Swim-up Rooms & Private Pools in Platanias

Private pool, amazing mango daiquiri’s at the bar

Loved the private pool in the luxury suite together with the private terrace. Breakfast was excellent with plenty of choice for hot or cold. Room was lovely but had one or two niggles that could be attended to by regular maintenance.

Everything was great we had the mezzanine suit, very comfortable but the private pool water was very cold. The sea was a much better choice for swimming. There is no seating area at the beach. It is a nature reserve.

Room was amazing, we had a private pool. Very comfortable and spacious.

We were upgraded to a room with a private pool so that was excellent. The room was spacious, comfortable and very well equipped. There was a large private terrace with chairs and sunloungers. The sea view was a bonus.

A wonderful hotel with very helpful, friendly staff. The food at both breakfast and dinner is delicious, with a wide choice. Plenty of sun loungers by the pool and on the beach. There are music programmes at the pool in the evenings. We rented a private pool room which was absolutely worth it, very pleasant after a hot day. Everything was perfect.

Beautiful relaxing hotel. From the minute you arrive your given a special welcome. Rooms are well equipped, modern and spotless, as is everywhere in the hotel and all the grounds. We had a swim up pool but also enjoyed the main pool and beach. Plenty of sunbeds around pool and on the beach. Food was excellent and always had a varied choice. Staff in restaurant really friendly as were all the staff where ever you went. They all were genuinely so happy to help as was the manager who was always visible and there for both guests and staff. Such a happy team makes a very happy stay. Grounds were kept beautifully as was the pool area. Good location for trips out to see the island which is beautiful. There is a bus stop right outside the hotel, so couldn't be anymore convenient. Thank you to all the staff that made our stay so wonderful. We needed a relaxing break and got that and more. See you all again next year.

Just returned after 7 nights B&B at this wonderful resort and can’t recommend enough… Travelled with friends as well and we were upgraded complimentary to a swim up room upon check-in - a fantastic start ☺️ All facilities are top class including service in all aspects. Breakfast fantastic as well - high quality and presentation every morning. The resort is located approx 5-8 min from Platanias which easily can be reached via bus stop just outside main entrance (EUR 2 / person each way) or Taxi (EUR 12 each way) One of the last days one of our friends had a medical issue which was handled top professional by the staff and management - THANK YOU once again 👍👍 We will definitely come back and book Myrion Resort next time we choose Chania as destination and can only recommend you to do the same - Don’t hesitate one second ! PS: Sign up to become a member of Myrions customer club - it’s free and gives you a decent discount on rooms - Discount on spa treatments and return transfer to and from Chania Airport.

This was my fifth trip to Crete, and Myrion Beach & Spa Hotel truly exceeded all expectations! The atmosphere was serene, and the hotel’s beautiful low-rise, modern design retained an authentic Greek/Cretan charm. We stayed in a split-level junior suite that was immaculate and well-designed. The large infinity pool was a highlight, with a great mix of Ibiza chill-out tunes during the day and funky jazz in the evening, creating the perfect vibe. The poolside DJ sets were subtle and added to the relaxing ambiance. Dining was a standout, especially at the Greek à la carte restaurant, where both the food and evening music were superb. The electric violinist with a blend of classical and dance music made for memorable entertainment. The staff were wonderful—special thanks to Elena at reception, Despina the pool lifeguard, Theodora at the restaurant, and the many lovely Maria’s who made our stay so welcoming. Overall, Myrion Beach & Spa Hotel offered a luxurious, relaxing experience with top-tier service and stunning facilities. I will definitely be returning!

From the moment we checked in it was brilliant , we were offered water / Prosecco while also being given a quick tour of the hotel while our bags were loaded onto a golf buggy to be transferred to our room . This hotel was booked as part of my partners birthday present and we got an upgraded to a split level junior suite with pool / sea view which was unbelievable!!! The breakfast is excellent and the sun longer situation is the best I’ve had at a hotel no matter what time you go to the pool there are always free loungers . The outdoor gym has everything you need and the pool bar in the evening is bliss . The only downside is the busses but that’s not on the hotel these seem to turn up whenever they want and can have you waiting a while . The best hotel we have stayed in and will definitely be back!!!!

