Hotels with Swim-up Rooms in Skaleta

The staff were all incredibly friendly and eager to make sure we had the best time. The room was spotlessly clean and incredibly comfortable, and we were upgraded to a room with a plunge pool! Great pool area with plenty of sun beds. Lovely buffet breakfast with extensive options.

The room was amazing, super comy bed, bfast and dinner had a large selection of international foods to choose from, everything was super fresh and tasty , the pool also beautiful and also our room had a plunge pool which was very nice and chic, service was truly 5 star, all staff were super friendly and proffesional! Location also is very good a long beach by the coast vouple of minuits away, a little bit far from old town but easy reachable with the bus, taxi or 30min walk, Will be back for sure! Highly recommend this hotel , one of the best hotels we ever stayed!

Nice new hotel in a good location. It had beautiful pools with access to the sea. Also the breakfast was amazing with a lot of options and variety. Also we got a free upgrade of the room with the plunge pool, that was very nice and they were very flexible with the checkout which was much appreciated.

A very nice modern resort with extremely friendly staff overall. A fantastic breakfast spread and nice touches with free water bottle refills everyday, some Raki and dried fruit to welcome you. We had a Double room with Plunge pool however it was more of a lie down warm jacuzzi than a real plunge pool. Also privacy between each room when using the outdoor bubble bath was non existent as they are all connected to each other. The bathroom is also not 5 star with a tiny glass partition in the shower that barely stops any water from running all over the bathroom floor. And storage space is quite limited both in the bathroom and bedroom. Liana at the concierge desk was very friendly and helpful and George gave an excellent hot stone massage. Rethymno town is 15 mins by car. The hotel has a valet service. If came back to Crete would come again, but hope they fix the walk-in shower issue!

We adored our stay in the Nautiliux Hotel. On arrival we were given an upgrade to our room which was massively appreciated. The service from the moment you arrive is impeccable. The hotel rooms are lovely and the pools and beach area are stunning. We spent 10 days at the end of the season and switched from days out - to days on the beach and around the pool. We were spoilt for places to relax and enjoy the weather. The attention to detail is impressive whilst you enjoy the outside amenities. Little safe boxes to lock up for when you head to the sea. A private beach. 2 pools. Towels. A call button for service. A plethora of seats to chose from. Cabanas, bean bags, loungers. All the staff were so attentive. remembering your choice of drink at breakfast. Posting post cards for you. And the indoor pool is also lush. I also enjoyed an all over body massage in the spa, which was also gorgeous.

Beautiful adults only hotel, excellent staff and the food was amazing. Near Rethymnon so excellent location. Swim-up rooms if prefered.

The sea front executive suites are amazing, the sun set for your own private pool is something exceptional, just go for it... The staff is friendly always ready to help and chat with you...just perfect...we felt very welcome since the first step, just want to thak all te stuff and a kind regard to Mike at the beach bar service, thaks a lot dude was a pleasure meeting you.

Excellent location right on the beach. Very friendly and helpful staff. Wonderful spa facilities. Outstanding "Kritamo" restaurant. Clean and comfortable area, good variety of food, plenty of shops and tavernas in the vicinity. Both airports and most famous historical places are easily accessible by car. The executive suit with a private pool and a sea view is just great!

This is the perfect hotel! Pros - the swim up room, absolutely stunning! - room itself is clean, spacious and modern! - comfy pillows! - the hotel itself it’s beautiful, so clean and modern interior. - food is excellent! - drink prices and snack bar are of good quality and good price. - plenty of sun loungers, and good quality beach towels. - not too far from other restaurants and bars. Cons - wish all inclusive could be provided. This was my favourite Greek stay, so far! I have recommended this to family and friends and wish to return one day! Have the swim up room, it’s 100% worth the extra price.

