Greek Islands Mountain Holidays

While we were there our son went into medical distress. The staff at the store and the reception desk were absolutely amazing. So kind, caring, and thoughtful. My son and I didn’t get to finish our stay there but they sent food packages with the rest of our family for our hospital stay. At the end of the day, a hotel is just a hotel….it’s the staff and people that make the experience. 10/10 experience.

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 location on the beach. Would recommend the panoramic sea view room. Large room with a big balcony overlooking the pool, beach and sea. Good room facilities including tea, coffee, fridge, iron, ironing board. Very peaceful of an evening but just a short walk to bars, restaurants etc. and a lovely pool area.

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.

Our maisonette was huge. Towels and bedding changed frequently but the floors were not swept meaning sandy beds a few days. I would happily of brushed them had there been a brush. The aircon upstairs was brilliant. Downstairs was ancient and needs replacing. The cover actually fell of the wall onto my daughters bed! Breakfast was better earlier on around 9ish. You cpukd always get a sunbed too which is a bonus. Bar prices were similar to town and snack menu was good. It was a little too far out for us though but on the flipside it offered peace and quiet.
