"This was by far the most unique, amazing hotel we stayed at on the island of Crete. Upon arrival we were given fresh-squeezed lemonade made from their own lemon trees. The staff was so friendly! The building is over 500 years old, and nothing like I've ever seen before. The suite we got was huge, (living room, full kitchen, dining room, and bathroom downstairs and 2 bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs). We had our own private patio and a back door that led right to the pool. The town and the people...

"Zum zweiten Mal hier gewesen und bestimmt nicht das letzte Mal. Etwas abgeschieden in den Bergen und ca. 20 min Fahrt bis zum Strand aber trotzdem für uns hervorragend."

"This beautiful villa is a hidden gem. The little village is so gorgeous. The drive up through the olive orchard is stunning. We never tired of the view. The restaurant that it attached to the villa is literally at the front door. The food is amazing. Though breakfast is not available, it's a short drive to a nearby town that has several other dining options. The pool is small but private. We would definitely stay here again. "

"Beautiful quiet spot! A walk or cycle from the Center of Frangkocastello (and where the beach is wonderful and child friendly too). The taverna on the sea front just infront of the property has excellent traditional Greek food and there are many more to try in the center too. Very peaceful location, with a few similar looking apartment hotels scattered along this coastline. The hosts are wonderful. A pool was just finishing being built right behind the current apartments property and looked like...

"Fantastic resort. Lovely and quiet yet within walking distance to lots of restaurants, shops and the beach.
Never stayed in a hotel where the cleaners were so efficient!
Would highly recommend the rooms with pool access!"

"Pros: The house is really comfortable, with everything somebody may need.The village is at a great location, near beautiful gorges for hiking,traditional villages and few kilometers from the sea.The view from the balcony is awesome. But the most important, is that the owners are really nice and polite people. We will visit this house again,for sure!"

"The staff at this hotel is amazing! Everyone is so nice and go above and beyond to help. The breakfast is delicious and varied, the rooms are clean and have all you need, and the hotel is two blocks away from the beach. We really enjoyed our stay here!"

"The Villa Aloni exceeded all our expectations in terms of quality and facilities. We were looking for somewhere in "hidden Crete" and this property in Maza gave us a sense of rural remoteness but with access to the national road (and easy drives to Hania and Rethymnon) in 5 minutes. The villa was excellently equipped with every modern convenience (except a dishwasher which might have been an asset for a larger party). Everything worked effectively and when the kettle broke, this was replaced...

"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. Everything felt exceptionally clean and well maintained, with a calm, relaxed atmosphere that made it easy to unwind.
Our room was light, airy and spacious, with a recently refurbished boutique feel. The small kitchenette was very handy for snacks and chilled drinks, and the partial sea view was a lovely way to start each morning.
Staff were consistently friendly and welcoming, always greeting us as we came and went. They shared helpful local knowledge and arranged a taxi to Knossos so we could avoid organised tours and arrive early, which really supported our children’s neurodivergent needs.
Although we booked room only, we enjoyed snacks from the pool bar, and the food and drink options were great. The location was ideal: our teens could easily access the nearby beach and shops, and there were plenty of restaurants within walking distance. Staff also recommended quieter spots further along the beach for sunbeds.
The pool was a perfect size, and all the facilities we saw were tidy and well maintained. We especially appreciated the relaxed vibe, the helpful staff, and being close to restaurants without being in the busiest part of Rethymno.
Minor downsides were the small bathroom and limited storage — a chest of drawers or extra shelving would have been useful, and the wardrobe needed more hangers.
Overall, we absolutely loved our stay and would happily return."
"Amazing stay at the resort! The pool and beach were both amazing, very comfortable sunbeds and very clean. Service was slightly lacking at the pool and restaurant and the prices for drinks by the pool were quite high. The buffet dinner was excellent, and the breakfast was good as well. The room was lovely and very clean. Overall, we would recommend as a resort but we would choose to stay closer to Old Town on our next visit."
"Excellent service from the staff at the hotel at breakfast and at dinners. Clean rooms with modern fit out. Overall well located property with easy access to old town and the beach ofcourse."
"Perfectly situated in the small town of Georgioupoli. Plenty of places to eat (highly recommend Poseidon!) & drink all within walking distance.
Right on the beach, with private & free loungers for hotel guests and food/drink service.
The staff were very helpful and welcoming on arrival (shout out to Kaan).
Would definitely stay here again and I don't say that about anywhere!
Genuinely the photos don't do the hotel justice.
Only thing that let the hotel/area down was the amount of litter and cockroaches around the staircase up to our room which just kept accumulating over a few days."
"We had a superior sea view room which did not disappoint. We only stayed 3 nights but thoroughly enjoyed it. Evenings are chilled, and daytimes we used the private beach. An overall luxurious resort."