The pools were very clean and perfect for kids with different depths for all ages. The pool bars played great music and the drinks were delicious. The buffet breakfast was also good. The location is wonderful with many walkable restaurants and super markets and just a short bus ride to Chania.

Lovely clean pools, well kept gardens! Nice family apartment. Nice breakfast buffet. Friendly staff.

All I can say about this hotel is that it exceeded my expectations. Rooms are very comfy and exceptionally clean. The main areas are also very well kept. Pools are quite large and clean! As for the breakfast, not much to say except that it is top with a large variety of food to satisfy everyone's tastes and cravings. From a basic buffet breakfast to specialities such as doughnuts, pancakes and more! And last but not least, I cannot finish this review without praising and thanking the whole team who runs this hotel and made our stay a real pleasure and a memorable one!! I do not remember all the names however I want to thank the reception staff: Sofia, Eva & Petrus for your help and warm welcome, Stella and her staff at the restaurant, the persons who clean the hotel in general and cleaned our room, bar attendants and last but not least Jimmy the barman who is a giant in his role, so very friendly and a great barman!! He is truly one of a kind!! Thumbs up to all of you great people at this hotel! Words cannot thank you enough for making our stay one to remember forever!

Really good location. A stones throw from the very nice beach and plenty of restaurants nearby. The hotel facilities were as expected. Breakfast got busy (as you would expect given the time of year) but the staff did manage to keep on top of keeping the buffet options populated. If anything did run out they we quick to replace it when asked. We only used the front pool and found that to be large enough to accommodate the guests. It did get a little busy at times but there was still space to have a small swim or play games with family. The apartment we were initially given was not what we expected but after speaking to reception they happily gave us a different apartment after one night, when it became available. The new apartment was very good and plenty big enough for a family of 4, including two teenagers.

Overall value for money was excellent. We take breakfast only. Ordered the car rent trough the hotel for reasonable price and also were able to leave the car at another hotel (we split the vacation). The prices in the pool bar are ok. We were in bars nearby, the cocktails were even more expensive there. The room was clean and big, a lot of space. The breakfast was basic but very good, including fruits and vegetables.

staff, courtesy and kind, beyond expectations accommodation was excellent (room with private pool on the top of hotel) tranquility that surrounds you in hotel

- room was wonderful, spacious and well decorated - bed was extremely comfortable and large - staff were excellent, special thanks to Karyna at reception who was super helpful for suggestions and information as well as the breakfast team who were always on hand - delicious breakfast, lots to choose from (we loved the yogurt as well as the traditional Cretan pastries) - our private terrace and plunge pool was amazing, we spent most of our time relaxing up there

Recently renovated and so the whole property was clean, smart and very nicely decorated The breakfasts were great! Lots of options and all of them tasty and well prepared Our room was amazing, Premium Suite with outdoor plunge pool. Big and spacious with our own terrace Staff was amazing. Friendly and super helpful

We had the pleasure of staying 4 nights at Inea Sole in August, and it was truly an exceptional experience from start to finish. It was the perfect destination for a relaxing and romantic getaway. Upon arrival, we were immediately struck by the peaceful and sophisticated atmosphere. All the staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, making us feel right at home. Our room was a true sanctuary. The premium suite was spacious and beautifully appointed. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the luxurious amenities, like the huge bathroom with the big rainfall shower, added an extra touch of indulgence. There was a very big private balcony with outdoor lounge set and sunbeds and an amazing private pool! The culinary experience was just as impressive. The restaurant area again very clean and tidy, with a la carte breakfast with plenty of choice, very tasty, well presented, completely faultless. The environment was peaceful and never felt crowded, allowing for genuine relaxation. Overall, our stay at this hotel exceeded all expectations. It is a hidden gem that offers a perfect blend of luxury, privacy, and impeccable service. We left feeling completely refreshed and rejuvenated. I highly recommend this hotel to any couple looking for a truly special and memorable escape.

