Harmony Rethymno Beach

"We arrived just before 11pm and unfortunately were allocated a family room, although it did have a private pool. We were travelling with our 18 year old son and his girlfriend who, understandably, didn't fancy spending 10 days sharing with the parents. However, this was resolved the next day and we were given 2 double rooms. The hotel is fine, we found the food to be really good for an all inclusive, and it was great talking to Stavros and finding out how some of the dishes were made. Every single member of staff was friendly. Special mention for Evelina and Marios on reception, and chef Stavros. The sea was great, so much so that my husband and I didn't actually go in the pool at all. The only thing I didn't really like was the reduced drink menu during the day, I like to have a gin and tonic by the pool but you can only have gin, vodka etc after 6pm. We did feel that the evenings were too quiet, but there is a lovely tavern just a few minutes walk away where we spent most of our evenings. The restaurant next door is also very good and have live music on Tuesday evenings. Also would recommend a night out in Rethymno"

"Everything is perfect. Staff, cleanliness, food. The only downside is that the music at the pool level is too loud and the playlist is always the same every day."

"Arrived 11:30pm. Signed in. Then told room was unavailable. Moved to another hotel, we found out we were not the only English family to be moved when checking in. Didn’t even get an apology from staff, he just made sure we paid the hotel tax€10 a night. Moved back to Harmony next morning. Room changed to a better location with Own pool. Would have preferred room on arrival. Hotel very clean. We already knew the location was in a remote area. Wanted a quiet hotel. Buses were very packed. Only 3 other English couples we met. Staff in restaurants were very pleasant. Food typical all inclusive, a bit bland, lots of variety, drinks all ok. As everyone says about the beach, and sea. It is not very easy to get into the sea as it is very rocky. Shoes are a definite yes. Pool area and sun beds ok. Entertainment ok, one night a DJ and one night Greek dancing. Stay was ok. Nothing special. When we went, there wasn’t many English. Did meet some nice people. As anywhere you go there were a mix of nationals. Would we recommend this hotel. Probably not. Shame. There were good points, but not brilliant memories."
