- Thomaas (5/5): Für eine Woche und für unempfindliche Menschen die eine günstige Bleibe in Rethymno suchen Okay. - Die Lage des Hotels. Die Küche war für Selbstversorger voll ausgestattet. Fitnessraum war OK, Badelaken für Liegestühle kostenlos. Personal an der Rezeption freundlich aber unverbindlich. Die Zimmerreinigung war eine Katastrophe. Essensreste von vorherigen Gästen in den Schränken, Überall Staub und Haare, trotz täglicher "Reinigung" ... sehr oberflächlich!
Es existierten nur Laken zum zudecken, was für heiße Sommertage sinnvoll ist, aber nicht im Oktober.
Kreta-Ansichtskarten für Familie an Rezeption abgegeben - kamen aber nie an (wahrscheinlich nicht versandt)!!
Sehr viele Tauben im Innenhof, dementsprechend laut und schmutzig. Gebühren für Liegestühle am Strand, 5,- p.Tg., war nicht in der Booking.com-Hotelbeschreibung ausgewiesen.

- Carlos (8/5): Buena estancia en Rethymno - depto moderno con instalaciones casi nuevas, bien insonorizado. tiene ascensor !! excelente ducha con buena presion. no tiene estacionamiento y en esa zona es un problema
- Lori (8/5): -
- Adela-Diana (9/5): Great location, friendly staff - Excellent location, right by the beach. The staff was very friendly. The room was spacious, and there was a separating wall between the kitchen area and the bed area - which was very nice when it came to the AC, since the AC was in the kitchen area, so you could keep the room cooled without having cold air blowing directly towards the bed. Not a big issue, but the pool being in an inner courtyard between several tall-ish buildings meant that starting mid-afternoon the whole pool would be in the shade for the rest of the day. So if you want to go to the pool, better earlier in the day.
There was a coffee filter in the room, would be nice to have a capsule/nespresso machine.
- Sofia (9/5): Prisvärt, fräscht och trevligt - Bodde i ett deluxe superior rum. Otroligt modernt med allt som behövs. Jag lagade inte mat men såg att det fanns tillbehör för att kunna göra det. Stort kök/vardagsrum och stort sovrum. Badrummet vet jag att folk kan tycka är små men det störde inte mig alls.
Jag bokade otroligt nära inpå så lyckades inte få havsutsikt men jag skulle absolut betala lite extra för det. Utsikten blir annars mot innergården och poolen. Störde inte mig heller, gick bara ut och såg på utsikten därifrån.
Personalen var otroligt trevlig och hjälpsam!
Städningen var bra men skulle bara dra en extravända under madrassen efter varje besök.
Det finns massa restauranger på gatan nedanför (både turistiga men också små fina tavernor). Rakt över gatan ligger beachen.
Tar cirka 20 min att gå in till själva staden Rethmynon. Har inget att klaga på. Ta bara en extra runda under madrassen efter gäst checkat ut :)
- Mikayel (10/5): absolutely relaxing stay at a hotel with kindest staff - The bed, the balcony, the pool AC was occasionally not working but the manager fixed it.
- Szymon (8/5): - Widok z balkonu na morze Zapach w pokoju i stara lazienka

- Anna (9/5): Superb - Lovely staff. The pool area was nice and chill and the balcony overlooking the sea was a great place to sit in the evening. The bathroom is a little dated compared to the rest of the facilities but was functional.
- Alexandru (9/5): Superb -
- Tania (9/5): Enjoyable stay overall - Location, view of the beach, beachfront. Paying 2 euro per day for safe
- Paraskevi (9/5): Superb -
- Anna (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gary (10/5): Good quality hotel - Lovely place nice welcome at reception even very late (2330£
Close to beach sun beds 8 euros for the day )
Service very very good
Worth a visit Leaving
- Ortrun (7/5): Okay for a short stay, but I wouldn't book it again - The view over the sea and to the old harbour is attractive. The beach consists of rows and rows of sun loungers and parasols. Great if that's your beach cup of tea. Reception staff are nice and helpful. The hotel is on a very busy road, traffic until late at night. Parking is not easy anywhere in Rethymno. Try turning right at the corner where the hotel is (there's a car hire place at that corner) and look for street parking on your right. You might be lucky. My morning was a bit spoilt by incessant beeping from the room's electronics (I assume the aircon). Removing the room key from the "socket" for 30 seconds sorted the issue. Worst of all, the sheets smelt weird (the detergent used by the hotel?).
- Anita (8/5): Very good - Lovely restaurants nearby. The pool is nice too. Great location Booking.com may say this place has a free parking which is one of the main reason why I chose this place. There is no designated parking spots for this hotel which was unexpected. Be prepared to find a parking area nearby on the sidewalk if you are driving.
- Ali (10/5): Would definitely stay here again! - Fantastic location across the road from the sea. Very comfy beds and lovely hot shower. Plenty of space on the room and staff were incredibly helpful.
Parking available across the road or up the side streets.
- Lihten (10/5): Exceptional -
- James (7/5): Good -
- Stanislava (5/5): Passable - The location was decent and the staff were friendly.
- Roberto (1/5): Disappointing . We had to figure out a way to spend as little as possible in the hotel. - The rooms advertised on the website did not reflect the actual room we got . Although this can happen , the difference between what’s advertised and the actual room was too much . The “ pool view “ room was actually a room with a balcony facing an ugly building in front of us . Everything except the staff. They were polite, kind and very helpful .
- Ying (9/5): Superb - Very good service! Slightly far from the old town. Especially when it’s hot outside, walking can be unpleasant with small children.
- Ioannis (9/5): Superb -
- Fran (10/5): Perfect - EVERYTHING, The pool was so nice, the luggage room and shower’s fantastic. The interior. But the BEST thing was the staff, so nice and a big shoutout to Kalliopi the receptionist. She was amazing and helped us with everything and answered all our questions. She was very very nice! Great job! And thank you for everything!
- Donatas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Eilidh (8/5): Great customer service! Book a sea view room! - Good location and the pool area and lobby are nice. We stayed in a pool view room which was a good price but was very outdated to the point of seeming grubby. However, our stay was made great by the fantastic service we received from Voula on front desk. She went over and above in helping us with an issue we were having with our Greek SIM card. Thank you so much! :)
- Bv202 (9/5): Superb - Lovely and friendly staff!
Great location near old town and at the beach front. Pool facilities were great also for days the weather wasn't nice enough for the beach!
- Notual (8/5): Good seaside hotel, - Very good location, beautiful clean hotel. Very helpful staff. There is a kitchenette, but it is poorly equipped.
- Ioannis (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vinay (8/5): Good apartment on the beach - - fantastic location, right on the beach - with restaurants close by
- good value for money - room is a bit old, cramped and not very well maintained
- Sander (8/5): Very good -
- Fiona (10/5): perfect stay! - lovely modern studio apartment with a beautiful sea view.
staff are very friendly & helpful, excellent service and attention to detail, they decorated our room with rose petals, balloons, chocolates and a bottle of wine for our honeymoon!
the bed was super comfortable.
pool area looks new and a lovely area to sit and relax.
the whole hotel is spotlessly clean! nothing!
- Krystian (10/5): Amazing holiday in Medusa - The apartment is located next to the beach and lots of restaurants and shops nearby.
Big shout to the girls on the reception they looked after us , always willing to help .
The cleaning service was outstanding .
We highly recommended Medusa Apartments. All was perfect.
- Gary (5/5): Passable - Nice room good size and comfortable with sea view over beach and Venetian harbour. No private parking and not advised in advance. Very small shower and damp smell from bathroom.
- Markogiannakis (10/5): Exceptional -
