Got home today and had 2 fantastic weeks at the Princess Irini. Top Family and employees run their company with a lot of love! You immediately feel at ease and welcome. You can ask for anything and nothing is too much. Top location on the beach, with service, and the city is easy to walk, you don't feel like taking a taxi into town. Delicious eaten both lunch and dinner. Apartment clean and spacious enough, good bed, so slept well. Everything a person could wish for, so we will definitely be back next year!!!! Thank you dear people and see you next year.

Here you are not a number like in a hotel, but personal attention for all guests. Nice team who do everything in their power to make your stay unforgettable. Owner is Dutch. Clean and nicely furnished apartments and an extensive kitchen for a competitive price. It is therefore not surprising that almost all guests want to come back here! Ester & team thanks for an unforgettable holiday on Crete!

We stayed for a week at the Princess Irini hotel apartments and it was a wonderful time. The place is beautifully furnished, with amazing view and convenient location, and the most important with great, very welcoming and warm people, always smiling and eager to help. They serve great food in their own restaurant, with local and international dishes.

My girlfriend and I celebrated our 40th anniversary as friends in the last week of May with a holiday at the (small-scale) Princess Irini Sea Front Aparthotel.Esther and her husband and their staff are unsurpassed and the food they serve in their restaurant is delicious. You feel welcome and seen and everything has been thought of. So yes, feel free to book here and enjoy Crete.

I can only recommend this lovingly and tastefully restored small hotel to anyone who simply feels comfortable in rethymnon and wants to feel warmly cared for and be right by the sea. Dream rooms with pure romance - super good mattresses, beautiful bathroom, daily cleaning, a delicious breakfast, a chat with the boss, ester, round off this time of wellbeing. all rooms are very nice - our no. 203 even with 2 balconies and a fantastic view of the beach. between the hotel and the beach is a small street / promenade, but the windows don't let any loud in and air conditioning in every room. After assessing all the hotels in the vicinity of about 5km east and west of the old town, we found the best for ourselves - a pool is not important if the sea is right there! if rethymnon then only to the princess irini !! thank you ;-)) ester u your team!!!
