Ihan hyvä.
Pros:

Lähellä rantaa, mukava henkilökunta, kiva ulkoallas.

Cons:

Ruoka ei ollut kovin hyvää, "puutarhanäkymä" oli aika ankea näkymä kadulle.

Carino
Pros:

Hotel molto curato in zona balneare e residenziale. Abbiamo soggiornato solo una notte, approfittando della cena a buffet. Non abbiamo usufruito di tutti i servizi (piscina e lido) ma credo ne sarebbe valsa la pena.

Cons:

Camere non molto insonorizzate, per cui si sente rumore dalle altre stanze (nel nostro caso, la stanza di sopra era particolarmente rumorosa).
La doccia con la tenda invece del box è abbastanza scomoda, ma gestibile.

Pros:

Good value for money hotel with a great location near the beach. It's also fairly close to Rethymno city center by car. Very good breakfast. Although the structure is old, it is very clean. The staff members are friendly and eager to assist.

Pros:

Faptul ca s-a facut curat in camera in fiecare zi iar personalul amabil.

Cons:

Cu ce sa incep? Pentru inceput pozele cu plaja sunt ale plajelor din apropierea hotelului, pe scurt hotelul nu are plaja. Apoi baia a fost un mare minus. Zilnic un miros puternic si nu de flori daca ma intelegeti, in plus mucegai pe unul din peretii baii. Apoi, hotelul din vecini organiza in fiecarea seara petreceri cu muzica si voie buna, problema era galagia facuta atat de muzicanti cat si de pretrecareti. Nu te puteai odihni. Poate pentru unii nu e o problema, pentru mine a fost.

Viaggio a Creta
Pros:

Ho soggiornato una settimana presso questa struttura. Posizione eccellente staff sempre disponibile gentilissimo ed attento al cliente sempre in grado di esaudire ogni mia richiesta.
Ottima la colazione e anche per il pranzo e cena nulla da dire tutto ottimo!
La camera di ottime dimensioni sempre in ordine e pulita! Posizionato di fronte la spiaggia e vicino a negozi e centro abitato utile la sera per fare una passeggiata e visitare agenzie per la prenotazione di escursioni. In merito consiglio vivamente l'agenzia Manolis Travel .
Un grazie di cuore al Direttore della struttura Acquamarine Hotel e a tutto il suo meraviglioso staff per la magnifica vacanza che ho fatto!!!
Grazie di cuore per tutto!

Cons:

Nulla da dire tutto perfetto!

Lovely Staying in Crete
Pros:

Very nice structure in front of the beach (100 m on foot). It is located about 6 km from the center of the Old Retimno city.
Very good food, Both international and local. The greek plates were very good.
A special mention to the Staff, very professional and kind, in particular Mr. Polivios, the Director of the Hotel, for being a perfect example of Greek hospitality.

Cons:

Unfortunately, during our staying we've had quite a Rough Sea, so we couldn't bath. But the structure has a nice pool anyway.

Super wyjazd ❤️
Pros:

Bardzo fajny hotel przy plaży. Śliczna plaża. Blisko do sklepów, barów, restauracji. Przystanek kilka kroków od hotelu, skąd można podjechać autobusem miejskim do Rethymnon. Smaczne posiłki. Czysty basen. Bardzo miła i pomocna obsługa. Moje dzieci były tam już tydzień z biurem podróży, a jedną dobę dokupiłam na bookingu ze względu na bardzo późny lot, stąd wiem tak dużo o tym hotelu.