We had a wonderful stay at this relatively new hotel. The staff were incredibly accommodating throughout our visit. Breakfast is served à la carte, and you’re welcome to order multiple items from the menu - a thoughtful approach that ensures quality while minimising waste. The pool area is a highlight, with a good-sized swimming space, comfortable loungers around the edge, and even two loungers built into the pool itself. The cold towels handed out daily by the pool were well received! There’s also a small gym available, which was a nice added bonus. A lovely touch was the complimentary bottle of wine waiting in our room upon arrival (thanks!). Our room felt more like a suite, with a separate living area, hallway, bedroom, and bathroom. The spacious patio was perfect for relaxing or drying clothes after a swim. The location is great too, just a short walk to the beach, which can get a bit busy, but it’s convenient. While we didn’t explore the immediate area much, we enjoyed venturing out to nearby regions (via taxi) when we weren’t by the pool. All in all, a fantastic stay with lots of thoughtful details that made a real difference. Highly recommend.

Staff were incredible. Room was a great size, private plunge pool was incredible.

Outstanding breakfast buffet with tables indoors and outdoors for choice. Wide range of foods that seemed to suit most guests and early breakfast for those setting off early for a Gorge walk or the airport. Plenty of pools to choose from but needed more accessible showers for guests to wash off sun cream before a swim. Sunbeds were a decent height. Pool towels available from 1000 - 1800. Choice of grass or hard standing areas. Access to pool bar / Italian restaurant one side of the complex and the other Imperial side had pool and beach - again with restaurants. Lift down to WC on this site. Bar staff came round with orders of freddo cappuccino / beer/ fruit drinks as ordered from the QR code on the parasol. On site parking available. Staff everywhere were amazing. Musical entertainment each evening and themed buffets. On site mini shop.

Wanted to leave a review before the sadness of coming home kicked in. The hotel is very nice, the dinner for half board is excellent and highly recommend. Never ate so well. The room with a private swimming pool is a lovely feature and thank you so much for upgrading us - but the absolute winner are the people. The staff could not be any more welcoming and hospitable. No problem or issue is not met with excellent service. They were the most polite and friendly (and very well presented) staff I’ve ever seen at a hotel. Our cleaner was delightful. I actually learned the names of the staff because they were so friendly. They taught me some Greek! Special mention to all the very helpful women on front desk. To the waiters Ilias and Marios. Even the lifeguards were super friendly, relaxed and wanted to chat. The rooms are spotlessly clean and if you want a great one I recommend staying in 720 which is in the new complex (Imperial) by the quieter pool. I would recommend this for a couple or an older family. I think kids 3-9 might find it a bit boring as no kids club or games room but there is plenty for them to do on the strip nearby like mini golf etc. They have good parking and close to chania. The beach is right on terrace with breakfast. Fantastic. I may very well come again even though they say never to try and go on the same wonderful holiday twice.

We enjoyed the room, the staff, the location, the swimmingpools, the beach, and much more. The staff were very friendly, and Zoe especially deserves to be mentioned. It's a clean hotel, with lots of options when It comes to food, pools, and activities. You can step right out on to the beach. We recommend eating dinner at the restaurant Galazio, where we also reseved a free breakfast (set menu). Worth mentioning: During high season you need to book a table If you are to eat at any of the popular restaurants In the town. I would like It If the pool time was longer (10-18), but It probably keeps the hotel more calm during the evenings. Minoa Palace Resort deserves a visit!

