The location is unbeatable and the building itself tastefully restored and beautifully furnished. The staff were excellent and we enjoyed a very pleasurable stay.
La très grande gentillesse du personnel, la splendide terrasse, la vue.
L’air conditionné dans la chambre que l’on ne peut pas régler en-dessous de 24 degrés.
Family run hotel with excellent facilities where nothing is too much trouble
Absolutely nothing
Amazing restaurant
Hôtel parfaitement placé car ville accessible à pieds sans être dans les bruits du centre. Mer à proximité immédiate. Chambre aménagée avec goût et très propre avec vue splendide. La route passante à proximité n’est absolument pas un problème.
Petit déjeuné sous forme de buffet mais peu qualitatif
Locația,designul rafinat,personalul f atent și prietenos,restaurantul de mare clasă
hotel les pieds dans l'eau, tres belle chambre et bonne literie, petite plage privée et petite piscine
The photos are exactly as it is. Right on the water and amazing
We couldn’t find anything we didn’t like
Μέγεθος δωματίου, καθαριότητα, πρωινό, θέα στη θάλασσα, κάποια χαμογελαστά πρόσωπα του προσωπικού όπως ο Eduardo και η ξανθιά κυρία που μας τακτοποιούσε το δωμάτιο.
la posizione, la colazione, la disponibilità dei camerieri e della ragazza alla reception, poi la camera vista mare
a volte risaliva dai tubi della vasca un cattivissimo odore, poi dal primo giorno abbiamo chiesto un phone per i capelli in sostituzione di quello difettoso ma non ci è stato mai fornito nonostante un paio di sollecitazioni
Plage agitée durant notre sejour dejeuners excellents et variés
Chambre pas assez dans le noir la nuit , les rideaux ne sont pas assez occultants du coup nous etions reveillés tot 6H30
Красивый отель, пляж рядом с отелем, вид с трассы, вид на бассейн с балкона
Завтрак простоват, кровати не очень комфортные, территория вокруг гостиницы не ухоженная, много полуразваленных домов. Нет парковки
אווירה נעימה, שקט, פסטורלי, המסעדה על המזח, עיצוב מהמם, מרחב שנעים לשהות בו, חדרים מרווחים מאוד ומאווררים, אמבטיה גדולה ומפנקת, נוף לים
בעיית חניה ברחוב
Marvellous building with fantastic sea views from our room and swimming pool was great place to chill. Very convenient parking lot.
Nothing
Layout
The beach was awful plus hotel was too close to a busy road
מקום יפה ממש על הים (אך לקחת בחשבון שגם ממש מעל המסעדה)
חוסר בשירות לקוחות, במשך 4 ימים אף אחד לא טורח לבדוק האם אתה מרוצה, האם חסר לך משהו, צריך משהו ( כן קונדישינר, מגבות וקפסולות קפה)
Mycket god frukost och maten på restaurangen var toppen. Trevlig personal med familjär känsla. Väldigt fint och smakfullt hotellrum. Klanderfri städning.
Tranquillité des lieux, vue imprenable sur la mer, très bon petit déjeuner, chambre toutes options avec literie au top. Distance centre ville historique de Rethymnon à 20 mn à pied. Parfait.
Manque éventuellement une piscine de meilleure facture que celle proposée. Mais uniquement pour ceux qui n'ont pas de passion pour la mer !
The staff were amazing, some of the best I have seen.
WiFi is a bit spotty
Deuxième séjour et toujours aussi agréable ! On a déjà envie d y revenir
Il manque peut être à mon goût des panecakes au petit déjeuner
Loved the decor ,design and all the detail amenities. Absolutely loved .loved the restaurant on site! Could have stayed longer! Restaurant called Seven Seas , clean .fresh food.
Parking , but we easily got street parking and front desk attendant Hara was very helpful with luggage and parking suggestions
Its location on the beach and away from the main town. Very relaxing
Authentic
beautiful hotel. large rooms. direct access to the water. 20 min walk from town which was perfect for us. staff amazing - so accomodating. all of the food incredible including breakfast and the main / dinner menus. great wine selection. couldnt recommend enough.

