Rilassante, piacevole, da ritornarci
Pros:

Ottima posizione, buona qualità del cibo, ottima colazione, disponibilità del personale, ottimo servizio ai tavoli durante i pasti

Cons:

mi sarei aspettato una camera più grande ed una migliore vista mare: avevamo scelto una camera con vista laterale, ma per vedere il mare bisognava sporgersi dal terrazzino.....

Pros:

Bardzo dobra lokalizacja. Miła obsługa w recepcji i restauracji . Hotel ma ofercie " prywatny parking" a tak naprawdę to jest tylko 5 miejsc parkingowych. Jeżeli ktoś chce z takiego miejsca korzystać podczas pobytu to warto zrobić i opłacić wcześniej rezerwację . Koszt to 10 euro/doba więc jest tanio .

Cons:

Beznadziejnie sprzątany pokój . Kiepska jakość produktów do śniadania i kolacji . Hotel ma 5 gwiazdek ale w naszej ocenie , na podstawie wielu pobytów w przeróżnych hotelach, to jest to mocno zawyżone i dajemy 3,5 . Byliśmy w kilku hotelach na Krecie 5* , ten okazał się najsłabszy z nich wszystkich. Na pewno nie chcemy wracać do tego hotelu.

Fantastisch verblijf, met vriendelijk personeel en perfecte bedden!
Pros:

Het was gewoon fantastisch….van de service tot de junior suite…we kwamen op het laatste moment daar omdat onze andere locatie ons niet beviel. We zijn enorm goed opgevangen en we kregen een mandje met fruit. Het ontbijt had alles wat je maar kan wensen.Het personeel wist ook wie je was en zelfs na één dag hoe je je koffie wilde.

Cons:

Mijn enige opmerking is dat we op de eerste dag onze eten in de kamer hebben besteld. De volgende dag is de dienblad met vuile borden niet opgeruimd. Ik heb bij de receptie gevraagd of ze de borden en dienblad konden opruimen. Dit is toen ook niet gedaan. De volgende dag heb ik een briefje met fooi achtergelaten aan de schoonmaak personeel zodat alsnog dit werd gedaan. Toen is het wel opgeruimd. Ach, de rest was zeer goed en we hebben genoten.

Alloggio accogliente, comodo e pulito
Pros:

Struttura accogliente e staff cordiale e disponibile.
Vicino al mare e alle attrazioni del villaggio.
Colazione e cena a buffet variegata.

Cons:

Potrebbe essere curata di più la spiaggia, magari sistemando l’ingresso e facendo trovare le cassette di sicurezza degli ombrelloni già aperte e funzionanti

Wonderful stay in Rethymno Kriti beach hotel
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! We stayed on the 4th floor in a Junior Superior Suite with a sea view, and the view was absolutely breathtaking. The suite was spacious, beautifully clean, and very comfortable.

We were especially impressed by all the thoughtful welcome gifts waiting for us – a fridge stocked with drinks, a bottle of local wine, and a lovely basket of fresh fruit. Such a nice surprise and a wonderful way to start our stay!

Everything was taken care of perfectly throughout our stay. Coffee and tea for the in-room coffee machine were replenished daily, and we always had fresh towels and bed linen.

The food was excellent, fresh, and varied, with plenty of choice every day. We truly didn’t miss a thing.

What made our stay even more special was the hotel staff. Everyone was incredibly kind, helpful, friendly, and always greeted us with a smile. Their warm and welcoming attitude really made us feel at home.

A truly lovely hotel with a wonderful atmosphere and excellent service. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily come back again. We can wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Rethymno!

Excellent choosing 👌🏻
Pros:

We stayed at Kriti Beach for 10 nights and had a very enjoyable experience.

The food was excellent. Rather than offering an overwhelming selection, the hotel focused on high-quality ingredients and consistently well-prepared meals. Even our children enjoyed every meal, which says a lot.

The staff were friendly, cheerful, and genuinely welcoming throughout our stay. Our room was clean, comfortable, and very well maintained.

A well-managed hotel with a pleasant atmosphere. We would gladly stay here again.
