Hotels in Rethymno, Greece

Rethymno sits on Crete's northern coast, boasting a mix of Venetian and Ottoman architecture and a long sandy beach. Summers are hot and dry (around 86°F / 30°C), perfect for swimming at the Plakias beach or stand-up paddleboarding in the Libyan Sea; winters are mild (about 55°F / 13°C), so you can explore the Fortezza fortress and the old town's 16th-century loggia without crowds.