Lovely boutique hotel with great size well designed bedrooms. Fantastic building with great history and spotless. Brilliant friendly staff who couldn’t do enough for you. Great selection of food for breakfast and dinner
N/A
Beautiful unique style rooms, kept clean. Lovely bath with a view. Enjoyed breakfast on the seafront.
The 'heated' pool was a bit colder than I thought it would be but was good to have as an option as the sea was too rough to swim in when we were there. It would have been more enjoyable if it was a little warmer.
Location on the beach
Zicht op zee en zo proper
De drukke weg naast de deur
Lage, Terrasse, Freundlichkeit des Personals. Grüsse gehen insbesondere an Katya, die uns beim Frühstück sehr zuvorkommend bedient hat.

Olimme hotellin lokakuun lopussa superior sviitissä viikon ja nautimme todella olostamme. Huone oli kaunis, sänky oli hyvä. Aamiainen oli herkullinen.Meren kohina kuului huoneeseen ja näköala oli upea merelle. Mereen pääsi uimaan kun otti muutaman askeleen. Matka vanhaan kaupunkiin oli aika pitkä, mutta meitä se ei haitannut, koska tykkäämme kävellä.
Sijainti oli esikaupunkialueella ja matka vanhaan kaupunkiin oli suht pitkä ja maisema välillä hieman epäsiisti
Personnel au petit soin très agréable. Nous avons passer un très bon moment que se soit le soir sur la terrasse ou même le matin au petit déjeuner.
Sur les photos nous avions le spa mais pas sur le réel et nous étions sensé avoir vu sur la mer et nous étions un peu plus vu sur la rue.
Location was great. Beautiful, clean, on the ocean, lovely rooms and great beds and fantastic showers. The breakfast was also fabulous.
I liked everything
Professional staff, modern, great Restaurant nearby
Big suites, great Restaurant nearby
Sehr schönes Boutique Hotel, liebevoll eingerichtet, in exponierter Lage direkt am Wasser. Die Mitarbeiter waren super freundlich und immer hilfsbereit.
Kein eigener Parkplatz sodass sich die Parkplatzsuche für einen Mietwagen schwierig erweist.
Great room (Superior Suite with Sea View) with a great view. The location right by the sea was good The beach wsa small, but enough for what we needed Parking was good, we were able to find spaces on the side roads
The location was on a busy road an outside of the main town. Our room was above the kitchen and dining facilities room and so at night it was noisy.
Au départ je voulais mettre une mauvaise note car l’accueil n’était pas terrible (le Monsieur n’est pas très chaleureux): bon j’aurais dû voir qu’il n’y a pas de parking, mais il n’y a même pas de zone où s’arrêter pour laisser ses valises. Et la route est très fréquentée. Impossible de s’arrêter devant. Ensuite le Monsieur nous dis en gros de nous débrouiller et ne donne aucun conseil. Ensuite nous avons pris la suite en duplex. Il faut prendre la suite côté EST car celle côté OUEST n’a pas de terrasse (pour le même prix. Mais sur la photo c’est celle à l’EST). Il y a une douche/WC minus, séparé du salon par une porte fenêtre transparente qui n’isole pas du bruit (….) et si on allume la nuit, ça éclaire la chambre forcément. La rue derrière est très bruyante donc évitez les chambres côté piscine (la piscine borde la route). Pour aller en ville c’est 20’ à pied mais c’est très moche, le long de cette route. On ne peut pas suivre la plage (qui est moche aussi). Après, j’ai vu que les hôtels de l’autre côté de la ville (à l’EST) c’était pire: que des grands hôtels avec la route devant, puis la plage puis la mer au loin. Ça faisait pas rêver. Ça me rappelait l’Algarve. Et je me suis dit que finalement cet hôtel n’était pas si mal. D’autant que c’est le seul qui a un restaurant au dessus de l’eau (sympa pour le petit déjeuner).

Fantastische ligging- heerlijk eten in restaurant- super vriendelijk personeel. Top locatie
Calme et super bien placé, grande chambre à étage et énorme balcon .
Pas de place Parking réservée pour la voiture
Frühstück war gut, schönes Zimmer mit direktem Meeresblick, angenehme Meeresrauschen, Bushaltestelle ganz in der Nähe, um in die Stadt fahren zu können. Sehr freundliches und zuvorkommendes Personal, vielen Dank für das installieren vom Tresor, die Lunchboxes und das Taxi zum Flughafen!
