My stay at Cressa - Adults Only in Rethymno was good. the beautifully decorated room was comfortable and offered a peaceful retreat. While the breakfast had limited options, I appreciated the fresh ingredients and the fact it was delivered to my room. However, the pricing felt a bit high for such a brief stay, especially since I only needed it for one night before heading to Santorini.

The room was charmingly decorated and had a comfortable king-sized bed. I loved the private deck with a large Jacuzzi, even if I didn't use it. The bathroom facilities were quite impressive too, with a spacious shower that didn’t cause a mess on the floor.

My stay at Cressa was truly good. the unique boutique feel made me feel right at home, and the staff were extraordinarily friendly and helpful. The breakfast was a nice experience, packed with fresh local flavors, though I did find my room to be a bit on the smaller side for the price. Overall, I would gladly return for the charm and hospitality.

My stay at Cressa - Adults Only was truly nice. The location in the heart of Rethymno's Old Town made exploring easy, but I loved that the hotel was on a quiet street away from the hustle and bustle. The breakfast, delivered daily in a charming basket, featured good surprises, though I wished there were more variety like whole grain options. Overall, it was a relaxing getaway with really good service! 😊

The room was spacious, uniquely decorated, and featured a private deck with a large Jacuzzi that I adored—even though I didn't end up using it. The separate areas for the shower, toilet, and sink were practical, and overall, the bed was very comfortable. I just found the mattress a bit firmer than I prefer.
