"The room was very pleasant and clean. Loved having a clothes washing machine. The only thing I can say is the location is definitely not in the “old town”. It is about a 25 minute walk into the beauty of the town. Disappointed that we did not have a very good view of the sea as advertised. None the less, The room was clean, quiet and comfortable bed."

"Lovely apartment with hotel-type facilities in an excellent beachfront location. Well appointed and great pool. Very quiet place, ideal for getting away from it all."

"This was by far the most unique, amazing hotel we stayed at on the island of Crete. Upon arrival we were given fresh-squeezed lemonade made from their own lemon trees. The staff was so friendly! The building is over 500 years old, and nothing like I've ever seen before. The suite we got was huge, (living room, full kitchen, dining room, and bathroom downstairs and 2 bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs). We had our own private patio and a back door that led right to the pool. The town and the people...

Why not spend a lazy afternoon at Stavrí during your trip to Agios Vasileios? Wander the sandy beaches or discover the countryside in this quaint area.
Room was perfect, being west-facing meant the mornings stayed nice and cool, which was great for breakfast outside, and then the afternoon sun was ideal for sunbathing. Having the pool right by the room wasn’t just a gimmick either, it was so nice being able to jump in whenever we felt like it.
Parking was really easy, with plenty of space available.
Breakfast was delicious and always arrived on time in the slot we picked. We really liked being able to order it on the app each day, it made it...

A great place to stay. Clean and well maintained inside and out. Kostas was incredibly hospitable, helping us with travel plans before arrival and ensuring we had everything we needed during our stay.

This was our first trip anywhere in Greece. We chose Plakias on the south west cost of Crete, and I'm so glad we did as the weather was stunning, for October, as was Crete itself. The Sea View apartments were a lucky find, too. They are clean, modern, light, good value and have a view of the sea, as the name suggests, which is about a three minute walk away. The staff there are friendly and cheerful.
We had the ground floor corner apartment which also gave us a secluded sun terrace, in addition...

Just come back from 10 days at Horizon Beach Hotel. The property was clean and appropriately fitted out for a three star hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful.
The hotel is a short walk from the centre of the resort. There are ample car parking space on-site.
Overall I thought the Horizon Beach Hotel offered good value for money.

Clean apartment, and good location to visit Frangokastello. The view on the front page is not the view for all the apartments, but still you will be able have some of a sea view from the first floor apartments.

It was a modern comfortable property. The pool was clean bright and inviting. The living accommodation had all those amenities that one would expect for a relaxing holiday. There is no washing machine and it would have been nice to have but it looks like this is common in Crete. The coffee machine in our room was not working and the shower was the only room that needed more attention. But none of these would make us not wanting to revisit and would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to...

I spent 2 nights at Menta City hotel with my husband and 2 teenage children in Aug 2024. Our room was clean and spacious. The roof top breakfast was delicious, with stunning views. The walk to the old town was around 15 minutes. We loved the restaurants and browsing the many shops.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Casa Dei Delfini. The building has been beautifully renovated by the owners and was very easy to find from the instructions given. It is located in a pedestrian area which is very quiet and very typical of Old Town Rethymno, and a few minutes walk away from all local amenities and sites.
Our hosts were very very friendly and helpful and the rooms where spacious, spotless and cleaned every day. We stayed in the Penthouse for a week over New Year and it was very...

Located in the centre of the historic region. Close to all you would like to see especially on a first visit. Hotel itself small and quirky, unusually and interestingly decorated. Breakfast on the terrace a highlight with fresh local produce.Staff attentive and helpful. Special mention for Evie and Johnny who made our visit all the more enjoyable with information and assistance on things to do and see. Would not hesitate to stay here again.
