Pearl Beach

The sea view room was amazing. The rooms are spotlessly clean, the staff were all really nice. The breakfast and dinner wasn’t too bad but it doesn’t suit everyone. The pool wasn’t too crowded and you could always get a sun lounger or go to the beach where you can order drinks from the hotel app which was very handy. The drinks are a bit more pricey than normal bars in Rethymno, but the drinks were nice. A short walk away from some of the best restaurants in Rethymno such as Vatania Meze Bar, Nostos and Hercules. A €6 tax fare to the old town where you can see many more bars and restaurants (avoid Remezzo please!) The evening entertainment was great especially the Greek dancing. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and really glad we booked with Pearl Beach. Would definitely recommend to friends to visit here one day.

First time to Crete and we stayed at the Pearl Beach. We had such a stunning sea view from our balcony. Room cleaned, towels changed daily. Staff were so friendly a shout out to Elina, Sofia who served us for breakfast and pool side bar. When hotel is full the beds for the pool were limited but we stayed on the beach where they have plenty of beds and still have a food and drinks service. Cannot wait to come back!

Very nice place- good location, quiet place, beautiful garden, tasty kitchen, good staff. The hotel is located near the beach and so close to Rethymno old town- beautiful small town, where you can walk every day.

Back again at our favourite hotel. The staff at the Pearl Beach are just amazing welcoming us back as if we were family. The hotel is across from the beach where Yoanna looks after everybody with a smile. Beach service/ food is really excellent. Beer, coffee, lovely sandwiches all brought to our sunbed ordered through an app. As returning guests we were treated to a welcoming reception evening with the Management of the hotel. A lovely gesture. Entertainment at night is very good. Staff in the restaurant are very professional and friendly, food is varied and lots of choices. A lot of the staff have been there for 20+ years and are a credit to the Hotel.

Arrived late at night ,staff were lovely and brought us food up to the room All the staff were lovely especially pool bar and reception. Couple of people in the restaurant need to smile a bit and interact with holidaymakers,especially the freshly cooked fish,meat counter Food was mostly ok but the restaurant was very noisy and didn't flow well,too small for the size of the hotel. Always had to wait for dishes to be refilled and desserts were not always replaced. Fresh cooked pancakes and eggs each morning. You could make your own fresh orange juice if you don't mind queuing,this queue use to block up the walkways for others so the juicer could maybe be moved to a better area. Eat outside for a more relaxing atmosphere Food at the pool bar was very nice ,evening drinks from the bar quite expensive. Pools were nice but very cold,not many sun beds in the sun until the afternoon. Some decent entertainment ,didn't see it every night. The room was average,a bit noisy at the front of the hotel ,luckily the evenings were cool enough to have the doors shut but still needed air buds to sleep some nights.Bedroom was clean and sheets and towels changed regularly. Maybe more drawers in the room would be helpful Free safe in the room . Hairdryer was not great,take your own if you have long hair. Bathroom really let the room down,2 star at best. Very dated and in need of an upgrade. Shower was extremely slow and hard to get your whole body under it lacked any pressure. We mentioned this at reception and the shower head was changed which really didn't make a difference. Bathroom smelt awful when you had been out for the day and toilet hadn't been used,some tiles chipped and grout had started to go black Area was very nice ,about a 25 minute walk into the old town which is so beautiful,great restaurants,shops and history to see. €6 for a cab if you don't want to walk. Nice beach over the road ,the hotel has its own area but you have to pay €7 for 2 sunbeds and an umbrella,not too bad but if you go down the beach a tiny bit you get free beds and just pay for your drinks which are very reasonable and we had really nice food in a couple of the beach bars. A couple of supermarkets ,shops and restaurants near by. If we went again we would pay a bit more and stay at the Aegean Beach which is attached to this hotel

Firstly I don’t think adjoining rooms should be given to guests who are not on the same booking we had room 52 connected to room 51 sound proofing was poor we could hear EVERYTHING! room is on the lower ground the patio area for us was unusable overlooked by room 51 and eight rooms opposite, old piece of fake grass , mud and random paving which was unsafe, in the room only one electrical socket near the bed which did not work and was loose ( mentioned in another review by someone else) bathroom more like 2star just to save on the response from the hotel I have attached all the pictures. We like lots of other traveler's get to the room unpack and begin the holiday by the time you see everything the next day who wants to or should have to complain and move rooms , breakfast was fine evening buffet bit poor we ate out 4 from the 7 nights , €7 per day for loungers on the beach best part pool bar for lunch, entertainment hit and miss demonstration on how to make tea! Really!!

The hotel is very good with attentive staff, comfortable rooms and beds, two lovely pools with sufficient loungers, when we went, and access to the hotel beach just across the road, where it was easy to have drinks and food served to your area. The beach was clean with lovely clear water. The hotel is situated at the end of the town about a 2 km walk to the centre along the promenade with taxis available if needed. The town has plenty of alleys and streets to wander through and the fortezza to visit on the hill side. There are many restaurants and cafes to stop and enjoy the atmosphere

One of the best hotels and resorts that I've been to. Twin hotels - I stayed in the Aegean Pearl - my room had it's own simiing pool. Mediterranean cuisine with some 'English' dishes - excellent. Very good hotel staff (we kiaised with Uli)
