Mixed
Good location outside of town. Parking in gravel lot down the street not bad. Short walk and a bit dangerous for unloading luggage in front of hotel in traffic. Owner very nice and very helpful with suggestions of what to do. Other staff helpful in suggesting restaurants within walking distance. Breakfast was good and plentiful. Beach is rocky, but water refreshing. Bed linens could use updating and futon in our room needed to be replaced, but overall a descent place to stay for the price.

We loved being right on the beach, and the area wasn’t busy which was lovely. At night, the noise levels were very high as the road is right there and it sounded like our windows were open when they would drive past. However, the staff were friendly and helped us call a taxi in the morning to catch our ferry.

Only a 15 minute walk to the heart of Old Town, this delightful hotel is situated right on a marvelous long sandy beach, perfect for swimming and sunbathing. The patroness, Eva, and her staff are courteous and enthusiastic to please. Delicious breakfast and appetizers are served daily.

Lovely hotel - recommended
Just back from Filoxenia. A lovely hotel that I am missing already. It has everything one could want. Its right on the beach and all comforts are provided. Our duplex room was great too. Snacks and cocktails are tasty and available. Don't miss the milkshakes! Eva was lovely and helped us plan our trip. Hector the dog kept an eye on things. Only negative and rather odd point was that the cleaning lady made our beds just once in 4 days. Soon sorted out once we mentioned it to Eva.

Nice hotel on the beach
The hotel is small and very welcoming. All the rooms face on the beach, with balconies, and there is a lovely view of the Venetian fortress about 2 km away. The room furnishings are simple but modern and clean. The breakfast was excellent, with a great variety of food, some cooked in house. There is a small pool, and parking for about 4 cars next door. If your car is a large one, however, you will find the entrance a tight fit. There are some very nice restaurants within a short walk.

Good room, nice pools, close to beach
Had a pleasant stay until we tried to get out of the steep driveway and scraped the edge of a truck while trying to avoid being hit by another car. Eva was very helpful and assisted us dealing with the car rental company and insurance representative.

Very friendly family-run hotel
This small family-run hotel was on the beachfront on the quieter side of town. It was just a short walk to the Old Town. The room was nice and airy with a balcony overlooking the sea. There is a terraced area adjoining the beach with plenty of sunbeds / seating. Eva, the manager, was very friendly and helpful. If you're looking for something more secluded than the more crowded long beach and row of hotels this may well suit you.

Perfect and relaxing
This hotel is wonderful, positioned right on the beach with lovely views plus a good walk into the old town. The size of the hotel means you can enjoy the weather and culture without the noise and business. Eva is a wonderful host and would recommend anyone to follow her recommendations for dinner or places to visit. The rooms have plenty of room and are cleaned daily, breakfasts are lovely with always something different to try and her little dogs adds lots of character. Only negative would be the big slope into the car park which made for an interesting start to the first journey we did but this is the only flaw (and absolutely a liveable one) in otherwise a perfect stay.

Best of the best!!!
Wonderful service, went above and beyond. Unique accommodation, great refreshing pool (saltwater) great sunbeds. Breakfast was very enjoyable!!! The beach was great for swimming, lovely hotel away from the busy central city area, but a short walk to the historic area of Rethymon. We would love to go back and take our children with us and stay at Filoxena!!! Perfect Service!!

Wonderful stay
We had a brilliant time at Filoxenia. Eva looked after us so well. Nothing was too much trouble and we had a really relaxing time. The breakfast was delicious and the very civilised time of being served until 11 was much appreciated! we had a seaview from our room with a fantastic view of the bay of and the old town. The patio and beach were like a peaceful oasis and the location of the hotel was perfect. It was a 20 min walk into Rethymno which suited us fine. All in all we had a perfect holiday in our little taste of paradise. Thank you so much Eva and Nikos for providing us English ladies with such wonderful memories!

Amazing stay
Stayed for 4 night at Filoxenia Beach. Absolutely lovely rooms with a fabulous sea view and for this price unbeatable. Breakfasts is definitely good and the hotel is like 20min to the old town of Rethymnon. If you have a rental car, even better as parking space is available and it is close to the motorway. The family who is running the hotel is just fabulous; they will take care of you and assistant as much as they can.

Great value-for-money hotel with superb sea views
This is a great and modern hotel with fantastic views of the Rethymno castle. It has a cosy swimming pool, comfortable rooms, and superb spots to enjoy the sea views and grab a snack. It's directly on the beach too, and has parking spots for 4 cars. The breakfast buffet is excellent. The hotel is run by a family, and they are very involved in the day-to-day business, greeting the guests and so on. The only slight drawback is that some rooms on the ground floor are close to the road, which is bustling with activity and tends to be a bit noisy. You can always ask for an interior room though. They hotel is good value for money, and I highly recommend it.

Petite structure pleine de charme où le client se sent comme a la maison. Compétent et disponible le personnel (Eva et Johanna) se met en 4 pour repondre à toutes vos demandes avec sourires et bienveillance. On se sent plus comme un hote que comme client. Félicitations aux personnes de l entretien et plus particulièrement à la cuisiniere qui tous les matins nous regale de ses pâtisseries maison. Situé à 2 km de Rethymnon et pres de tres bons restaurants, les pieds dans l eau c est un super endroit pour des vaca'ces detentes. On recommande .

Pieni Hotelli meren rannalla
Hotelli merenrannalla ja kaikista huoneista on upea merinäköala. Pieni perheomisteinen hotelli jossa 10 huonetta. Eva omistaja oli todella ystävällinen ja avulias❤️. Huomioitavaa vaikka hotelli on merenrannalla se sijaitsee todella vilkkaan tienvarrella joka johtaa keskustaan. Kiva matka vanhaan kaupunkiin eli käveltävissä. Auton sai parkkiin n.200n hotellista olevalle yleiselle parkkipaikalle. Aamiainen oli Ok. Hinta/laatusuhde Ok. Voisimme mennä uudestaan. Jos et etsi luksusta, suosittelen.

Décevant
Petit hotel situé sur une plage de galets, la plage de sable et les boutiques sont de l'autre cote de la ville. Personnel sympatique, chambre correcte bien qu'au même tarif on puisse trouver un peu plus grand. Gros point noir la salle de bain tellement petite qu'un lave main fait office de lavabo, qu'il est difficile de se pencher dans la douche tellement elle est etroite, le gel gel est a l'exterieur au dessus des WC puisque la douche est trop petite pour qu'il y soit a l'interieur. Après etre douche en faisant attention toute la salle de bain est inondé puisqu'il n'y a pas de porte /rideau de douche (trop exiguë). La terrasse est aussi minuscule l'etendoir est au dessus du moteur de clim donc juste pour mettre maillots, chaussettes sinon la serviette frotte sur le moteur, un petite table et 2 chaises ou il faut ne plus bouger une fois installé. Le parking a 300 mette est en fait un terrain vague.
