We travel to Crete twice a year, travelling around the different prefectures, instead of staying in one location. This hotel was very surprising. We booked it while in Elounda on the Eastern end of the island, planning to only stay one day, but ended up staying four. The rooms are really long and narrow, and all seem to point down... More

From day one for the whole 2 weeks, the hotel, staff, food, poolside bar, beach were all fantastic, we had a bottle of champagne & fruit awaiting us for when we got there, as we are in our 50's this all made our honeymoon stay excellent. We went on the on all the little coloured trains into the mountains to... More

I stayed at the Orpheas Resort for 7 nights with my sister at the end of September. Even though the weather wasn't great we really enjoyed our stay. It's not a huge hotel, which I like because it has a friendly, personal atmosphere. Our room had sea view and a beautiful balcony with chairs and a table. The room itself... More

It was my third visit to Crete over many years but I can honestly say that this time was made even better because of my stay at Orpheas resort. This beautiful boutique hotel is well located and has a quiet, refined elegance to it. It's just a real find that represents excellent value and service.

We stayed here for a week in September 2010 after having attended a wedding in the east of the island which we love. We thought we'd extend the trip to have a look around the Chania area and drove for almost seven hours to get here which is definitely NOT recommended - nerves were in tatters by the time we... More

Plus points - hotel, pools and beach all within 60 yards - perfect. Service was excellent, friendly and helpful. Minus - pool barman seemed to forget the happy hour discount ....... everyday!! Took quite a long time to get to the resort with Thomsons and little information about the resort from them either. Overall an excellent place to stay for... More

We stayed at Orpheas Resort for one week. The hotel is much more than expected. High demand for the hotel made it difficult for us to book our stay but this is understandable taking in mind its location, services and overall feel of the place.

The service is very friendly and excellent. The atmosphere and the furnishings in the dining and bar areas are fantastic. There is a great diversity of food and beverage choices. Go to this resort if you need super service, good food, beautiful gardens and view. Choose junior suite because of the fantastic view. This is relaxation!

We have just returned from a great 2 week holiday in this wonderful resort. On our arrival we were warmly greeted by one of the 2 friendly and efficient receptionists who seemed ever present throughout our stay. The rooms were basic but very clean and comfortable with more than adequate storage for my wifes extensive collection of shoes! The food,... More