Manchmal hat Wasser aus der Wasserleitung unangenehm gerochen... Der kleine Strand neben dem Hotel war ungepflegt... In der Umgebung sind viele zerstörte Gebäude zu sehen...
Stunning hotel set in a beautifully renovated old factory right on the beach, with excellent attention to detail throughout. Excellent location on a quiet swimming beach away from the crowds, excellent quality amenities, delicious breakfast, and excellent staff. There is a very good restaurant that operates out of the hotel from 2pm, and there are also a number of good tavernas, cafes, and mini markets nearby. Only a 20 minute walk to the old town. Despite backing onto a very busy road you cannot hear any noise but the sea once inside the hotel. The rooms are spacious, airy, and beautifully decorated. The hotel facilities are beautifully decorated with many small touches. A relaxing and luxurious place to stay.
Tout : l’emplacement magnifique, la qualité du personnel, le choix des produits pour le restaurant et le petit-dejeuner, le bel aménagement de la chambre et des parties communes. Un établissement à taille humaine qui donne l’impression d’être chez soit.
Rien, on a tout aimé
A small and cozy beach hotel with relaxed and quiet athmosphere. Very clean and beautiful, nice staff and good location only 20 minutes walk to the harbour and old town of Rethymno.
Lage am Wasser
Laute Straße, beengte Verhältnisse
Mooi gelegen net buiten Rethimnon. Prachtige kamer met leuk balkon. Het beste restaurant van de hele reis! Echt top!
Niets. Enkel het stadje Rethimnon viel ons wat tegen.
Our stay was very pleasant and upto expectations, staff were incredibly polite and nothing was to much trouble.
Parking is there only issue which they know and the Greek government putting up taxes. !!
Very unsafe location. We had unloaded the luggage on the busy street and carried the luggage up and down the stairs. No staff to help. The receptionist was rude and unpleasant. Loud noises from busy street and the swimming pool is size of hot tub.
Sa belle situation en bord de mer Le professionnalisme et la gentillesse du personnel Le petit déjeuner copieux, varié servi en terrasse avec la mer à nos pieds
Tout était parfait sauf l’absence de parking privé, il nous a été difficile de trouver un emplacement proche de l’hôtel
Lovely location, small and friendly hotel right on the beach with good restaurant and an easy 20 minute walk to the old town.
Nothing
Sea view split level suite was excellent. Very clean and the best views. Slight smell from drainage but didn't spoil the holiday. Hotel staff were amazing. Helpful and friendly. The restaurant was run separately so could not charge meals to room. Other restaurants nearby. Would recommend Cabo. Lovely views, food and staff. However, breakfast was included so no probs there. Enjoyed the varied buffet breakfast. Pool is small and on the roadside so noisy at times. Small beach area for the hotel but we had a lovely patio outside the room. 20 minute walk into the Old Town along a very busy, noisy main road.
Interior and decor was very nice
Beach wasn’t very tidy there was some rubbish directly by the hotel
Super smukt og charmerende hotel, med eneste rigtige minus er strandstykket som “hører” til hotellet, der burde ryddes op på daglig basis, for det er fyldt med skidt. Men tager gerne tilbage, trods alt😊
Apartament z pięknym widokiem na morze. W apartamencie bardzo duża przestrzeń, przestronnie, wygodne łóżko, ogólnie bardzo fajne miejsce. Śniadania całkiem niezłe, można się najeść: owoce, jajka, wędliny, sery i warzywa, plus woda i smaczna kawa z ekspresu.
Brak parkingu, ale na plus dosyć blisko darmowy parking miejski. Także nie był to problem.
Beautifully designed, comfortable, the staff were excellent and the restaurant was amazing.
A little far to be able to walk into the town, the pool was small, the beach wasn’t the cleanest.
Flott boutique hotel ved havet. Meget gjestfri betjening. Nydelig mat til frokost og i restauranten.
למי שמחפש שקט וסטייל -זה המקום.חדרים גדולים ומפנקים , מלון בוטיק קטן ואינטימי- כ- 10 חדרים בסה"כ.חדר עם נוף לים (מומלץ !) מדהים !!! מסעדה ברמה גבוהה על המים .יציאה מהירה לכביש המהיר והגעה מהירה למגוון חופים ועיירות. שירות הקבלה במלון והמלצרים בארוחת הבוקר וגם במסעדה בערב- מצויין !
