This was an amazing experience. The hotel is soooo cool. Adults only. Private pool. Shared Pool. Jacuzzi. 5 min walk from the beach and the staff will do anything to make your stay perfect. 15 min from the airport,

The room was very large and well equipped. The private pool in the room was fantastic. The check-in and check-out process went smoothly. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The cats were very cute.

Wonderful hotel in a nice location in Ammoudara. I can totally recommend the private pool rooms, especially the quieter ones like we had - really worth the money! Everyone from the staff was super nice and helpful, we'll definitely return once more.

Amazing stay! Totally worth the price. Everything was perfect – great food, super friendly staff, and they were really careful with my lactose-free needs. Loved the private pool and the tennis court! Couldn’t have asked for a better stay!

Personnel was very helpful and kind. Especially the girls in reception. The bungalow with the private pool is just amazing. Plenty of food, snacks, and drinks during the day.

We stayed in the bungalow with private pool. Room was stunning and facilities were amazing. Staff are very helpful and accommodating

The staff was very accommodating, attentive and friendly. The rooms with access to the private pool were really nice.

Excellent hotel with good breakfast, with private pool and next to a beach with several bars. Good place to get away from the big cities and relax.

We loved our stay at Nostos. Great location, right on top of the beach in a small resort town. Room decor was beautiful, and was a good size. Balcony overlooked the pool and sea. 2 swimming pools, both well maintained and beds usually available. Would recommend a stay here for anyone looking for a relaxing break.

The most helpful and welcoming personel, breakfast is a variety of every taste, coffee is good which has a big importance for me. Pool is clean, rooms are clean and cozy, bed is comfortable, just beachfront, you wake up in heaven. We had a pool-front room with a nice view.

Really lovely hotel nice and clean. Only downfall is that there is only one englisj channel on the tv and the receptionist isn’t to welcoming. There was no hot water sometimes I’m not sure if they turn it on at a certain time or if it just wasn’t working. Amazing deep pool and lovely sun beds the top pool was a bit busy. The staff in the the nostos cafe are lovely wouldnt fault it. Definitely recommend

We loved the location and the direct access to the beach. The stuff was friendly and we very much enjoyed our daily breakfast with a sea view. The facilities of the hotel (e.g., pools, terrace, restaurant) were well maintained and clean, though the pool side filled up quite quickly in the mornings.

Beautiful grounds and pool. Lovely and peaceful. The food was amazing and the staff were so polite snd helpful. We were upgraded to a swim up room.

The property was unique in that it had so many swim up rooms & beautiful pools. My room might have been a bit small for 2 people.

Swim up rooms, pool area, access to beach, service, relaxation. Staff were so attentive, obliging and delivered all with a smile, nothing was too much trouble. Food is excellent.

Excellent choice at breakfast, pleasant staff and location. Swim up room, plenty of pools and beds and private beach. Quiet location

The meals were very good and the swim up pool was most enjoyable

All inclusive resort. Very friendly. We did the exclusive premier room with private pool - better if you prefer personal time - not crowded "public" pool.

A nice hotel that gives you all you need. We stayed in in private pool room that gave unlimited access to the a la carte resteraunts. I would highly recommend this as the main resteraunt is like a school canteen. Staff overall very good apart from reception who could not be ruder if they tried .

Property is quite isolated which was fine for what we wanted but if you’re not here to relax it might not be ideal. There are some stunning views from the hotel, we did have a private pool but unfortunately the weather wasn’t on our side and we didn’t get much use but still enjoyed the views. The staff are very friendly and helpful, they do respond to issues very quickly for example our bathroom window wouldn’t close but maintenance was at our room in less than 30 minutes to fix. The food was excellent and the buffet was different each night which was nice.

The hotel is nice , the staff went out of their way to give the best service they could , extremely lovely people! The view from our room facing the Rock was A ONE Million dollar view - the hotel is built on a hill, great for good walkers. You can chose a room with a private pool if you wish. The food was very good and with a great variety , yet above all the credit goes to the wonderful staff @reception and @the hotel restaurants.

We arrived around 9pm and were offered a late meal in the restaurant. Staff were friendly on checkout, I think maybe as a result of several emails we'd sent advising our holiday was for a birthday celebration. We were shown to room 355, with its own pool and on two levels. We'd booked a supreme sea view with own pool so we were happy. We got slippers and dressing gowns,but these were old and not very fluffy. As in previous reviews, the furniture and paintwork is tired, but the necessities are all there and we arrived to a bottle of wine and bowl of fruit in our room which we thought was a nice touch. The bedding was fresh and very clean, but only one UK TV station - news 24. The food was very varied, and we both found plenty to eat (we're both fussy eaters!) The private pool was a very good size, and we spent a majority of our time in it. The staff try very hard to make your holiday, from the room cleaners to waiting staff, everyone is friendly and smiley. Sadly definitely not a five star hotel as per UK standards, but well worth visiting.

We had the top penthouse with private pool, it has a dream setup, ideal for a couples break. Staff was always helpfull, good food and the surroundings where very beautiful

We had a wonderful week at this hotel, we really enjoyed staying in a suite with private pool. It was quiet, away from the busy area of the hotel, and the sunrise views were spectacular. The whole hotel team made sure that we had the best possible stay and we really appreciate their help. Lovely hotel breakfast, great restaurant and room service menu, fantastic housekeeper with great attention to details... we wished we had stayed longer!

The view from the room was unreal - we looked out from our bed over the cove and the beach was a short walk down from the hotel (7-10 min). Breakfast had so many options. The pool area was cute and well set up to soak int he pool or relax in the sun. We ordered drinks and food from the pool and both were great.

The hotel is absolutely perfect. There are too many things we liked about it but I will try and list some of the things. The friendly staff made our stay unforgettable. I didn’t get all of their names unfortunately but Angela stood out due to her happy & bubbly personality - she always has a smile on her face. All of the staff are so nice, very welcoming and accommodating. The hotel also has 2 swimming pools (one being the quiet pool which was so peaceful & relaxing!). The food at the hotel was delicious & the beach/restaurants (so many restaurants to choose from) are only a 5 minute walk away!! The bus stop is right outside so you can get a bus into the city. Lastly, the room was so homely, clean & comfortable. The list is honestly endless. We loved our stay. We will definitely be back & I would recommend this hotel to everyone!!

We loved our stay at the Irida Hotel. This boutique family-owned hotel was perfect for us. It was modern, clean and fresh with great views across Agia Pelagia bay. Service was outstanding, with staff remembering your name, always smiling and friendly. Great cocktails and good food and wine - we were also able to do a local wine tasting session which was great. The room was modern and equipped with a small kitchen which was useful. Comfortable sun loungers and nice pool area, pool a little cold but to be expected for October. In a good location about a 7 min walk from the main beach. I would recommend this hotel.

Swim up room was lovely. Staff were all really helpful and friendly.

absolutely wonderful receptionists Agellika and Ioanna (hope I spell it right), amazing and helpful, thank you very much. the hotel is small and cozy, own beach, swim up room well worth the extra money.

Music was loud until 8 or 9pm and playing until midnight. Lots of people by the pool. Great sunbathing area to work from in the swim-up rooms while you watch beautiful people partying. It's a hotel room in a nightclub. If that's what you want (which I did) then it's great. If you don't want that, stay elsewhere. Either way, no complaining! and you should absolutely upgrade to the swim-up rooms.

The rooms are very nice. Clean and modern The beds very comfortable We stayed for three nights and kept extending our stay We went from a suite ocean front to a swim up room to another suite The final night we didn’t have a tv in the bedroom which was very odd since the other rooms had one and some rooms had two tv for a suite Breakfast were included and you order a La carte Beach facilities were well organized and staff very attentive

Fantastic location, situated within a valley surrounded by mountains. Our apartment with swim up pool was East facing so you have sun all morning through to 2pm.

Lovely swim up pool, relaxing feeling and beautiful scenery

We had an appartment with a "private" pool which was super nice. This hotel is an excellent choice for chilling, drinking and soak in the sun. The town right next to it is charming and has nice beaches, lots of restaurant.

Spacious, clean, modern swim up suite. Nice, quiet, overseas view location. Pleasant ambiance at restaurant to enjoy some refreshing drinks or coffee. Good varieties all inclusive options. Lovely pool area, always with some nice background music. Private parking. Great service, whole stuff service on high level, specially Mr. Stelios. Big thanks to all of them.

Really lovely accommodation. We didn’t have the greatest weather but the swim up pool was lovely even in the rain! Spacious apartments and a really handy shuttle down into Bali. The staff were very helpful. The food was good not the biggest range of options but what was there was lovely and fresh. We would definitely stay again.

Oh my god. This was the best experience ever. If you want calm and relaxing and some luxury, this is the place. The staff are lovely, every single one. They do every thing to make you feel great. Rooms are as good as it gets, private pool is awesome!

Upon arrival, you see the attention to detail paid to the design of the facilities, but that extends through the warmth and positivity of the staff. I absolutely loved my room and the size of my private pool; my yard was perfect for daily sunbathing in peace.

Private pool, modern environment, quiet and peaceful hotel with beautiful interior design. Extremely friendly and professional staff, exceptional food, also next to beautiful sandy beach with lovely sun lounges, make our stay very comfortable and perfect.

The hotel’s restaurant is very good with a great view on the sea. And the staff is very friendly and helpful.

Without a doubt a magnificent experience to spend my last days of vacation in this boutique hotel. Very attentive and warm staff, very well equipped and brand new hotel. Large rooms with private pool. Recommended 100%. Thank you very much for the great stay we had with my girlfriend.

Great location! The hotel was really nice and the staff was great. Dimitra helped us a lot and was very knowledgeable and professional. The private pool was great. We enjoyed that it was adults only as we were on our honeymoon. Lots of dining nearby

Fantastic hotel. The room was absolutely stunning with duplex split level, stunning design and decor plus outdoor private plunge pool. Topped off by great staff, and a very welcoming hotel manager. Superb! Definitely recommended.

Everything was great. Great breakfast, beautiful room with private pool, excellent service by staff. Loved it!

Nice staff, all inclusive food was well cooked with quality and good variety. Pools not over crowded (beginning of July). Nice view from pool/bar and bedrooms

Nice hotel with comfortable rooms. The staffs were extremely friendly and very helpful. The pools were nice and the bars by the pool well located. The hotel asked for our feedback half way through our trip and within a few hours our feedback was taking into consideration. The sea is only about 10mins walk away.

