We love Greece. We love Crete. We come back here year after year. And it has become a second home for us. Do you know why? The people here are very friendly and hospitable. Rest here is measured, calm.
We rested at the end of May, at this time there are not so many tourists on the island, the grasses have not yet had time to burn out in the sun, and the water in the sea is a little cool and refreshing. This time we chose the Grecotel Plaza Spa, a hotel a couple of kilometers from the old town of Rethymnon. Before this city, we walked along the embankment, more often we walked in the morning or in the evening, when it was not so hot.
The sea is across the road from the hotel, but in principle the road does not interfere. The main thing is to look around when you cross it. The food at the hotel is delicious, a lot of fruits, vegetables, fish and meat dishes. This time we almost did not go on excursions. Since the island of Crete has already been studied quite well. We only took advantage of a profitable and very interesting offer to fly to the island of Santorini by plane. A couple of years ago we sailed on a ship, it turned out to be very difficult and long to sail, and we spent only 4 hours on the island itself. The air excursion allowed us to spend 10 hours on the island! We saw much more, heard more. And the price difference is ridiculous.

We rented a car from our hotel guide Anastasia for one more day and went for a ride in the bays.
Rested both body and soul. We are currently planning a trip for the end of the summer. Thank you all for helping us organize!
