The location is amazing, immediately on top of the beach. The staff was really friendly and also understanding and helped with any issues. Breakfast was great. Common grounds were all really good (pool, breakfast/lunch/dinner hall, pool bar, etc)

The room was a bit dated. Also a lot of light came in through the front door because of the emergency light outside. The water exit in the bathroom was broken and emptying of the bath was therefore really slow. However really great from the staff who immediately acted on both issues as soon as we notified them.

The property has 2 pools with a good range of depth (from 60cm to over 2m) and even though the schedule of the pool was from 10:00 to 18:00 you could enter the pool outside this hours. We also liked that there was a children playground, which was extensively used by our kid in the morning and evening. Its location is near the restaurant which allowed us to oversee the kid while finishing the meal. The sunbeds on the grass are free of charge and beach is very close. The hotel has a big parking, we didn’t need it but it is useful to know that you have parking available. The restaurant has multiple dishes to choose from. In some days we opted for all meals, but in others we wanted to try the restaurants in the area, which are good also. We had the breakfast included and there is a good variety of food, we liked the “cretan corner”.

The first thing that I noticed was the wardrobe which is only one and has only hangers, i had to manage the clothes of 4 people for 10 days using only one shelf. The second thing that I disliked was that even if the sheets were changed regularly , every time there was a stain or two on the new sheet. Also the mattress had multiple stains and it was covered with a topper. By the end of our stay we didn’t get daily cleaning service. Another thing that bothered us was the ants which were the “queens” of the resort, you cand find them everywhere. I have no problem with some insects but when they enter in the kitchen and run over all the glassware it is not pleasant.

Excellent breakfast with great variety of delicious goods including fresh vegetables and local products ! Very clean ! Very friendly staff always there to help !very beautiful pools and gardens to walk by and relax ! Very nice overall!

The inside of the rooms is a bit more traditional than the outside…We had booked a double bed, though we had a double bed with two separate mattresses which was a bit inconvenient. Plus the room was quite big but with only one ac which was unable to cool the whole place.. everything else was fine!

Great position: on the beach, next to bus stop, Lidl, restaurants Facilities: a variety of activities within the resort like pools, playground and in the nearby.

The food: we had only breakfast, the same everyday. Good coffee allthough, available at breakfast. No coffee in the room, just the machine. No minibar, the prices at the bar are quite high. The towels need to be replaced, they are verry used and so it is the landry. The furniture needs refurbishment.

We loved absolutely everything. Family room has lots of space, resort is beatiful, pools are big, lots of sunbeds, lovely beach, food is superb! Lots of choiches and great variety for vegetarians. Crew is really attending and friendly. Felt quite private and not crowded. Lidl is next door if you need something. Loved our stay and regret that we didn't prolong it.

If I have to say something then maybe room was bit outdated. But we weren't bothered by that. Village itself isn't very lively but Chania is close, just a 20min drive.

The hotel is practically placed on the sea -shore and very close to restaurants , supermarkets and the bus-station .It has 2 parkig -areas which for us were excellent because we rented a car. It has a huge ,beautiful and peaceful garden .The staff is friendly and helpful ,always smiling. A great variety of tasteful food at breakfast including traditional dishes .We had only 1 dinner there and it was good. Good restaurant service in a peaceful area near one of the pools and the beautiful garden . Although the place is 35 years -old, it looks new and very clean and is very quiet.

After 1 day we learned that we have to place daily on the exterior of the door the sign with " Make my room " in order to get the room cleaned and to receive toiletries ( being a large hotel ,they forgot to leave toiletries a few times but we received them immediately after asking at the reception-desk even late in the evening). Also, we found the bath-tube small and a little uncomfortable to use but we managed. They should also place a drier-stand on the balcony-it would be very useful.

Staff was nice and friendly especially reception staff, and they have upgraded our room for two nights to deluxe suite due to not being able to come on the day of booking so really nice gesture! Breakfast was really good, you were able to choose from lots of different meal options and every day was slightly different. Beach from the hotel was okay sandy/city beach. Proximity to nice beaches with car is really good as Falasarna is only 40 minutes away by car, Balos is also close if you want to find tours with ship etc.

Kalimera! The hotel is perfect for calm vacationing. The beach is big and spacious, without a lot of sun beds or people, the view from the beach is amazing, especially at sunset. There are a lot of comfort sun beds around the place, you can take it whenever you want and chill out in the shadows. The bar serves different drinks, snacks, pizza, fruits. There is mini market where you can buy everything without going into town. Chania is reachable by bus, which goes every 15min until night. Lidl is also across the road. The personnel is amazing, everyone is trying to help, they speak perfectly English and German. When eating in the hotel, there is a variety of choices, including some kretan local food. We were never hungry after meals:) The room was good, although the ceiling was not so soundproof, you can hear everyone doing their stuff above you. We had some problems with air condition, but stuff helped us on the same day. At the reception you can get any information about car renting, excursions etc. and they will definitely help you with your reservations. If there will be another journey to Crete, we are definitely going to choose this hotel again! Efharisto!

You can hear your neighbours above you in a room; should be prepared that shower utilities are only for the first day, then you have to buy them yourself, it’s not a problem.

Beautiful resort, landscaped and natural. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and the hotel had everything we wanted. We chose it particularly for the table tennis table; so good that it is outside, not in a basement room.

We were only bed and breakfast, preferring the freedom to eat out. we did try a couple of a la carte at lunchtimes but weren’t very impressed. Portions are way too big at the expense of quality.