1.מי שמחפש facilities - בריכה ,חוף ים פרטי גדול ומפנק ומרחק הליכה מהמרכז זה לא המקום..ל'מרכז העניינים' והבילויים ולחוף הים המסודר והטיילת של רתימנו צריך לנסוע ברכב כ 20 דקות (יש חניון קרוב למרכז בתשלום שהוא נוח). 2.למלון אין חניה וזה אומר לחפש חניה כל פעם מחדש.יש חניון לא מסודר במרחק של כ 300 מטר מהמלון (עליה :)). 3.למי שמחפש שפע ומבחר בארוחת הבוקר - זה לא המקום.הארוחה נחמדה ומגוונת אבל לא בסטנדרטים של מלון בוטיק גדול. 4.הפתרון שנתנו לנו למקלחת לפני טיסה (טיסה מאוחרת והחזרת החדר עד 12:00) היה לא נעים ,לא נוח ולא מכבד.מחסן עמוס (שהיה פעם ספא) עם מקלחון אבל בלי אפילו מקום להניח את הבגדים ותיק הרחצה .מאוד לא נוח 'להתארגן' לפני טיסה וזה לא סטנדרט המצופה ממלון בוטיק.
Le petit-déjeuner, la carte pour le dîner et le personnel ainsi que la chambre face à la mer.
Les remontées d’odeurs de canalisation qui étaient ponctuelles et vraiment nauséabondes.
Gorgeous, unique feel with extreme comfort and beautiful views!
All was excellent. It was a small walk into Rethymno which isn’t really an issue.
Es un hotel maravilloso, todo está perfecto. El servicio es súper amable, el desayuno es perfecto, las vistas son un sueño y la ubicación está genial, a un paseíto de 25 min al centro. Disponible de una playa junto al hotel. Aunque, a primera vista, penséis que no merece la pena, probadla. Es maravillosa, con unas aguas cristalinas en cuanto pasas las piedritas del inicio, muy tranquila. El día que más gente había, hubo 14 personas. No llego a entender cómo no había más gente allí. Una estancia maravillosa. Justo frente al hotel hay un restaurante llamado "PEPPERS" o algo así, es una opción ideal en calidad-precio, si queréis picar algo.
Nada, tuvimos una estancia maravillosa.
Great rooms and excellent breakfast. The restaurant on the premises was fantastic!!
The pictures of the pool are a bit misleading as it is really small. However, with the beach right there that was minor.
Si tratta di un edificio antico, tant’è che all’interno delle camere le pareti sono state lasciate con la roccia originaria, ler cui sono sicuramente suggestive. La struttura si trova alla fine di Rethymno, con un oanorama molto bello dalla terrazza del ristorante, che è anche champagneria a picco sul mare. Colazione buona
Innanzitutto è lontanissima dal centro, a piedi è più di mezz’ora e non è affatto una passeggiata perchè i marciapiedi sono tutti rivinati, rotti e le macchine sfrecciano pericolosamente. Ció posto, la piscina è una vera e propria pozza, di piccolissime dimensioni, il mare è impratucabile, con tutti sassi e rocce e in quel lunto molto e sempre agitato. Il ragazzo che ci ha accolto alla reception non ci ha dato nessuna informazione, ho dovuto anche chiedere una seconda chiave, visto che all’interno è necessario inserirla per far funzionare luci e aria condizionata. La mia camera aveva il soppalco con la stanza da letto. Tuttavia la scala che portava sopra era proprio sulla consolle con macchinetta del caffè e bicchieri: in sostanza ogni volta che si saliva sopra cadevano dalla scala capelli e sporcizia, a riprova della scaraa pulizia e soprattutto della non felice organizzazione della composizione della stanza. Il tutto per una notte a 250€! No comment!
Great Place!!!
