Rested on the island of Crete from May 15 to 24 at the Zantina Hotel. It was my fifth anniversary trip to the island. He has already become dear to me and managed to fall in love with himself for the rest of his life.

The region of Rethymnon where I stayed is in the western part of the island, greener and more blooming, especially during the May period. Intoxicating aromas permeate the air in the evenings, when you can enjoy them as you walk along the cobbled promenade to the sound of gently roaring waves. The pleasant music of the traditional lyre, complemented by Cretan tunes, comes from taverns and restaurants that hospitably open their doors to everyone.

The old town of Rethymno deserves special attention, where, walking along the narrow, beautiful streets, you will feel the color of the island.

Numerous shops with spices and olive oil, genuine leather products and miniature pots, plates, jugs and cups made of ceramic, varnished with cheerful colors, unique handmade decorations and much, much more, which will no doubt surprise you!

Thus, the heart of the Rethymno region was only a twenty minute walk from my hotel. Isn't it wonderful? In addition, Zantina Hotel is located right on the waterfront, and to feel the warm sand under your feet and plunge into the azure waters of the unruly Aegean Sea, you just need to cross a short road. Another bonus for the hotel! Of course, the caring attitude of the hotel owners, Maria and Kostas, captivates. Hotel Zantina is a family business, in which the owners put their whole soul, and every guest feels at home, thanks to their care and attention.

I had an amazing vacation, honestly!
A delicious breakfast of aromatic coffee, freshly baked cake, jam and Greek yogurt was waiting for me every morning, after which I knew that the day would go great.

A sea of ​ ​ emotions, memories and bright moments, captured forever in the photo and in my memory! Crete - the island that stays in the heart)
