Facing the beachfront, Nautilux Rethymno by Mage Hotels offers 5-star accommodation in Rethymno Town and features a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, fitness centre and garden. Among the various facilities of this property are a terrace, a restaurant and a bar. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi throughout the property. It is our second time at the Nautilux Crete. The first time we became in love with everything. The beauty of the Hotel. Extremely clean and comfortable. Very new and well maintained. The staff is the best. Always with a smile on the face. We love the minimalism and modern design of this Hotel. The beach. The view. The service at the pool and at the beach. The food is amazing. This time we receive an upgrade and the suite with the jacuzzi was wonderful. We just have good things to share with the others. Absolutely nothing to complain.

Clean room, comfortable bed. And a wonderful not very expensive breakfast. The parking is on the street but there is no problem you can easily find a parking spot.

Located in Chania Town, 700 metres from Nea Chora Beach, Morum City Hotel Chania provides accommodation with a fitness centre, private parking, a shared lounge and a restaurant. This 4-star hotel offers a bar. The accommodation features a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi throughout the property. Perfect location- close to everything, and at the same time- on a little street. The stuff was very polite and helpful- they recommend us one of the best restaurants (not for the tourists, but for good eating…), one of the best beaches (not the popular ones) and they were there for you all the time, even in the nights! The rooms are small but very clean. Next stay in Chania definitely will be at this hotel!

Situated in Ierápetra, 200 metres from Livadi Beach, Enorme Santanna Beach features accommodation with a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a fitness centre and a garden. This 4-star hotel offers room service and a concierge service. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, a shared lounge and free WiFi throughout the property. We really enjoyed our stay at this amazing built place, the architecture and the design outstanding. The staff was truly fantastic, very careful with your needs and a really nice company while you dine in at the restaurant and at the bar. The variety of food makes you want to come back the next day, not knowing what to expect.A lot of culture in the food with different themes that bring joy with every meal. The cleaning service did wonders in the room, the good feeling to come back in a clean room after a day on the beach. One more aspect I wish to mention, the gym.Having a place where you can train and admire the views at the same time did a really good impression on me.There is also a boxing bag for the ones who like some cardio. Peace.
