Greek Islands Mountain Holidays

It was just as described, right out of a village, so nice

Great location with a bus stopping outside and fantastic sea views. The only thing that let the hotel down was the rooms. It was windy and the wind blew through the rooms, meaning most of our party couldn't sleep. Housekeeping was also poor with soap/shampoo etc, not being replaced and the incorrect number of towels being left.

Excellent experience. Will go back for sure

I had a good time this past weekend at Delina Mountain Resort in Anogia, south of Rethymno, here on Crete. But I have learned, once again, not to trust Apple Maps, or Google Maps. Both of them took me down a closed road with construction equipment and a missing bridge. Normally I might find that amusing, but I was anxious to get to the resort after a 2 ½ hour drive. I chose my own way around that mess and arrived at the resort an hour later. This was a quiet and peaceful place with only 13 rooms. I think it was just me and maybe two other guests. The cafe, across the manmade pond, kept busy all the time, presumably from local villagers coming to eat. The pork chops were on par with pork chops at most village tavernas. The fava beans I had the next day were quite good. The owner of this resort is a famous Greek singer, but I didn’t get his name. He performed at the cafe Sunday evening and well over 100 people came to watch and enjoy food and drink. I listened from my private balcony. The breakfast was room service only, which I ordered when I checked in. I chose 9 am for my delivery time and there was a knock on my door at exactly 9 am. I’m impressed with their punctuality. The breakfast buffet was closed because of Covid, the same with their indoor heated pool. All in all, a relaxing weekend.

The resort was well maintained and the food provided was delicious. The staff was very friendly and accommodating

Nice clean hotel in quiet location

This house was so adorable! We were running extremely late do to a change in our flight but the owner stayed up to greet us. She showed us around the village and where the stores were. Even offered to check on us if we needed it. The house itself was cozy and well kept. We had the pleasure of having a nice dog hang out outside our door. We did run into some issues back home that caused us to have to leave early. The owner was very kind and even offered us a deal so our money wasn't going to be waste for when we return. I'm looking forward to coming back once everything back home has settled down. Thank you so much for the amazing time. I live in the mountains and this truly felt like home.
