I had a relaxing stay at Pearl Beach, where the friendly staff and great dining options stood out. The hotel is ideally located right across from the beach, although I found the pool closing at 7 PM a bit early for evening swims. Rooms were spacious and well-maintained, but some small issues like limited outlets and missing water during dinner service could be improved.

I had a mixed experience at Pearl Beach in Rethymno. The location is fantastic, right on the beach, and the food was excellent with a wide variety to choose from. However, some aspects of the stay were disappointing, like the worn-out beds and poorly designed shower facilities. Overall, it felt like a 4-star experience was not fully realized.