Luxury indeed! We booked an Executive Suite Sea Front with Private Pool and it was everything we hoped it would be! Room extremely clean and comfortable, the pool just next to some grass and then the beach. Perfect! The staff was also fantastic. Very helpful from the start to finish, every each one of them make you feel welcome and special by being helpful without bothering you. They were accommodating and eager, always appreciated in a 5 star hotel. You can feel the hotel is new, everything works and isn't worn out. The main pool seem nce and fun enough, even if we didn't use it. The main restaurant (included in the Half-Pension rate) is pretty good. No fine gourmet but frankly, I prefer a diverse and fresh buffet for breakfast and dinner than fine dining. There are 2 other à la carte restaurant that also organize special nights, but we didn't try them. The beach is a mix of sand and pebbles (you'll need swimming shoes to go in comfortably) and extends very far. So even if the hotel doesn't organize anything special, you can easily find activities to do a bit further. Be aware that there can be a lot of wind and currents : swimming was forbidden for 3 days for us. All in all a fantastic stay at a beautiful hotel, would recommend without hesitation!

Everything was superb - we really enjoyed our stay. Amazing getaway with private pools and beach. Very friendly and helpful staff. Nice choice of massages. Rooms with Private pool was the best decision we made (with sea view!)

I liked our personal pool and the breakfast. We both loved the staff and the Creatan live music. in the restaurant. My husband, who is handicapped, appreciated the roomy shower.

Lovely having a private pool in our villa. Beaches are easily accessible with calm, enclosed seas - good for the kids. Great good options. Overall, excellent resort.

We enjoyed our stay at this resort. The location is quite remote but this didn’t bother us as we had a rental car to get around. We stayed in a room with a private pool but there was also a lot of options for swimming with a number of pools and a beach area to choose from. We tried a few of the restaurants and the food was delicious. We also ate in the tavernas in the local village a short drive away and loved the authentic atmosphere here. The staff were the standout here, all very happy, friendly and helpful.

Amazing Stay! We booked a family villa with a private pool, don’t regret it! Amazing hotel location and facilities are amazing, staff are very friendly and accomodating, excellent restaurants and restaurant staff are also very kind and helpful! Definitely recommend, next time we’re in Crete we’ll be back!

The whole concept is beautiful and the staff were fabulous. The privacy was sensational with our swim up accommodation and the sea view was superb

The restaurants and all inclusive package was impressive, particularly ‘The White’ restaurant. Every member of staff were so welcoming, friendly and attentive and seemed very well trained. The Agreco farm experience was excellent and a must do! The swim up room was lovely and so relaxing. We didn’t want to leave!

We've had an amazing week in this hotel. Nothing to complain about! We enjoyed vacation so much! The food, staff, facilities, pools, and beach - everything was just perfect. We've managed to book all the restaurants during our stay (however, it was a bit tricky), and the food was just delicious. We had a shared pool - this is just perfect for vacation, as there's no hassle with going to the general pool and trying to catch a good spot. Would definitely consider coming back to this hotel in the future!

Amazing main pool, in October it was heated to very comfortable temperature. Hotel straight on the beach, lots of space on the beach and terrace above. Great service and very friendly staff. Really good food, best buffet restaurant ever. Also good options for vegetarians and vegan options. Al la carte also good especially wonderful Agreco farm for Greek food and Asia white for sushi. Other guests high class, respectful, quiet, making buffet dinners and spending time a the pool a pleasure even if full. The whole resort is very child friendly as well, great for families with kids. We had family room with sea view which was amazing to wake up to views of the sea and horizon. Free parking, very easy, plenty of space across the street from the hotel.

I recently returned from a holiday that truly exceeded all my expectations. From start to finish, everything was absolutely amazing. The pool area was a highlight – beautifully maintained, with plenty of space to relax and enjoy the sun. Whether you wanted a peaceful swim or just to lounge by the water, it was the perfect spot. The staff were exceptional – friendly, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure everything was perfect. Their warm hospitality made a real difference and added a personal touch to the whole experience. And the food… absolutely incredible! Every meal was delicious, with a great variety and high-quality ingredients. Whether it was breakfast, lunch, or dinner, each dish was full of flavor and beautifully presented. Overall, this holiday went above and beyond what I expected. I couldn’t recommend it more – already looking forward to coming back!

