Anita Beach Hotel- Adults Only

Forget yor fancy hotels anita beach was fantastic. A lovely hospitable family.2 minutes walk from beach,lovely rooms very clean, pool small but felt like my own personal pool during certain times of the day. The feel of being treated like family by such lovely people made our first experience in crete amazing. Could not think of a lovelier place to stay . Thank you marina and family you made our holiday very special x Pauline and matt

Good hotel for staying at the beach without overspending. It's only a block walk to the water, and there are plenty of restaurants within a short walk. About 10 min drive to old town Rethymno, or I think 30+ min walk. The room is comfortable enough, though perhaps could use some design updates. Nice balcony attached to our room, and easy access to the pool. Filling breakfast buffet was included with the room. All in all, a great place to stay at Rethymno Beach area.

We stayed at Anita Beach for a week and rated it highly for a 3* hotel. The staff were always helpful and friendly. The room was very clean and decorated well. AC & WIFI were free and worked well. There is a safe that you can pay €2 a day in the room but we did not feel the need. There are tavernas and mini-markets within a shirt walk. The beach is a couple of minutes walk. Breakfast was included; basic but always fresh. Definitely would go back and recommend it for other couples who do not want to be in the busiest area but not too far from it. To get to Rethymno Town was about a 30 minutes slow walk. We did it a few times but we also caught a taxi as it was just so hot. A taxi was €6 and the nearest taxi rank was at the beach (2 minutes walk). The old town is lovely. Many, many restaurants and shops. Taverna proprietors do ask you to come in and eat but if you don't want to just say so. In general we paid about €35 for a meal for 2 with some alcohol. There is always a freebie given such as a small dessert or drink. There is a market that sells fruit and veg, clothes etc in the centre on Thursday and Saturday. There is an open top bus ride (€15 per adult) which takes you around the town and out to local attractions just outside such as a military museum, a gorge and a monastery. If you want to go into an attraction you pay extra. The beach is mainly sandy, with a few pebbles nearer the water. Beach shoes help as the sea is rocky. You can hire 2 sunbeds with a shade very easily. These are €6 for the day or free if you buy drinks from the taverna who supply them. The beach is clean, although one day my husband found a syringe on the beach so just be aware. You can book trips or hire a car very easily. We hired an A class car for €30 and drove to Chania, stopping off at various places in between. The main road is easy to use. Overall, we really enjoyed our Crete holiday. The weather was great (28 to 33c). We would certainly recommend the hotel and Rethymno.

We had a fabulous week long stay here, returning last weekend. The hotel was perfect for our needs. The rooms are modern and bright and kept immaculately clean. The staff are all incredibly friendly and helpful. Not sure exactly how many rooms they have, but I am pretty sure it’s less than 30. As such you won’t find all the facilities of larger hotels but the only way to be disappointed is if you haven’t checked the website to confirm which facilities that the hotel offers. The beach is a 2 minute walk away, with a couple of shops close by and there are lots of tavernas and cafes to eat in. It’s about a 30 minute walk to the start of the old town, which is a lot busier, but offers even greater choice. With plenty of places to stop along the route to eat and drink, we enjoyed the walk along the promenade to the old town. We had such a great week that we are already planning a second visit and will be staying at the Anita Beach again.

I love this family hotel in Rethymnon and come back every year! Great value for you money, amazing location at the end of the beach road - away from all the noice and next to a Blue-Flag- Beach. The family that runs it is super helpful and serviceminded and makes this hotel feel like a second home for me. Great wifi, all renovated rooms, big fridge and amazing matresses.

Zeer verzorgd hotel; propere slaapkamer met alle comfort en badkamer met douche. Vriendelijke eigenares die zelfs nederlands spreekt. Verzorgd ontbijtbuffet. Parkeergelegenheid is moeilijker in de omgeving. Goedkope taxi naar stadscentrum en veel eetgelegenheden in de directe omgeving.

Personnel agréable et professionnel. Etablissement propre, chambre et autres aménagements fidèles à la description. Seul point negatif pas de parking et se garer à proximité peut être compliqué.
