The location of the hotel was great because we came by car and wanted to go on excursions to different places. Parking was easy. The hotel was in a wonderful landscape by the sea. The pool and beach were nice. The family room was really clean and spacious. The ladies of the staff were friendly and helpful and we felt really at home thanks to them. Breakfasts on the terrace in a wonderful landscape were the best possible start to the day.

There is a road nearby that makes noise. It didn't bother us and it was so easy to go on trips anywhere. Some pillows were really hard.

Vacation doesn't get any better! We spent a great week in this lovely family hotel. The hospitality and warmth is something you rarely find. Plus the setting of the hotel. Beautiful views over the bay and mountains, a gorgeous garden with lots of lovely seating area. A large pool and a semi-private beach with a rif in front of it, so the water is very calm. Good snorkelling as well, we saw a lot of fish and an octopus. The room was on the seaside, spacious and light. Good beds. The breakfast has so many choices and most of it homecooked ( nutella crepes temptation). You can also eat at night at the hotel in the evening. We dined 3 nights in the hotel. Sylvia is a brilliant cook and her food is some of the best we had in Crete (and she is the sweetest person). The taverna next door is very proud of their kalimari, but hers is better! Because we were late in season (second week of October) we were twice the only ones for dinner. The taverna 2 doors down is also ok and has a nice setting. At the end of the dirt road is a nice beach bar for a drink or lunch. Good cove for snorkelling and there is a dive school. Also a coastal path starts there for walking. Mimi tavern was already closed. It is nice to hang in or around the hotel with the lovely people. But is also a good location good exploration. Only 10 minutes drive from Rethymno. Good parking at the hotel grounds. We loved it there.

The bathroom is quite small in comparison to the room and the shower is with a curtain. Sometimes the floor got a little wet. But this was a minor thing compared to all the wonderful experiences, food and the warmth & hospitality.

Great sea view even form a room with side sea view. The host and staff (especially Silvia) were so nice and willing to help with anything you asked for. Good location near Rethymnon, good starting point for day trips to Preveli and the Kurtaliotiko gorge. Thanks for the raki Mr.Kanakis ! :)

It's not up to the owner, but just be aware that rooms near the road can be a bit noisy due to the traffic when windows are open.

Here you will find good old fashion hospitality, Greek style. You are made to feel very welcome! There is a semi-private beach with small pebbles and some sand that is divine. A little further West by foot you have several sandy beaches. The breakfast buffet is really yummie and very diverse. The public bus stop is almost right at their doorstep. So if you don't plan on doing daytrips you can manage without a car. (You don't even have to go out for lunch or dinner although you should at least eat once at Mimi's taverne during your stay!) Great stay for families, couples or the solo traveler. (Only the party people won't find their needs met here.)

nothing really just be aware of traffic noise from the highway (you won't hear much on the beach as it is located a couple of metres down)

The location is perfect. 10 min drive from Rathimno, with a private beach down the stairs. 100 m' from a great Taverna. The staff was great. Make us feel at home. Mr. Kanakis is nice and he have a lovely olive oil mill with a lot of olive oil products, 10 min drive a way - very much worth a visit. The breakfast is nice with a lot of hand made cakes. For a little hotel it's worth the price

The beds not double at all the rooms and not so comfortable. The bathroom is old and small, must have an upgrade. The coffee at breakfast is an extra charge.

Nice location with beautiful small beach next door. Very friendly and nice staff. Just 5’ away from an amazing tavern, so if you’re too tired to go to town for dinner you don’t really miss having to go. Clean, spacious and bright room.

Found it difficult to sleep at night because of cars at night, but I’m a light sleeper. With doors closed and a/c open maybe it’s okay.

Super nice and friendly hotel staff and the owner mister Kanakis. I really didn't want to leave. As I had a birthday, they helped me with the cake and gave me so nice gifts, my heart melted. The hotel itself is really nice, has spacious rooms, white marble floors, and has very well maintained territory with amazing places to look at sunsets... Breakfasts were delicious and cooked with love. I definitely recommend this place!!!

Everything was perfect!

the incredible nice staff, view, beach and pool. Sylvias nice food they all felt like family-

the buses where sometimes full and didnt stop!

Lovely place, it is located just by the sea and has beautiful private beach. The owner and personel of that hotel are amazing. Language is not a barrier there as you will be well looked after by everybody who work there. Suberb breakfast which you can enjoy while looking at the sea. I really recommend that place.

Amazing location next to the beach and close to some nice tavernas. Swimming pool was great with a nice view over the sea. Watching a sunset with a glass of wine every day was idyllic for relaxation. Calm and peaceful to fully recharge. Lovely service from the ladies in the hotel.

Beds were uncomfortable, deco in general in need of updating. Lack of additional key made things complicated as our teenage children wanted to stay in sometimes, and we couldn't have our own key to open the main door to the hotel. Mr Kanakis made our kids sometimes a bit uncomfortable. It would be better to talk to us first. In general, a great stay and highly recommended place. We would stay again!
