We recently had the pleasure of staying at this newly opened hotel and our experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we made our reservation with Eva, who was remarkably helpful, to the warm welcomes and local recommendations from George and Spyros, every interaction was marked by genuine hospitality and meticulous attention to detail. The hotel itself boasts a prime location, easily accessible with complimentary parking right at the front, which is a major convenience. The facilities are modern and fully equipped to cater to every need, ensuring a special and comfortable stay. Our visit was made even more memorable as we were celebrating my husband’s birthday. The staff went above and beyond to surprise him with a beautifully arranged birthday cake, wine, fruits, and festive balloons. These thoughtful touches truly enhanced our celebration and his delight was a testament to their efforts. We are already looking forward to our next stay at this wonderful hotel, where they make you feel not just welcomed, but truly special. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a superior hospitality experience!

The place is beautiful and totally spotless. The rooms and the common areas are really comfortable and well equipped. The staff is extremely kind and helpful. The breakfast has a good combination of international stuff and Greek products. Also, the hotel is located in a central spot, next to the city center and the harbour, where all the shops and restaurants are. highly recommended!

The breakfast was incredible. There was so much choice, and the food was all really high quality. Moreover, the staff are all so polite, helpful and well-trained (some of the nicest hotel staff we've ever experienced). We were there for the hotel's last week of operation at the end of its 2024 season, so there was no dinner buffet. Instead, there was a set menu (but we could still order as much as we'd like from this), but this was still great quality. Our only wish would have been for it to include a few more traditional Greek dishes. The room was great. We were in a Verdant Room (slightly bigger than their standard rooms). We would thoroughly recommend it. The bed was super comfy and spacious, and the bathroom was great, too. The only thing that could improve it would be more hooks from which to hang clothes. The pools are amazing. We went in November, so it was a bit too chilly to swim in the outdoor pools, but the indoor pool was great - warm and relaxing but still big enough to do lengths. The gym was good - for anyone who knows how to be creative with their resistance training, the cable multi-gym they have still allows you to do a lot (this is coming from someone who has spent 10+ years working in the health & fitness space). The location is also great, as the hotel itself is very close to Rethymno (if you like walking, it takes about 40 minutes to get to the Old Town). If not, it's a 10-15 minute drive. Overall, it's a fantastic 5* hotel that we would recommend to anyone wanting to experience Crete in a bit of luxury. We will definitely return when we next visit Crete (which we will do, as there is so much to see!)

Definitely one of the nicest hotels I've ever stayed at! The 2nd floor rooms with the private pool are beautiful and very well maintained. Staff was very nice and the breakfast served each morning in the room was excellent. The hotel is a short drive to several very nice beaches. The hotel was expensive but worth it!

FAQs about hotels on Crete

Centuries of History, Days of Sunshine

The largest Greek island, mountainous Crete has stunning beaches, plenty of history and as much or little nightlife as you want. Party town Malia has many bars, clubs and restaurants on its Strip.

Along the coast is the capital Heraklion, a bustling city home to many Crete hotels on the beach, and a Venetian castle guarding its port. Its archaeological museum includes finds from the island’s Minoan era, while just inland are the Roman remains of Knossos.

Also boasting a Venetian castle is Rethymnon, a popular resort with a good number of Crete hotels with private pools on Booking.com. Loggerhead turtles nest in season on the sandy beaches here and at Chania, an important port with an attractive waterfront set against the backdrop of mountains.

On the other side of the island is Aghios Nikolaos, a small fishing town with a picturesque harbour. Just north is Elounda, a popular family resort, and offshore is Spinaloga island, inspiration behind the book ‘The Island’. Matala in the south has a bohemian vibe and intriguing cliff dwellings, while Paleokastro in the east borders Europe’s largest palm forest at Vai.

We could go on and on about magnificent Crete beaches, but whichever resort you choose, you can be almost guaranteed fantastic food and a good helping of sunshine.
