Icarus Loft – Restored Early-1900s Home by the Venetian Harbor Tucked in the heart of Chania’s Old Town, just steps from the Venetian harbor, Icarus Loft is a beautifully restored early-1900s home transformed into a distinctive multi-level loft. Featuring two bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, an open living room and kitchen, and a charming rooftop terrace with Old Town views, the loft sleeps 4 comfortably (up to 7) on a quiet street moments from vibrant bars and restaurants.

Hidden within the atmospheric alleys of Chania’s Old Town, the home offers a rare vertical loft experience just moments from the Venetian harbor.

On the first floor, The Black Room provides cozy accommodation with twin beds, generous storage, and a compact private bathroom, creating a restful and functional retreat. The second floor hosts the master bedroom, featuring a queen-size bed, a full private bathroom, and a dedicated workspace — ideal for guests balancing relaxation with remote work. Ascending to the upper level, The Den offers a quiet lounge designed for reading, conversation, or relaxing on the sofa bed. From here, step onto the enchanting rooftop terrace, where views over the Old Town rooftops and glimpses of the sea create a memorable setting for morning coffee or evening wine. A sculptural open spiral staircase connects all levels, with no interior doors separating floors, enhancing the loft’s airy character and architectural drama while fostering a sense of continuous flow. **For digital nomads and extended stays**, high-speed internet supports productive work sessions — whether at the indoor desk or outdoors on the terrace surrounded by historic scenery. Set along a peaceful narrow street yet only steps from lively dining, cafés, and cultural landmarks, Icarus Loft delivers an authentic Old Town lifestyle with comfort, character, and a touch of architectural theatre.
