Maria’s hotel and hospitality is true to it’s reviews. I spent 16 nights there with my teenage daughter and we loved our stay in Rethymno. The apartment was clean, spacious and suited our needs. The location was perfect to get anywhere in the town, and a 10 min slow walk to the old port which was lively enough to keep a teenager very happy, with many restaurants, and ice cream parlours! Some nights we cooked in the apartment and Maria was always available to give good suggestions on restaurants & beaches to visit. We had a hire car and often drove over to the South coast beaches which we alternated with the beach just in front of the Dome restaurant on the sea front close to the hotel. It was the perfect base, location and wonderful warm family hosts. We hope to return there ..
