9.6 Excellent
Pros: Great central location with supermarket and restaurants next door. Modern, well-equipped rooms. Friendly and helpful staff. Best part was the breakfast, it had everything you might possibly want, and then some!
Cons: Balcony not that great but not necessary either.
7.9 Good
Pros: The breakfast was very good, good coffee and self serve cappuccino, various warm and cold items. The room has nice comfy beds, simple lines and decor, big bright balcony, and clean spacious bath elements, useful furniture. Nice little cookie treats awaited in the room. Cleaning ladies helped extra with the soap dispenser. It has valet parking included right next door. It is close to everything. Bartender cheerfully helped me with a nice tea outside her normal responsibilities, front desk was kind, valet parking was efficient. Note to getting to the parking: there is just one direction in to the parking/hotel from the port. Don't blink or you'll miss it, and rehearse it before you get into town because google maps are choking in the area. We learned this the hard way. : D
Cons: There is no door to the bathroom sink and shower, which is just a bad idea. There is no reason for that architecturally - there is a perfect place to put a sliding or opening door, but they just didn't want to do it. So if you come with a third wheel, good luck with privacy. There isn't sufficient furniture on the large nice balcony. No drying rack either, which is a bummer.. Divisors between suites are glass and so late night noise from other rooms can carry too much. Hallways are dark, staircases a bit unnerving. (Elevators good.) No pool / sunny bright gathering place. But it is an urban hotel.
8.3 Excellent
Pros: location right beside the harbor. Price is reasonable. Breakfast is ok as business type. The steakhouse restaurant at downstairs is very good.
Cons: No.

10.0 Excellent
Pros: The location was marvellous for walking to the important attractions. The staff couldn’t be more helpful. Our room was huge, with a double basin bathroom and a delightful shady terrace. The room and bathroom were spotlessly clean (and I am fussy).
Cons: The outside street was very narrow - I wouldn’t try driving there. When the wind blows in a particular direction the jets fly overhead - however, that must affect all of the old city. I didn’t notice the planes late at night or early in the morning.

10.0 Excellent
Pros: Decent room size We’ve traveled with a 2 year old boy and we received a baby cot Excelent breakfast
4.6 Okay
Pros: Buffet for dinner and breakfast was great, staff very kind.
Cons: Because the hotel parking site was full, a staff member parked our car the evening we arrived. The next morning it turned out that he had parked it in front of the hotel loading dock and the car had been damaged by someone trying to get past. It showed a big dent and scratches exactly on the spot (rear right) where a trolly would pass from the road to the sidewalk. A mere passer-by on the sidewalk could not have caused such damage. Yet the hotel refused to take any responsibility. We spent several very unpleasant hours talking to managers through the phone and ended up paying for the damages ourselves. We were only lucky that the friendly car rental service (Kydon) showed some understanding and did not charge the full amount. One would expect more from a hotel in this class.

