May Beach Hotel

Great hotel, kind of boutique hotel just a bit larger, outside the crowded Rethymon but easy to reach from there. Nice garden and pool, Very clean. Lovely people, seems to me it is one big family, all with passion for the hotel and their guests. Good buffet in the morning and evening, we had half-pension. Drinks are not to expensive. They made a path through the dry river to reach the beach, beach is then only a few minutes away.

We ended up at the May Beach Hotel due to our original hotel being cancelled 10 days before. However, the May Beach hotel was perfect, the family ran business made sure our stay was everything we hoped for. We had a lovely room, decorated in a modern style with a comfortable bed and plenty of storage space. The bathroom was on the small side but we managed. We were all inclusive, the food was excellent, always plenty to choose from throughout the day. The drinks menu was what you would expect for all inclusive, however the cocktails were disappointing as served in regular glass with no fruit or decoration which would have been nice considering we were on holiday. Be aware that all-inclusive drinks are only served until 11pm and after that you have to pay. The location was perfect for the local village, which was a 10 minute walk, where there was plenty of restaurants, bars and shops. A visit to the old town was either a cab or bus ride away and we visited this area twice. The beach was just down a short pathway and easy to locate. The family were always present and worked along side their friendly and helpful staff to deliver excellent service and a feel good vibe. On the whole we had a quiet, relaxing and enjoyable stay at the May Beach Hotel.

We were received very warmly – even personally by the hotel manager, which immediately gave us a very welcoming feeling. The food was plentiful, varied, and exceptionally delicious. We particularly enjoyed the beautiful pool areas with palm trees and well-kept lawns, which create a wonderful vacation atmosphere. The evening program with Greek music was grand and perfectly rounded off the stay. The service throughout the hotel was consistently friendly and attentive. Overall, a beautiful hotel complex where one immediately feels at home. We would gladly return!