A very charming small hotel. The hotel was an old olive oil producing village that fell into ruin. Each of the rooms has been renovated from small workers cottages to a charming standard. It is such a lovely, quiet spot away from the hustle and bustle. The pool is idyllic, the only criticism would be that I think it should be adults only. The ambience was somewhat spoilt when there was a couple with a baby who was crying by the pool and had the parents speak baby talk which ruined the quiet setting, the hotel is much better suited as an adults only due to its quiet nature. Food was excellent, breakfast choice is vast and evening meals were always excellent albeit on the pricier side, but we ate there every night. The hotel is a bit isolated away from the main tourist areas but that suited us down to the ground to be somewhere quiet. We would return.

Beautiful spot. The old village of Kapsaliana, with its olive press, has been converted into a hotel. Our room was in an old stone house with the bedroom up a narrow stairway and the living room, bathroom and an outside terrace downstairs. The rooms vary a lot, some with no terrace, so worth checking exactly what you will get and maybe paying a little more for an upgrade. The service and staff were wonderful, as was the restaurant which prepares an amazing buffet breakfast. We had dinner there both nights and the food was superb. Beautiful pool area and great views of the surrounding area. Very highly recommended.

An absolutely wonderful experience at the Kapsaliana Village. We stayed for 7 days and could have stayed longer. The staff were amazing and very helpful. The restaurant was fantastic for breakfast and dinner with great variety, quality and hospitality. We ended up having our best meals in Crete at the hotel thanks to their award winning chef. The property is nestled in a quiet, secluded hillside which is perfect if you want relaxation by the pool or walks through the neighboring olive orchards. I would recommend having a car if you wanted to do any excursions.

We had a wonderful time staying at Kapsaliana. Everything was fantastic, the room, the food, the beautiful view from the pool of olive groves stretching down to the sea. What's now a hotel used to be the olive mill and cottages attached to the nearby Arkadi monastery. The ancient buildings are beautiful and very atmospheric. The grounds are full of flowers and fruit trees.

Die Anlage ist sehr gepflegt und ruhig. Auch die historische Architektur ist wunderschön. Der Servics entspricht leider nicht dem hohen Niveau bzw. Preis der Anlage. Keine kostenlose Erfrischungsgetränke, Obstschale oder ähnliches auf dem Zimmer. Kaffe und Rühreier beim Frühstück oft kalt bzw, abgestanden. Snacks und Getränke an der Poolbar sehr teuer. Abendessen im Restaurant sehr gut, aber auch sehr teuer.

Pro: Quiet Food Staff Private Pool Con: Would have been nicer on the beach Not a good sea view as blocked Single slow lift Not a lot of night time entertainment - only 2 in 6 days

Traumhafter Aufenthalt im Royal Senses Resort auf Kreta Wir haben 5 wundervolle Tage (4 Nächte) im The Royal Senses Resort auf Kreta verbracht und waren insgesamt sehr zufrieden. Das Hotel liegt etwa eine Stunde vom Flughafen Heraklion entfernt und bietet eine ruhige, entspannte Atmosphäre – ideal zum Abschalten. Obwohl der Check-in offiziell erst um 15 Uhr ist, durften wir bereits gegen 12 Uhr auf unser Zimmer – ein Grand Deluxe Room mit privatem Pool. Wir wurden mit dem Golfcart hingebracht, was sehr komfortabel war. Das Zimmer war großzügig, modern und sehr sauber. Besonders der private Pool und die große Terrasse mit Meerblick haben uns begeistert – vor allem bei Sonnenuntergang einfach traumhaft! Wir hatten Halbpension gebucht. Das Frühstück war solide, wenn auch jeden Tag recht ähnlich. Das Abendessen hingegen war exzellent: große Auswahl, täglich neue Gerichte und sehr gute Qualität – von Ribeye-Steak über gegrillten Lachs bis zu Garnelen und Spare Ribs war alles dabei. Über die hoteleigene App konnten wir unkompliziert Restaurantreservierungen und Bestellungen tätigen – sehr praktisch! Ein kleiner Nachteil war, dass Cocktails nicht aufs Zimmer bestellt werden konnten. Laut Hotel liegt das an der Qualitätssicherung während des Transports. Das ist verständlich, aber etwas umständlich, wenn man abends einfach entspannen möchte. Die Hotelanlage ist weitläufig und teilweise etwas verwinkelt – fast wie ein kleines Labyrinth. Es gibt einen Panorama-Aufzug mit toller Aus

