  Good Location and Staff, Some Improvements Needed

  10 Jun 2025

  The service and the location were both very good, and the staff was attentive. However, the premises could benefit from some maintenance and a deeper cleaning. Our room’s door didn’t close properly, which unfortunately let in quite a few mosquitoes at night. Some areas of the room and the shower needed small repairs, and we couldn’t fully close the curtains, which made it hard to get a good night’s sleep due to the outside light. The towels were more grayish than white, and we did notice a few small bugs around the room. The swimming pool also seemed like it could have been better maintained. Wi-Fi is only available in the common areas, but the staff kindly provided us with a router for the room, which worked fairly well. Webadmin HotelBrain, Owner at Petradi Beach Lounge Hotel, responded to this review Dear Beatriz, Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback.

  Lovely Hotel

  12 Oct 2024

  We have just come back from our amazing stay in this hotel. The location is perfect if you are happy to have a 20 minute stroll into the main town, or even get a taxi (7/8 euros). The staff at the hotel were extremely friendly and welcoming (we didn't get the name of the young girl on the desk but she was lovely). The rooms are quite basic but for a week stay they were perfect if you are not in your room too much. As we went in October the pool area was quiet and was perfect for relaxing in the day. The breakfast is just a standard European breakfast, perfect for just grabbing a bite to eat in the morning. The sea is right on the doorstep. The pool area has a snack bar (salads, pizzas, gyros) and was really high quality food. There are also amazing restaurants surrounding the hotel - which were amazing (Taverna Galera, Prima Plora and Karnagio). Would definitely recommend this hotel for a short break. For the price, we were so so impressed.

  Quite basic and needs improvements but great views!

  01 Oct 2024

  Overall it was good value for money and beautiful views from the balcony. Staff were welcoming. The room had good interior decor however we felt there needed to be further renovations to the hotel, the bathroom particularly needed work as we had wires out of the wall and a loose toilet . It was quite noisy in the room from the main road traffic but manageable. The pool side area was very nice with great views. The beach was a bit unclean with cigarette ends etc but cannot always be helped I know. The cold breakfast was ok but the cooked produce could be improved as appeared dried out and unappetising. There are a few lovely local restaurants if don’t want to walk 20 minutes into Rethymno. It was good for a one night stay.

  Great hotel

  16 Sept 2024

  What a fabulous hotel, so friendly and laid back. Amazing place for couples, Personally I would not come with a family as not much for kids around. Great restaurants close by and a superb coffee shop a few doors down. Best relaxing week we have ever had. We had a duplex room with sea views.
