RCI sent ne an email the week before our stay to advise me that they had changed the accomodation because the RCI silver crown one I had booked was closed for the winter. Leoniki is not of the same standard a I was expecting to be disappointed. Arriving at 11pm was not an issue and the staff were very welcoming.... More

This was my second stay @ The Leoniki and nothing had changed since I stayed in 2006. The rooms/units are a good size but lacking in some items - wine glasses, mugs, welcome pack, comfy beds and English speaking entertainment tv channels (CNN and BBC world news only). On the up side, our room was cleaned daily and after 11am.... More

We stayed at the Leoniki Residence for a week at the end of September/beginning of October 2012. It was our first visit to Crete. We checked in around 1130 at night, the receptionist was helpful and friendly and took us to our unit to show us around. We stayed in a 1 bedroomed unit, number 182, up on the 3rd... More

1st time to Crete, from passport control,taxi and hotel the friendliest reception we have ever had. The Leoniki Residence is a lovely resort and very clean. The apartments were fit for purpose although the kitchenet did look a little tired. The hotel staff could not have done any more to make us welcome and on the couple of occassions we... More

I'll start with the good: nice pool, a couple of really nice people working there, good location away from the traffic madness that is Rethymnon and easy access to the main highway for exploring the rest of the island. Checkin and checkout were painless and rapid, and a couple of the people on the front desk were good for directions... More

My husband and I came here for the first week of our honeymoon this past September. Overall we had a nice stay. The staff were nice and the room was clean and tidy. There were a few pros and cons (below) but overall, we would stay here again. Cons: We were greeted as soon as we entered and were happy... More

My wife and I visited Crete for the first time and the Leoniki Residence was the available option through our Club La Costa membership. The resort carries an RCI Silver Crown rating but I'd suggest that their overdue refurbishment would see that rating slip if assessed now. The bed was rock hard, even after putting all 3 blankets under the... More

We can't quite recall how many times we have been to Leoniki, but reckon that on average it's been once every couple of years since about 1992. That must tell you something. Regarding the resort being "dated and tired", we do agree to some extent with what GilbertSwansea says, but were assured by the Aegean Blue liaison rep that refurbishment... More

Stayed in the Leoniki Residence in a one bedroomed apartment in July 12. The apartment was very spacious and amble room for four adults. Generally the room was sufficient for a 2 week stay but everything is well past its use by date and needs modernising/updating now and an important point was that the beds were extremely hard (wife suffered...