Wir hatten einen fantastischen Urlaub im Royal Sense. Da das Hotel recht außerhalb gelegen ist, waren wir die meiste Zeit nur am Pool. Die Anlage, das Essen, das Personal - alles ist auf sehr hohem Niveau und war für uns perfekt. Daher hatten wir fast keine Lust durch die Gegend zu fahren (auch weil ich im 7. Monat schwanger bin) und die beliebten und überfüllten Strände im Juli zu besuchen. Zu empfehlen ist definitiv Rethymnon (ca. 15-20 min fahrt, Taxi 25€), hier gibts tolle Restaurants und auch schöne Bars. Im Nachbardorf Panormos (5 min mit Taxi) gibt es sehr gute Tavernen (Kastro zb) die hochwertige Küche aus lokal angebauten Lebensmitteln anbieten. Wirklich ein Traum. Wir hatten nur Frühstück, was vollkommen ausgereicht hat, da wir mittags am Pool nur eine Kleinigkeit bestellt haben und abends dann in den Tavernen in der Umgebung essen waren. Es gibt die Möglichkeit für 40€ pro Person (ohne Getränke natürlich) im Hauptrestaurant zu essen (Buffet) aber das hat leider nicht bei weitem die erstklassige Qualität wie das Frühstücksbuffet. Wir hatten eine 120 € Rechnung und waren doch recht enttäuscht. Ansonsten gibt es noch mehrere a la Carte Restaurants, die sehr gutes Essen haben aber natürlich bei weitem nicht so günstig sind, wie die umliegenden Tavernen. Wir wollten unser Geld dann lieber bei den Einheimischen lassen und die Gastfreundlichkeit genießen :) Publikum ist ebenfalls sehr angenehm, viele junge Leute und sehr gepflegt. Wir kommen wieder!

Amaizing from top to bottom, great service and restaurants, great pool, alot of space in the pool, has a shuttle to the beach 2 mins drive,Great breakfast!!! We had a late flight and they have showers and fitting rooms and you can stay aslong as you want,wow,wow,wow!

Statt Meerblick, hat man ein Dach Blick, nicht wie auf den Bilder vom Hotel. Sauna und Pool Bereich kosten 40€ pro Person pro Stunde. Im adult only Poolbereich gab es 3 jacuzzi, 2 davon haben nicht funktioniert. Gym super Klein, schlecht ausgestattet. Allgemein waren viele Sachen im Hotel kaputt, man kann es nicht übersehen.

The room was very nice and comfortable. The private pool amazing.

The place is spotless, and it's a great location to the beach and a 40 min walk to the near town centre of Rhethmno. it was still quite hot in October and the staff was always very helpful. We got the room with the private pool and it was absolutely delightful to be there. More expensive but totally worth it.

Beautiful accommodations with beachfront access, multiple pools (including private room pool/patio and shared upper level pool overlooking sea). Very friendly, helpful staff and amazing breakfast each morning! Great location 10 min drive to Rethymno port, and located 1/2-way between Heraklion and Chania, so great central location to access those areas (and Plakias area in south) while visiting Crete.

we loved the swimming pool , the location in front of the see , the warmth of the staff, the quality of the food and the amazing room with pool

The service was excellent and the team of staff are friendly and go out of their way to help. the hotel is spotless and daily cleaning service is excellent. The pools are great and the rooftop pool and sunbathing areas are fantastic. The breakfasts were great and a fantastic start to every day.

Gorgeous hotel, service was perfect. Any little problem that could have been solved was immediately fixed by staff. Public areas and rooms were immaculately clean. Best hotel breakfast I’ve ever seen with 30 trays of hot and probably 50 cold dishes. Pool area and beach were lovely and relaxing. The one warning I would have is that the pool area is very slippery and dangerous. There are few handrails (really only one) so it’s hard to enter and exist safely. I saw several people slip. If food is not included in your rate I would recommend visiting other local hotels for lunch and dinner. The restaurant is nice but is very expensive relative to the local area.

