This charming, boutique-style hotel is ideal for families and couples, located very close to the beach and just a short hop from Rethymnon.
With its intimate Greek village ambiance, the hotel features three outdoor pools. The rooms are apartment-style and come in various sizes, making them perfect for families. There is also an on-site restaurant.
If you're looking for a friendly, family-oriented boutique hotel without the kids clubs and slides, this is the place for you. If this sounds like your kind of getaway, please get in touch for more details and a quote.
This city has been on my must-visit list for quite some time, so I was thrilled to finally experience it firsthandโand it did not disappoint. Rethymnon is a charming medieval city with a rich blend of Venetian and Turkish influences. Itโs a labyrinth of narrow streets filled with bars, shops, and authentic restaurants, perfect for wandering and exploring.
Although our visit was brief, we enjoyed roaming the streets. Unfortunately, I didnโt have time to visit the picturesque harbor or the imposing fortress that dominates the city. These landmarks are now top of my list for my next visit.
If youโre interested in staying in Rethymnon or one of its nearby beach resorts, feel free to contact me for a quote and more information about this beautiful area of Crete.
What can I say? This hotel was absolutely stunningโdefinitely my kind of place! Sleek, contemporary, quiet, and luxuriousโwhat's not to love?
Set directly on the beach and just a short taxi or bus ride from Rethymnon, the location is perfect.
The resort offers executive suites with private pools or jacuzzis and sea front views, along with junior suites and superior doubles, all equipped with every luxury you can imagine. Accommodations are on a half-board basis.
Thereโs a beautiful main restaurant and two ร la carte options, all with exquisite settings. We had lunch at the beachside restaurant, and it was stunning. We dined like royalty on traditional Cretan food with a contemporary twistโtotally amazing.
Overall, I absolutely loved this hotel. If youโre seeking adult-only peace and quiet in a luxurious setting, this place is perfect. I would stay here again without hesitation.
If this sounds like your cup of tea, why not contact me for more information and a quote?
For the first two nights of my trip, I stayed at a stunning hotel in Panormos, conveniently close to Rethymnon.
I was allocated a Garden View Bungalow, which exceeded my expectations with its spacious layout. The bungalow featured a separate room with a sofa bed, a modern bathroom with a rain shower, a well-stocked minibar, and a generously sized bedroom. Outside, I enjoyed a quaint bistro table and chairs in a charming courtyard area. The hotel offers a variety of accommodations, including swim-up pools, sea views, whirlpools, and rooms of different sizes to suit various preferences.
This hotel is perfect for families and couples seeking a contemporary, stylish retreat with a wide range of dining options on an all-inclusive basis. The hotel boasts several pools, from the lively main pool to more serene and quieter options.
The dining options here are plentiful and diverse. The main restaurant impressed me with its extensive selection, including show cooking and both indoor and outdoor seating areas. Other dining options include Italian and Greek cuisine (which I'll delve into in another post), an ร la carte restaurant, and various bars, each with its own unique ambiance. I also heard that a sushi bar is set to open soon, adding even more variety.
The beaches are a mix of shingle and sand, set in picturesque rocky bays rather than expansive sandy shores. While beautiful, this area of the resort has a bit of an incline, which might not be ideal for those with walking difficulties.
Overall, I was thoroughly impressed with this hotel and would gladly return for another stay. I highly recommend it to those who aren't heavily beach-focused and appreciate the beauty of rocky coves and lovely pools in a contemporary setting.
If you have any questions or would like a quote for this hotel, please feel free to message me.

Cities: New York, Boston, Venice, Rome, Krakow, Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam, Gothenburg, Cairo and Barcelona.
