Top Blue Beach Hotel Reviews

Nautilux Rethymno by Mage Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic pool and beach view! Amazing staff! Gorgeous property!"

SAVUS BOUTIQUE HOTEL

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel with lovely helpful staff. Great breakfasts and a really comfortable bed. There are plenty of bars and restaurants in the immediate vicinity but it is only a few minutes walk into Rethymno's historic centre where the restaurants are generally better. The view from our balcony over the port was great although there is some noise from main road running along the seafront - only noticeable when the doors to the balcony are open as the soundproofing is very good. It is a good hotel if you are hiring a car as there is a large car park in the port opposite the hotel. It is a bit expensive - around 15 euros per day. There is some free parking but finding a space was tricky. We stayed for a week and, with the benefit of hindsight, should have bought a monthly ticket for 50 euros and saved ourselves the hassle of looking for a free space as we only saved a few euros by doing so."

Menta City Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and spacious. I had a lovely view from my balcony. Breakfast was also great as the staff were welcoming every morning"

Rimondi Boutique Hotels-Small Luxury Hotels of the World

10/10 Excellent

"Very beautiful property, was treated very well by all the hotel staff. Also comes with a lovely breakfast buffet in the morning."

Steris Elegant Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean and modern, with balcony, with kitchenette, air conditioning was turning on automatically so we had to turn it off as it was come already, partial sea view which was very nice and close to the seaboard and beach; it was stormy, windy so we admired the big waves that were fascinating. Restaurant was nice and we had great included breakfast buffet and we ate one time dinner and had discount from expedia, food was nice and well served. Within short distance many restaurants and minimarkets, also not far from the old town, nice to walk. Took city bus tour which took us also outside the city/ town through some mountain villages; very narrow windy roads so kinda scary but nice tour. Parking is hard, we found a spot and did not move the car for two days, but this is a problem everywhere in Crete."

Melrose Rethymno by Mage Hotels

8/10 Good

"Really helpful staff and I liked that were was both an indoor and outdoor pool. Also close to a bunch of restaurant options and only 15-20 mins walk to old town"

Omma Suites

8/10 Good

"The pictures on the website make this hotel looks spectacular. The room I had did have a hot tub, but it was inside the room. That made it very difficult to take a shower, and actually filling the hot tub would take about an hour, so I never had time to do it. It also uses up a huge amount of space in the room. Check in on the weekend involves being emailed a code as you arrive and a tall staircase not friendly to having large luggage and one person with a bad back. The people who run the property are extremely nice, and the location is very good. The cleaning is excellent, except that twice they left me a sheet and a blanket folded up not put on the bed. There was also an issue with a sticky switch to flush the toilet that was not fixed while I was there. Overall, this is a luxury property, but the way that it is arranged and managed (strange bed making, sticky switch, big staircase with no one to ) makes it four stars rather than five."

Civitas Suites Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice staff. Nice decorations"

Elina Hotel Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location and very good room for family. This include two showers and toilets Very helpful staff and good breakfast"