I enjoyed Minoa Palace..great breakfast, clean surroundings felt safe as 24/7 reception..very important as we drove 2hrs from Hraklion airport. Andreas at reception checked us in and out..pleasant experience always with a smile. There was parking for a loan car at no extra cost. Pool is AMAZING and pool staff attentive. Breakfast buffet caters for all tastes..felt full till dinner.

Went with a friend and booked the room with the private pool . So glad we did, we felt very posh. We were celebrating our big birthdays. Hotel was amazing and food excellent.

The property is absolutely fantastic. Location is superb. Facilities are great. Great breakfast, variety of Lunch, snacks and wonderful dinner every day. We were on All Inclusive, so we didn’t need anything else regarding food and drinks. We had 2 rooms, one of them with a private pool and it was really beautiful. Rooms are very spacious and with all the necessities required. Both rooms were equipped with a small kitchenette a living room which we had a sofa bed in, separate bedroom and a bathroom . Shower was very spacious and comfortable. The room with the private pool was also with snacks, wine, beer, soft drinks etc. The private beach and the beach is really nice. The people from the reception are really helpful . They suggested us with excursions which we really enjoyed

Everything. The rooms were better than photos and very clean and spacious. The pools were lovely and big, lots of sun loungers at both pools. The food was fantastic. It was in a good area close to everything you need

Very nice beach just few steps from the bar / dining area, swimming pool nice and warm. Food was just fantastic, the staff was very kind and polite. Clean rooms and hotel, our view from the terrace was really nice. We really enjoyed our stay, kids enjoyed the sea, the pool and everything - there was even a little snorkelling shore with lots of fishes. Thank you!

We stayed there for a night but what can I tell about this hotel !! Location ? Amazing . Staff always smiling and willing to help. Restaurant and pools were clean and quite comfortable! What impressed us the most was the stuff at the bar during the night! Stratos and Yiannos if I spell them names correctly! Stratos with his intelligent sense of humor was not only there to give us the drink but to have a small talk with us every time we wanted to with a huge smile on his face !! Special thanks to this guy for making our night there and recommending some amazing places to visit in chania !! Yiannos as well was very efficient and quite fast on picking up the empty glasses from our table ! We definitely recommend this hotel and looking forward to come back !!

Wonderful hotel, they are special people, the hotel is well maintanade, expecially the suite with the private pool on the roof, simply amazing !!

The staff were very nice and professional. As it was my birthday the staff left a bottle of wine and a birthday card in my room which was very very sweet and appreciated a lot. The pool facilities are absolutely exceptional - a large main pool, a smaller warm pool and a jacuzzi surrounded by a beautifully landscaped garden. 10 minutes from the beach, 5 minutes from the bus stop to chania town and all surrounding beaches. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks and drinks all available from the restaurant/bar throughout the day and everything I ordered was delicious! We also had a late flight home and even though we checked out at half 10 in the morning we were allowed use the pool and facilities for the rest of the day which was very kind. Couldn't have picked a better hotel!

Everything was great, the staff was very, very kind and willing to help. The pool was very clean and the surrounding of the pool was so perfect and cozy, it creates the perfect place to relax. the food at breakfast was delicious and diversified, i think that it would fulfill everyone needs and taste. The room was clean, they did everything to make us feel good and our vacation was perfect because of their hospitality! The place is near the bus station, 10 minutes of walking to the beach, and 10 minutes of driving from Chania old town. For us it was perfect because in the city centre it would have been to crowded and noisy.

Great adults hotel, amazing breakfast, absolutely clean, amazing garden with beautiful trees and bushes. Very relaxing pool spot. The room we had was pool view with a separated bedroom and living room and great size of a balcony. We also tried the restaurant for dinner, the dishes were great size and absolutely tasty, our server was very polite and made our experience amazing. 10 out of 10 for a couples vacation on Crete

We liked everything: the location of the property was ideal, our suite with a private swimming pool was very comfortable, the view from the pool was amazing, the people working in the resort (reception, restaurant, cleaning lady, the owners) very friendly and helpful, breakfast high quality. We met some guests coming back in this resort for more than 20 years. We plan to return as well.

