Pools and Spa
The outdoor swimming pool is the perfect place to cool off under the Mediterranean sun. Surrounded by comfortable loungers and umbrellas, you can spend your afternoons soaking up the peaceful atmosphere. While the hotel focuses on simple relaxation rather than a full spa, the quiet hilltop location offers a naturally tranquil setting. Please note that any massage services or wellness treatments requested through the reception may be subject to additional charges.
Beach
The sandy and pebbly shores of Sfakaki Beach are within walking distance, located approx. 300 metres from your front door. It’s a lovely spot for a morning swim or a quiet evening walk as the sun goes down. If you want to spend the day there, sun loungers and umbrellas are available on the beach at an extra charge from local providers. The clear waters here are also popular with those who enjoy a bit of snorkelling.
Sport and Entertainment
The atmosphere at Radamanthy's is all about slow-paced relaxation and Cretan hospitality. You can enjoy a friendly game of billiards in the lounge area or catch up on the latest news with the communal satellite TV. As evening falls, the pool bar provides a chic setting for a quiet cocktail or a glass of local wine. For a more energetic night out, the vibrant bars and clubs of Rethymno are easily accessible by a short taxi or bus ride.
Family Amenities
Families will find a welcoming "home-away-from-home" atmosphere here.
