Facing the beachfront, Nautilux Rethymno by Mage Hotels offers 5-star accommodation in Rethymno Town and features a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, fitness centre and garden. Among the various facilities of this property are a terrace, a restaurant and a bar. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi throughout the property. This has been our 7th time in Crete but the first time in Rethymno and in this Hotel. Nautilux has been a really pleasant surprise: the team is always helpfull and nice, the sea is magic and the private beach really well manteined, the 2 pools are amazing and if you choose a room on the main floor you will have direct access to a private warm water minipool. The Spa and its hot pool is well managed. Breakfast and dinner were delicious even at the end of the season. You can reach the nice Rethymno Ancien center walking 20 minutes on the "lungomare". We will come back. Thanks to the team for the nice stay .

Our room overlooked the ocean and had a private balcony. The bed was super comfortable and the bathroom was spacious. Besides the fresh fruit and drinks we were greeted with when we arrived, we found a plate of fresh melon slices, a platter of pastries and a bottle of wine in our room, a very nice touch. We loved relaxing on the beach snd swimming in the crystal clear ocean. We also appreciated that saving beach or pool chairs with towels was not allowed and was enforced.