We booked the swim up room (128) and found that the sun was on our terrace from midday until 8pm which we loved. Other swim up rooms were in the shade from early afternoon. The quietness and fact that we were away from the main pool was also a bonus.

Fantastic property with quick access to an excellent beach! 20 minute cab ride to Old Town. No need to spend extra money on the swim up room, you're 2 minute walk from an excellent beach. Great dining options at the property. Great gym, fantastic pool. Excellent staff.

This resort is incredible! It's beautiful, on the beach, in a great location, & the breakfast was amazing!! The buffet was huge with so many selections. The spa & pool area were wonderful, you really felt like you're on vacation with things such as a swim up bar, chairs on the beach and 2 pools to choose from. Our room had a balcony overlooking the pool and beach. The staff were so friendly, especially the swim up pool bartender. The upper outdoor lounge had music and places to sit, watch the sunset & enjoy apps and drinks. I highly recommend staying at this resort!!

The hotel is beachfront and literally just a few steps away from the beach. The pool was incredible with plenty of sun-beds for all the guest. Great swim up bar and food available for purchase. The room I had with the whirlpool jacuzzi was incredible and beyond my expectations. I never wanted to leave the hotel because it was so beautiful, clean and welcoming. By far the best part was the buffet breakfast which served an assortment of foods to fit everyone’s tastes including champagne, fresh omelet stations cooked to perfection, Cretan specialties, charcuterie line ups etc.

A very nice hotel that is clean and modern. We were lucky enough to be upgraded to a swim up room by the fresh water pool, this was a great experience which provided freedom and privacy all in one place. The food was great and the a la carte restaurants gave good variety. Being right on the beach also adds to the luxury.

A hotel with excellent staff and location, nice pool (split with a separate part for smaller kids) and a direct access to the beach. Both the staff in the reception and pool / beach bar are super friendly and helpful. The pool / beach bar offers good salads, pizza, club sandwiches etc. for a quick lunch and there are loads of good restaurants in a walking distance (specially if you go towards Platanias). Everything at the hotel was well kept and clean. Yeah, sure the kitchen in the room might do good with some more equipment, but if you are not planning to cook big dinners in your room, but instead looking to enjoy your holiday on the beach or the pool with or without kids in a relaxing, safe and friendly environment, this is the correct choice.

Hotel is very nice in a great location with a lots of restaurants, bars, shops etc nearby. Pool was nice, though it was quite cold, but we were there in October right before they were closing for a winter so it is understandable. Staff in hotel was very nice, both in reception and the pool guys were great :-) Cleaning was done daily (wow!), we never experienced such a thing before and we would be happy with cleaning once every 2 or 3 days :-) We had breakfast only once, it was good, but our children didn't like it so we prefered to do our shopping or eat outside. Beach was nice with a lot of sunbeds in a shade so this is a huge plus. From this area you can go to a lot of trips to a nearby historical cities, beaches, shrines, olive plantations etc etc. so definitely hire a car and enjoy beauties of west Crete!

Hotel offers a perfect combination of proximity to beach and relaxation (No loud restaurants next door). Pool area is also much nicer than in photos, meaning grass and trees are closer, you don’t get the feeling of being surrounded by concrete. Most of pool is quite deep, so you can swim around too. You have the option to lounge by the beach or take a shaded chair under the trees with grass around or you can just stroll 20 more steps to reach the sandy beach area with more loungers and umbrellas which you can enjoy all day for price of a coffee or more you wish to order from bar. We walked along Agia Marina further up and sections can be more pebbly (even found a stretch with seaweed). So beachfront of Eden Beach Hotel is positively clean, sandy and welcoming. Rooms get cleaned every day. Very friendly and chill bar staff and receptionist.

