Tuomas May 26, 2025 12:08:30 AM
Summary: This hotel has a really good spa with gym, saunas and jacuzzi. Rooms are very modern, soacious and clean but the bed is extrmely hard. The buffet restaurant was more tyan enough for us for the weekend - they have extremely wide range of varieties on table and the selection changes day to day. But the staff was absolutely lost with allergy information and they had my wife eat food with nuts and almonds several times although she kept asking if it was safe ot not. Very poor job on several occasions from the restaurant staff. Otjer than that it was a very nice and relaxing stay!

Summary: All are good, except no refund when I made duplicate booking by mistake, even I talked to them 1 week before the arriving date. I waste 3 nights
Marie-Aude Oct 25, 2024 06:42:07 PM
Summary: We loved our stay. The hotel is very comfortable and the staff is helpful. The pools are amazing (although a bit cold in the low season). The facilities are in great condition. We couldn’t have asked for more from this hotel!

Summary: Great
Zohra Sep 12, 2024 05:29:24 PM
Summary: We traveled through Crete and stayed at a double bed luxury room with pool view. It was in de building across the street so not in the main building but it was much better over there. Perfectly for couple without kids. Our restaurant was much smaller and less crowded with extra chosen meals from 5 star chef Babi. At this point we wanne thank Nikos, Argiro, Manolis, Giannis and Elaine for your services. At the entrance is a baby kitty and lots of good places to enjoy. To mention the beach is full of Stones maybe you could build a little path with sand sacks or something similar and the cleaners could be a bit precariously. Nevertheless it was a great hotel and so beautiful as well. Thank you for the stuff members who made it more nicer there for us. Greetings Ari and Zoi

Summary: My daughter (15) and I loved this hotel. Our stay was just amazing. We enjoyed our room with a private pool and the awesome pool view. The food was amazing. We liked the buffet. The staff were very nice and the cleaning lady was very kind and caring. It’s a nice hotel for families too. We will be back. Thank you for being a part of our wonderful vacation. Your hotel was a big part of this wonderfulness.

Summary: We stayed in the adults only area which was lovely. We had our own private pool and the room was very spacious. We had no issues with getting sunbeds around the pool in this area but I know those in the main part of the hotel did have. However the sunbeds were the most uncomfortable I have ever come across and whilst the room accommodated three of us, there were only ever two sunbeds on our private patio, despite us asking for another one three times. Food was great, loved being able to dine in each of restaurants once during our stay as we were all inclusive. The prices for these restaurants were as expensive as eating out in the UK so must be pricey for those on half board. The buffet was good, however the food was lukewarm most of the time and not hot. I have been all inclusive before at other hotels and they manage to keep the food hot. Not sure why they couldn't here, despite seeing other reviews complaining about the same issue. All in all, I would stay in the Adults only section again (though its actually age 13 upwards) but I don't think I would go to the main section of the hotel as the sunbed issue and waiting 30 mins to get served in the evening would be a really pain and put me off. Only one additional last thought, they need a standard waste paper bin in the room, the small bins in the bathroom are not good enough for the rubbish such as empty bottles, food packets, paper etc, so we ended up collecting it in a pile for housekeeping to remove.

Summary: The resort was great for the excellent selection of restaurants, food, pools, cleanliness/spotless. Great if one wishes to relax/lounge for several days and enjoy amazing food. On the other hand reception staff seemed a bit defensive and evasive with encountered issues. One particularly annoying thing was 2 treadmills for the hundreds of people at the facility. Having to wait for the right moment for exercise equipment, to work off all that overeating was disappointing. The property is not beachfront, and the beach was painfully rocky. Good stay nonetheless.
Amanda Aug 13, 2024 10:31:24 PM
Summary: Every little thing we needed they took care of. Amazing stay.
Jade Jun 30, 2024 02:30:19 AM
Summary: We spent a few days in one of the larger suites. It was modern, quiet, comfy. The food was good - not the best we have had but above average. Staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. We'd definitely consider it again for quiet/relaxation time. They probably could pay a little extra attention to cleanliness especially around dining areas.
