“I think that this family-run hotel distinguishes itself with authentic Cretan hospitality near both Platanias and Rethymno beaches, and I noticed that the spacious rooms all have big balconies. The outdoor pool sits within colorful gardens, and that is a particularly nice feature for families with children. For me, it's a charming resort that focuses on a welcoming atmosphere.”
