Das Personal war unglaublich nett und aufmerksam. Die Outdoor Einrichtungen sind super schön und modern. Die indoor Einrichtungen sehr alt und daher nicht so schön. Nach einer Renovierung jederzeit zu empfehlen.

Wonderful hotel in the heart of Rethymnon

5 / 5 Excellent

Wonderful hotel in the heart of the old town of Rethymnon. All was into the details: decoration, cleanliness, service, food... You are close to all major places by foot and can easily wander in the old town and enjoy the fantastic restaurants of Avli. Special thanks to Elina for her kindness and professional service. Looking forward to coming back again in this very special place

Great for relaxing holiday

5 / 5 Excellent

This boutique resort is a lovely getaway right by the beach and very close to great restaurants and bars: it’s got two great swimming pools with pool bars for relaxing. The services provided seem to be scaled down due to the pandemic situation, but nevertheless the staff are very welcoming and helpful. Best feature, personally, is a plunge pool in each room - amazing extra! I’d definitely recommend the resort for a nice, quiet, resting holiday. Ps. If you rent a car, they offer free parking space in the basement.
