The Nostus team, affiliated member of the Short-Term Rental Association of Greece (STAMA), participated in the Short Stay Crete Conference, held on 23 October 2025 at the Hellenic Mediterranean University (HMU). The event brought together hundreds of professionals from the short-term and mid-term accommodation industry, including property owners, real estate experts, hospitality professionals, and local institutions.
During the conference, Nostus engaged in productive discussions with local property owners, accommodation managers, universities, and regional stakeholders, exploring opportunities for collaboration that will ensure a trusted and locally integrated network of verified listings across Crete. These exchanges allowed the team to better understand the specific dynamics, seasonality, and accommodation trends shaping Crete’s rental market. These discussions further initiated new partnerships with property managers, housing owners and higher education institutions to enhance housing options for Erasmus and international students, interns and young professionals relocating in Crete.
Mid-term accommodation and the value of industry collaboration
Attending sectoral events like the Short Stay Crete Conference plays a crucial role in advancing the mid-term accommodation ecosystem in Greece. Such platforms enable dialogue between technology providers, property owners, and education stakeholders, promoting new standards of transparency, safety, and service quality. For Nostus, these insights are essential to continuously improve its digital platform, verification protocols, and guest experience model, aligning with the growing demand from Erasmus and international students, digital nomads and professionals for secure, fully furnished, and flexible stays.
Through its expansion to Thessaloniki, Athens and now Crete, Nostus continues to support international mobility by simplifying the process of finding verified housing for midterm accommodation building local partnerships that protect both guests and hosts.