As it was early April, the hotel was reasonably quiet. The whole area of the hotel and pool was very relaxing and super clean. Staff service in EVERY area of the hotel was first class: Front of house, Housekeeping, Dining, Pool and Bar areas, the young man who delivered drinks to the room and those who helped with luggage. It is obvious that careful attention is given to the recruitment and training of staff as, without exception, every member of staff was friendly and most attentive to whatever request we had.

Our stay at the Caramel was excellent and I recommend booking to anyone unsure. I've see criticism of the hotel's location, but anything you'd need is available within a couple of minute's walk. Caramel isn't in the main town of Rethymnon, and to get there you need to get a bus which takes around 10 minutes or enjoy the pleasant 90 minute walk. Rethymnon is where all the night life is with a great range of restaurants, bars, dock side eateries and everything you'd associate with that. Whilst Caramel is a distance from Rethymnon, it has small markets and a decent choice of restaurants and bars directly outside the door. I don't think location's a problem, unless you're very keen to be in the middle of all the action. The customer service at Caramel exceeded all of our expectations. Upon check in we were greeted with snacks, a local refreshment drink in a cocktail glass and cool towels. The staff make sure that you're treated to a very high standard at all times. Examples of this are too numerous to mention, but some highlights included, staff setting up new table outside for us at breakfast when the area was full, the daily provision of a different flavour of liquor in our room each night, fresh fruit and water provision at the beach and pool side... All in all, it's a brilliant place to stay. We loved it. Thank you!

We booked this hotel 8 days before travel, visiting for 14 nights in mid May 2018. It was the only hotel in the area that was 5 star with a 5 star review rating, and it certainly lived up to expectations. We cannot thank the staff enough for their attention to detail. We had a lovely room with large enclosed patio, complete with loungers, brolly and chairs, sea view and room was fully serviced twice a day. The restaurant was excellent, although we only ate their 4 times in the evening, breakfast was fantastic something for everyone. It was a 1 mile walk to the start of the main commercial area, with dozens of shops and restaurants, all food very good and reasonable. Rethymnon itself worth a visit and again excellent restaurants and shopping 5 miles away. One final thing, the hotel wifi is full strength and fast throughout the entire resort including beach and pool. We will definitely return, one of our most relaxing holidays in a long time.

The hotel is beautiful - it looks like it’s brand new, as it’s so clean and well maintained. we felt like it were in a dream. It never felt too crowded, the pool was spacious and clean. Lots of options at the buffet. Service was faultless, no request felt like too much. The kids group was great - my daughter enjoyed some of the activities and had the best time with the pool games every day at 4. From the hotel we drove down to the south coast in about 45 minutes and spent a splendid day visiting those beaches - a must do!

Service exceptional, from the fresh fruit and water served poolside, to the selection and quality of food available. The beach is one of the nicest around. Plenty of beds and umbrellas both poolside and on the beach.

Wonderful resort with big pool, well kept grounds and access to beach. We stayed in a “villa” style room which was near the beach and pool.

I cannot recommend this place enough, especially because of the exceptional training program included in the stay. The experienced and professional trainers made a huge difference—not only in terms of the workouts but also by personally helping me with some health issues I had. Their care and knowledge were truly above and beyond. Every day started beautifully with yoga on the beach, listening to the calming sound of the sea. During the day, we cooled off with aquagym sessions in the pool, which were both fun and refreshing. In the afternoon, we enjoyed outdoor Pilates and functional training, which were personalized to our needs and led by Vlad, an outstanding trainer. His knowledge, energy, and ability to make each workout feel like play made it such a joy. It was a unique and deeply enjoyable approach—something I haven’t experienced anywhere else. This hotel is definitely one of the few offering such a high-quality wellness service. It was more than just a holiday—it was a true retreat for my body and mind. Btw, it is a pity I did not know there are such options when I hesitated if to book this hotel in the beginning. Of course, the accommodation, food, and hotel facilities were all excellent as well, but the fact that I could really focus on my health during the stay was the absolute highlight for me.

