Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were of a very high standard, overlooking the pools and equipped with all amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The service was exceptional with staff always ready to assist. The location was picturesque, right by the beautiful beach. The dining experience was consistently excellent. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay truly enjoyable.
I enjoyed my stay at the hotel overall. The location was fantastic, with easy access to the beach and close proximity to Chania town. The rooms were not completely soundproof and the standard didn't quite meet a 5-star rating, but we managed to switch to a room with a private pool that was lovely until early afternoon, allowing us to take full advantage of the lounge once our child was asleep.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped, making it a perfect place even if I had lost my luggage. The view from the room was breathtaking. However, the noise from the touristic area could be a drawback, but the overall experience was fantastic.
The hotel offers modern and well-furnished rooms with the unexpected downside of overlooking electricity pylons and rubbish bins. The staff, led by Vassilis, make this a perfect choice for a restful vacation. The location is convenient but noisy due to its touristic area setting. The dining experience is delightful with quality Cretan cuisine. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few minor inconveniences.
