Right in the centre of Rethymno Town, Philikon Luxury Suites has inner courtyard views from the patio. It is situated 1.5 km from Rethymno Beach and offers luggage storage space. The guest house features garden views, a sun terrace, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. Great for visiting the Old Town of Rethymno, the only issue is the distance to the car park, but this is compensated for by the pedestrian streets and lack of traffic.

Located 27 km from Fortress of Frangokastello, Anopoli Rooms offers air-conditioned accommodation with a balcony. This property offers access to a terrace and free private parking. The guest house features family rooms. We stayed here with my mom for one night, and it completely exceeded our expectations. The village itself is quiet and charming, set in the mountains, and the whole experience—from the hotel to the taverna and the wonderful host—was just perfect. From the start, we felt very welcomed. We were helped with our luggage to the third floor, and it felt like we were given one of the best rooms, with a stunning view of the mountains. The room was spacious, beautifully renovated, with elegant furniture and thoughtful design—it was clear a lot of care went into creating such a comfortable space. Everything was spotless, fresh, and bright, from the bedroom to the bathroom. We also ate at the taverna that belongs to the hotel, and the food was absolutely delicious. The owner is such a kind, helpful person—he gave us great advice on routes and places to visit, and it was truly a pleasure to meet him. We loved everything about our stay and honestly didn’t want to leave.

The property is less than 1 km from Koum Kapi Beach, and within 100 metres of the city centre. We stayed at Cretan Berry Sarpaki for 5 nights and found it to be very spacious, clean and comfortable. It was also close enough to the town to easily see the sights but located on a quiet street. The bed and bedding are lovely. The customer service was great and communication very quick. We were able to organise to store our bags at reception after check out on our last day and Georgia also organised us an airport transfer for 32€ which made our final day hassle-free.
