I had an exceptional stay at this hotel. It's not large, which adds to its charm, and the staff were simply fantastic. The beach is stunning, with direct access from the hotel – no need to cross any roads. The breakfasts were amazing, offering a wide variety of delicious options. It's conveniently located close to Rethymno, making it easy to explore the area. The spa was a delightful experience, and I highly recommend booking a private room with a sauna and Turkish bath. My teenage daughters absolutely loved it. All in all, a wonderful place to relax and enjoy.

We couldn't have been happier with our choice of a hotel! It's located a few kilometers outside of the center and the old town but this was only a positive thing for us - lying by the pool (a big and clean pool for that matter) it was actually calm and quiet with only some birdsong to be heard. The hotel also provided a free shuttle every half an hour to the center and back so the distance was not an issue whatsoever. The staff was a m a z i n g, I can't compliment them enough. It must've been the warmest welcome I've received at any hotel, in any country, and they kept being so genuinely kind and helpful for our whole stay. The restaurant upstairs offers you the best sunset view in town and we actually ended up having dinner there almost every night since the food was also great there. The breakfast buffet was so great as well, with a big variety of food and omelets made to order. If (and hopefully, when) I return to Chania, I will definitely stay at Royal Sun again.

Crete highlights

Chania Old Town and Harbour

Along with its Venetian Harbour and colourful market, the winding alleyways of Chania let you wander through architectural history.

Phaestos

Phaestos was a major centre of the Minoan Civilisation and is where the famous Phaestos Disc was discovered.

Elafonnisi Beach

Endless beaches with unique pink sand, and out in the crystal-clear waters is the islet of Elafonissi.

Samaria Gorge

Extending from the village of Omalos right down to the Mediterranean, this gorge is renowned for wildlife and hiking.

Preveli Beach

A breathtaking sight, at Preveli Beach you can experience natural spa pools.

Falassarna Beach

Falassarna's kilometre of fine sand and turquoise waters is just waiting to be enjoyed.

Spinalonga Island

The Venetian fortress of Spinalonga Island was used as a leper colony during the first half of the 20th century.

Arkadi Monastery

The 16th century Arkadi Monastery is a stunning piece of Renaissance architecture and symbol of resistance against the Ottomans.

Rethymno Venetian Harbour and Fortress

Walking around the narrow streets, from the Venetian Harbour to the well-preserved Fortezza Castle, definitely makes Rethymno worth a visit.

Knossos Palace

Knossos was the ancient centre of the Minoan Civilisation. Come and visit its colourful frescoes and maze of buildings.

FAQs about hotels on Crete

Centuries of History, Days of Sunshine

The largest Greek island, mountainous Crete has stunning beaches, plenty of history and as much or little nightlife as you want. Party town Malia has many bars, clubs and restaurants on its Strip.

Along the coast is the capital Heraklion, a bustling city home to many Crete hotels on the beach, and a Venetian castle guarding its port. Its archaeological museum includes finds from the island’s Minoan era, while just inland are the Roman remains of Knossos.

Also boasting a Venetian castle is Rethymnon, a popular resort with a good number of Crete hotels with private pools on Booking.com. Loggerhead turtles nest in season on the sandy beaches here and at Chania, an important port with an attractive waterfront set against the backdrop of mountains.

On the other side of the island is Aghios Nikolaos, a small fishing town with a picturesque harbour. Just north is Elounda, a popular family resort, and offshore is Spinaloga island, inspiration behind the book ‘The Island’. Matala in the south has a bohemian vibe and intriguing cliff dwellings, while Paleokastro in the east borders Europe’s largest palm forest at Vai.

We could go on and on about magnificent Crete beaches, but whichever resort you choose, you can be almost guaranteed fantastic food and a good helping of sunshine.

The property is absolutely fantastic. Location is superb. Facilities are great. Great breakfast, variety of Lunch, snacks and wonderful dinner every day. We were on All Inclusive, so we didn’t need anything else regarding food and drinks. We had 2 rooms, one of them with a private pool and it was really beautiful. Rooms are very spacious and with all the necessities required. Both rooms were equipped with a small kitchenette a living room which we had a sofa bed in, separate bedroom and a bathroom . Shower was very spacious and comfortable. The room with the private pool was also with snacks, wine, beer, soft drinks etc. The private beach and the beach is really nice.

Our stay was amazing. First, the hotel is simply beautiful, with stunning views of the sea and great architecture. The big swimming pool with sea water and the hotel beach were top notches. Our room with a private swimming pool was perfect for a stay with our kid. Indeed, in spite of being a luxury hotel, Amirandes is definitely a place for families. The days' schedules (meals, activities...) seem to always take into account the needs of the youngest clients. The place is also very quiet, we never had any issues for getting good sleep. The staff was always very helpful and polite. The restaurant had a great choice of food which was always pretty tasty.

The old town is worth visiting especially during low season, when there is more space and tourists are not jostling for restaurant tables and selfie spots. There are several good restaurants in the old Venetian port, look for places where locals are eating.

We were sadly only here for a quick overnight stay. But during our week in Crete - where we travelled to Chania, Heraklion, and Rethymno - Rethymno was by some margin my favourite destination. Where Chania's historic centre felt as if it had been totally given over to tourism, Rethymno felt more like a substantial town with plenty to explore.

Difficult to judge because we came early in the season when there was a cold wind blowing and not all the places were open. However, there didn't seem to be many places to eat [not a problem for us as there was one excellent place, though would be a problem peak season] . There were a number of apparently abandoned and ill-maintained buildings, which made the place appear less attractive.

The perfect place for peaceful vacation. The city itself is nice but not something extraordinary, but you get the best food in Greece alongside the best beaches in the World!