10.0 Excellent
Pros: Amazing stay in this beach hotel. It exceeded our expectations. At check-in we were upgraded to one of beachfront bungalows. Also, we got free dinner at hotel's a la carte restaurant as well as 15 min free massage each of us. They knew about our late arrival, so at the room we had some fresh food to eat. We booked all inclusive which was perfect. We liked the fact that during the day at the pool bar (10am-6pm), beside drinks and coffee, there is always fresh fruit and some snacks and deserts in case you want to grab something between meals. Also, at the pool bar you can have lunch, of course basic courses, but very nice, so basically you can have lunch in a bathing suit in case you are to lazy to go to the restaurant :) The food at the restaurant was fine and well presented, a lot of fresh cuisine. At the main building in front of the restaurant there is a bar (6pm-midnight), they make very good cocktails, very kind bar tenders. You can enjoy drink anywhere you want. All staff was amazing, extremely friendly and happy to help. A lot animation activities aqua gym, aqua dance, pilates, live music, table tennis competition, 1 hour walk into the village, etc. The bathroom and room was very clean. We slept very good, very quiet resort. We asked for less hard pillows and they immediately provided it. We rented a car through the hotel which was very simple. Ask a day before for a lunch bag to go if you are going to be away all day. We went to Elafonissi and Chania. Far away for one day excursion (total 440 km), but definitely was it worth it. The beach is sandy, not the best one, but it is ok, warm water despite the wind. Windy area so it is pleasant to stay in the sun. There are a lot of sunbeds an umbrellas everywhere. Clean beach towels every day. Great location, 10-15 minutes by car from the airport. Heraklion city as well. 3 min walk form hotel you will find a lot of shops. Thank you very much for amazing stay! We felt really good and relaxed.
Cons: Bed matrasses are hard. Dinner should be extended till 10 pm (now is from 7 to 9.15pm). Regarding the food, we did not like how they prepare meat, a lot of spices which we are not used of it.
8.3 Excellent
Pros: The staff, the location, the gardens.
Cons: The beds were very hard and uncomfortable.
7.5 Good
Pros: The food is very really good and we had every day New options in the menu. We booked a standard bangalow but when we arrived we were upgraded to a premium one, which was bigger and much nicer.
Cons: Most of the workers in the hotel were nice and ready to help, but some of them were very unfriendly to us before we even spoke to them! We had no idea why !
4.2 Okay
Pros: - Receptionists are friendly. - Beautiful view (the garden is nice). - The weather is really good (yes I know that it does not depend on the hotel).
Cons: - Poor choice of food (for example, no even peanut butter for breakfast or packaged yogurt). - That food you can find is not tasty (croissants smell yeast, meat is too fat, sausages are terrible). - Short lunch time. - The wine is worst I have ever tasted. It's impossible to describe. It tastes like ultra cheap wine + ashes. - WiFi is not available in room (the signal is too low) only outside of room. - Room shower without a curtain. - Shampoo and soap have not been renew. - It's a bit difficult to find sunbed on the beach because guests occupy them by towels. - The sea looks a bit dirty. - Mosquitoes.
10.0 Excellent
Pros: High class hotel! The food is varied, the place is clean, the cabins are nice between plants and flowers, a large pool and a few meters from the sea. A friendly crew and a real assistant we enjoyed every moment ... A little suggestion for improvement, we came from a country that people dont eat pork so maybe put some more dishes from beef..
9.6 Excellent
Pros: The staff were very polite and kind. The location was excellent. The beach was very easy to reach. Plenty of space for parking a car. The restaurant had a good choice of food each day. For a short stay this was ok, but for more than a week it would have felt repetitive.
Cons: A bottle of water in the room each day would have been appreciated.
7.5 Good
Pros: The staff was excellent, they were very helpful and friendly! Loved the fact that our bungalow was right on the beach. The bungalow was cleaned daily, incl. mopping, bathroom cleaning of sand etc.
Cons: The breakfast was poor quality, scrambled eggs seemed to be mixed in with something else to make more of them. The coffee was terrible and juices tasted like the cheap ones from the carton boxes you get for less than a euro. Wifi was also very very poor, we barely had any in our bungalow.

