Ioanna was absolutely amazing. The massage was fantastic and the facial at the end just topped it off. I felt so relaxed and Ioanna was very professional, always checking if I was ok, if the pressure was ok. I would recommend going there

We had to book this at the very last minute, as our planned holiday to Rhodes had been cancelled due to the forest fires. We hadn't planned on Crete and basically took the first option we were given, as it was literally the day before we were due to go. But it worked out very well. This hotel was just all-round good service, especially from the reception desk. Excellent and diverse choice of food for breakfasts and evening meals. Nice pool, plenty of sun loungers, and a very nice restaurant attached which did great fruit cocktails that were very popular with our kids. Best feature was the close proximity to the beach, literally a few metres to steps going down to a shingle beach where the tide was always in. Warm water, even warmer than the pool. The organised trip to the big water park was also really good. My only issue was that I would expect these days for wifi to be available for free in the rooms, as well as in the downstairs public areas, but this was extra. Especially a big consideration when you have teenagers with you. But having said that, it did not detract from our overall excellent stay.

I chose this hotel after the reviews, I regret it and I do not recommend it to anyone. I will say the positive points at the end. I arrived at the hotel with my wife and little girl around 12 o'clock at night, although we should have arrived 2-3 hours earlier, but because of the flight and the operator's tour, everything was delayed. We had half-board as a package, meaning 2 meals in the morning and in the evening without lunch. The hotel does not offer even a glass of water at the evening meal except for a fee of 3 euros! The hotel does not have a beach, it is true that it is located next to the beach, but a place for 2 people costs 12 euros, like any other much more beautiful beach without stones, such as the one next to the hotel. During the week I stayed, an organized group of at least 20 people with quite obvious disabilities arrived at the hotel, making you uncomfortable at the table and in the pool, I don't know why and how. On the day we had to leave, I asked the people at the reception to let us have the room for 2-3 hours after 12:00, because it's complicated to stay with a child and luggage in the heat, as we have a flight at 18:30. The kind and compassionate answer was - it will cost 40 euros! A stain on Greek hospitality, a big disappointment not only for the 40 euros but for the fact that they didn't want to take anything into account, even reminding them of the incident upon arrival. I even sent an email in advance to which no one bothered to answer. Wi-Fi internet is not available in the rooms, only at the reception As positive points I can mention the 5-star cleanliness of the hotel, the culinary dishes that were a dream and the positioning of the hotel in the central tourist area full of all kinds of shops and restaurants.

I'm a returning guest. The hotel is very comfortable, very clean, and a pleasure to stay in. The food is excellent and for the most part, the staff is very friendly and welcoming. As a returning guest, they gave me a beautiful upgrade. The reason I didn't award them with 5 stars is because they charge for Wifi access in your room. and the charge is quite high at €3 / day. It's an inconvenience that simply doesn't belong in the year 2023.
