Rimondi Boutique Hotel

The blue-tiled pool sits at the center of everything, ringed by a plant-filled courtyard where guests drift between leisurely meals and leisurely nothing. This all-suite boutique hotel in Rethymno keeps its palette to whitewashed stone and white-on-white interiors, letting Aegean light do the decorating. Beyond the walls, the old town's medieval streets wind past a harbor full of sailboats and a stone lighthouse that looks painted there.
