THE HOTEL
Seafront family-friendly hotel in Rethymno
If you think that beach life is best when paired with indulgent pampering and a heartfelt welcome, then this is the place for you. With a prime seafront location in the heart of the Cretan Riviera, this family hotel in Rethymnon sets the bar high for your next holiday on Greece’s largest – and arguably most famous – island.


Premium Location
Enjoy the soothing sea or garden views from the balcony of your sleek room, where the cleverly placed details bring the simple decor to life; or walk just a couple of meters to feel the sand between your toes. Relax by the eye-popping pool that’s a pebble’s throw from the beach; or hit the hotel spa with a hammam, sauna, massage room and gym. Find your balance with a yoga session by the Aegean’s waters; or grab a gratis bike to explore the area’s iconic sights, which include an imposing Venetian castle, at your pace. Exercise is an especially good idea here, as the Utopia, Iperion’s sea-gazing restaurant features an array of mouthwatering delicacies for breakfast, lunch and dinner. There is also a beach bar on-site – just the spot to spend memory-making moments with inspired cocktails and your favourite people.
With laid-back vibes and a genuinely cordial atmosphere, the Iperion is the perfect relaxing beach retreat for families looking to spend some quality time together, couples on a romantic gateway, or friends experiencing new adventures together.

HOSPITALITY
Experience Crete’s legendary hospitality
This was our aim from the onset. Named after the mythological father of the sun and the moon, the Iperion seafront hotel in Rethymno was inaugurated in 1993 with a view to honouring Crete’s longstanding tradition of hospitality: Zeus, the patron of strangers, was born on this island after all and his legendary legacy mandates that guests must be treated as friends. A lot of things have changed since the hotel’s opening – with a range of well-planned renovations and additions we strive to ensure that the Iperion always keeps up with the spirit of the times – but one thing has remained the same. Generosity, kindness, honest caring for every guest’s individual needs and a desire to showcase Crete’s known and unknown wonders, continue to inform our thoughtful mix of our services and amenities – all designed to please and appease in equal measure.
This is a place where you’ll make yourselves right at home; and where you’ll soon come to feel like part of our extended family. Each year we are committed to offering our guests an experience they’ll cherish forever; making our hotel a destination that you will want to return to again and again.