The food, the pool, the staff and this amazing view

We stayed in end of May 2025. The food as part of the all inclusive was “excellent”. So much variety and and there were new dishes on the menu for lunches and dinners. All inclusive wines, beers and at least 20 cocktails made with wines, ouza and Raki was included at the pool bar as part of the all inclusive deal. The quality of the meals was excellent and the restaurant staff were amazing. Special thanks for George and Viktoria at the Restaurant for making our staff welcoming. Huge thanks for the Head Chef for the amazing dishes. We also had amazing views from our balcony. Beds were comfy. The hotel had entertaining shows every night.

wonderful suite with private pool excellent design of the new area - pool bar and restaurant in the new area are not open yet - breakfast does not match the quality of the new hotel facility But we are sure it will be a fantastic place once the whole new area is open next year! Highly recommended!

This is an absolute must-stay property. It is gorgeous, the rooms are impeccably clean and modern with so many small touches. The staff is beyond compare and made us feel like family. The food is amazing and the free breakfast was plentiful and delicious. We loved every aspect of our stay and will stay here again if the opportunity allows. Splurge for the suites with the private pool if you can. You will not regret it, I promise.

The rooms were stunning, we had a private pool and it was so worth it! The views from everywhere in the hotel are gorgeous. Clean rooms, luxurious and comfortable! The only downside is that it is away from the main city but we were ok with that since we mostly wanted to have a relaxing couple of days before the next leg of our honeymoon! Highly recommend :)

The hotel has the most amazing staff, the food is great and the location is just a great peaceful hideout from the city... Highly recommended. We took the cave suite with private pool in june, it was quiet and nice and nearly no one gets near the suite expect for the cleaning lady! Great for our honey moon

Spectacular view, not too far from the airport. Wonderful room, clean and spacious, we got a room with private pool and sea view. Nice beaches close by. Strongly recommend getting a rental car to move around. Stay on the main roads!!! Food at the hotel could be better (breakfastis is ok), you are better off finding restaurants to eat out for dinner.

The hotel was amazing!! The staff were SUPER friendly, helpful and efficient! They were happy & willing to help with all questions and enquiries! The Room was a SMART Room so we could do everything on a tablet without leaving the bed…lol and the private pool/Jaccuzi was a bonus! The city centre was less than a 5min walk from the hotel, with a variety of places to eat (food was delicious) and night spots! I booked a 50min deep tissue massage for my birthday with the in hotel Spa and absolutely LOVED IT! It was worth every penny! All facilities in the Hotel and Spa were clean and beautiful! I would definitely go back and highly recommend the hotel to anyone!!

The staff were amazing and really cared for us for our every need, recommended places to visit, and made us special drinks for our liking in the morning breakfast. The room was big and beautiful with a smart TV that connects to the phone so you can watch whatever you like at night. The pool and the breeze at the top of the hotel were magnificent, fun, and relaxing. The pool and spa at the bottom level were still under construction because the hotel is new but it looks beautiful and feels luxurious. In addition, we had to stay longer because of a delay to our flight and the hotel gave us a discount for an extra night. *Sorry for not taking pictures of the room we actually didn't have one without us inside. but the room looks exactly like in the hotel photos

It is a gorgeous property, every detail is beautiful. The staff went above and beyond from the very first day when we got lost, and the bell man came to where we were and directed us to the property. We also love that there was parking right in front of the hotel. Breakfast was so delicious, we ate too much, but it would usually carry us through dinner. Our room had a balcony and on the balcony there was a Jacuzzi pool, very fun! The hotel also has a rooftop bar and pool. We loved every moment of our stay at this Beautifully run new hotel.

Very comfortable hotel with great personnel and facilities. Filled outstanding from check-in until the check-out. Very tasty and varied breakfast in the cozy dining area. Nice pool on the roof with bar service. The pool is large enough. The room was good equipped, and we found everything we needed. Clean, compliment water every day, coffee machine, large bed, very clever system of lights, and even a small balcony. Strongly recommend!

Very close to the centre. Amazing pool and jacuzzi facilities that you got for 1hr each day (must book a time with the spa receptionist) along with a 15min free spa treatment. To use the sauna and steam room this is an extra cost, all this ensures that the pool and spa is never over crowded. The breakfast was superb. Friendly bar and spa staff. Room was large and very comfortable.

Despite what some reviews might say, this is a fantastic hotel. It has views to die for, a wonderful setting, great food, great staff, a spa, a gym, two pool areas with bars, a beach bar, an indoor bar and a delightful, bonus a la carte restaurant. My wife and I had a wonderful, relaxing two weeks here. I mean, yes, if you don't like the thought of walking hundreds of steps per day (the hotel is built onto a cliff-side hence the views) then you're it's not for you. We saw it as a way of off-setting the enormous amounts of food. However, you can order a mini-bus at the dial of a phone to pick you up and move you around this extensive resort. The beach is small but private and virtually exclusive. The water is clear,I safe and there is a life guard on duty. The entertainment could be better; if you are into big, animation then this is limited but the small team do work hard. However, if you like your holiday quiet then this it is perfect at the 'quiet' pool. Just a final word, this is an international hotel, not your average Brit style resort and this means many nationalities. It seems to be a particular favourite with Russians so if you like the 'fish and chips by the sea' type holiday this isn't that. It was fun to watch world cup games here.

Nice hotel built onto the cliff,with three pools and a small sandy beach.It had a good size,comfortable rooms with great views.Bathroom was quite dated but clean,with lovely toiletries provided so there was no need to bring anything.It had a main restaurant,where breakfast and dinner was served and A la carte restaurant that you could book once (highly recommend it).Main restaurant had a great choice of fresh fruit,salads,grilled meats,fish,olives and cheese for people like me,who don't eat chips and spaghetti on holiday.However drinks choice was a let down-no fresh juices at the restaurant,just those sugary mixers,and you had to pay for one at the bar!Also they charged for international drinks and wine and we had to pay for drinks after 11pm!Facilities were good.Three pools to choose from,two of them quiet ones and one with usual entertainment.Beach was small but very clean and lovely.There were three bars too,one of them at the beach.Three tennis courts were available too.Service of staff was ok,except Despina at the main restaurant and Sofia at the beach bar,who were fantastic!Always smiling and friendly but quick.As hotel is built on a cliff it might not be suitable for elderly people or people with very small children as there are steep hills and lots of stairs to take to go from rooms to reception and beach.However there is a free shuttle bus going up and down every 15 min or so that many people used.

We were hesitant to book given some of the ropey reviews, however from the moment we arrived our doubts disappeared. 5 star customer service from checking in to checking out, the reception staff were very good, even when busy they ensured everyone was looked after quickly (often in 3 or 4 different languages too). The hotel has 4 different bars and in every one the staff were excellent also, in particular the lady at the beach bar who made everyone feel very welcome. Some of the reviews point out the size of the hotel (around 700 rooms i think) which can make it hard work to get from one area to the next if your room is near the beach and furthest from the hotel, whilst this isn't ideal the amazing flowering plants not to mention the weather (in October) made the journey pleasant. There is a courtesy bus to and from the hotel to beach, but as it's 5 minutes down and 10 or so up, we tended to enjoy the walk. The beach although small had great facilities and excellent snorkelling potential, and as we booked in October there was plenty space too. Please don't let any reviews put you off this hotel, yes it's on a hill, yes it probably isn't 5 star because of the rooms and wifi and basic entertainment, however the service, location, views, pools, beach, and food were incredible - great value for money in my view.

The staff are amazing - always friendly and cheerful, within special mention for Dionysus in the restaurant and Tina in the spa! The food offered in the all-inclusive is varied and of excellent quality. This was one of the reasons we returned to stay having heard many other hotels offering all-inclusive fall down on this. The hotel has undergone a number of improvements recently in its accommodation and facilities and the grounds are well maintained. The accommodation is built in a village style down the hillside to the blue flag beach, allowing the guests to wander around the resort without feeling crowded and due to the number of steps a great way to work off all the delicious food! The only negative comment would be the volume of music payed at the main pool area. Not all guests enjoy the high volume clubbing beat all day but may want to participate in the organised activities, restaurant and spa. The age range of guests is wide with families, teenagers to older couples. Thank you for a wonderful stay. We will definitely be back!

The reviews below initially put me off booking, but am very glad I chose to stay here in the end. The staff are excellent (shout out to the two Andrei's), the food buffets delicious and the various pools, beaches, games facilities are the perfect setting for a few nights of relaxation. Really lives up to its 5 star status.

So peaceful and beautiful. Close to town but perched on the mountain with a beautiful view and private pool. It was relaxing!

It is comfortable, clean and so wonderful to have a private pool with a beautiful view!!

It was the best stay in my whole life. Best value for money for sure. The pool is amazing. If I ever gonna be on Krite again, I would 100% book this place once again. Breakfast was super good, with a lot of food, the girl who served it always asked if we need anything more, what we want to change, or maybe we have some allergies. Overall super friendly stuff. You can see that apartment is new, but the owner is taking great care of the place, fixing the smallest issues, cleaning the pool, etc.

We had a wonderful stay! The room was beautifully furnished and very clean, with a comfortable bed. The hosts were friendly and welcoming. The pool area was lovely and perfect for relaxing, and the whole place is very quiet and peaceful – ideal for a relaxing holiday. Highly recommended!

This was probably the most beautiful place we've ever stayed. The service was amazing and the apartment was perfect! Having a pool to ourselves was refreshing and the view was breathtaking. Absolutely nothing we would have changed, except staying longer!

Perfect new room with private pool. Would recommend to everyone! Helpful staff members and very delicious food in Hotel restaurant. Quiet place to chill out

Family owned, and you feel it! Everything very new and fresh. Wonderful private pool for the suites.

We were looking for a quiet location with a beautiful view and a resort feel. This location provides all of that. The suite that we stayed in has its own private pool overlooking the Agean. This has to be one of the quietest locations we have stayed in. Absolutely beautiful. The hosts were wonderful - genuinely friendly and helpful. The onsite restaurant was exceptional. The location is about 30 min from the center of the city and the airport/port. There is also an onsite car rental which is extremely convenient.

