Late Greek getaway

Oct 2022 | C8404MOadriand

After reading all the positive reviews we chose the Thalassi hotel because we wanted a typical Greek family run hotel and we were not disappointed. On arrival at the hotel we received a warm welcome from Eva who checked us in and showed us to our room. The room was spacious and spotlessly clean. Breakfast was taken at the hotel with a variety of fresh hot /cold selection to suit all in a relaxing atmosphere with friendly staff. Evening meals were taken at the Thalassi restaurant which was a short pleasant walk through the village and either used the underpass (or crossed the main road when traffic was quieter) or use the free transport supplied by the hotel. We were greeted by Dimitri and his staff who were always pleasant and passionate about the dishes that were prepared for us. The restaurant is overlooking the sea with wonderful views and a beautiful sunset. We enjoyed our evenings at the restaurant with Dimitri’s hospitality and occasional Greek entertainment. We liked to walk so had easy access on the one side to the coastline where we found some fantastic beaches and on the other side to the mountains to find some small traditional Cretan villages. There is a convenient bus stop in the village where you can get local buses to explore the island.(get your bus tickets from supermarket). Areas around the hotel were immaculate where you could relax other than the pool. Also down at the restaurant there is a grassed area where you can relax using the sun beds overlooking the sea. Anyone who is looking for a small friendly typical Greek holiday then don’t hesitate in looking at Thalassi. We can’t thank Dimitri, Eva and their staff for their wonderful hospitality, looking forward to our next visit. A & C Davies.

Peace and quiet, warm sea, good food, excellent service near to Rethymno!

Even though mid-October was at the end of the season, Thalassi Hotel owner Dimitris, his wife and staff were brilliant. Service was always helpful and with a smile. The hotel is spotlessly clean and comfortable. A few hundred metres from the main hotel, the A La Carte menu at their seaside restaurant was excellent, much of the fresh food grown on their own farms. Beautiful views to the north east of the island. Access to a nice beach is close to the restaurant. If you're looking for a quiet place from which to explore Crete at a reasonable price, then I would recommend Thalassi.

Dire experience

Oct 2022 | Dennis W

Just back from the Thalassi this hotel is the worst we,ve ever stayed in how has it got 3 stars if you,re in a renovated room you,re fine otherwise beware they are like stepping back in time dark with no patio door just one small window, the bathroom is awful - dirty grouting and the shower area is just painted cement no tiling or shower tray, towels were only changed twice in 11 days bin only emptied every other day and given that toilet paper goes in the bin that is not very nice, the breakfast buffet is dire the only fresh fruit is melon otherwise it,s tinned peaches every day don,t expect a full english you wont get one it,s sausage one day bacon the next never together everything is cold the hottest thing is the toast, then there,s the evening meal which is taken at the owners restaurant because the hotel doesn,t have it,s own if you don,t use the minibus it,s just under 1/2 mile walk across a busy fast road otherwise it,s the underpass which is grim, don,t expect restaurant food what you will get is a poor buffet which is always cold the soup isn,t bad and the only hot thing there oh and it,s child size plates if you want good hot food try either the taverna over the road to the hotel or the coffee stop, please don,t make the same mistake as us and be swayed by all the good reviews these people should try somewhere else and experience a proper 3 star hotel. Never been so glad to get on the transfer coach.
