My stay at the hotel was truly enjoyable. The rooms were spacious, clean, and well-located for all amenities on the first floor. The hotel had great sunloungers and a good tub, making the stay very comfortable. The only downside was the absence of a beach bar and the need to pay for bottled water.

Upon arrival, I was delighted to find a clean and modern room with its own air conditioning unit and a remote control. The option to open the glass sliding door to let in the refreshing sea breeze was a lovely touch. The view to the pool from the room was beautiful, creating a serene atmosphere for relaxation. The double bed provided a comfortable stay.

The hotel offers stunning views with very well-used rooms but some maintenance issues like threadbare carpets and rust in the bath. The cleanliness falls short with litter and pills under the bed, grubby towels, and unpressed sheets. The service is exceptional, worth visiting for delicious meals, and the staff is very helpful. The location is a bit off, situated on the wrong side of the main road into Rethymnon, though the beach is accessible via an underpass. The dining experience is below par with limited breakfast options. The hotel facilities are adequate but in need of some improvements.

The hotel had clean and comfortable rooms with a few signs of wear at the end of the season, equipped for a relaxing stay.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The room had a bed settee for my son and was spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped. The air conditioning was good, and we enjoyed plenty of hot water and a nice tub. The most impressive part was the incredibly comfortable bed and the massive balcony with a marvelous view. However, there seemed to be a plumbing issue as the bathroom floor flooded when using the shower.
