Guest reviews
Exceptional
Liked: Friendly and great location. Quite around the pool.
Disliked: Quite noisy between 7am and 9am due to washing machine and staff setting up for breakfast. Bottom sheets don't fit the bed and mattress toppers synthetic so very hot.
Lovely apartments, great location, very lovely staff
Liked: Great location, nice clean rooms with regular cleaning and towels. Good use of space, we had a duplex apartment. Good air con, well equipped kitchen
Disliked: No real downsides, sometimes the pool was busy and not enough beds and imagine in higher season this could be a challenge, however the beach is just outside the front door! Our air-con extractors were on the balcony floor which meant warm air blowing on us when we sat outside. We did turn them off but that meant the air con wasn’t in inside. Bathroom quite small and not much room between toilet and sink. No real ventilation. Pool could do with a clean, water was clean but the walls were quite green, also lots of people slipped on the steps in so just took more care getting into the pool
Cosy stay at Rethymno
Liked: Location is great, at the beach, distance to the center of the town approx 2.5 km, but a peasant walk. Staff is super, super helpful! Excellent tavernas nearby (we enjoyed Vatania Tavern super much). The room could be a bit tiny for 2+1kid. We appreciated a lot the breakfast; it is not a buffet, but is served especially for you and you have the option to choose between several options. Parking space in front of the hotel is limited, but we managed to find free space every time and very closeby, so it was not a problem at all. The room is well equipped with a kitchen, which we almost did not use, but appreciated. Very nice selection of books and some board games were available in the lobby and downfloor:). The pool is small, but well maintained and we appreciated it a lot on more windy days. Overall a very pleasant experience!
Disliked: The bathroom was tinier than expected and with limited space for bath stuff. The room size is good enough for 2, a bit tiny for 2+1. The road in front could be a bit noisy at fully open doors. But these all are small details. We enjoyed our stay a lot!
A wonderful stay in a great location with fantastic staff – we would definitely come back!
Liked: We had a really enjoyable stay at Yacinthos. The apartment was clean, spacious and comfortable. The air conditioning worked perfectly, the room on the mezzanine was surprisingly spacious, and the kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. The Wi-Fi was also very good – fast, stable and reliable throughout our stay. A huge plus was the staff. Both the owners and the rest of the team were extremely friendly, helpful and always welcoming. They created a really nice and relaxed holiday atmosphere. The swimming pool was great – the main pool is about 1.4 m deep, with a separate shallow pool of around 0.8 m. The location is excellent. The beach is only about 300 metres away, so just a few minutes’ walk. There are plenty of restaurants, tavernas and small shops nearby, and the harbour and Old Town are around a 15-minute walk away. We had a really enjoyable time here and left very happy with our stay. We would definitely recommend Yacinthos and will certainly come back again in the future. 😊
Disliked: There were only two minor downsides. The bathroom is unfortunately very small, especially the shower area. A larger or taller person may find it quite uncomfortable and have difficulty using the shower comfortably. The pool water could also, in my opinion, be chlorinated a little more, as the steps became slippery quite quickly. Neither of these issues had a significant impact on our stay, and overall we were very happy with our experience.
Excellent hotel with a proper location, pool, great breakfast, and wonderfully friendly staff
Liked: Everything about our stay at the Yacinthos Hotel was excellent. The pool was lovely, and the beach is just a few meters away, you really couldn't ask for a better, more convenient location. There's a taxi stand right nearby, along with several good restaurants within easy walking distance, which made getting around and dining out effortless. The breakfast was very good, offering a great start to each day, and the staff were consistently polite, friendly, and welcoming throughout our stay. We can wholeheartedly recommend the Yacinthos Hotel to anyone looking for comfort, a great location, and warm hospitality.
Liked: Great place to stay with nice pool extremely clean and great location. Unfortunately did not meet any staff members except cleaning girls who were extremely nice.
