A family-friendly Crete base
Rethymno Village puts you in Platanes, a handy resort area just outside Rethymnon. You’ll have shops, bars, restaurants, and the beach within reach, while Rethymnon’s Venetian harbour, old town lanes, Fortezza, and seafront cafés are a short trip away. It’s a useful base if you want a classic Crete holiday with both beach days and old-town evenings in the mix.
The hotel is built around easy, family-friendly downtime. A swimming pool and children’s pool sit among a palm-lined sun terrace with loungers and umbrellas, so lazy days have a simple rhythm. The poolside bar and snack bar keep drinks and bites close, while practical extras like 24-hour reception, a TV lounge, internet corner, and Wi-Fi help cover the everyday details. It’s relaxed, straightforward, and made for sunny days that do not require a spreadsheet.
Dining is kept convenient with buffet meals in the restaurant, including indoor and outdoor seating. The snack bar adds extra flexibility during the day, and Platanes has plenty nearby if you fancy eating out. Expect tavernas, grills, bakeries, seafood spots, and Cretan plates piled with local flavour. Simple, sunny, and very easy to settle into.
Just so you know, Wi-Fi is available in the public areas only.

Find out more about Rethymnon
Rethymnon, an exceedingly well-preserved Venetian harbour town on Crete’s northern coast, is so rich in history and culture that you could spend months exploring it. The island’s third-largest city is home to a dazzling mix of Ottoman-era mosques, a behemoth fortress and cobblestone streets lined with Venetian buildings. Some of Crete’s most interesting museums – dedicated to everything from contemporary art to archaeological finds – can be explored on your Rethymnon holidays.