Fabulous suite, the area was quite, with your own plunge pool, If you wanted company you could go to the main area. The restaurant always had beautiful food, fresh cooked, served by happy staff. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, situated perfectly for any trips we wanted to do. I would highly recommend the Spiros-Soula Thermatic suits for an exceptional holiday👍🤗

This hotel is the best place to go for calmness and an escape of life. The staff were friendly and always provided a professional approach. The food at the restaurant was excellent and our room was just perfect. I would recommend a car hire if you stay here. It’s out of the way of anything walkable and therefore if you plan to leave the hotel then a car is a must including popping to the local supermarket. I found for a five star hotel, having extras would be good such as the mini bar for the price you pay. €5 for a small Coke and a €10 charge for room service seemed a little steep. The restaurant isn’t the cheapest but well worth the money. Breakfast was excellent, a choice from the menu and buffet so awesome choice. We booked in to play tennis which was great. The gym is 24/7 but very limited in terms of equipment. As someone who goes to the gym regularly, I found that it was quite low level in terms of equipment. The only other negative would be the day we were due to check out our pool was emptied. We check out at 12:00hrs as our flight wasn’t until 23:00hrs so wanted to make the most of our private pool. However having woken up early, we found our pool to be emptied only for it to be filled by the time we had to check out. I would definitely come back here for the calm and the excellent service you receive here.

This place was amazing! Definitely the nicest lodging I have ever stayed in. We stayed in the Gaia suite which had an infinity pool that overlooked the ocean directly off of the cliff. The staff was incredibly nice and helped with anything we needed. The only downside I can even think of is that the food and drinks were expensive, but it makes sense for a place as nice as Acro. However, On our way out, they gave us a free lunch box with a sandwich and fruit - so thoughtful! We also did a couples massage and I was disappointed to find out that we couldn’t use the bathhouse after. I can’t wait to come back to Crete someday and will definitely stay here!

This place is somewhat in a league of its own. Incredibly stylish with beautiful rooms which come with their own sitting area and pool. The whole feeling of the report is of calm and relaxation. The food in the restaurants is excellent, the service is great and the gym facilities spotless and stylish. On top of this the staff are the nicest and most attentive (if you require) of anywhere we have been. I cannot recommend Acro enough and really hope to return soon.

They should have communicated that they need 48 hour prior notice to get the outside pool heated. ! Not wait for me to possibly notice it on their website.

Not all 5-star hotels are the same. I have stayed at other 5-star hotels including in Crete. I think Acro is above and beyond a 5-star hotel because it is unique and outstanding. Acro Wellness Suites is just Exceptional! My stay at Acro for about a week from June 11-June 18th was above and beyond my expectations; it was a wonderful and great experience. My stay felt like a month rather than a week because I was enjoying every moment. The hospitality and service was awesome. The outdoor views from my suite and outside of Acro are breathtaking! All the staff at Acro are friendly, courteous, kind and they always made me feel like one of their own and my stay comfortable like home except with a much much better experience because they are always at your disposal. The staff and my stay at Acro made my visit to Crete worth it and memorable by making it much more fun, friendly, and enjoyable. Whenever I needed something or a special request, I enjoyed and loved communicating with the reception staff without picking up the suite phone--if you stay at Acro, you will find out what I mean.....). I'm divorced and, if I get married again, I will do my honeymoon at Acro. I have no complaints because I was always happy at Acro. Once again, thank you Acro and to all the wonderful staff for a great and memorable experience. I can't wait to come back again!

Great location, very helpful staff. The pool area was terrific, very nice pool and loungers. The rooms weren't quite as nicely decorated as the outside pool area, but they were adequate and the beds were comfortable. Would stay here again.

Amazing place to relax, sit by the pool, easy access to the beach. Nice breakfast, restaurant and drinks. Two pools and play area for the kids ! Very nice and highly recommended !!

We had an excellent stay at Nostos during our family holiday in July. Most helpful and kind personnel I’ve ever seen, perfect location by the beach, clean and comfortable room, nice swimming pool, super tasty food at the restaurant. There are also many restaurants and bars in the area and location is good for visiting the island either with a rental bar or with organised excursions. Highly recommend !

Excellent facilities and style, well kept gardens, nice pools and next to the beach. The room was nicely furnished, modern and comfortable. A buffet breakfast was offered which you could enjoy on the veranda overlooking the sea. A buffet dinner was also provided with an extra small charge but we did not tried it. Overall a very nice stay in a very nicely designed hotel.

The bar area of the hotel is really nice and the pool area and it’s on a beautiful beach. The breakfast was excellent and the food we ordered at lunch. The rooms were really nice and big. The Bathroom could be slightly more modern compared to the rooms but it was clean and fine. Would definitely go back to this hotel.

Lovely resort, a bit remote, but if you want a relaxing time then it’s perfect. Only 30 minutes to Heraklion airport by taxi and slightly longer to the town by local bus. Good choice of pools and plenty of available sun beds. Stayed all inclusive and the choice of food and drink was good. There was a fair selection of evening entertainment on site. Would visit again.

10min walk to a beach where there are some restaurants and supermarkets. 10min drive to a PADI diving center. You can also relax by the pool. The full board price is 25 euro per day which is quite reasonable. You can also enjoy the sunset in the bar!

Sehr freundliches Personal; toll ausgestattete Zimmer; Ausblick aufs Meer; Zimmer und Poolanlagen sauber; Essen abwechslungsreich und gut

Jättefint hotell där det mesta är toppen. Vi hade ett familjerum i huvudbyggnaden o det var jättefint. Frukosten var kanon. Luncherna sisådär. Ungarna hittade inte så mycket att äta så dem gick ner till poolbaren o åt pizza. Middagarna var toppen. Showerna som dem hade varje kväll var toppen o ungarna var helnjöda. Det negativa var att det var en lång backe ner till havet o det var ganska halt i vattnet då det var stora stenblock i hela området. Att dem inte hade några drinkar. Borde finnas kanske några stycken att välja på. Tråkigt att dem inte spelar grekisk musik då det är det man vill höra när man är där o inte popmusik som man lyssnar på resten av året. Ganska långt ifrån dem fina stränderna ifall man vill se dem. Tog 3 timmar till Elafonissi o lina lång tid till Balos.

Had a lovely week. We were on B&B terms although most of the hotel seemed to be on an all inclusive basis. Breakfasts were ok, reasonable selection, seen worse. We had quiet rooms in a annex up the hill from the main hotel. Just as well as the permanent disco music blaring out around the main pool would have been very disturbing. We had to ask the hotel staff to do a few minor things but they responded well. Great views across the bay.

Everything is great. We enjoyed everything at the hotel, the food is delicious and the staff is very nice. We had a double room with a private pool, we really liked it. We planned to stay for one night, but after we tried the hotel, we booked one more night

We visited just 2 days after the start of the season and stayed for 7 days. The hotel was very well maintained compared to some other Mediterranean locations we've stayed in. The food at the main restaurant had some daily variation with some themes days in between. The quality of the food was always great, especially the local vegetables and meat / fish on offer. Do try the Flavor restaurant with the wine pairing if you can, it's a great way to get away from the chaos that buffets can sometimes be. We loved the onsite gym which is on par if not above some dedicated gyms in terms of equipment variety & quality. The fitness activities are also great! I can recommend the bike tours offered by the hotel, the mountain and road bikes they have are very well maintained and even for me at 2.07m tall there was something available. Give the archery course a try! Hendrick did a great job at explaining everything and helping us improve over time! Hotel staff was incredibly friendly and helpful any time of day and no matter the question. The guest service will try to accommodate any request you might have. Overall we loved our stay at Candia Maris and will definitely come back next year for another relaxing holiday.

It was fantastic! The staff couldn’t have been friendlier, such a home from home. The resort is huge which means that even though there are a lot of people it doesn’t feel busy. There are so many different areas to explore and it’s in a brilliant location just 10 minutes drive from Heraklion. The food was brilliant, which isn’t always the case in an all inclusive. So much variety, really delicious and very good at catering for allergies.

The staff was amazing! So kind and helpful. We really enjoyed all of the amenities too. The beach was beautiful but windy some days. It still felt lovely to lay out! And the food was wonderful.

Great activities and great entertainment staff. I was pleasantly surprised how super the solo traveller experience was. Great credit to Ami and Mel.

We had an amazing stay at Pitho - Okeanidas Villas in Crete. The villa was spotless, very well maintained, and fully equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable holiday. The location was perfect, with stunning direct sea views and only a short 10 minute drive to the lively village of Bali. The private pool was always clean and ideal for daily swims, making our stay even more relaxing. What really made the difference, however, were the wonderful hosts. They were incredibly kind, attentive, and always willing to help to make sure we felt welcome. A special mention goes to Yannis and his homemade breakfasts, every morning was a new surprise, with delicious and varied dishes that allowed us to experience different local flavors. Overall, this villa exceeded our expectations in every way. It’s a truly beautiful place with exceptional hospitality, and we would love to return in the future. Highly recommended!

This is a quiet, spacious villa with a private pool overlooking an incredible view. Our hosts were overly accommodating very quick in response to questions or needs. Breakfast brought to us each day surpassed expectations loaded with plenty of food and local cuisine. Bali is 5 minutes away for great beaches, shops and dining and you’re pretty central to everything on Crete. Easily drivable to major cities, attractions and local airports. Villa cat we nicknamed “Artemis” visited us every evening with welcoming meows. Would strongly recommend to anyone looking for privacy vs crazy busy resorts.

We absolutely loved our stay!! There are three villas, we stayed in Kalypso, the middle villa which has a higher pool than the rest. The villa itself is the oldest but so beautiful, the views from inside and out are amazing! You wake up and go asleep to beautiful sunsets and sunrises. It's exceptionally quiet, a little noise from the road but not bad. It has absolutely everything you need and more, beach towels (although we stayed by our pool most of the time), sauna, lovely pool and pool area with table tennis, outdoor shower, and more! The decor has such wonderful touches to make you feel at home, candles, cushions, decor, they really have gone above and beyond to make it a home from home. We had a car, we used it to go to the nearby town of Bali for shopping and to eat out a few times. I think you probably need a car, especially if you want to buy groceries, maybe eat out. We did a few day trips too but mainly enjoyed the pool area and the amazing privacy of the villa. The brilliant Yannis lives near by and comes every morning with the most amazing breakfast tray full of home made goodness!! Alexandros was always only a phone call away and GoGo kept the pace so clean and tidy for us! We had one issue the night of arrival which wasn't very nice, but even in the middle of the night, it was handled so well and all was rectified! We'll definitely back, a stunning location and very relaxing! Karen and Ed

Great breakfast, delivered personally by the hosts. Plenty of food for us all and local varied foods. The villa is very private with wonderful views over the coast. The pool was clean and the surrounding of the pool great for spending time relaxing, reading, soaking up the peace and quiet. Location is great, not too far to beaches, the town, and Bali just 10 mins away.