9.0 Excellent
Pros: Nice location near the beach. Hotel was clean. Room with sea view.
Cons: Food and Beverage is acceptable. Can be improved.
8.8 Excellent
Pros: Very pleasant beach front hotel with good breakfast, lunch and dinner buffet. Rooms were simple, clean and serviceable and staff was friendly and helpful. I would not hesitate to stay here again.
Cons: The onsite parking that is advertised is a public car park where survival of the fittest is the rule. The private car park holds 2-3 cars max. You might want to avoid room #103 as it is directly next to the kitchen and quite noisy until late night.
8.8 Excellent
Pros: In general everything was as expected. The stuff is very helpful and the facilities are very clean.
Cons: Without being annoying, our room was a bit loud because it was next to the staircase.
9.2 Excellent
Pros: Good food, friendly staff, lovely views.
Cons: Shower was broken.
10.0 Excellent
Pros: We had a fantastic stay on Crete. The hotel is small but very cozy. It has a direct access to the beach, which was convenient for us with the baby. The staff is amazing and very helpful and the food was prepared delicious
10.0 Excellent
Pros: Rooms were modern. Entertainment representative was very good. Greek food options at buffet were excellent. Location on beach with mountain views was stunning. Staff were very friendly and even before we arrived sorted our big family party accommodation out by email efficiently. Swimming pool and surrounding area kept crystal clean.
Cons: Area very much given to hotels, but we expected that and hired car from car rental nearby and toured Crete for one day to get flavour of island.
8.3 Excellent
Pros: Great price for the offer of all inclusive.
Cons: That everything felt a little bit more underrated as the stars given to this hotel. Despite a sign signalling that no sun beds are to be reserved ... nearly all were ahead of breakfast (despite only a couple of people using them). I think it's important to have hotel house rules but they should not just be window-dressing. Every guest ought to have a right to use all of the facilities. Reserving seats or sun beds is absolutely ridiculous and staff should (as the so-called rules by the poolside state) should remove the pegs that hold towels there. Or better still, remind guests on their arrival that reserving sun loungers/beds is against house rules. Certain cultures whether it be German or British have no right to impose such archaic traditions on any other holidaymakers.
10.0 Excellent
Pros: It's my first ever trip to exact same summer destination twice in a row. As before, it fully met my expectation. The place is close to airport & the city, yet the beach is long and relaxing enough if you walk a few minutes any direction. The hotel's most valuable asset are the people working there. The staff at the restaurant - those you meet most often - are always friendly, quick and always ready to help. The bar team also deserves a 5*. The family rooms we stayed in were clean and comfy. Everything required was there. Cleaning raised no issues. Liked the food - didn't miss any particular kind if food. Was never hungry :) Exept for rare peak days, there were always sunbeds at the beach, though it's hard to fined >1 spare sunbed by the pool past 10am. There's small private car park for your car. Staff speak English, German and some speak French as well. A special thank you voes to the manager - Nikoletta - who's been very helpful in making some non-trivial arrangements for my family members.
Cons: Sometimes I missed the pool after 6:30 when it gets closed.

8.3 Excellent
Pros: This is a lovely old hotel with the most helpful and gracious staff you could find. Anything big or little, they will help with which makes foreign travel so much nicer. It is older and there is some evidence of the number of people who have enjoyed it before. The location was close to the bus, the ferry and the airport which was very convenient, but also made it a bit noisy at times, however we got around the city mostly on foot from the hotel so it worked for us. Nikos was particularly helpful for us.

Even though we had a short time in Iraklio, Maria went out of her way to buy flowers at a shop nearby and provide a bottle of wine as well. Location was perfect as well for us since we had to catch the ferry the next morning.

Pros: Frienfly, helpful staff; good food.
10.0 Excellent
Pros: The staff especially at the front desk and in the special restaurants were consistently helpful and generous. The spa staff and treatments were great! The accessibility in the hotel was very good. There was a great variety of food at all meals in the hotel and during the day by the beach. Our children and grandchildren loved the play facilities.. slides, pools, beach.. The store and jewelry store had a wide selection for daily needs and souvenirs and cosmetics... The location was great as we were a short driving distance to Heraklion yet in a quiet area.
Cons: The landscape is marred by the huge chimneys of the electric plant.. The food in the dining room while plentiful and varied was not all that tasty.. especially at the meat dishes at dinner. The mattress was uncomfortable...
8.8 Excellent
Pros: Very good facilities - we enjoyed the pool and the beach access. The restaurants were also incredibly good and reasonably priced - the staff working at the Greek and Italian restaurants in particular were lovely.
Cons: I found that there were never enough people working at reception, which made it frustrating when we had to wait for over 20mins for a brief question. The staff in the breakfast area were also quite rude - they were more obsessed with clearing tables than actually noticing that we had left stuff at our table to go and get more food. We were not particularly impressed to come back to find another couple sitting there. We were also supposed to get a free 15min massage but were unable to do so as no one was there to actually help us book.

Pros: Almost everything! Especially the friendly helpful staff! Great options for kids- pools slides games beach.. lots of food options.. close to many places..

