy, featuring a private balcony overlooking the harbour — perfect for unhurried mornings above the sea and evenings with wine as the lights shimmer on the water.

The Grand Harbor Master Suite offers a more expansive expression of luxury, with generous interiors and panoramic views across the harbour, ideal for milestone celebrations and unforgettable stays.

Both suites share a rare quality: the feeling of being suspended between history, sea, and sky — with nothing to distract from the moment itself.

What to Do

Old Town Soul & Coastal Escape

Domus Renier places guests at the heart of Chania’s Old Town, where cobbled streets, hidden courtyards, and historic landmarks invite slow exploration. The harbour offers endless opportunities for romantic walks, sunset moments, and spontaneous discoveries.

Beyond the city, curated excursions — including private sailing, coastal exploration, and bespoke cultural experiences — allow couples to balance vibrant discovery with quiet retreat.

The Food of Love

Timed, Personal & Deeply Romantic

Dining at Domus Renier is shaped around timing and feeling rather than formality. Guests can enjoy in-suite breakfasts served at their preferred hour, champagne or fine wine arranged for special moments, and thoughtfully curated dining reservations overlooking the harbour or tucked away in the Old Town.

Bespoke romantic touches — from flowers and candles to handwritten notes — ensure each dining moment reflects the story being celebrated.
