  : Great location - seafront, a 10 minute walk to the old town. Comfy and stylish room, with a balcony and pool/garden view. Breakfast was great - lots to choose from, with plenty of local ingredients. Super friendly and helpful staff!

  : Everything else! Great staff, great parking spot, perfect location, nice pool and beach facilities. Flawless
  : The only thing that wasn't perfect was the shower that pretty much flooded the bathroom. Also the toilet paper can't be flushed but the room was quite small so putting it in the bin was a bit of acrobatic work.

  : Great confortable room with a front view on the sea. Excellent breakfast with a wide variety of food. Private and very convenient parking 1 block away.
  : The only negative point : a high traffic road is passing between the hotel and the strand. If youre looking for quiet nights, you have to close the window and switch the air conditioner on !

  : Friendly people and very fresh room. We had a high (5th floor) room overlooking the beach - quiet enough with the balcony door closed. Probably would go for pool room if you want to ensure peace and quiet. very varied breakfast and great beach area exclusive for the hotel. 20 mins stroll from the old town with lots of inviting bars and restaurants on the way.
  : Pillow was like a bag of sand although the bed itself was very comfortable. The water pressure seemed quite low.

  : The location was great. Beach, restaurants and shopping.
  : Water wasn't hot enough for a shower. I called a few times within 2 days, and each time I called, the water got warmer. Housekeeping even came to check and confirmed. Wasn't adult only. There was a toddler staying there, making noise in the courtyard. I saw them park in the hotel parking lot, and Mom came to the front desk to ask for a way to heat a bottle.

  : We stayed for 2 nights. We had a lovely welcome when we arrived. All the staff we met were very friendly. We stayed in 2 rooms and both were large and clean. They both had kitchen areas and we were provided with plenty of cutlery and crockery. They both had good sized balconies overlooking the beach. The old and picturesque town of Rethymno was a 20 minutes walk from the hotel. The hotel provides free sun loungers on the beach. We didn't use them because the weather wasn't so good.Breakfast was buffet style in an area next to the pool, which looked clean. There was a good selection of dried fruit, nuts and seeds to add to cereal, and a wide variety of cakes, pastries etc. Someone made us fresh orange juice the first day.We had a major problem with loud people in the next room. They decided to have a drinks party starting at 1.00am which carried on to 4.00am. They had no consideration for anyone else and kept us awake the whole time. I should have complained to Reception at the time. When I raised this with the hotel next morning they immediately apologised and offered us a choice of alternative rooms. We ended up in a suite at no extra cost. Our second night was undisturbed by inconsiderate neighbours.The beds were comfortable.
  : There is some noise from the busy road as well as the more relaxing sound of the waves. There is also an issue with soundproofing between rooms.