I got a very clean apartment with 2 bedrooms and 2 balconies and seeview. Room service was everyday but it was too often for me. The hotel should provide door cards with information whether service is needed or not on a given day. The kitchen was well equipped even with a citrus squeezer. Besides the location was awsome. Few steps from sandy beach. Free sunbeds near the pool for hotel guests and while the sunbeds on the beach are free if you buy something at the bar. The bar service was great and friendly. All the hotel staff were great. Nice pool but all the time was occupieted by loud kids and their loud mothers. There are many supermarkets in the neightbourhood. The hotel also has a private parking. It’s important if you travel by car because there is no space at the main street to leave the car.

The owner as well as the staff were very nice, willing to help and advise. The apartment was simply and efficiently furnished and equipped, clean, with a nice terrace overlooking the sea and the pool, with a daily cleaning service and a regular change of towels and bed linen. The location was excellent, right on the beach, with a pool, but a few steps from the corso. A beach with free sunbets and a pleasant restaurant and many other restaurants and beach bars. The beach is excellent, sandy, with a gradual entrance to the sea, sandy bottom, suitable for families with children. In short, an excellent vacation. If someone is a fan of cooking on vacation, the apartments generally do not provide the comfort, a vacation in Crete is about a good dinner in local restaurants and taverns, enjoying the atmosphere of the place.

Everything was just right, the facilities and spa were excellent, the room and private pool a really relaxing space, and then staff from the beach to the restaurant friendly and attentive.

Beachside bliss - personal plunge pool with breathtaking sea views resulted in a ten day faultless break

The best resort that we could have asked for. This was a dream vacation in a dream property. The property’s beach and pool accommodations made for some relaxing days. The concierge staff greeted us with kindness and went out of their way to make our trip memorable. Everything from our room (complete with a plunge pool and beach view) to the breakfast buffet exceeded our expectations. Would give this a 10/10.

This was my favorite hotel I’ve ever stayed at. The service was impeccable and my room which had a plunge pool and sea view was heavenly. They spruce it up 3 x a day. The food is excellent, the bartenders make perfect cocktails and between the beach chairs and two pools, I didn’t want to leave. I’ll dream of returning one day.

Just left this beautiful hotel this morning after spend a week there. Such a Luxurious place with some of the nicest people I have ever met! The breakfast is outstanding, especially the homemade omelettes! The rooms are large and beautiful with a huge patio, including a plunge pool. Special hello and thank you to Nikos at the bar! So nice and helpful. Highly recommend this hotel for luxury, food, and beautiful beach!

Top Location with great view, private pool, lot‘s of privacy and very friendly staff

Dimitris was a perfect host, introducing us to the amenities and providing lots of recommendations for places to visit, to shop at, etc. The villa is a little paradise, with its private pool and superb views of the sea and of the mountains. We really liked the Leventis restaurant nearby, which was also Dimitris's recommendation.

For my partner and I IlIos village was the perfect Cretan location. The complex of 4 villas is built on a hillside with stunning views of the valley, the sea and the mountains. The location is quiet and relaxing but it’s only a 10 minute drive from the beaches bars and restaurants of Agia Marina. The villa we stayed in was exceptionally good. It was clean and well equipped with wonderful terraces, gardens and a terrific pool. The pictures don’t do it justice. There was cleaning service and pool service twice a week. I can’t really recommend IlIos village enough. Superb. But that’s not all. Upon arrival you’ll meet Dimitris. He is your host and manages the village. Whatever your expectations of your stay at IlIos village Dimitris will exceed them. He’s incredibly friendly and incredibly helpful. Also he’s a mine of useful information that will only enhance your holiday. Want a restaurant recommendation? Ask Dimitris. Want a beach recommendation? Ask Dimitris. Weather a bit off and you want a recommendation on how to spend your day? Ask Dimitris. Seriously this man will go out of his way to improve your stay at IlIos village in any way he can. He’s a Cretan legend. Another review of IlIos village mentioned that they arrived as guests and left as friends. I can really only echo that sentiment. Thank you Dimitris for making our stay at IlIos village just an excellent experience Highly recommended

The villa was great - lovely pool, nice house, amazing view. Dimitris is really nice and can help if you need it. He is nearby every day but you still have your privacy around the pool.

