    buffet breakfast
    soundproofing issues
    outside noise

    Spent 6 nights and the buffet breakfast was a real highlight-such a feast! But our room could've used better soundproofing-could hear the noise from outside. A solid stay, though.

    The superior double room with sea view was very poor , with cheap furniture and an old fashion wc. It was very expensive for a room like that. They said it was renewed three years ago but it looks like they did a make-up only. The contrast with the exterior golding look of the hotel only make it worse.

    Consider requesting a room with a higher floor for a better view and less noise from the pool area.

    breakfast buffet
    sparkling wine
    repetitive entertainment

    Had a grand time! The breakfast buffet was top-notch, plenty of hot and cold options, and the sparklin' wine in the mornin' was a lovely touch. Only downside? The entertainment felt a bit repetitive by the end of my stay. Still, I’d be mighty happy to return!

    Lovely vibes in Rethymno 🌊

    Man, the location is just lekker! Beach right in front and a short stroll to the Old Town. Staff were really friendly, especially at that outside bar for late-night dop. Plus, brekkie had a nice variety, very festive!...

    Sure, the beach area is nice, but the pool scene is a mess. There just aren't enough sunbeds to cater to the crowd, and getting to the pool after breakfast is a gamble. The dining options are also limited. Vegetarian selections are scarce, so expect repetitive meals if you don't want fries every night. As for room views, our supposed sea view was more like a peek over the street-felt misled. And let's not get started on the drink prices-€4.80 for a bottle of water? Seriously? It's a bit of a wallet punch.

    Great spot by the beach!

    We were really impressed with the friendly staff, especially the bar crew. The beach is super close, and there were plenty of sunbeds! The balcony view from our room was lovely. Just wish the dining area had more cozy vibes-felt kinda plain. Nice stay for a family getaway!

    limited sunbeds

    The road between the hotel and the beach remains pedestrian-unfriendly due to heavy traffic. The pool area could use more sunbeds as early arrivals exploited the limited space, leaving later guests scrambling for a spot. Lastly, our room's safe wasn't secured properly, causing a bit of unease .

    Great Location with Friendly Staff

    We enjoyed our stay, especially the friendliness of the staff. The proximity to the beach was fantastic. Breakfast offered many options, but consider dining in nearby Rethymno for variety. If you're gluten-free, ask the staff about special meal arrangements!