Everything was wonderful. We loved the outstanding sea view from the pool and the terrace. The breakfast was delicious. Fresh fruits, omelette, tomatoes, cucumber, olives. homemade cake and more…. As a welcome gift we got wine and raki. The hosts were very friendly and we felt at home from the first day.

Everything! Incredible views, separate large bedrooms with en-suites so everyone has their privacy, huge living room and TV plus dining tables in kitchen and outside. Beautiful pool, privacy and security. Perfect! Oh and also has its own BBQ and additional seating area in the back too! We had an incredible time at this beautiful villa. It was absolutely the way it looks in the pictures. The host was WONDERFUL. We had an issue with one of the showers one day and he sorted it straightaway. The fridge had been stocked for our arrival. A cleaner came halfway through the week. I’d recommend hiring a car though as the location is out in the sticks a little so taxis and food delivery places can’t get there but the villa itself is gorgeous.

Fantastic, comfortable and very well equipped villa in perfect distance from the sea. It is located 25 minutes walk away from the beach and beach bars. Outstanding restaurant located 4 minutes walk away from the villa. Minimarket located within 20 minutes walk or 5 minutes drive by car. Three independent bedrooms with own bathrooms make this villa a great choice for group of friends. Great, large private swimming pool makes the holiday time even better. Well equipped indoor kitchen and also fully equipped outdoor kitchen allow to have great dinners with self prepared food. I do recommend this property to all travelers wishing to stay away from the crowd in comfort conditions.

Beautiful, luxurious new villa with every comfort. There is a fantastic outdoor grilling area, a private swimming pool with shower and terraces with views to the sea. Every bedroom has its private ensuite bathroom. The villa is one of two adjacent twin villas, however the vicinity of the other villa did not bother us. Fruits, sweets, local delicacies and chilled wine were awaiting for us!! Many thanks to the hosts, they were super friendly and helped us in many ways.

This has been an amazing villa; it definitely exceeded our expectations. The owner has waited for us with goods in the fridge and homemade olive oil which was delicious. The barbecue area was great for us and we enjoyed many delicious meals there. The views are incredible; the pool is very big and there are lots of sitting areas around the villa. Would definitely recommend this place if you re looking for a relaxing holiday.

Our stay was brilliant, the villa was very modern with an amazing view out to Dia island, the pool was particularly nice, long enough to swim laps. The three bedrooms had separate en-suites — the kids liked having their own ‘apartments’.

We just checked in after traveling from Athens and walking around all day in the heat and we were all so excited to go up on the roof and have a drink and float in the pool, which was one of the main reasons I booked this hotel. Well, we get up here in our bathing suits and they said the pool closed at 7pm! Really?!? The bartender was very sweet and asked her manager and he said “no” that this is the policy! Well I actually work in the hospitality business and I tell you if they are trying to be 5 star, good luck! Btw, no one is even here! The hotel seems empty. Well in all fairness, this is a premature review, hopefully I will redo it with a more fair and balanced one! I’m just annoyed and so is my 18 year old son! Ugh!

Very modern hotel and room. The room was a bit small, but comfort was great. Bathroom and shower were a bit special, the shower was open in the room...so everything wet when you take a shower. When we looked out of the window we saw a staircase. Sometimes a bit noisy from dogs barking outside...but it is Greece. We arrived on the 31st of march and stayed only for a few nights. On Booking we read that the outside pool would open from the 1st of April, the weather was great...but pool was not ready. That was a bit disappointing, but compensated by the manager with a spa treatment. Nice options at breakfast, but few guests, so not enough rotation of the products. The orange juice was fresh, but not always, sometimes with concentrate.

Brand new beautifully executed smart hotel in the heart of Heraklion! A family group of twelve stayed here while traveling to Crete, Paros and Athens and this was a favorite. We only stayed one night but loved our visit. The hotel is modern and classic at the same time with beautiful marble finishes. When our group arrived, we were greeted at reception to sign in on iPads. Afterwards, several of us were upgraded gratis to luxury rooms. It was over hundred degrees in Heraklion so we headed up to the rooftop pool and bar which had a view of the distant sea. It was a perfect way to ride out the heatwave. The AC was superb, the bed amazingly comfortable with crisp clean linens. The shower was huge as was the double vanity sink. There were robes, slippers, a coffee and tea maker, a safe and iron. There was even a small private balcony to hang our wet bathing suits out to dry. It is located within walking distance of the lion fountain with many nearby restaurants and shops. We highly recommend this hotel. And hope to return.

The hotel is located in a quite area at the center of Heraklio, walking distance to the restaurants, cafes and bars . It's a brand new hotel that provides whatever the guest would like to feel comfortable. Very friendly staff, nice clean rooms , very good restaurant , very good breakfast, beautiful spa with heated swimming pool Jacuzzi, sauna and high technology in the rooms since it's the first smart hotel in Crete, the Ethereal Whitel Resort has absolutely everything !

An outstanding hotel, wonderful staff and excellent facilities. The spa is wonderful, a long pool and my wife and so both had a very good massage. Our room was very high tech and very spacious, light and comfortable. Excellent breakfast with a full range of food. Also very good value.

We had a great time at the Bali Star. It is a smaller family run hotel and you really got the impression that the owners and staff actually cared about their guests. The rooms and facilities were well kept and very clean. The pool was a big hit with our kids and we could always find a spare lounger. The breakfast was decent and offered a considerable array of choices which varied slightly over our 8 night stay. The walk to the beach takes just a few minutes where there are a few restaurants and bars. Bali itself is not the most elegant of places from an aesthetic point of view, the the Bali Star was a little oasis of style (as is Club Mambo, ostensibly part of Bali Star - which is located right on the beach).

Nous avons séjourné dans 5 hôtels différents lors de notre séjour en Grèce, et Bali Star était notre dernier hôtel. Nous avions réservé une chambre avec vue sur mer, et nous avons eu l’agréable surprise d’avoir été surclassés dans la meilleure suite de l’établissement. Un énorme merci à Bali Star, nous avons pu terminer notre séjour en beauté. La suite était dotée : d’une sublime terrasse avec piscine privative vue sur mer et deux transats, une deuxième terrasse encore plus grande. Un salon ainsi qu’une suite parentale, deux douches ainsi que deux WC. Le personnel était souriant et agréable, plein d’activités étaient proposées sur place : des activités nautiques, une structure gonflable pour les enfants. Un parking gratuit est mis à disposition des clients. La propreté de l’établissement était irréprochable. Le petit-déjeuner qualitatif et varié. Plusieurs restaurants sont accessibles à proximité, nous avons beaucoup apprécié le restaurant de l’hôtel Mambo. Bali Star offrait de meilleurs prestations qu’un 5 étoiles où nous avions eu l’occasion de séjourner à Athènes. Nous reviendrons à coup sûr, car nous avons eu un coup de cœur pour la suite, qui vaut largement son coût. Les enfants ont pu passer un séjour inoubliable.

Wir waren rundum sehr zufrieden. Das Personal war stets gut gelaunt, sympathisch und zuvorkommend. Die Hotelanlage bot viele Möglichkeiten, war top gepflegt und wir haben jedes Mal direkt am Hotel einen Parkplatz gefunden. Insbesondere für Ausflüge in alle Richtungen, ist das Hotel zentral und praktisch gelegen. Auch im direkten Umfeld des Hotels gibt es alles, was das Herz begehrt. Das Frühstück war vielfältig, frisch und lecker. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist absolut gut und wir können es nur weiterempfehlen.

Mon séjour c’est très bien passer le personnels au petit soin les locaux impeccable propre. les femmes de ménage adorable serviable propre au niveau de la nourriture une variété plus importante serait bien. Par contre beaucoup de famille donc beaucoup de poussette une rampe serait plus agréable plus facile que les escalier . Les serveurs au top

Très bon séjour dans l'hotel Balistar, chambre bien insonorisée et au calme. Hotel bien situé proche de la plage et du village.Personnel efficace, sympathique et à l'écoute. Bonne qualité des plats servis au restaurant.

We spent a week at Olive and Sea Villas and were very pleased with our stay. The photos on the website fully match reality. During our stay, our bed linen was changed once, and the house was cleaned. The pool and outdoor areas were cleaned daily. The villa is well-equipped with everything you might need – great kitchen appliances, smart TV, and comfortable furniture. Cafes, restaurants, shops, and car rentals are all nearby, which makes everything very convenient. There are a few beaches within walking distance, but if you have a car, it’s worth driving 15 minutes to Fodele Beach, a wide sandy beach with free parking, sunbeds twice as cheap as near the villa, and a nice restaurant. A perfect place for a relaxing holiday – highly recommended!

The villa had a very good location. Just a few minutes walk to a shop that had all the groceries you could need. As well as a couple of restaurants and car hire shop. It was about ten minutes walk to the beach and waterfront restaurants. What you see on the pictures is what you get. Good sized pool, great sized rooms, well stocked kitchen, great seating areas. We especially liked that the fridge had and ice machine and drinking water.

Lovley villa with modern facilities, a pool and outdoor space. The rooms are nice and each has its own bathroom. The basement is only accessible from outdoor staircase. The family who own the villa are so helpful, kind and accommodating. Remi was very helpful and friendly. We had a wonderful stay. There are lovely beaches and restaurants nearby.

It’s a wonderful, thoughtfully designed, modern house. Everything you need for a relaxing family holiday is there. We especially enjoyed the sea view, sun raises, patio and pool areas and the kids play area. Hosts are welcoming, friendly and helpful.

Location is perfect, standard is high and the pool is amazing. Owner is quick to answer and super friendly. We were 9 adults in the villa, and that was no problem.

Eleni and Dimitris are the most welcoming, friendly, helpful and surprising hosts I have ever met, we all felt like we knew eachother since forewer. Everyhing was clean and wonderful at Vila Amelie, it’s like a little Paradise, we loved every second of it. The pool is the perfect size and gets cleaned every morning by Dimitris himself, there is many sitting areas, beautiful flowers, trees surrounding you that it can be overwhealing in the best way. There are also a lot of games to play, the kitchen is probably better equipped then my own haha and there is a jacuzzi in the main bathroom. The hosts made our stay unforgetable with little attentions and they can organize birthday parties or aniversaries for an extra cost if you wish that, everything is soo worth it. I never write reviews but this time it was impossible not to. Highly recomand to families or/and friends. If you have any doubts, don’t!!!Go for it, you will not regret it. I hope we will go back some day😍😍😍

We loved everything about our stay at Villa Amelie. The villa and gardens are beautiful and the pool is a good size. There is plenty of space to either gather as a group or find some time and space alone. Several shops including a supermarket, fruit and veg shop and butchers are within a 5 minute walk. Best of all though are the hosts - warmth and friendliness radiate from Eleni and Dimitris and they genuinely care about ensuring you have the best time while staying in their lovely villa.

