The hotel was beautiful, staff were friendly and helpful, a very enjoyable stay. The breakfasts in particular were amazing, with a wide range of options and local food to try too, changing throughout the week so we really looked forward to what would be new each day.

This was our fourth time staying at the Macaris and every time we have loved it. The staff are welcoming and helpful, the facilities are great, and it's the perfect location for exploring Rethymno without being right in the centre of town.

A pampering boutique hotel at a high level
An amazing and luxurious hotel.
All rooms have balconies with sea view.
Clean room, clean and well maintained hotel facilities.
In front of the hotel there is a small and rocky beach.
The city and the beaches are 3 km away

The apartments were modern clean and spacious a 15 minute walk to the old town which is doable unless extremely hot then you would get a taxi which ranges from 7 to 9 euros depending on which taxi driver you get. The hotel was lovely and my only comment would be that I wish they had more of the staff visit the pool area to ask if we would like a drink instead of having to get up and go to the bar to order. Overall a great stay and very happy with our holiday.

Well appointed property in a nice, but very touristy town. Check in could have been better as the woman at reception was not the most pleasant person.

This property has amazing views and was so relaxing. It’s a little walk to shopping and restaurants in Rethymno but we walked down to the beach area across the street and along the water into town. We really enjoyed our walks and being close to the activity but not too close. The staff was amazing and the breakfast was excellent. The room was perfect, clean and comfortable! We would love to visit again.

We did enjoy our stay very much. The rooms were big enough for 4 people and quiet as well as clean. Very responsive service. The pool area though is too small - most beds were always taken and the water is very warm. There is no private beach nearby as mentioned in the property information. The property/rooms are a little dated too, especially the bathrooms. We would still come back as we enjoyed the great ocean view and the quietness of the rooms.

The staff is really friendly and helpfull. The hotel is very clean. The pool area is beautiful and the view from our room and big terrace was incredible. The breakfast is delicious with a lot of different food and Greek specialities. You can walk in to the city in 10 min. In the reception they gave us good advice where to go. I would highly recommend the hotel :-)

The minute my husband and I entered the hotel, we were so happy. The people at the front desk were beyond kind and helpful. They answered any questions we had and were even available to help us call a cab whenever we needed to leave the hotel. Our room was especially amazing. It was so clean, comfortable, convenient in more ways than we were prepared for a hotel room, and quiet. We couldn't have asked for a better hotel to stay at while in Rethymno. We will stay here every time we return!

Amazing
One of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. Location, staff, view were all amazing.
The only thing about the town Ethymno I would say is that it has a lot to offer but if you want to go to south or some of the other places that are renowned , they are usually on the other side of Chania and since this hotel is itself about one hour away from Chania it makes the trip longer. However the scenary as you drive is amazing so well worth it
