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.

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.
