We visited RG Village in August as a couple, and honestly… we were ENCHANTED! From the very first moment, we felt that this place has a unique, romantic aura that’s hard to find elsewhere. The hotel is surrounded by greenery, with peaceful corners and softly lit pathways that make you want to stroll hand-in-hand every evening. The overall atmosphere feels dreamy, almost magical, and it truly sweeps you away. The food was exceptional — each day brought a new, delicious experience. There were plenty of options, everything was fresh, and the quality was evident in every dish. Every meal felt like a small gastronomic ritual. The cocktails by the pools were absolutely wonderful: refreshing, well-balanced, and beautifully crafted, perfect for the warm August days. And of course, the roof garden was where we spent our most memorable evenings — with stunning views, lovely music, and a romantic ambiance that made every moment feel special. A special mention goes to the reception staff. They welcomed us with genuine warmth, a big smile, and a sincere willingness to help. Their kindness and attentive service contributed enormously to the hotel’s romantic atmosphere and made us feel at home right away. Overall, RG Village is an ideal destination for couples: romantic, peaceful, surrounded by beautiful nature, with excellent food, fantastic drinks, and staff who truly love what they do. We highly recommend it! It was an experience we will remember for a long time — and we will definitely return!

For a couple stay in August: Our August stay at the Rimondi Grand Resort was simply amazing. The outdoor setting was stunning, with lush gardens and breathtaking views — perfect for romantic evenings. We especially loved dining outdoors; the food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was lively yet still relaxing, ideal for couples looking to combine comfort, great cuisine, and summer vibes. We would definitely return!

We’ve stopped here twice and really enjoyed both times. If you want a quiet and relaxing place away from the city, this is definitely it. I will admit that it’s not for everyone (like a party kind of place) but if you are seeking the above, it’s hard to be disappointed. The location is a bit of a catch-22. On the one hand yes you are a bit far out which makes venturing out a little tricky (though very doable). However the advantage is that it’s quiet. The rooms were clean both times and the house keeping service (which you have to book online when you want a clean done) was always thorough and quality. The food seems to be a bone of contention but honestly we never had trouble. It does revolve around the same sort of thing each day but there’s always variety to be had and in the main the food is nice. The pools are also great - they are cold, yes, but when you’re in the sun all day they’re a welcome relief when you get in. It is also worth remembering that 5 stars in the hotel world means its to do with the level of service the hotel can offer (like a spa, dry cleaning etc). The more services, the higher the stars. It’s a sprawling place and there is loads here. My only critic is that what they offer should be signposted more.

Myself, my husband and two little girls aged 4 and 7 have just finished our week here end of October , and think it’s been absolutely lovely. Upgraded to a pool room and got a villa type room over two floors, very spacious which was nice when you have little ones. Also kids pool and playroom which the girls had to themselves, whilst we sunbathed next to them on the super comfy padded loungers! Lovely big pool areas, everything was clean, food was samey agree with but very nice. Lovely salads, hot veggie food, gyros, lots of meat and choice for little ones :) thought it was great that they put on a shuttle to the beach and to the Rethymno town (15 mins) which made access to get out and about super easy and didn’t matter that you were up in the hills a little bit. Go to paraplous restaurant on the beach for sunset dinner, stunning 👌🏼 Beautiful views in the hotel was lovely and calm because it was end of season, absolute bliss tbh. I’d say it’s a 4 star for sure but not a 5. Not much in the way of entertainment just a couple of nights Greek dancing. No idea how they cope in that canteen area in August! Overall I’m giving this a 8/10, thought the staff were lovely and friendly, attentive to the kids, lovely hotel overall and we really enjoyed our relaxed stay!

I stayed at this hotel with my friends and had an amazing experience! Everything about my stay was enjoyable, from the warm greek welcome to the great facilities. Friendly Atmosphere & Excellent Service From the moment I arrived, I felt welcome. The staff were incredibly friendly, always smiling, and ready to help with anything. Whether it was giving recommendations or making sure guests were comfortable, they truly went above and beyond. Spacious & Clean Rooms The rooms were very spacious, well-decorated, and spotless. The bed was comfortable, and all the amenities were provided to make my stay relaxing. Housekeeping did a fantastic job of keeping everything fresh and tidy every day. Beautiful & Well-Maintained Pools One of the highlights of my stay was the pool area. The pools were large, clean, and well-maintained. There were plenty of sunbeds, so I never had to worry about finding a place to relax. The entire area was peaceful and perfect for unwinding. Delicious Food & Great Variety The food at the hotel was delicious! The buffet had a wide selection of dishes, and everything tasted fresh. There were also à la carte restaurant options, which made dining even more enjoyable. Great Location & Stunning Views The hotel was in a perfect location, just a short walk from the beach. I loved watching the beautiful sunsets in the evening. The surrounding area was also great for exploring, with shops and cafes nearby. Overall Experience This was a fantastic stay, and I would definitely visit again. The combination of excellent service, clean and spacious rooms, beautiful pools, and great food made this trip unforgettable. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable holiday! Also the island of crete is truly beautiful. Take a tour!! 💙
