“This Platanes hotel stands out for its dedicated staff and family-friendly vibe; spacious rooms include balconies, while the pool offers welcome shade in the afternoons. I especially appreciate the proximity to both the beach and local transport-exploring Rethymno is remarkably simple. For a relaxed and well-supported Cretan getaway, it earns my recommendation.”