Villa Amelie is a little paradise! It has a gorgeous, well-kept garden. The pool is a good size and very clean as it is cleaned daily. The villa is equipped with good air conditioning. The rooms have a balcony. There are also various places to eat and relax in the outdoor pond. Everything is clean and well maintained. Eleni and Dimitirios are exceptional hosts. They are always available and supportive if you need anything. Just lovely persons! We had a wonderful time and can recommend Villa Amelie 100%!

The owners Eleni and Dim are wonderful and offered hospitality beyond expectations. The meal they cooked for us was amazing. The villa and outside area are even better than the photos, completely private and very well equipped. We all loved the basketball hoop above the pool! So much fun had with it. WiFi is reasonable both in and outside the villa. The main villa has three double bedrooms, one of which has a mezzanine with an extra single bed. It's worth noting that one of the bedrooms is next to the living area, with one wall being half height then a curtain for privacy. Our teen girls made it work but not complete privacy if three couples were sharing. There are two apartments built under and alongside the main villa, which are not rented out if you rent the main villa but can be included for bigger groups. There is a minimarket, pharmacy, supermarket (well priced), petrol station and butchers all 5 mins walk or less. The village has three tavernas within walking distance, serving traditional Greek and Cretan food. We tried two of them and the meals were delicious. 20 minutes taxi transfer (minivan) from the airport cost us around €70 return. We recommend Kriti Allios (Minoan Fruits) guided tour (find online/TripAdvisor). It's a 25 min walk from the villa and a most enjoyable few hours.

An absolutely incredible stay! The location was perfect, and the property itself was the most stunning we’ve ever seen. Our two hosts were exceptional—helpful, friendly, and genuinely welcoming—making our experience truly unforgettable. Highly recommend!

We loved the Ivy Villa! What a lovely piece of Paradise! The owner met us in town & we followed her to the Villa, she gave us a traditional Greek aperitif & pastry (YUM) along with 3 different local grapes. The Villa is on an orchard, with grapes, pomegranates, lemon & olive trees! We had fresh pomegranate and lemons daily! She also drove us into Heraklion, to show us the town! The accommodations were VERY COMFORTABLE, with couches, dining room, plenty of comfortable outdoor areas to sit, in or out of the sun. The pool was an added bonus to the experience! An outdoor shower as well as beautiful plantings, flowers & bushes, etc. All appliances worked & it was clean with plenty of hot water. It’s in a good location, you need a car, it’s outside the city, but very close to city, museums, sites. We’d definitely stay there again.

There is everything you need 4 bedrooms , a pool , you can cook in the kitchen and also outdoor barbecue … the host is amazing and helped us with everything we need … we even had a yoga instructor … a welcome drink and sweet

We can't say anything but positive things about this Villa, right off the bat the hosts were amazing, they met us at a petrol station to help us find it as its a little secluded. She gave us some traditional greek treats and showed us around the lovely villa. Any questions we had were swiftly answered over chat, over the week, and the suggestions they gave us were amazing to go and visit. The villa itself had everything you need, was well equipped, clean, tidy and modern. It felt like a home away from home. We would come back again and again

Absolutely fascinating villa! Brand new, with all the necessary amenities, nicely equipped, even with handmade furniture, cosy interior and breathtaking outdoor, sparkling clean and very comfortable! Highly recommend!

The villa is super clean, equipped and the hostess is super kind and generous.

I loved our stay in Alexander House hotel. I am 60 and my mum who was with me is 80. I would not recommend this hotel for anyone who has walking difficulties as there are a lot of steps and levels. We really had to pace ourselves but it was well worth it. The staff were all so pleasant and friendly. Plenty of choice for meals. The hotel rooms were cleaned everyday, fresh towels etc. There was some live entertainment on 2 of our 7 nights which we enjoyed. There is also a full time and very pleasant life gua5on duty if you have children and there is a paddling pool anyway. I did not see much else for kids though. We could only get Sky news on the TV. If you are from the UK. But sure you're not going to watch a lit of TV anyway. Great hotel for couples. Beach is a sort walk out the back way, not the front. The front door route is a steep downhill walk and a hard climb back. Plenty of nice bars and restaurants down by the beach if you fancy a change.

Surprising to find this was all inclusive as no mention on the website or during booking. Good choice of food and fresh salad etc. Only down side was due to location there are lots of steps both throughout the site and on most routes to the beach.

very nice place. the staff was great. the food was not so good and also the place could be cleaner

Wow, what an amazing villa. Specious and very well equipped, We enjoyed it very much, would love to come again

Villa is lovely, great views of mountains and sea from large bedroom, balconies and living area. Spyros was super responsive to any issues we had, fixing the air-con remotely within minutes and getting plumbers sent round first thing the next morning for a leaky toilet. Location is great, just 10min drive to supermarket and 15min drive to Heraklion for port/ airport/ beaches/ tourist area. Was a great base to explore North/East Crete.

The villa was a good size with a nice pool. The outside kitchen is a great feature and beds were comfy. The pool table was another plus. Petros, the host, was especially helpful, providing great advice. The privacy, security and covered private parking of the property also superb. A car is essential.

This villa was beautiful. The gardens are well kept and the kitchen in the garden is perfect. It was too cold in April to use the pool but it looked tempting. The villa is located close to the airport but fairly remote and private. Unless you plan to solely stay at the villa you need a car. Pedros the owner (and indeed all the Greek people) were very friendly. Even though we hired a car he met us at the airport so we could follow him to the villa stopping off at the supermarket on the way. We were able to contact him throughout our stay. Midweek he arrived with cakes and a housekeeper changed the bedding etc. There was a lovely welcome pack. The villa is large. The wifi was excellent. There were nice views.

Lovely property. Very spacious with great pool and outside kitchen

Stunning villa with lovely pool area and gorgeous views. The host was so welcoming and the villa was fully stocked with basics and more, very generous of the host and the most yummy mousakka! I haven’t ate another mousakka like it since!! Only 5mins drive to the closest beach

The villa was fantastic, nothing was too much trouble. It had everything we needed. Everything was in fantastic condition. Pool towels changed daily and lovely food left for us to try every couple of days. Could not fault it or the management company.

Wonderful hosts, arrived to a warm welcome and fridge full of food. Totally unexpected and gratefully received. Very clean, modern and fantastic outdoor space.

We traveled as a family: two of us and our 1.5-year-old. The room we stayed in was spacious. The beds were relatively comfortable, and the room was clean and well maintained. The biggest treat was the view. We had a room on the fourth floor with a spectacular view of the bay and the sea beyond. Breakfast was served on the top floor, and the dining area also had a spectacular view of the sea. The breakfast options were some of the best we experienced, including self-made Greek coffee and a self-assembled traditional Cretan meal, a hand juicer to make your own fresh orange juice an loads of other options for food and drinks. In January, the room was a little chilly and slightly humid, and this was an unpleasant combination. But thankfully the heating element worked well enough, and we made it fairly comfortable in the end. The staff were very friendly. There is a small tea/coffee bar on the ground floor which needs to be serviced by the concierge. There is no tea kettle in the room itself! This was probably the only downside for our stay since we would have liked to warm up some of the water for our daughter or had the ability to make tea ourselves. Lastly, there is a laundry business just a few steps away from the hotel. The man who runs the business dropped off our clean laundry at the hotel. So, keep this option in mind as you travel. As a whole, this hotel was excellent. Get a room with a sea view. It is worth it.

Finding the hotel was easy and check-in went by quick. I can’t remember much about the elevator in terms of size, but I do know that my mom and I, alongside each of our carry-on bags, fit just fine. The room was clean and the beds were good. I had no problems with noise and I am a light sleeper. The location of the hotel is very convenient as it is close to harbour and close to the main area of the city. It also close to two bus stations (one being the main bus station). The only small thing that I noticed was that the door that led to the balcony wouldn’t lock. I tried several times, but the lock just wouldn’t latch on. The area also felt safe, which was very important to us since we were two female travellers and we had to check out at around 2:00AM to catch the ferry. Even at that time of night, we didn’t feel unsafe walking around with our luggage. Overall, it was a good stay that is positioned well in the city.

Great location near the marina … walking distance to main shopping area and restaurants etc. Room was fairly small … two single beds put together as a double, reasonably comfortable but not luxurious. Check in/out very easy and reception staff very friendly. The view from the breakfast room over the port was lovely and the breakfast was your normal run of the mill stuff. The hotel was nice. My only complaint really was that it had a Seaview with a small balcony but couldn’t enjoy it because every six minutes or so there was a plane leaving the airport and they’re quite low and noisy. From very early in the morning till well past midnight. Crete must have an incredibly busy, 🤔

We had the room with huge terrace overlooking the harbour which had an amazing view. Shade and sun at all times of day. Great location near to harbour (both for visiting the fortress and for catching the ferry to Santorini!) and walking distance of lots of restaurants. Their own restaurant is only open for breakfast, but there was a lot of choice (buffet style) and even better views from this top floor. We arrived in a rental car but there was nowhere to park until luckily someone vacated a space in the free area on the street; this would have been a pain if we were keeping the car, but actually we had arranged for it to be collected from here.

I chose this hotel as a stopover from the airport before going onto Elounda the next day. I was so impressed. The staff were all lovely and patient as I tried out my Greek. The room was very clean and had everything I needed. It even had a side view of the fortress. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom well-equipped. The breakfast on the top floor was lovely with perfect views. This is a really good-value, friendly hotel. I fully recommend it. Thanks to the staff and Καλό Πάσχα!

As a couple with 1 of us with slight mobility issues, this location was even better than expected. 1 minute and we were on the seafront with bars and restaurants close by. 5 mins walk uphill and we were in the busy centre with shops bars & restaurants. The nearest bus stop for the Hop on Hop off bus that we booked was a couple of minutes away and the Venetian Port area was also walkable. We did decide to take a taxi to the Bus Station for our onward journey, which cost 8€. Rena, who was on reception almost throughout our 3 day visit was beautiful...smiling, welcoming, calm and engaging. We were delighted with our choice of hotel.

