“Leonidas Hotel & Apartments hits a sweet spot, steps from Rethymno's beach with kitchenettes ready for your own Cretan feasts. It's a family affair here, so expect warmth, plus insider tips on local diving and cycling. I especially like that you can easily walk to the old town, then come back for a quiet drink on your balcony.”
