Featuring free WiFi and a seasonal outdoor pool, Menta City Boutique Hotel offers accommodation in Rethymno Town. Guests can enjoy the on-site bar and sunny roof-top breakfast area.

Rooms are spacious, soundproofed, equipped with double glazed balcony doors and windows and external thermal insulation. All units have a balcony or terrace. Every room has a kitchenette, flat screen 32' TV with satellite channels, safe deposit box, kettle, slippers and hairdryer. Bathrooms are private and fitted with showers and hydro massage panels. Toiletries and bed linen are provided for your care. Beautiful hotel. The pool was quite big! And the pool área is really nice to chill in. Our room was clean, well equiped and beautiful. Staff went above and beyond to help us with our every need. You will have a superb view while eating breakfast which is homemade. Parking in the área can be difficult but old town is just 10 minutes down the street and when you want to go back you can catch a taxi for 5 euro which we did every night. Stay here as many nights as you can!!!

Just 50 metres from the beach and 1 km from Rethymno Town, Archipelagos Hotel is set on a hillside with panoramic views over the Cretan Sea and the Venetian Castle. Facilities include an outdoor communal pool and private pools, a pool bar and free WiFi. Our stay at Archipelagos Hotel in Rethymno was nothing short of exceptional. Although it’s officially rated as a 4-star hotel, for us, it felt every bit like a 5-star experience — and more. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the hotel’s manager, Mr. Stelios. He greeted us with a genuine smile and made us feel at home right away. Throughout our stay, he was constantly present, offering thoughtful recommendations for places to eat, beaches to visit, and local attractions we might have otherwise missed. Thanks to his insight, we got to explore the real, vibrant side of Crete — not just the touristy parts. Stelios has a rare gift. He understands people, anticipates their needs, and makes you feel like more than just a guest — he makes you feel like a friend. You can tell he's been in this business for a long time, and he truly loves what he does. We've already promised to return in the next couple of years, this time with our child — and I can’t wait to see Stelios again and experience his warm hospitality once more. The hotel itself is spotless. Our room was recently renovated — everything smelled fresh and new, the bed was incredibly comfortable, the air conditioning worked perfectly, and the view... breathtaking. One of the best in Rethymno. The spacious balcony was also a great bonus. The breakfast was fresh and diverse every morning, with options for every taste. The food by the pool was a huge (and delicious) surprise — high-quality, beautifully prepared, and served quickly. The entire staff was polite, efficient, and always ready to help. Housekeeping was impeccable — not just surface-level cleaning, but real attention to detail. Archipelagos isn’t just a place to stay. It’s a place to feel welcome, to feel cared for, to relax, and to make memories. Mr. Stelios and his team created something special here — and we’ll always be grateful for it.

Featuring an a la carte restaurant, Elafonisi Resort by Kalomirakis Family is set amidst a garden with olive trees. It offers air-conditioned accommodation, some self-catering, and free Wi-Fi in public areas. The popular Elafonisi Beach is 650 metres away. Well equiped room for visiting the best island in Crete, Elafonisi! We had our own parking and as soon as you walk out of the resort, you start your walk to this amazing beach! There isn't anything around the town so thankgooness they had their own restaurant where we ate fantastic Greek food at very affordable prices. They even do breakfast! There is also a supermarket up the road (mini one across the road but pricey) Would recommend if you are visiting the beach especially as sunbeds are sold out by 10am, you can walk down at 9am to purchase, leave your towels there and head down later during the day. The host was wonderful too! Cannot fault this place at all!

The all- inclusive program is valid till 24:00 and dining options include Cretan, Mediterranean and international cuisine. A total of 7 restaurants, 6 snack points and 10 bars are available on site. Features include dietary, lactose & gluten-free menus, theme nights and romantic dining next to the seafront. We loved the village feel of the resort. It felt safe and there was plenty for the children and adults to do alike. It was great to see such a mix of people. The resort was clean and well looked after, the staff were excellent and always on hand to help. We didn’t want for anything. We will certainly return to Creta Maris.

Aphrodite Beach Hotel is located on the sandy beach of Mavros Molos in Kissamos. It features a swimming pool, umbrellas and sunbeds on the beach and offers free WiFi throughout.

Each with a furnished balcony with sea, garden or mountain views, the spacious units at Aphrodite Beach include air conditioning, a satellite TV, hairdryer, toiletries and safe. A wonderful hotel! Although Google Maps showed it as a two-star hotel, it definitely deserves at least four. The apartments are newly furnished with a beautiful design. Breakfast could perhaps have a bit more variety, but everything was tasty. The beach is excellent, with comfortable sunbeds, and the bar is open from early morning until late at night — something the neighboring hotel didn’t have. Small details like these truly create a very good overall impression. Many thanks to the hostess for her care. It’s a pity we couldn’t extend our stay. Thank you! Sincerely, Vytautas and Vilija