The hotel located in a very silent place. Everything was perfect, the bed was really comfy, and our room was cleaned every day. The owner of the hotel was also very friendly and helpful. The central bus station was in 10 minutes walk, and the shops/restaurants were even closer. The breakfast was also delicious, however there were not too many choices but for the price of it I think it worth it.

We chose this place to stay for a few days upon arriving on Crete before venturing out. The hotel was wonderful. Especially the staff's friendliness stood out to us. Just so welcoming. The location of the hotel is in the center, yet it is quiet. Rooms were nice and so was the breakfast. Good all around.

I had to do a late check in. The instructions were very clear and it was lovely to come into a clean room after long flights. The location was close to the airport so I did not have to travel far.

Two minutes from the center of Heraklion city.. in a quite small alley. Perfect location, easy to access, near bus stations for reaching other destinations Clean, not noisy, with an extra small amount you get a wealthy breakfast well valued...

The reception staff was top class! The lady that greeted us was the most genuine and kind person we had ever met on our stay! She definitely put us and the other guests before anything else and we felt so welcomed! I’ve stayed at an endless amount of accommodations over the years all over the world and I have never been greeted with such a welcoming and warm presence. The way my wife and I felt during our entire stay definitely made our trip memorable in itself. We felt this way even before stepping into our room, where we were guided to and our bags were brought up and we were shown around the apartments. The rooms were stunning!!! Definitely our best stay on our vacation by far! And the best stay I’ve every had! Well done to the entire team at City Lion! It was perfect and if you’re planning on staying in Heraklion this is a must! The location is prime and our stay was peaceful and quiet!

The fact that the lovely Chryssa was at the apartment ready to let us in and explain how everything worked. We didn't expect to see anybody. The apartment was so central it was easy to walk everywhere. In spite of this it was a quiet location. The bed was very comfortable and the sofa and seats were reasonably comfortable also. The air conditioning , there were separate ones for the sleeping and living areas,were very easy to operate. Plenty of instant hot water in the shower. The best was the totally unexpected service from Chryssa in reception. She gave us advice on how to get to the places we wanted to visit and booked a taxi for our trip back to the airport. She was always ready to offer advice, assistance and endless amounts of coffee pods. She made the whole trip relaxing and enjoyable as we knew she would sort out any problems we might have. Many thanks Chryssa.

The location was just off a main pedestrian walkway with many shops, services, and restaurants nearby. The staff (9am-10pm) were helpful booking a taxi from the apartment to ferry (8 Euro) and printing off our ferry tickets. They were so kind and willing to do whatever we needed. The taxi from Heraklion airport to the apartment was 18 Euro. The apartment itself is luxurious and beautifully appointed with every thing you need. The living/kitchen/dining is on one level with private bedroom and its ensuite bathroom. There is a balcony off the living/dining area that has a table and chairs, and a walkout balcony from the bedroom (not room rnough for a chair). The stairs are not too steep to the upper level with the second bedroom and ensuite bathroom. There is also a balcony on the second level with lounger and table. There are several small views of the sea which are better from the upper level.

Wonderful little modern apartment. Had everything just as described, and then some surprises I didn't expect like late-night room service for those days we were dead tired after adventuring out. To get in/out of the complex and room you use PIN codes to open an electric lock. At first this kind of put me off as I'd become accustomed to the key system used at other places we'd stayed in Greece. After having used it, IT IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN KEYS. No worrying about leaving the power on, no coordinating who was going to be back at the room first if we were splitting up and had to decide who kept the keys, one less thing in my pocket. It was so nice and something I wish more hotels would do. The location is relatively central? About 7 mins walk to the nearest tourist area. So not bad.

I’ve stayed in this hotel for one night. Probably my best experience in Heraklion so far. I had the chance to be upgraded to an appartement on first floor. The apartment was amazing, modern, nice equipments, 2 balconies, nice bathroom, comfortable bed, great atmosphere. I could have stayed there for days. Young lady (I don’t know her name) at the front desk has been really nice and helpful, 5 stars service, thanks a lot to her. I could leave my luggage in a secured room and enjoy the pool waiting for my flight. Pool area is small, but good enough to relax and chill. Easily accessible by bus. City center is 10/15 minutes away walking. If I ever go to Heraklion, no questions, I will stay there again.

Truly a modern-style accommodation, newly furnished, really comfortable and welcoming. Yet, I rate it as exceptional because of the little things that made my stay special: from the personalised WhatsApp messages with tips and recommendations about places to eat/visit in the area to the hand-written post cards left in the room, and the complimentary bread sticks, coffee and water, and - of course - to the extremely friendly and kind (and speaking excellent English!) staff (in my case that was Sofia) that even updated me about the traffic and local situation after ordering me a taxi upon my departure. Did I mention that they straightaway invite you to leave your luggade with them and enjoy the gym/pool for the whole afternoon after you check out? P.S. Really nice extras are the free parking and the amazing rooftop!

From the warm welcome we received at reception to the amazing penthouse suite our stay was wonderful. We were 4 people travelling together and we loved the layout of the suite as it gave us plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen was well equipped and we were pleasantly surprised that coffee and sugar was supplied. Beds and linens were very comfortable. Bathrooms were gorgeous with very nice shampoos/lotions supplied. Lovely balconies with peekaboo water views but the rooftop deck was panoramic! Pool area was nestled in behind building and was such a great way to end our days.

The apartment is as described, even better than the photos. Check-in with Alexandra was quick and easy. The little details such as coffee, bottle of water and a wine were greatly appreciated. The neighborhood is about a 10- to 15- minute walk into downtown. Coffee shops, markets and restaurants are within a few blocks. We didn't have time to use the pool, but it was clean and inviting. This property --and the staff who run it-- are fantastic. Highly recommend!

Location was excellent, easy walk into the old town. Plenty of stirs and restaurants nearby. The property is contemporary with excellent space very comfortable bed. So enjoyed the pool. Living room is spacious and the kitchen is well equipped. Excellent bathroom with walk in shower! The reception/concierge staff (Maria & Sophie) were so lovely and always with a smile and and spot on with reservations , be it restaurants tours or boats! Gear roof top very comfortable and perfects surrounding views of Crete!

On arrival George picked me up and we chatted and had some ice cream... He's a Gentleman and very helpful along with Tom the cook... Everyone that comes and stays always seems to stay longer than expected because of the beautiful vibe of the place... A stray dog even arrived when I was there and Alex a long term tenant befriended the stray and brought him to the vets and got his hair all cut and is now apart of the family at Georges...Everyone made my stay here amazing and would definitely come back ad I felt so welcomed and apart of the George's family... Plenty of laughter and stories to be told eveyone that comes here is meant to come and experience George's. It really is magical place.. The pool across the road was an extra treat... Thank you everyone at George's for a great extended stay I will definitely come back to see everyone in the future

How can I rate less than 10 for the owner who is now a friend. Not luxury. Bus route from town, shops, and the beach is a 10 minute walk. And a busy road nearby detracts. But in the end had a great time at the St. George. Mostly due to the interesting collection of people staying there and passing through, and the gruff warmth of owner George. Dorms for the best price on Crete. And if you splash out a little, nice clean private rooms to sleep a family, for a price not much more than a dorm bed elsewhere in Crete. I stayed in a dorm. And it was fine. But the rooms might be the best bargain.

i like that They have a very good selection of accomodation, where you can either choose to stay in the dormitory where you can sleep in a bed you can freely choose with great mattress, & sleeping conditions with chargers available as well close to the bed, good air quality in the rooms, & also friendly people there that are also travelers that you can meet along the way:)). I like the price, conditions, availability, & the community surrounding Saint George. This is an absolute hidden treasure in Heraklion, where you can stay with ultra conditions for the cheapest price you will find anywhere in Crete.

I was initially afraid because of the other reviews, but for €20 in Crete, close to the airport in Heraklion, I really couldn’t complain. The host was apologetic for being a few minutes late, then showed me the room, which was clean, had air conditioning, and even a balcony. There’s a shared kitchen and bathroom with other guests, and both were clean as well. It’s not a proper hostel, but it’s a very nice place to spend a night before flying. Great value for that money in Crete!

You can walk to Karteros beach good , or by car or bus go to more far away beautiful beaches or beach bars at nights. I have booked just 2 nights but I stayed till the end of my vacay. Although place is still in improving phase owner and stuff are friendly and extremely helpful. Having breakfast and dinner in garden while chatting with other guests was beautiful experience.

Great service, very good food with BIG portions. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Specially the young woman in the pool bar. So friendly and polite. The room was smaller then it looked like in the picture when we bought the trip. Lovely pool-area.

I can highly recommend Castro hotel in Ammoudara for various types of travellers and purposes of economy type of travelling. You will definitely get the maximum value for a price you pay. Perfect location: hotel is close to the Heraklion city center (airport also), so you can easily reach it by car, by taxi, or by public bus, which will bring you right next to the hotel's door. Hotel has a Beachfront. The beach itself is wide, not crowded, with mesmerizing views. Hotel is surrounded by tavernas, restaurants and mini markets. And I want to add, that the place is absolutely safe and quiet. The Staff makes the hotel even more special: I've never met such a friendly, respectfull and helpfull staff. Here I felt like as if I visited my own friends. BTW, they are fluent in many languages! Accomodation: Rooms are spacey. Rooms have balconies, private bathrooms, wide beds and basically what you might need for your stay. Plus Hotel has a beautiful backyeard with a pool. All in all, I want to say that I had a wonderful experience and I know for sure that I will come back here again.

We arrived early, but our room was already prepared and waiting for us. The personnel was extremly friendly. We had breakfast and dinner payed, and we can not complain about neither the choice, nor the size of the portion (though we both have a very good appetite), so we didn't regret the half-board. The breakfast was buffet, and we could choose a 3-course dinner from a menu. The pool is adapt for both swimming and playing, and there was almost constant supervision, so everybody was toally safe. We could choose from several games (card, pickleball, checkers and billiard- this last one was not for free, though) outside the water, too. The rooms were thoroughly cleaned every day (except Sunday). The sea was close, and the city was easily accessible by bus nr. 1 that stops in front of the hotel.