Firstly, the staff and service are what truly shine in this hotel. Everyone, from servers, receptionist to cleaning staff was polite, greets you nicely and reaches out to help when needed. Secondly, the buildings and surroundings are well kept and look nice, with beautiful flowers and trees spread around the premises. The main pool area is great with very nice quality seats and cabanas. This, combined with other guests being frankly older, made for a much more calm and relaxing experience, in contrast to some other hotels where the noise and bustling sounds are more pronounced. Finally I would like to extend my gratitude to the management for arranging an upgrade for me and my family to a villa, so that we could more conveniently spend time together on this trip.

We stayed in one of the villas with a pool. It was amazing!. Great service, very attentive, room staff were fantastic and thorough. The villa was super relaxing, just a few steps to the beach or chill out in our own pool. We enjoyed it.

A beautiful hotel. Really welcoming and child friendly without being overwhelmed by children. Great kids club. Excellent food.Beautiful beach and pools with plenty of space to sit by them. Evening entertainment was good quality and not too touristy! Staff very friendly and helpful. Couple of minor niggles - sheets on our bed didn’t fit properly so scrumpled up overnight. This was a recurring problem suggesting they had the wrong size of sheet for the mattress. Really sharp corner in our family room by sofa - our daughter cut her foot on it.

A luxurious hotel with lovely views and surroundings. Clientele are predominantly Russian and prices within the Hotel are expensive. Staff are excellent and speak good English. Excellent aqua-fit tutor. Good kids club for younger children but not so good for teens. Very enjoyable stay but lack of English people in the Hotel was disappointing for younger family members. Fabulous pool and beach.

We loved our stay at Creta Palace, it was our honeymoon and the hotel so kindly upgraded us to a family suite on arrival which was beautiful. The facilities are great and perfect for our 2 year old, she loved the pool and beach. The staff were so kind and friendly - thank you so much for making it so special!

Good pool service. Great breakfasts. Overall would go back

Nous avons passé une demaine en juillet et l’hôtel est très bien, très propre, le buffet est varié et très bon et notre chambre était super Je conseille vivement

Local ótimo para passar férias com crianças em sossego. Grande variedade de comida muito gostosa Personal muito atencioso.

Everthing was great.. food, servise, room…

The room was comfortable and met all our needs. The food was nice and there was a good selection every day. Staff were very nice and we had some good chats with some of them.

Overall amazing experience. Very clean, food was varied and tasty. Only downside is the beach was close, but there is no sunbeds for free. You need to pay to rent the sunbeds, as they are owned by another hotel. Service in the hotel was very good and prompt, they were very helpful throughout our stay. Definetely worth it if you just want a couple days of relax and enjoying inside.

Amazing resort with everything available. Service was spectacular. We were upgraded to a Villa & it was gorgeous! We had our own private pool! Main pool & 2 private beaches were perfect! We had dinner at Elia a couple of times & food was delicious, service was superb! Highly recommend a stay!

by far the best hotel I have ever stayed in. The private pool and spa are out of this world!

The entire property and staff exuded and promoted a sense of relaxation which was really something we were looking for. The beach and pool areas were very accomodating in regards to food/drink ordering. Proper maintenance was obvious on the grounds as we ways saw staff out keeping things well manicured and taken care of. We were pleasantly surprised to be upgraded to a suite with a private pool for our last two nights which was quite beautiful. We would definitely recommend the Royal Blue to anyone considering a vacation in Crete.

