About this hotel
Elina Hotel Apartments offers a welcoming, family-run atmosphere just a short stroll from Rethymno's organised sandy beach, where a variety of watersports await. The hotel's seasonal outdoor pool, complete with a dedicated children's section, provides a refreshing alternative to the sea. Each studio and apartment is designed for comfort, featuring air conditioning, a well-equipped kitchenette with a fridge and cooking hobs, and soundproofed spaces with COCO-MAT mattresses for a restful sleep. Guests will appreciate the flat-screen TV with satellite channels and a safety deposit box. Some accommodations are split-level, adding to the sense of space. The location is ideal for exploring, with traditional Cretan tavernas, cafes, and the charm of the Old Town, including the Venetian Fortress, all within easy walking distance.

Our take
Elina Hotel Apartments scores 8.4 from about 603 reviews, a very good result on a solid sample. Its strengths are the beach about 100 metres away, a seasonal pool with a children's section, and air-conditioned studios and apartments with kitchenettes. The Old Town and the Venetian Fortezza can be reached on foot. I would recommend it to families who like to cook a few meals themselves. Travellers who want nightlife right outside the door may prefer a room inside the Old Town.
- ✓Take advantage of the kitchenette facilities for preparing light meals, especially if travelling with family.
- ✓Explore the Old Town and Venetian Fortress in the cooler morning or late afternoon hours to avoid the midday heat.
- ✓Walk to the nearby beach to enjoy watersports or simply relax on the sand, it's only 100 metres away.