The rooms were cleaned daily and the sheets and towels were changed every 3 days. Breakfast was diverse and tasty. Dinner was okay for the most part, depends on your tastes but there was something for everybody and the portions were big so chances are that you wouldn't leave dinner hungry. The hosts were very pleasant and the servers and receptionists spoke great English. The pool was also cleaned every day. If anyone likes kittens then you're in luck if you're coming soon because there are five small cats running around the yard.

Clean, quiet hotel with a clean pool and a nice restaurant. Breakfast was standard and dinner was delicious and imaginative. The staff were pleasant and tried to accommodate. The sea is not far away. We went to a more distant beach, where the entrance to the sea was more gradual. We booked a trip to the water park at the hotel. The bus was parked exactly. The perfect thing is that there is a public transport stop in front of the hotel, so you can easily get to the city center and the airport.

beautiful design, high quality finishings. Lovely quiet courtyard pool, gorgeous retractable restaurant roof and convenient amenities in room like a fridge, slippers, espresso machine. we were even offered a free upgrade but chose to keep our small room because it was directly on the pool with sun loungers we in practice made part of our suite.

Manili Boutique is a stunning hotel! It has an old charm but it’s very new with modern facilities and beautifully decorated rooms. The pool area is cosy, clean and comfortable. The staff are truly incredible and will always go the extra mile to meet your needs. A special thanks to Nikos who made our stay wonderful! The bar area is gorgeous and so handy to have on site, there’s live music and cocktails some nights which was brilliant. The location might not be for everyone, but we loved being in a quiet town with a lot of history. The main city is just a 20 minute drive away if you feel like venturing further afield. Cannot wait to come back!

The whole accommodation was seamlessly integrated into several streets in the Archanes village. The room and the whole complex had modern facilities, with a great attention to sustainability, but it also maintained the local vibe, and the typical cretan village architecture. The room was spacious, with big beds and all the facilities. It also had direct exit to one of the pools, which was blended in between the houses. The room had enough light, but also plenty of shade so the temperatures were pleasant without much effort. The breakfast was diverse and the staff was very helpful with all the information. The whole complex adds value to the whole village and makes the visit more authentic.

Cannot praise this place enough. Absolute bliss. We wanted a quiet but luxurious property to chill out for a week and Manili delivered on every front. Comfortable air conditioned rooms with our room opening out onto the pool. Staff were so friendly and accommodating and always so helpful when asking for recommendations. Quiet little village is a couple of minutes walk away with restaurants etc.. so perfect for an easy dinner. Also only 20 mins in a taxi to Heraklion if you want smarter restaurants and bars. Bar has excellent cocktails and drinks selection too. Iced coffee is also delicious. Recommend Boutari Vineyard nearby for a wine tasting too!

We absolutely loved everything about this hotel. It’s truly stunning! The design, the furnishings, the staff, it was all wonderful! The pool area is gorgeous! Such a peaceful place. Our room was small (we knew this when booking), but beautifully appointed. Everything you need for a relaxing stay. If you have large suitcases and lots of clothes with you, choose one on the larger rooms or suites. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious and the Bistro’s vibe, furnishings and food were delightful. Set in a lovely little town, with plenty of great restaurants, a short walk away. We had a great stay and would highly recommend.

The owner came to greet us with a smile after midnight despite our original ETA to the property of 4pm. He shared a plate of grapes and tsipouro. All of the units in this quaint hotel open to the center courtyard and pool. The units are large by Greek standards for the traditional experience (not the 5* catering to those who prefer large resort style properties). Kitchen is sufficient to cook a meal, which could come in handy if the kids want to cool off in the pool at the end of a hot day while dad or mom prep a meal. Decor is warm and within keeping your f the Cretan feel. There is sufficient semi-private seating, and a cafe for breakfast and beverages during the daytime hours. The walk to the town square is 5 minutes where. This mountain village is an underdeveloped gem within 20 minutes of Heraklion. Traditional Greece awaits here!

Got an upgrade bigger room next to the pool….had a salad and a bottle of wine by the pool.. great service

The hotel easily gets an A for Awesome! Once the pool/patio door opens one thing is made absolutely clear to the guest: a lot of love and care has been paid to this facility! Everything is in a beautiful order, nothing is left on luck. A very caring host, an amazing two-room apartment equipped with all a family or couple may need for spending a relaxing stay. Everything is clean, well taken care for, everything works ans everything is comfortable and cosy. The hotel is very close to the village centre which is teeming with local life in an easy going atmosphere. Tavernas, bars, local food shops, supermarkets...all you will ever need. And the village is surrounded by nature! Vineyards, pine forests, mountain hike paths. And the city of Heraklion is just 20 mins away. An ideal place to stay, overall. Cannot wait to visit again! Thank you Vasili, your beautiful hotel has won the hearts of us both! Godbless!

We stayed at Villa Archanes for 2 nights at the end of our holiday. We couldn't have chosen better! The villa is beautiful, very peaceful, and the service we received from Vasilis was first class. There are 6 rooms around the courtyard pool. All are traditional in style but very high spec, immaculately clean and with everything you need for either a short or a longer stay. We didn't pay for breakfast as we had food left over from our stay, but Vasilis provided coffee, biscuits and Greek yoghurt. Our flight didn't leave till late, and he allowed us to stay longer (as the next people were not arriving until late, too) and he also arranged for our bags to be collected to go to the airport, and then we were collected from a local restaurant. Nothing was too much trouble, and we really felt that we had struck gold. We will definitely recommend and return.

We had the pleasure of staying at Villa Archanes for one night, and it was a delightful experience. The villa is beautifully designed in traditional Cretan style, and we truly appreciated every detail in our room. It was cozy and inviting, making us feel right at home. The breakfast was a highlight of our stay—delicious homemade orange juice, eggs, and traditional Cretan products that gave us a true taste of the local cuisine. Although we didn't use the small pool, it looked like a perfect spot to relax. Archanes itself is a wonderful village to explore, offering an authentic experience of Cretan life. We enjoyed mingling with the locals, savoring the food, and immersing ourselves in the culture. If you're looking to experience the real Crete, Villa Archanes is an excellent choice!

The location was great and the host was fantastic and supportive at all times. I would definitely recommend this property. There was a lovely lady next door who had this beautiful friendly cat who had 4 kittens. This was an added bonus waking up to then each day!

The apartment is very close to the city centre. Owners are very nice people Despite hot temperature outside, its chilly inside cos walls are stone and heavy in the building. We even turned off air condition from time to time. Cute little cats are visiting veranda. Lovely place.

Great location short walk into town And the port Access to washing machine was a huge bonus Everything you need in a small apartment The patio was lovely for afternoon drinks

The location is very nice. The whole building is clean and the place is very cosy.

We stayed at Bali Diamond as a couple with another couple of friends, and we all absolutely loved it. It's a small family run hotel, with super friendly helpful staff, especially Eva at reception, and Chrisoula, who created the magnificent daily breakfast banquets. It's very well located for the airports as well as all the points of interest locally. I recommend this hotel very highly. Immaculately clean, well designed, lovely pools and terraces, with a relaxed yet smart atmosphere.

Staff super helpful, breakfasts always different and lots of choice, rooms clean and comfortable as well as a lovely pool area and a beach very close. Lots of restaurants to choose from too

Fantastic hotel- very clean.....ideally located on the beach. Breakfast was fairly extensive and catered for my partner's gluten free requirements. Room had fantastic views over both the beach and pool.

The spaces of the hotel including rooms, common spaces, pool space, bar lounge, balcony. Staff was really friendly and helpful. Goat ice cream and food in overall was perfect!

Pool had a great view of the beach. There are designated beach chairs for the hotel guests. Great location between Chania and Heraklion.

Location is great, 5 min walk to sea side and great 2 restaurants next to the beach . Swimming pool we didn't use but still it is great to have one. Saturday was live Greeke live music with 2 singers in the swimming pool and it was fantastic experience. Rooms are clean and large. Small supermarket is 5 min walk.

Small, modern complex, which was calm and relaxing. Spotlessly clean and beautifully presented. Very welcoming and attentive hosts. Felt like we'd discovered a secret spot! The addition of the pool bar meant we could laze around the area during the day, when it was too windy for the beach. Great bus link from near Heraklion bus station (number 6) made it easy to get to. There were many places to eat and shop nearby. Thank you to our wonderful hosts.

Waz everything excellent. The room waz with swimming pool wiew The staff waz ready for anything and very polite. The cleanliness and quietness waz wonderful . Best regards from Albania It will be pleasure for me to go again next month.

Is closed to the beach, is a zone for windsurf area. Music in the pool area till late in the night, if you like to party.

We loved staying here! The location was perfect walking distance to the beach, nearby mountain hikes, shopping, restaurants/cafes, bus station and more. The host was extremely easy going and friendly and helpful. He went above and beyond what most property managers/hosts do and we really enjoyed seeing him every day. The room had a little kitchenette that we used throughout our stay and had little romantic meals on our balcony in the morning and sunset. The shower was immaculate, amazing pressure and temps. The room was super clean and it really felt like a home by the time we left. Highly recommend this property.

An absolutely outstanding apartment. Very clean and perfectly equipped. The owner, Vaggelis was also amazing - aside from putting himself at our disposal every single moment he also provided some tips on where to eat and where to visit - these tips proved to be of tremendous help. Aside from everything, he also allowed us to stay over the checkout time as we wanted ro go to the beach and we had a late plane. Overall it was just perfect - thank you Vaggelis for your outstanding hospitality, for sure we will come here again and we will recommend the little kingdom to all of our friends who will visit Heraklion!

The apartment looked even better then in the photos, also very clean. Dedicated parking in the front in the shade which was amazing, balcony was very nice too. The hosts were probably the best thing about the whole experience, warmhearted and welcoming, they were always there when we needed anything, and also went out of their way to give us local reccomendations. 10/10 , best value for money.

It is a lovely place, very comfortable, with everything a guest could possibly need. Perfect location, easy walking distance to the center of town but far enough to be quiet and calm.

Spotlessly clean. Nice little balcony and parking under apartment. Host was very helpful with advice on local attractions and eateries. Beautiful island to explore and still relatively cheap to eat out.

Very sweet apartment. About 15 mins walk to center. Host was friendly and kind, he told us where to go and what to see. I recommend this place.

