The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Wonderful Food Experience

During my stay, I was incredibly impressed by the dining options available at the hotel. The restaurant served some of the best meals I've ever had, particularly the homemade moussaka and prawn saganaki. The prices were very reasonable, making it a great value for anyone wanting to enjoy authentic Greek cuisine. Not to mention, they offered good mezes with our drinks, which added to the overall experience. It truly felt like a culinary journey!

Camari's location offers a peaceful vibe, yet it's just a short taxi ride to Rethymno for all the touristy stuff. Access to a lovely beach is a bonus, but be prepared for the uphill walk back!
