About

United Colors of Benetton in Crete occupies Αρκαδίου 209, Eleftheríou Venizélou 58, Rethymno 741 31, in the heart of the island's third city. The venue is a clothing store, which places it among the island's retail addresses rather than its tavernas or guest houses. It is known for branded clothing across the sizes and lines the label carries. Visitors rate it at 3.9 out of 5 from 77 reviews, a mixed record across a fair number of shoppers. Its website, http://www.maroudas.com.gr/, is the online point of reference for the shop.

Rethymno sits on the north coast between Chania and Heraklion, so the venue is easy to reach from the resorts along that stretch of Crete. Shoppers travelling from Agios Nikolaos, Ierapetra or Sitia cross to the island's northern side to reach this part of Rethymno. The shop draws a steady local following alongside visitors, and the 77 reviews gathered so far reflect that mix. Its position on a central retail street keeps it within walking distance of the rest of the town centre.

First-time visitors should expect a city-centre shop rather than a resort boutique. The store carries the label's clothing lines in the sizes stocked on the racks, and browsing takes only as long as a normal retail visit. Opening onto a busy pedestrian stretch, it suits a stop worked into a morning of errands or sightseeing.

Island bakeries sell spanakopita and tyropita, and vineyards on Santorini, Crete and Paros produce local wines, which is the sort of thing to look for nearby after shopping. Daily life on Crete slows through the afternoon, and tavernas serve late into the evening, so a morning visit fits the rhythm of the day. Matala and Elafonisi lie within reach for anyone extending the trip toward the coast.