Ik had het hotel graag 5 sterren gegeven en na de eerste paar dagen gaf ik het hotel ook 5 sterren, maar ik houd het bij 4. Dit vanwege de ontzettend slechte wifi verbinding op de kamer. Anno 2022 dient de wifi op een hotelkamer gewoon goed te zijn en ik heb al jaren niet meer zo'n slechte wifi gehad. Dit was bijzonder problematisch omdat er bij het hotel een slechte verbinding was van het mobiele netwerk (vaak max 2g). Dit heeft dan ook vaak tot ergernis geleid. Daarnaast is mij, ook na het verblijf, volstrekt onduidelijk wat het 'shared pool concept' nu precies inhoudt. We boekten een shared pool kamer, maar onze kamer lag niet aan een gedeeld zwembad. Dit hebben we bij aankomst aangegeven en we hebben een kamer gekregen die wel aan een zwembad lag. Deze klacht werd aldus heel netjes opgepakt. De gedeelde zwembaden zijn echter, zo lijkt het, voor iedereen toegankelijk en de kamer die we eerst kregen toegewezen, hoorde ook bij één van de gedeelde zwembaden. In principe is dit geen probleem, maar wij boekten deze kamer vanuit het 'swim-up' principe dat we op Kos in het verleden hebben ervaren en ons erg goed beviel (vanuit de hotelkamer zo het zwembad in). Ik ben dan ook van mening dat dit concept beter moet worden uitgelegd bij het aanbieden van deze kamers. Voor het overige beviel het hotel uitstekend. Veel zwembaden (jammer genoeg zout water), veel ligbedjes (waarvan het gros op het privé strand) en het ontbijt was echt zéér uitgebreid en gevarieerd. Wel raad ik een huurau

This hotel definitely lives up to its 5* rating. The rooms and facilities are of a really high standard and kept exceptionally clean and tidy constantly. Staff are friendly and multilingual with an extensive knowledge of the local area and the rest of the island. Our room had a private pool but there are many other pools and a private beach as well as sports facilities and a gym. The drinks are a little pricey but that's expected at a resort of this type. Although we mainly used the resort as a base, the days we spent my the pool were very relaxing and the ambience is great whether it's daytime in the sun or evening spent watching the sunset from the cocktail bar. Definitely recommended!

Really great hotel - fantastic all inclusive restaurants & selection of drinks from the pool / bars, we loved the ice cream & crepe bar too! We don’t drink so a decent selection of mocktails, non alcoholic wine & soft drinks. Breakfast buffet had a great selection & there was a separate adults section for some peace. We moved to a swim up room to the left of reception after a poor condition swim up room to the right of reception (full of mozzies) was originally assigned. The room was clean, no great patio & pool space with sun most of the day! Bathroom & wardrobe space a little old fashioned, but all ok. Hotel amenities are good - great main pool & activity pool, entertainment is a little meh > better for kids than adults. Beach has dark sand & water wasn’t so clear but a short trip out could take you to some great spots.

Loved the pool and white decor. Loved the many choices at the buffet. The rooms were nice. Things that could be improved: -towels available at the pool or beach -order pool/beach food by app on iPhone -usb outlets by the bed to charge iPhone Thanks!

I recently stayed at Grecotel LUXME White Palace, and it’s safe to say the experience was nothing short of fantastic. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel like VIPs—warm, welcoming, and always ready to help with a smile. The aesthetic of the resort is stunning—whitewashed elegance with chic, modern touches. The views of the sea are breathtaking, especially at sunset, and the number of pools (22!) means you never feel crowded. We especially loved the adults-only pool for a bit of quiet relaxation. The all-inclusive dining exceeded expectations. From themed buffets to à la carte restaurants, everything was fresh and flavorful. I highly recommend the Asian fusion spot and grabbing a crepe at the Gelateria. The cocktails? Top-notch. Our room was spacious, spotless, and beautifully designed, with a sea view that made mornings magical. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and little touches like daily turndown service and local treats were appreciated.

Vacation was great. The hotel is well maintained and the service is excellent. We didn't have WiFi service in our room and they provided a modem for a wireless connection. The beach is small and not the greatest, but pools are nice. They should have recycling bins and not just garbage bins. Also the tour we booked to Knossos and Heraklion was just a private taxi taking us around and the taxi driver wanted to finish the tour as soon as possible. Not the nicest. Overall, our stay was great. My kids loved the pool and the kids' club. The young ladies who played with and entertained the kids were extremely nice and friendly.

This hotel is truly amazing. The pictures do not do it justice! The taxi driver, manager and front of house staff, were very helpful and welcoming. I really had an amazing experience. The room was very clean and spacious. Staff were very helpful and friendly. There was a good variety of food options, which looked and tasted great! The only negative was that the private bungalow pool was dirty however the main pool area was lovely. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel.
