Everthing was really nice, from the begining on i stept into that place i felt i was in vacation. The location could not be better.
The Kitchen in the Studio is not really needed, specially if there is not really anything to cook with. So eather put some more things in the kitchen to actually cook or take it out🙂

The staff was hilarious. Thanks to Irakli, the whole reception desk, the restaurant staff, and everyone there. All of them were super supportive. We arrived at 7 AM, Irakli kindly organized breakfast for us, and early check-in with no additional fee, they resolved any problem we had really promptly. The hotel was clean and tight, the swimming pools very nice and cozy, my children loved it a lot. Supermarkets and the best restaurants in the area are nearby. I would definitely stay there again.
GYM was inconvenient, there were a few dumbbells and little variations of weight (there were like 3-6kg and the next ones were 15-20kg). Table games in the children's playroom were mostly in Greek, which we don't read.

The staff were all exceptionally friendly and could not be more helpful. The pool was lovely and clean and refreshing, and the sunbeds had thick cushions and were comfortable. Breakfast buffet was vast and tasty. The room was spacious.
The pool is at the front of the hotel, and there is a road between the hotel and the beach so it can be a little noisey with traffic when lying by the pool. The sunbeds on the beach do not have thick cushions so are not as comfortable as the pool ones. Music is played in the restaurant from the start of breakfast (7am I think) and if you are in the sea view suites, you can hear it. Sensitive sleepers might want to book a different room. The shower in the room kept going very hot and then cold and the shower head is tiny.

The service was great, all the people working there were professional, friendly, and happy to assist with any request. Chrysa, the person responsible for the kids’ activities and play area was amazing, our daughter loved her and played with her every day, so this gave us time to actually rest during this trip! We did not expect this service, I don’t remember reading about it, so it was a pleasant surprise. Thank you Chrysa for your professionalism as well as the good vibes. Vasso at the restaurant was also amazing, friendly and professional, she always knew what we needed before we even ask for it. A great person that we will also remember. The hotel itself was surprisingly good, I think they need to update some of the pictures on booking, and they also need to paint that blue wall that ruins the effort to look fresh and neat. Luckily everything else looked great. The breakfast was excellent, rich in options and very tasty, as well as the options for snacks by the pool. The hotel has 3 pools - I don’t even remember seeing the 3rd one on the photos. They also offer parking space which was not mentioned on booking. All in all, a lovely experience.
Honestly, the only person who gave us a not-great impression was the restaurant manager who seemed to be always nervous around and especially critical with the staff. Only giving this feedback because it was a shame to have this kind of attitude around. The staff was super professional, friendly, and doing their best.

- Breakfast was exceptional! Huge range of food from cereals, fruits and pastries to hot food, with some daily variations meaning you could try different Greek/Cretan specialities each day. - Our room (one bedroom, first floor apartment with kitchenette and balcony) was comfortable and we were upgraded to a room with a sea view. The bed was huge and very comfortable and the shower was lovely! - Location - right on the beach with comfortable sunbeds and umbrellas which are free for customers to use. Shops and great restaurants nearby (see Vatania next door and Thymari just around the corner, as well as many others we didn't get to try) and Rethmynon Old Town is a 20-25 minute walk along the beach front (on a flat and paved walk way) or alternatively, there is a well-serviced taxi rank a minute walk away. We hired a car and the property is well connected to Heraklion, Chania & the rest of the island via an excellent main road which was easy to navigate. - Staff - the staff were INCREDIBLE and made our stay so wonderful. Friendly and attentive, they couldnt do enough to help, providing recommendations and helping us improve our Greek language skills. Special shout-out to Christina on reception and Eleni in the breakfast team who we were very to say goodbye to! - Value for money - we stayed early May 2023 and were on a bit of a bit of a budget but I couldn't believe the quality of accommodation, services, facilities, breakfast and accomodation available here. Will definitely return if we come back to Rethmynon in the future. - Facilities - the weather wasn't great during our stay so we didn't use the pools but the pool areas are lovely and well maintained. There is also a lounge area which was very relaxing and the indoor and outdoor breakfast areas were both wonderful .
Parking - there is no parking at the hotel (which we knew before booking) and although there is free public parking a minutes walk away which we did manage to get spaces in during this stay, I think it would be very difficult during high season. However a car isn't essential and the island seems reasonably connected by public transport. Kitchenette essentials - we had the basics but no chopping board, tea towel, scissors etc. The kitchenette was fine to prepare light meals but I would have struggled to do any proper cooking.

The team was very kind & friendly and we really felt very welcomed! Great location with a wonderful clean and not crowded (in may) sandy beach right across the street. Very nice familyrun meze restaurant and a supermarket next door. The rooms offer good space, some with quite many stairs to/in the rooms. Beautiful pool & architecture. We enjoyed our stay very much!
Unfortunately I broke my leg during our stay in the hotel. As I couldn’t attend a single (paid) breakfast, my husband brought me coffee to the room. It was 15min after breakfasttime and we had to pay for it extra. Also he was told he has to bring back the tableware afterwards by himself. Due to the emergency situation we were in, this left a bit bad aftertaste.

Staf was great Food was ok Own beach side & can order food, drinks and snacks from the hotel.
Bathroom appliances were more or less falling apart. Located quite far from city center - need taxi to get there; on the good side a ride to the center costed 5€ (standard). I had the feeling it was overpriced.

We had a brilliant stay. Amazing location. Good facilities and we really liked staying in a smaller hotel for a change. Staff were amazing - in particular eleni at breakfast. Just has a good vibe abs good decor
I was given a different room to the one I paid for on the first night. I arrived late and tired and it had creepy crawlers but the next day they swiftly moved me to a great room

boutique hotel on the outskirts of old town, perfect pied a terre to explore rethymno area, property and pool area is beautiful and well maintained, rooms have been recently refurnished and Christina & front staff were very helpful and attentive. we had a beautiful sunset view and very spacious room.
even though bathroom was comfortable and very clean, it lacked the contemporary design you’d expect in a 4-star hotel, it was still a wonderful stay

The rooms were clean and we were satisfied overall. Despite it being next to a main street, it wasn't too noisy. The pools were never too crowded and there was easy access to the beach. Staff is mostly kind (especially reception and kitchen was delightful).
As vegans, we were missing some plant based options (we informed them in advance and reminded them at arrival). Also sometimes they were not able to answer questions about the food and almost gave us things that had cow cheese in it.
