If you select a holiday at Hotel Minos Mare in the resort of Rethymnon you will certainly have numerous options when it comes to sightseeing if you like to get around. The greek island of Crete is huge, so it is almost impossible to see the whole island in a single holiday. The island of Crete offers everything from stunning beaches to stoney coves and spectacular cliffs and according to greek mythology Crete was also the home of the Minotaur!. Crete is literally soaked in sun and littered with ancient ruins, small villages, places to party and romantic spots like Aghios Nikolaos and Elounda. The island of Crete was the focal point of the Minoan civilisation dating back over 4600 years. On the inland fringe of Iraklion you can find the ruins of the ancient Minoan palace of Knossos. The Minoan city of Phaestos can be visited a few miles inland from Matala on the south coast. The wild and rugged Samaria Gorge, situated on the western side of Crete, is very famous for walking, though be warned that the Samaria Gorge offers a sturdy trek from the hills to the sea. The long, long summers in Rethymnon also promises plenty of sunshine whenever you can escape the UK for a holiday at Hotel Minos Mare.
