The rooms and property were fantastic, and the staff were super friendly and helpful. The view was beautiful and the food was delicious, great service! The only difficulty was finding parking for our rental vehicle but that is true for every hotel near the beach. It’s on the outer edge of Rethymno, making the location less crowded than the old town streets near the port. It takes about 25 minutes to walk to the port from the hotel, but we didn’t mind the walk. We would absolutely book here again.

The hotel needs to take into consideration the very low chairs which counted as sofas which are extremely uncomfortable. No table to eat only a small low coffee table and again extremely uncomfortable outside chairs. One small rack to hang your towels No space to place 2 toiletries bags. Staff were friendly enough. We won’t be returning to this hotel unfortunately on our next travels back to Crete.

Don’t get me wrong, the suite was just wonderful. The room I booked overlooked the sea and I slept to the sound of waves. Gorgeous. The only reason I gave 3 stars instead of 1 for the staff was the young man who checked me in first night. He was absolutely lovely!! They need to just have him and him alone at the front desk. The cleaning crew were also very nice and greeted me when they saw me, they were way nicer than the rest of the front staff. Not that they were rude or anything but not warm either. Maybe it’s a Cretan thing because that’s exactly how most people were around the island. One of the staff even asked me if I was staying there when I made an inquiry regarding breakfast!! I’m sure the hotel has a reason for this but I know what that question meant. Overall, the hotel itself is absolutely lovely and right by the water!

My wife and I stayed here for our elopement/honeymoon, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Our room was the Suite, Sea View (Split Level) and it was lovely. Spacious bed, plenty of space in the room, and comfy furniture. The staff was phenomenal! The cleaning staff was always prompt and detail oriented. The reception crew was knowledgeable, insightful, and wonderfully friendly. The private beach itself was perfect. It was quiet and away from the other resorts/hotels on the beach that it really did feel like a private location. We will be booking here again when we make it back to Rethymno.

Our stay was absolutely incredible! The staff were extremely attentive and made a conscious effort to get to know us, especially Kostas(?) (and our coffee orders!). The breakfast spread was wide and varied each day and is run smoothly, self served and on the glorious terrace overlooking the sea. Our side view room had everything we needed and the addition of the terrace overlooking the restaurant and ocean was perfect. Having access to the beach was a particular highlight for us, with sun loungers and beach towels provided. We found the location of the hotel ideal, with a row of restaurants less than a 5 min walk away, as well as the restaurant at the hotel (which had exception food and cocktails!). Also a 20 min walk to the Old Town. Overall a perfect trip, would definitely come back!

This is a beautiful hotel with excellent, comfy beds, great staff and it's on the sea! The beach nearby is pebbly and it's a 25 minute walk to the old town - not a huge amount to do in the immediate area, but the hotel itself more than makes up for that!

Charming property and one of the best parts is the view which is just spectacular, you can’t get any closer to the sea! The room and breakfast were nice and we had one meal in the restaurant which was lovely and had a great atmosphere. It’s located outside the main area of Rethymno but worth it for its charm and an easy taxi ride away!

Wonderful oceanfront hotel, with a decent restaurant and fantastic breakfast. Spacious and very comfortable rooms with high ceilings and loft bedrooms. We had to leave early in the morning to catch a flight, so the staff packed us a nice breakfast the night before and left it in the mini fridge in our room for us. If you have a rental car, there is no parking at the hotel but there is a free lot a short walk up the road that the staff will direct you to.

The 2nd floor room was excellent. The view, the peace, the cleanliness, simply a dream. It should have a larger closet, if you're staying for 2 weeks, the current one isn't enough for 2 people. The staff was very helpful and nice, as was the restaurant staff. The seafood was excellently prepared, I have never had better seafood anywhere in Crete. If we go to Crete again, we will definitely stay in the same hotel.

The reviews don’t lie, great property and friendly hospitable staff. Especially loved the peace and quiet and being able to relax with a glass of wine on the balcony while listening to the sound of the sea and enjoying its breeze. Small boutique hotel outside of the hustle and bustle of old town with a private beach. Great restaurants within walking distance Prima Plora and their own Thalassa Seafood restaurant. My room was comfortable, but the bedroom area was a little warm. I’m sure they would’ve adjusted the temperatures if I had asked. As a female traveling alone I felt safe. Will be back!

Right on the sea

Amazing location right on the ocean with a small brown sand/stone beach to one side. Beach towels are supplied by the hotel. Although it’s a bit out of the old town, the local bus stop is across the road so it’s easy to get around. The room was very clean and the bed comfy. In our room the bed was in a loft reached by stairs. There is a small fridge, sink and coffee making facilities. Breakfast was included which was a fairly standard buffet. Staff were all friendly and helpful - overall an enjoyable stay.

Sea view split level suite was excellent. Very clean and the best views. Slight smell from drainage but didn't spoil the holiday. Hotel staff were amazing. Helpful and friendly. The restaurant was run separately so could not charge meals to room. Other restaurants nearby. Would recommend Cabo. Lovely views, food and staff. However, breakfast was included so no probs there. Enjoyed the varied buffet breakfast. Pool is small and on the roadside so noisy at times. Small beach area for the hotel but we had a lovely patio outside the room. 20 minute walk into the Old Town along a very busy, noisy main road.

Nice comfy room

Everything was great. Except two little things. They have no parking and you need to find parking on the street. Good luck when it’s summertime. Occasionally the sewer smell which is not their fault but the fault of the town. What they attend to it right away when there is the smell. Otherwise, a nice little boutique hotel located right on the water with a small balcony which is just perfect.

Great place to stay in Rethymno!

This hotel was one of our favorites over our 3 week holiday on Crete. Many other reviewers commented on the lack of parking so we proactively reached out to the hotel to get recommendations on where to park. There is a free lot about 100 meters from the hotel. It's a gravel lot, but it did the job. There is a small pull out where you can drop your luggage quickly before you move the car. From the reception to the wait staff this hotel was on point. The room was spacious and modern and comfortable with a lovely balcony overlooking the water. The hotel has it's own restaurant and bar which is quite delicious. The private beach, like most Crete beaches, is rocky and water shoes are a good choice, but it is quiet and the water is clean and warm. We truly enjoyed our stay! It is a bit too far to walk to Old Town but the cabs are cheap and a good way to get back and forth (even if you have a car - the cab is a good way to get to Old Town).

Sea front suite in Rethymno

I booked a Jr. suite and it is very nicely appointed. The air conditioning works perfectly. The room is maintained nicely and I had a loft bedroom facing the sea with a small balcony overlooking the sea. The decor was very nice with a living area with sofa, cocktail table. The in room safe was not bolted very odd and concerning they need to correct that. I had two bathrooms one on the main level with large shower and one in the loft bedroom a large circular sinker tub very nice to take a nice hot soak. Breakfast was very nice buffet with a large sweet and savoury selection including fresh fruit, fresh squeezed orange juice, very nice coffee. The lighting in my room is also very nice and thought out. The location is a bit far from Old town Rethymno a 30 minute walk but the local bus, walk or taxi will get you there fast. The upside is you are on the beach and have loungers and a semi private beach at your disposal. There are also some very fine dining options within one block and at the property were you can dine on the ocean and enjoy a very nice sunset.
