“What struck me about this hotel is its clifftop location amid pine trees, far removed from the bustle of Rethymno. The stunning sunsets, enjoyed from a balcony, make the walk to the center worthwhile for those with good fitness. With family-friendly features, the hotel also suits couples seeking a romantic getaway with panoramic sea views.”