Our stay was incredible. The kids loved having the pool and space to spread out. The place was clean and comfortable and the views were gorgeous. Dimitris is the caretaker and is the best, he helped us figure out things to do when it was super hot, and he went above and beyond. We wish we had stayed longer and definitely will return.

The location of Asterion Suites & Spa is very special and really a small paradise in Crete. The personell is super friendly and absolutely professional. The manager George is a very special character that made the stay a real perfection. We had a suite with a private pool and everything there was first class, super clean, excellently equipped and stood out all expectations. The cuisine is first class too. And finally every staff member was super friendly, the pool bar is superior and the personell there is extra ordinary and the close distance to the sea is just all in all a fantastic place and we will certainly come back.

We stayed at this stunning adults hotel in Crete, and choosing the all-inclusive package was the best decision we made – just remember to leave tips for the waiters and bar staff, they truly deserve it! The hotel is beautifully designed, with a dreamlike atmosphere. Around the pool, you’ll find both double sunbeds and regular ones, with plenty of spots in the sun as well as shaded areas – perfect for everyone’s needs. There’s also a main swimming pool, a shallow wading pool for pure relaxation, and a private beach where drinks are delivered straight to your lounger with just a quick tap on the app. The rooms are cleaned daily, and the entire staff was beyond amazing – from the friendly team who did everything to make our stay comfortable, to the manager who personally checked in on us. The cocktails from the bar were outstanding, and the food selection and quality at the dinner restaurant were truly impressive. We were on our honeymoon, and the level of pampering we received was simply beyond words. Highly recommended – and we will definitely return!

We got an upgrade when we arrived to a galaxy suite. We had our own mini pool and private terrace on the roof. Our room was beautiful, bright and clean. We were welcomed with a smoothie/juice at reception and in our room was a chilled bottle of sparkling wine and a fruit platter. They also allowed us to check in earlier than 3pm which was a bonus. The hotel itself is new and fresh and the outdoor pool and loungers are lovely. There are loungers on the beach also. It's in a rural seaside location around 30 mins drive from Chania Old town. You have a view of the sea from everywhere and it's a nice sandy beach too. We would recommend going all inclusive. The food selection was extensive from choice of fruits, salads, cold meat and cheeses to the hot food and desserts. They also have a la carte menus for lunch and dinner if you prefer. Staff were all very friendly and helpful all the time. Nothing was too much trouble.

A marvellous vacation. We are an italian couple, we have celebrated our 30 years wedding anniversary at Asterion Suite and SPA. We have constantly been taken care by an excellent and sensitive personnel, especially, Dimitra and Christos at Reception, Roula (speedy gonzales), George, Chris and Antonis at swimming pool Bar, Manolis (superman) at Restaurant, Katerina at Breakfast Section and Michalis the lifeguard. Everything was great, rooms, swimming pool, food, some entertainment music - piano and violin - (performed on Tuesday and Wednesday). We highly recommend this Hotel 💙💙💙

Exceptional boutique hotel, designed with care and good taste. Staff were very polite and helpful. The room is very comfortable and clean. The pool is amazing. Wonderful experience overall! Food by the pool was great. Breakfast is delicious and very carefully presented. Amaryllides restaurant next to the hotel is very good value.

