Rethymno Youth Hostel in Rethymno … My sister and I stayed at the youth hostel in Rethymno for two weeks. When we arrived, we had no intention of staying for more than a couple of days, but once we met the staff and experienced the comfort of the youth hostel, we decided to stay longer. The hostel itself was extremely well maintained, with comfortable beds (that don't creak when you move!), a great deck, nice lounge area and the owner and staff were very welcoming. The hostel is close to the beach, restaurants, shops and the harbor, where you catch the ferry. The atmosphere at the hostel is fantastic, you can be sure that you will have a great time. This is by far the best hostel I stayed at on my three-month excursion.
Youth Hostel Plakias in Plakias … i was there in the summer and it was a lot of fun. crete is incredible and plakias is a beautiful little town. you feel safe there, they make it very comfortable. the staff was super cool and glad to be there. it is cleaned by people who are staying there so they do a really good job. they cook you eggs for breakfast how you like them. it's almost cultish how people feel about that place. there is a certain magic that seems to attract good people. the river hike is talked up a bit. great place though. the food in crete is the best in greece. also there seems to be more girls than guys at all times which keeps it mellow. thanks chris, and the man in black on the hill, i had a great time.
Rethymno Youth Hostel in Rethymno … I stayed here in June 2005 and had a great time. The city is beautiful, and the hostel is top-notch and welcoming. Good facilities, lots of character, and many friendly travelers to meet.
Youth Hostel Plakias in Plakias … This is the place you went travelling to be. Its the place you hoped you would find when you set off. If you enjoy living then this is the life you had hoped for. Go -- visit. Take a deep breathe and feel how good your life can be. Let the beauty of existence seep into your soul. Let the life you would love, love you. I am a repeat offender at this hostel, and in Plakias.
Youth Hostel Plakias in Plakias … I thought the hostel was the best that I have ever been to.
Youth Hostel Plakias in Plakias … This is one of the best hostels I've been to in many years of traveling. Many people who are traveling there have been going there year after year, and for good reason. Plakias is a top-notch hiking spot, with mountains, caves, and waterfalls. You can get a guidebook of local hiking spots at the store in town. There are good places to go snorkeling (it's on Crete's southern coast), and the restaurants are cheap and have good food. The hostel is a great place to sit under a tree to read a book, or to meet and talk with other travelers. There are many different beaches to visit. I highly recommend it.
Rethymno Youth Hostel in Rethymno … Rooms dorm-style like most hostels. Social area provided indoors and outdoors. Internet, cooking, bar. Hospitality unmatched.
Youth Hostel Plakias in Plakias … I stayed at this hostel about four years ago. It was a welcomed retreat after the incredibly horrible hostel I stayed in in Rethymno. The owner was great, the facilities were clean, and the guests were very interesting and friendly. The cheap breakfast was welcomed also. This is the first place where I would stay if I found myself in Plakias again. As a matter of fact I want to go back to Crete just to stay here!
Youth Hostel Plakias in Plakias … The hostel is really laid back, nice landscaping, great atmosphere, and good management. Attracts lots of solo travellers. I first went for three days and stayed three weeks, and have been back several times since. Best hostel i've ever stayed in. you will love it.
Youth Hostel Plakias in Plakias … I loved this place, it was full of tranquility and fun. The people there are all laid back — everyone seemed so nice. The beds were open to the nice breeze. Every night there was music, games, and of course drinking. I will come to this hostel again.
Rethymno Youth Hostel in Rethymno … I arrived there for two nights and stayed for seven. Ivan, our serbian host, is a great guy. Great place to meet other single travelers, a kitchen to use, and a good location make this one of the best. Very simple, but cheap.
Youth Hostel Plakias in Plakias … I was there in September 2004. I think the description given by the owner is accurate. The hostel is very nice. The staff were okay. As compared to other hostels I've been to, there were not many solo travelers, but more groups staying there for one or several weeks.
