We stayed at the Lyda Horizon for two weeks in June. The apartments are very basic but clean. The cooking area is tiny and nowhere to eat except outside.Aircon is expensive at 85 euro but a necessity!And beware, you may not get deposit back as the maids watch and note everything. We got ours back but some young girls were... more

OK, it's not the worst aparthotel in the world - that place is somewhere down the road - but judging from the brochure you expect a little more, especially as it's marketed as a four star establishment. Makes me wonder what a two star is like. We had a basement room next to road by which the coaches arrived and... more

We stayed here last year (wife & I) and had great craic. Met lots of friendly people. Staff were great. Room basic. Hotel shop pricey. Food and drink usual hotel prices towards town. Rooms were cleaned regularly. View was stunning. The bogroll thing, with Budget holidays it's par for the course to start with 2 rolls and then you have... more

Myself and my boyfriend have just returned from a 2 week stay at Lyda Horizon. The hotel/apartments are about a 7 minute walk away from the Stalis itself, which makes it close enough to visit but not noisy. Travel guides I've read make Stalis out to be the third ugly sister between hersonissis and malia but this is not true.... more

It was my first time in Crete, we got a last minute deal on budget travel, The view from the hotel bar is a gorgeous panoramic view of stalis bay. Plenty of sunbeds around the pool, The hotel is lovely and would be worth it just for the views. The rooms are basic but clean and the location is ideal... more

Just returned from Stalis and already looking into going back over. Stalis itself is amazing with a lot of shops,bars and resteraunts to choose from. Its not as mad as it would be in Hersonassis which suited me down to the ground.Had a great time in the Irish house and i reccomend you go there when Mick the Shot is... more

Myself and my two friends stayed in Lyda Horizons the last week in May. We had never been to Crete before and were a bit apprehensive after reading some of the negative comments about the complex here. We absolutely loved the place though! We had heard that the old block was meant to be horrible but we were put in... more