Bel Hotel au bord de la mer Les personnes à la réception sont extrêment sympathiques et agréables Elles font le maximum pour aider
La chambre vue mer du RDC a une salle de bain et des toilettes inutilisable lors de vents forts (forts refoulement qui innondent tout via les toilettes) et cela est visiblement connu; cela gache totalement le séjour et c'est dommage car l'hotel est vraiment joli, et les personnes vraiment accueillantes.
le duplex est grand, l'hotel est bord de mer
pas de balconnet , pas suffisamment de rangement pour une kitchenette inutile
Ottima la colazione sulla terrazza . La gentilezza dello staff alla concierge.
La spiaggia ed i servizi in spiaggia davvero deludenti. Non paragonabili alla struttura dell'albergo.
The best part of the hotel is my baby sophia the cat !!!!!!!! And the view was amaaaazing !!!!!
Maybe a colder AC and a swimming pool.
Excellent location, food really good.
Some staff a just going through the motions although most were helpful .What seemed to be the owner just sat there all week and never lifted a finger, he has a lot to learn about hospitality.
The property is in a beautiful setting a 30 minute walk from the old town
The walk to the old town is down a busy main road and is not very scenic The private beach is very dirty with minimal umbrellas for the number of sun-beds There is no where to lounge around outside of your room - we felt like we were guests of the restaurant attached and getting in there way
This was a perfect location for a few days’ getaway. Nice hotel right by the beach with lovely staff. Can also recommend the hotel restaurant. Five star stay!
Wonderful location! Wonderful amenities in the room. It was a dream to stay here and be lulled to sleep by the sound of the crashing waves, and to wake up to them in the mornings with a beautiful sunset. The breakfast in the patio is delicious and comes with that incredible view and sunrise over the venetian fortress. The bathtub in the room is incredibly luxurious and fun. The couch and the mattress are both so comfortable and lovely to fall asleep on. There is a nice big balcony overlooking the breakfast and restaurant patio to enjoy the sunset from. The staff is warm and kind.
Everything was perfect except the parking, which is a struggle everywhere in Rethymno. But since Thalassa is at the edge of town it is actually easier to find parking around 300 m away close to the bus stop just before the town begins.
beautiful location stunning views lovely restaurant lovely staff
The views and the bedroom.
Our stay was amazing but was at least a 25 min walk into town
great location fabulous views great breakfast
We absolutely loved this hotel! This has been such a special holiday from start to finish. We stayed in the Sea View Suite and it was worth every penny – waking up to those stunning views each morning was unforgettable. The breakfast is beautiful, with plenty of delicious options to enjoy while looking out over the sea. The staff made our stay even more memorable – so friendly, kind and welcoming. They really go above and beyond to make you feel at home. The private beach is a real bonus – peaceful, clean, and perfect for relaxing. It’s about a 30-minute flat walk into town, but the reception team are happy to call a taxi if you prefer – nothing is too much trouble. I also had an in-room massage, and it was genuinely one of the best massages I’ve ever had – such a lovely touch of luxury. The rooms were cleaned to a high standard everyday. The restaurant is incredible – amazing food, great drinks, and a lovely atmosphere. We honestly didn’t want to leave and are already talking about when we can come back. Thank you so much for everything – you made this trip unforgettable! 💛
Stayed their for 7 nights and it was an absolutely amazing experience. The location is great with access direct to the beach and outside the busy tourist areas. The food at the restaurant was arguably the best in the area and a must do. Staff and hospitality are also impeccable.
The position on the seafront and the big airy room.
The only downside was the lack of sun loungers and shade on the beach
Such a beautiful property and very quiet
Unfortunately a storm had just come through so the restaurant was closed due to damages. No fault on the hotel’s end, just unfortunate
This hotel is perfect! The rooms are super comfortable and the views from the breakfast area and balcony are phenomenal! Breakfast is tasty and the service was faultless. While there is a busy road outside the hotel, you cannot hear it from the rooms or the breakfast patio area. There is no parking at the hotel but plenty of free public parking nearby which worked just fine. It’s about a 20-25 minute walk into the old town of rethymno which makes for a lovely evening stroll along the sea front. Its location is a perfect middle between Chania and Heraklion allowing for plenty of activities in both areas. We stayed a week but wish it could have been longer! Would highly recommend! 11/10
A perfect stay by the sea. Lovely boutique hotel calm & welcoming. Excellent staff and good breakfast and fabulous restaurant.