Our recent stay at Laia Seafront Luxury Apartments in Agia Pelagia was exceptional. From the unbeatable location to the impeccable service and breathtaking views, our experience here was truly unforgettable. Our accommodation was a testament to luxury and cleanliness. The rooms were spotless, and the daily housekeeping ensured we always returned to a pristine living space. The small kitchenette equipped with a fridge was a thoughtful addition, allowing us to prepare our meals when we preferred a quiet night. The spaciousness of the apartment was also a pleasant surprise, providing ample room to relax and unwind. If you're a fan of stunning Mediterranean vistas, this place is a dream come true. The balcony offered panoramic views of the sea that left us spellbound. From sunrise to sunset, we found ourselves captivated by the beauty of the azure waters and the gentle lull of the waves. It was like having a slice of paradise right outside our door. Laia, our hostess, was a true gem. She was always just a message or call away, ready to assist with any questions or requests we had. Her warm and welcoming demeanour added an extra layer of comfort to our stay.

My husband and my children stayed for 4 days. We all relaxed and were able to enjoy each one in our own style. Laia's house is fantastic and very suitable for families. Every detail of the apartments and the garden is designed so that guests can rest and enjoy their stay in Agia Pelagia. The apartment really is luxurious, with cleaning service, towels, kitchen, renovated shower, very comfortable beds, air conditioning and the best sea view you could wish for. It is so close to the sea that you can hear the sound of the waves from the main bed. Laia is great, friendly and very attentive. She cares about her guests and is an excellent host. Agia Pelagia is located 30 minutes from Heraklion where you can buy groceries if you want to cook but Laias Apartments is located next to different restaurants with very good typical Greek food and also international food such as pizza, pasta, hamburgers. The best of all was enjoying Laia's garden under the shade of an umbrella and sleeping listening to the sound of the sea.

This apartment has everything you could ever need! It was clean, modern and comfortable. The balcony overlooking the sea is spacious and has an absolutely magnificent view. Moreover, there is a space on the ground level with many private deck chairs and tables for guests at Laia's apartments to hang out only steps from the beach. This apartment really has everything you could ever need for a fantastic trip to Crete. I am confident that any guest will have a wonderful experience staying there! And perhaps most importantly, Laia and her family are incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful. You will feel like you are right at home in Agia Pelagia! :)

The owner, Laia, was extremely helpful finding a doctor for my wife who was suffering from back pain. She also had her cleaning woman wash our clothes and hang them to dry, sparing us from having to drive into Heraklion to wash our clothes ourselves. Her apartments are simply, but very tastefully decorated. The bed was comfortable. The shower was very modern. The location near the Agia Pelagia parking is ver convenient. And the village of Agia Pelagia is much more charming than the beach resorts closer to Heraklion. It has many inexpensive, vut very good tavernas. (We ate at Zorbas and Alchemist.) Also, the price was very reasonable.

The location was perfect, and the host was absolutely superb: extremely warm, helpful, friendly and welcoming - she is a lovely person. The room was larger than we had expected, with very good kitchen facilities, comfortable furniture and lovely views; spotlessly clean, too. The access to the beach could literally not have been better - the best ever, honestly - and the whole area was wonderful, with numerous superb dining options. Free parking was also always easily available just a few metres away, We would not hesitate to go back and are very much looking forward to our next stay.

What a gem! THE place to stay in Heraklion! My children are already asking to go back for another stay. The owner, Stratos, couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating. He even flexed to help us with my request for a 6am check in, agreeing to store our bags until our room was ready. Accommodation was spotless, recently refurbished, and centrally located. He gave us some coffee and tea, nut bars and toiletries, as well as some souvenir Raki given as a memento. Accommodation was equipped with excellent Wi-Fi, Netflix, coffee maker, washing machine and crockery. Couldn’t ask for more. We stayed in suite 6 and the owner provided a comprehensive guide to Crete, with QR codes linked to Google maps to help us navigate. Its a real find and I would strongly recommend a stay.

Wir hatten eine wirklich tolle Zeit hier, das Appartment war sehr gepflegt und sauber und hatte an Ausstattung alles drin, was man so zum Kochen, Waschen etc. brauchte. Auch die Kommunikation mit dem Besitzer hat super einfach und schnell geklappt und wir bekamen bei der Begrüßung gleich eine kurze Einführung und Tipps für den Aufenthalt. Das einzige was vielleicht aufzuführen wäre, sind das Schlafsofa und die Betten, die recht hart und unbequem waren und man erst eine gewissen Zeit brauchte, um sich daran zu gewöhnen. Ansonsten war aber alles top!

The aparment was full equip, the host has a really nice detail and us some welcoming food for breakfast, as well as a bottle of raki as a present. The neighborhood was really quiet and close to the center, ideal for relax and turism. We would like to stand out the kindness of our host. We had a problem (we forgot important things in room) and he fastly managed to send it back to our next destination.

The best warming welcome. The host Stratos is such amazing person and help us in everything we needed. The house perfectly clean and in perfect conditions.All the furnitures new and fully equipped. The place is 10m walking to the Center of the city, quiet and safe neighborhood. Thank you so much to Stratos for making us feeling really welcome. Surely a choice to make again.

The Host is amazing! we had a very late arriving ( 2 am) and he waited for us without any complaints The apartment is cosy and functional, you can cook or even do your laundry! He gave us water and some snacks for breakfast. I couldn't ask for more) THE apartment is located in 10 minutes from the centre of the city; easy walkable distance

The apartment was in a perfect location, near the city center, bus stops and the beach. The owner was super helpful all throughout our stay. Even tho when we stayed there, there was some construction happening in the area, the windows were perfectly soundproof which was just perfect. The kitchen is perfectly furnished as well as the bathroom. It was just what we needed for our stay in Crete.

The combination of price and quality exceeded my expectations. Very stylish design and convenient location, but what impressed me even more was the fact that it’s an 18th-century cave building. The host was very kind and caring—she met us at the parking area and walked us to the villa. I truly recommend this place. Nice place with good view.

Nice and fresh refurbished apartment. The building where is located is old same as the surroundings. Once you are in, the condo is awesome. If you are self driving, I recommend set up the gps to find fontana puri. My gps could not find the address as it is a very tiny road where car are not allowed

The place is really nicely furnished and super clean. The apartment is very bright and pleasant to stay in, plus ideal location next to town center. The host is very kind, available and helpful, you can talk to him any time and he is quick to respond when you send a message.

Big, spacious, everything under the sun you could possibly need and more. Great quality linen & Kitchen & bathroom fully equipped!!! Netflix, youtube ect. Balcony. Very impressed.

The appartement is big, light and clean. The little balcony is on the market, literally. Once inside the building, yiu have to climb up a lot of stairs. It's not too bad. To get into the property you have to get into a shop first, which is just pretty, I loved it. The owner of the apartment is very responsive, he looks after is guests constantly, sending messages to check on them. In the kitchen there is al the necessary to prepare a meal, whatever you would fancy. The flat is very hot and AC helps a lot. The owner of the shop is a friendly middle aged man who suggested us where to go for dinner and which beaches to visit. We had long conversations about anything. Parking: if you've got a car, there are plenty private parking places with reasonable prices but, if you want to spare some money, look around, you're gonna find a free parking spot. In one week we spent only 5€ in total. I would highly recommend this place to anyone

The apartment is located at the heart of the center and we could find restaurants, bars, clothing stores and souvenir shops in less than a minute next to us. The location is perfect! The host, mr Iraklis, is kind and helpful! We arrived early and let us leave our luggages there until the apartment was ready and the same thing happened at the day of our departure. We had a late flight and he also let us leave our luggages ! That was really kind of him and saved us from a lot of trouble of carrying our suitcases everywhere! He also welcomed us with some delights of Crete especially the " lichnarakia" were our favourites! It was a great stay and we hope to come back again!

The location was excellent. The apartment is near to the main eating and shopping areas in Heraklion. It is an easy walk to the harbor, several museums and local transportation. Very cool and local neighborhood on the side streets (fish market, produce stalls and a grocery store, etc). I very much appreciated that the owner Iraklis was so attentive and kind. He checked in to make sure I got into the apartment. He also provided some excellent suggestions for places to eat. The apartment is very clean, welcoming and comfortable. Good air conditioning and a really great shower. It was very relaxing to sit on the terrace and enjoy the evening. I would highly recommend Kliklis Apartment if you are traveling to Heraklion.

The apartment has an excellent location in the city center from where you can easily reach any city attraction or surroundings. It is clean and cozy, well equipped and the host is very welcoming and will offer very good communication for everything you need during your stay. I had a wonderful time here and a very pleasant holidays in Crete. Thank you, Iraklis, for your warm and good communication! I definetly recommend the apartment as a great choice to stay and connect to the Cretan vibe.

The perfect little place from which to explore Heraklion. The apartment is right in the centre of town, meaning all the main attractions as well as a plethora of shops, cafes and restaurants are easily.accessible. The bedroom has lovely large windows, and the balcony is perfect for people watching. Iraklis is very attentive, and even gave a small gift at the end of my stay. Can't recommend enough!

I can't recommend Pennystella Apartments enough. Our stay there really was almost perfect. Wonderful owners and staff, great food, lovely pool and super apartments. Such a joy to wake up every morning with the view of Agia Pelagia bay, have a dip in the pool then either have a lazy day by the pool or head out to enjoy Crete. The apartments were great. Big, clean and airy; comfortable bed, well equipped and nice bathroom. Easy walk to Agia Pelagia or Ligaria beaches. Supermarket nearby. Parking opposite.

The Pennystella is a family run hotel and you can really feel a family welcome. The hosts are always available with helpful advice and recommendations. We regularly returned to the hotel's restaurant as the food was delicious and home made. The views from our studio and from the swimming pool area are magnificent. You're only 15 mins walk (walking slowly) from the beach where we enjoyed daily and nightly swims. We highly recommend Pennystella and Agia Pelagia: we had a wonderful family holiday! We will certainly return.

Exceptional family-run hotel with a nice view of the sea. Spacious and well-equipped room. Calm location with an unobstructed view over the sea. Swimming pool, Greek food, parking lot, easy access from highway. A very uncomplicated hotel. And the great hospitality of the owners and the staff makes the stay a perfect relaxing time, while being able to be in touch with the Greek culture.

Beautiful location with a lovely swimming pool where the view overlooks the sea and Agia Pelagia below. Stella, Nikolas and family were always very friendly and helpful. Nice home cooked food and bar available on site. 2 beaches within a 5 and 10 minute walk. We had an amazing time at Pennystella Apartments.

very welcoming hosts who took great care of us. The hotel is close to the beaches, the city and the airport. The room is spacious, with a kitchenette, a bath, a balcony and a great view of the sea and mountains. Very nice pool and great restaurant. I highly recommend!
