Nefeli Hotel

Very good hotel near the beach. New renovation rooms, well furnished and clean. The food was amazing - we had breakfast and dinner. There is a lot of parking space behind the hotel. The animation is good. There is a supermarket next to the hotel if you need something to buy.

If you'd rather avoid vast, bustling hotel complexes then Nefeli is perfect for you. The layout is similar to a Cretian village, creating a private and personal feel. On arrival we were given the opportunity to view two rooms with the possibility of upgrading to a superior room for forty euros each. We took this option simply because the superior room had more modern facilities and the decor was more to our taste. All of the staff at Nefeli will go out of the their way to assist you and greet you with a friendly smile. We would particularly like to thank the reception staff for giving us helpful information on travelling into Rethymnon and making us feel so welcome and valued. On check out we were given a beautiful fridge magnet and box of soaps as momentos of our stay. The food and cocktails at Nefeli are beautiful, there is clear attention to detail and flavour and we enjoyed making our way through the cocktail menu! We'd particularly like to give a mention to Niki, a key member of the bar staff. Even though she was extremely busy, at times the only waitress taking orders, she always had time for a chat with us and would advise us on the best cocktails to order. Niki, we'll miss you! x Overall, we cannot recommend Nefeli enough. The only issues as such were the size of the pool and the amount of sunbeds, though this was not a problem as the beach was only a short walk away, as was Baja Beach Club. We'd certainly like to return to Nefeli one day. Amy and Kev, Middlesbrough, UK.

Difficulty in offloading luggage as the hotel is on a main road. Parking area is round the back of the hotel and a bit complicated to find. The first room we were shown to was down a dark corridor. I had to use the light on my mobile phone to find the door lock It seemed the corridor light only came on at night. This was not acceptable so we returned to reception and were offered a superior room at an extra cost which we accepted. The room (195) was modern, brighter and nicely furnished although lacking in cupboard space, The following day we received a bottle of wine and a large bowl of fruit in the room which we thought was a very nice gesture. The restaurant was busy. Staff were well turned out and very helpful. The food display was excellent and very Club Med, Plenty of choice and very tasty. Obviously hotel popular with German visitors, Nice pool area. When we came to leave the receptionist gave my wife a very nice farewell gift Enjoyable stay
