Location & Transportation

The hotel is conveniently located 5.5 miles from Rethymno town, with intercity buses connecting to various parts of Crete available nearby. The area features local amenities including shops, playgrounds, and a pharmacy within walking distance.

“While its location steps from the beach is undeniably appealing, some aspects could fall short for discerning travelers, especially families seeking diverse on-site activities. The predictable, unchanging breakfast and the additional cost for dinner drinks didn't escape my attention. For those prioritizing proximity to the sea over extensive amenities, this standard hotel makes a reasonable base, understanding there's a reliance on Rethymno for broader entertainment.”
