The hotel was very nice but the food was aimed more at their German clients. A couple of the staff were more interested in serving the German guests. Wish the brochure warned you o the charge for the sunbeds and brolleys. Apart from that it was avery nice and relaxing holiday more

This was our first time in Crete and I would definitely recommend the Hotel Golden Beach and Rethymnon as a resort for couples. Room was comfortable and overlooked the reception. Daily maid service, fridge and TV in room. Hotel is family run and is very quaint with cretan artwork throughout and murals to external walls. In the evening the reception... more

On our arrival at the Golden Beach we was greeted with a relaxed very helpful attitude. Our first impression of the room was very small with a view into the dinning hall, I went down to reception to ask if there was anymore rooms available and without hesitation I was given three more room keys to go and view, we... more

When we arrived at the Golden Beach after an hour and half coach trip we was very pleasantly greeted by the hotel reception staff. We was given our room... more

Great selection of food and salad. Hotel is situated right on the beach, and has a space on the beach allocated for its residents. Free water melon every day. Loved... more

I visited this hotel with my wife and two year old boy on 11 August for one week. This is a fairly large family run hotel with a beautiful beach only 150 yrds or so from the rear entrance. Although the initial room we were given upon arrival was disappointing as it had no view, only a carpark, the staff... more