Stunning surroundings with the pools and ocean views. From the moment we walked in, we were treated like royalty from the staff. Georgia affectionally known as “the dog“ as the concierge who made it her business to make sure we were always comfortable and satisfied. Her big smile and warmth made us feel like family after just a few days and her generosity made our stay even more special and memorable. Betty was also another staff member at the executive pool area who was always hard-working and again wanting us to be comfortable. The lunch buffet was absolutely incredible with so much food and variety of food. The grounds of the hotel, including the pool area and the. Indoor and outdoor lobby areas with comfortable couches and tables for people to spread out. It was nice seeing people in the evening sitting together having drinks, playing cards or just conversing. The breakfast was also absolutely amazing.

Most beautiful scenic views, sunrise and sunset at pool, restaurant and sea view rooms. Nice spacious pool area with services. Professional and friendly staff help enjoy luxurious holiday at this peaceful hotel.

We really loved the fact that we received a full apartment in one of the new buildings. It was spatious enough for us and the two kids. The apartment had a small stove where we could heat up things or even cook. The grounds are very pretty, the pools are exceptional especially the infinity pool. There are quite a few entertainment options. The kids loved the water aerobics. The food (we only had breakfast here since we went sight seeing during the day and ate in different places) was plenty, great options and tasty. If you are not all inclusive and decide to eat there e.g. for lunch, the prices are good and food is tasty too. We also loved that there was a small playground where the kids could play when spending the entire day at the hotel.

I had the great pleasure of spending a few days at this hotel and I must say it was an absolutely fantastic stay. The rooms were comfortable and spotlessly clean, the front desk staff were courteous and helpful, and the pool bar team stood out for their friendliness and professionalism. The food was delicious – fresh, varied, and beautifully presented. A special mention goes to Nikos P. from the hotel bar. He is a person full of passion, incredible energy, and genuine charm. His cocktails were outstanding. But it wasn’t just the drinks that made the evenings special – it was the warm, welcoming atmosphere that Nicos created and conversations with him were truly a pleasure. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for relaxation, excellent service, and memorable experiences – and if you have the chance to meet Nikos, evenings at the bar are sure to be unforgettable.

From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcomed and valued. The check-in process was smooth and efficient. Our room was spacious, clean, offering a stunning view .. The bed was comfortable, and the housekeeping staff did a fantastic job of keeping everything spotless throughout our stay. The hotel boasts a range of amenities, including fitness center, a refreshing pool, and a relaxing spa. The hotel restaurant served outstanding meals with a wide variety of delicious options to suit all tastes. The hotel's location was ideal, situated in the heart of the city with easy access to major attractions and public transport Overall, our stay at the hotel exceeded our expectations in every way. ( old staff😁)

Great hotel. with a wonderful beach. Walking distance from great food and shopping. We stayed in a suite with a private pool which was a plus for a quick cool off dip. Room Service was great, perfect for a late evening snack since we like hitting the restaurants early to avoid the crowds.

This is a well run and well organised Hotel. We had a room with a private pool on the beach side. This kept us away from the more family orientated pool on the hotel side. The beach side pool was therefore adult friendly. The food was terrific as well. The hotel organised a trip to Samaria Gorge. But if you take this it's a full 15 hour day. We left at 05.00 and only returned at 20.00 hrs.

I did a solo travel to get some rest and relaxation before baby is due. Minoa palace was perfect in every way! I stayed in the wing across the road near the beach and had a private pool. Perfect sized pool and got lots of sun. The rooms were large and well equipped and the food was outstanding! Service was great and staff all friendly and helpful. I was sad to go. I cannot wait to return!

We had a wonderful stay at The Minoa Palace. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. The food was very good, with plenty of choices. Only downside was we had a room with a private pool but the sun didn’t get on it and it was very cold, so we tended to use the communal pools. Not worth paying the extra. Chania old town and harbour worth a visit.

very nice hotel with a nice beach and restaurants with good food and fair prices. service was very good and liked the complimentaty water and bottle of wine at arrival. Private pool was nice, we missed the view but we knew that it was a garden view room. Wish we stayed longer. We ent to the other side of the island to a more expencive hotel, which was completely overpriced and not near the service and facilities of MinoaPalace