Pros: The place is very nice. It has everything you need for a good vacation: Sun, sea, amazing food, bar, garden. Very welcoming staff. The food is so great! The beds were comfortable. Overall we enjoyed our stay a lot.
Cons: A lot of families with kids there, so if you want a quiet and romantic time spend with your partner it is not quite a place for you in this occasion.
5.1 Okay
Pros: The food here was pretty good. The pool was nice and deep. Our room was huge.
Cons: We booked a day at the spa and were forced to cancel with plenty of notice. The spa clerk began berating us about how bad it is for them that we cancelled. She then proceeded to yell at us and accused us of not having enough money for the spa. (We had already paid...) I brought this matter to the front desk and they did not care. That is not the mentality of a 5 star hotel. Then again, I don’t believe that this is a true 5 star. I would say it rates at a solid 4 star. Most definitely wouldn’t recommend staying here due to the attitude of the staff.
10.0 Excellent
Pros: A very nice hotel located in the beautiful park of exitic trees, cery close to the beach, good and attentive personnel, excellent food. My thanks tho the personnel and management.
Cons: The only minus the sea was still cold, another minus, the beach is not sandy, in a meter after the water edge begins a rocky (although) flt surface. All the rest was good.

Pros: The staff were happy, smiling and willing to cater to any needs/requests. The food in the restaurants was impeccable, always fresh ingredients with a good selection of Greek and international food. The packed lunches were good too. Light, nothing fancy but quite adequate. The room was cleaned everyday with fresh bed linen and towels. The beach towel service was very handy and a special thank you to the two ladies, Valentina and Ansi, at the resort's spa where we enjoyed a full body scrub and hot oil massage, foot and neck complete relaxation massage and an amazing facial lifting with natural Cretan oils and creams at a very reasonable price. Minas, the main bar barman and Vlad were also fantastic and with all the people here still remembered from one day to the next what we usually ordered to drink and where we had said we were going the evening before. Overall a very welcome relaxing week. Absolute nothing to complain about.
Cons: Not the resort's fault, but we prefer a compact sandy access to the sea. The beach is sandy but there are stones to overcome when entering the sea.
6.3 Good
Pros: The food was OK
Cons: The night time entertainment was dreadful. The rooms were very basic with no pictures on the walls to break up the blandness.

Pros: Friendly staff.
Cons: Old tired furniture , every where looked as if it could do with a coat of paint, door to the balcony was missing parts of it. could not get wifi in the bedroom - had to go out on the balcony to get any reception, food was always only luke warm, afternoon tea was a few sliced cakes and a plate of biscuits, sitting area inside was like sitting in a doctors waiting room, no flowers or plants - everything seemed to be cut back .

There is no chance to have a quiet sleep since you have during the people people arriving or leaving the hotel and in the early morning like 7am you already can ear the cleaning lady! It's really noisy, I hated that. The breakfast is satisfactory but nothing compared to the other parts of the island. Heraklion, in general, is horrible as city.

9.2 Excellent
Pros: The location of the hotel is perfect, near the beach, supermarket, restaurants, souvenir shops, bus stop and few minutes by bus or taxi to the center of Heraklion. The staff is very helpful and kind. Adonis at the reception was very helpful and responsive to our requests and needs. He help us to book nice tours in Crete within a great tour operator Katrina. As well he help us to arrange the pick up and driving to the airport. Everything went smooth and nice. Francesca, the cleaning lady is a sweetheart, so kind and nice. The room was always clean with fresh bed linen and towels. Popi the lady in charge of breakfast was also very kind. In general we enjoy our staying in the hotel and had a super great time in Crete! We stayed for 10 days in the hotel and everyday was nice. The room was spacious, with AC, quiet with a big bed, a bit hard for my taste but comfy enough for a good sleep. Has a little kitchenet with a mini refrigerator.
Cons: I think that will be nice if the kitchenet in the bedroom can count with a coffeemaker, some dishes and cutlery, it only have glasses, cups, little dishes and teaspoons. But it is easy to solve if you request them to Adonis. The breakfast could have a little more variety, coffee was thin, and it will be nice with fresh fruit juice, instead of instant juice. But are things that can be improve. In general everything is fine and good.

Cons: No fitness center for exercise. There weren't a lot of choice for their breakfast. Can be noisy. My room had a noticeable sway for no apparent reason, possibly the foundation of the building was not stable.
9.6 Excellent

8.3 Excellent
