Excellent place. Great location, walking convenience to everything needed for the nice vacation. Beach, water activities like paragliding and jetski, dining, bars, tours, old town, shopping, etc. The hotel itself is well maintained, great service and useful amenities at the hotel itself, like pools, deck, spa, dining and cafe. Will consider staying there again.

Really enjoyed our stay here, the hotel and room was immaculate condition. Shame the pool was a bit too cold at end of October but made use of the warm indoor pool and jacuzzi. Breakfast had a great choice and staff could not have been more friendly. Highly recommend. Only downfall was our room was supposed to be full sea view but more like partial sea view from first floor as part of hotel building blocked the majority of the sea view from our balcony.

Great quality hotel with all amenities
Had a great stay here! I have stayed here before and probably will again. The breakfast is exceptionally good and all else is great but two minor inconveniences: the gym could be open maybe an hour or two more (today it closes at 6 pm) and there aren't that many sunbeds at the hotel main pool (but I mostly used the beach anyways which is right outside of the hotel) and the

Could be better for a 5-star resort
Overall aan excellent stay. Quite impeccable. Two things however for a 5-star hotel, there should be parking facilities options. We are left own our own. Options could include an underground garage, possibly off valet parking (with a fee) or at the very least, clear indications with maps of the locations of paid parking lots. Second thing, again a 5-star hotel should have either freshly squeezed orange juice or at least pitchers of none-concentrated OJ. Certainly not pale OJ from a fountain dispenser.

Tres bon sejour a refaire
Bel hotel. Tres bien placé, en face de la plage et environ 15 minutes de la vieille ville, proche de commerces, restaurants. Le personnel est tres sympathique, souriant, disponible, professionnel a tous les niveaux (plage,restaurants, bar,réception,... supers équipes). Hotel bien entretenu. Tres bonnes prestations aux restaurants (repas variés , beaucoup de choix!). En septembre, beaucoup de places piscines et plage Seul petit bémol: le ménage dans la chambre est trop rapidement "expédié" (en 2 semaines certaines lacunes: toilettes, sols, balcon..). Un tres bon séjour a renouveler!

Mycket bra läge, wow frukost!!!
Ett riktigt bra läge precis vid stranden och ca 15 min till gamla stan som som är vackert med sina gränder som aldrig tar slut. Dem har 2 st poolområden ute 1 inne men solstolar är det tyvärr lite för få av men det finns stolar och egna strandstolar om man gillar havet. Frukosten var otroligt bra med mycket variation. Kändes lite slitet så 4+ stjärnor för min del. Kommer gärna tillbaka.

Wie waren im allgemeinen zufrieden mit dem Hotel. Positiv fanden wir vor allem die Lage in Rethymno. Zu Fuß war die Stadtmitte schnell zu erreichen, wo es zahlreiche Geschäfte, Restaurants und auch Bars mit guter(lauter)Musik gab. Ebenso waren die Mitarbeiter und Mitarbeiterinnen immer sehr freundlich und haben sich gut um einen gekümmert. Das Hotel war sauber und das Zimmer wird auch regelmäßig gereinigt, wenn man das so möchte. Aktivitäten gab es auch einige, allerdings waren diese eher minimal. Wer hier ein Hotel mit vollem Programm sucht, wo die Animation viele verschiedene Dinge anbietet und sehr aktiv im Animieren ist, ist hier eher nicht richtig. Wir haben das aber nicht gebraucht, weshalb wir es ganz angenehm fanden, dass man einfach wenn man Lust hat selbst zu den Aktivitäten gehen kann.Es wurden Pilates, Step, Yoga, Stretching, aber auch Boccia angeboten.Die Pools sind eher relativ klein und deshalb relativ schnell voll, wenn man nicht rechtzeitig zu den Liegen geht. Das hat uns aber auch nicht weiter gestört, denn wir wollten eher an den Strand. Der Strand ist durch die gut befahrene Hauptstraße abgetrennt, die man überqueren muss, um zu dem Hoteleigenen Abschnitt mit Liegen und Schirmen zu gelangen. Das hat uns aber tatsächlich auch nicht unbedingt gestört, da der Strand ganz schön war. Essen fanden wir auch gut. Es war in der Regel abwechslungsreich. Abends gab es auch Musikprogramme, die auch schön waren. Es gibt einen kleinen Fitnessbereich und einen Spa.

Verkligen ett otroligt hotell med ypperlig service. De lever upp till sin rankning! Fin strand med privata solstolar på stranden som ingår. Helt OTROLIG frukost med stor variation. De gör verkligen det lilla extra för gästerna. Vi fick välkomsvin och frukt på rummet. Personalen var alltid nära till hands. Rethymnon stan var nära att promenera till och vägen dit var härlig att gå. Stranden utanför är perfekt att stå på för att se den vackra solnedgången. 10/10 och vi kommer gärna tillbaka!

Hotellet overrasket positivt. Hotellets område har høy standard, mye finere og bedre enn det fremkommer på nettet og hjemmeside. Treningssenteret kunne vært bedre og hatt utvidede åpning og stengetider. Stort utvalg på frokost, manglet bare ferske brød. Men alt i alt så var vi kjempefornøyde!!!! Vi hadde kun frokost og glade for det. Finnes MANGE fantastiske restauranter i gamlebyen.
