Cristina, group of friends 08/04/2025DIRECT BOOKING traveler

Mi-a placut foarte mult,criterile noastre de a alege o statiune au fost plaja cu nisip fin aproape de hotel,centrul la distanta de mers pe jos,optiuni de excursii.Sa nu depindem de masina inchiriata sau taxi. Iar seara sunt foarte multe baruri stil club in centru,totul foarte animat.Pentru plaja recomand Baja Beach Club-un club la plaja cu piscina ( se ajunge cu taxi-aprox 7-10€ sau bus -iar setul de 2 sezlonguri incepe de la 25€)si Le Dome Beach.Ca restaurant recomand agrilia,aproape de hotel iar barurile care ne-au placut cel mai mult -LUX si Livingroom.

apa cu multe alge și tulbure, lucru pe care nu l-am mai intalnit in Creta. abia in ultima zi a fost curata și cu valuri. Rethymno este frumos, cu multe magazine, iar cetatea venețiană merita vizitata.
