We stayed in September and it was really great weather apart from a couple of the days but still a million times better than England! I guess our first impressions weren't amazing the driveway is pretty steep and took us 3 girls in our 20's about 5 minutes to get to the top but it will keep you fit! and... More

We have had a lovely holiday at Golden. Eleni & Yianni, as well as Fortini from Olympic were very welcoming and it proved to be a great base for my husband and I to explore Eastern Crete. We love driving around so the out of town location was ideal for us. The pool is truly wonderful and is a great... More

So our October break at Golden has come and gone and we are now looking forward to 2012. As usual everything was spot on, Yianni and Eleni are the best. Other recent reviewers of them seem to be missing the point. The apartments are self-catering, and the location is accurately described by Olympic - if you want everything free go... More

I can't believe all the positive reviews! I stayed in room 10 which is a second floor apartment, the apartment is a 2 bedroom and was clean and spacious, especially as I was on my own....................UNFORTUNATELY it is run by a money grabbing, self interested, unhelpful fellow (cant use the word I should) called Yianni. I booked through Olympic holidays... More

We have just returned from a 7 day stay at Golden - sadly it wasn't long enough. Anyone who can pick fault with the place, the prices or the people must be seriously deluded. Yianni and Eleni are amazing hosts, the bar food is excellent and the prices are very reasonable indeed. The apartments and the grounds are fabulous, very... More

We are back in the UK after another great stay with Yianni, Eleni & their team. Once again we felt like we had come home and that we were part of their extended family. We enjoyed food at golden regularly and also in Aghios Nikolaos, Elounda, Lakonia & up on the Lassithi Plateau. We are already looking forward to our... More

I have returned from a week's stay in Crete in the resort of Agios Nikolaos staying at the Golden Apartments. The apartment was spacious and quite good. We were opposite the pool and next to the bar which was fine during the day but at night it became a problem because we had the poolside toliet adjacent to the apartment.... More

My friend and I stayed for a week - we had room 2 which was 1st floor with 2 lovely balconies. The rooms were clean and basic but perfectly adequate. We paid an additional 8 euros a day for air conditioning and it was worth it as the temperature was in the 40's during the day. The air conditioning goes... More

Yes, the hotel is a bit far out of town and there is some noise from the road...but Yannis and Elene made us feel like guests of their family rather than tourists. The 2 bed apartments were good for families, the pool excellent and the hotel spotless. They made such an effort to make us feel welcome. They spoilt the... More
