“Brilliant”

When we arrived in Crete we were told that the hotel we were staying in was full until the next day and was moved to this hotel with the choice to go back ( to our original hotel)the day after.

We loved it here so much that we stayed for our full 9 nights. Everyone were so lovely towards us. I'd highly recommend. Yanice and George we love you both lots, thank you for looking after us all with the alcohol supplies 🤣🤣Also thank you to everyone that works there for being the best hosts ever.

“Good opinion - good holiday”

The staff is kind, friendly and helpful. They solve problems quickly. The food is delicious. The chef makes sure that everyone enjoys the taste. The cuisine also includes seafood. The only problem that appeared was the weak wifi, but it will be fixed for sure.

“Not the hotel we booked”

As others have experienced, we had booked another hotel that was overbooked so ended up here (this is part 2 of my 3 part hotel trip in Crete). On arrival the manager was very welcoming and apologetic, however this was not the hotel we booked, so instantly had reservations. I am rating this on a 4* all inclusive basis. Room - large and no issues, cleaners everyday. Facilities - based on what we were expecting (slides, multiple pools etc.) this was lacking! The saving grace was a quiet pool mostly, however this was used by all the youths come an evening. The pool was also not well maintained as there were loose slabs around it. Food - Breakfast very repative, not a huge choice. Lunch - very good, this was by far the best meal, it was not served buffet and you ordered from a menu. Food was very good, and the bar lady who served was very good. Evening meal - tasty, but not much choice, I was always OK but my daughter and wife were less than impressed. All inclusive drinks - fully understood the limited selection, however the wine was really bad! Not only that, but as an all inclusive guest you are treated badly, no table service and you're only allowed plastic! I had to more or less plead for a real glass with my evening meal. This really makes me uncomfortable as an all inclusive guest and made me feel a second rate guest!! This really played on us. Location was good, near a good beach. Part way through our stay, our booking company found another hotel, this will form part 3 of the saga..... On checkout of this hotel I was made to feel even more awkward by being asked to sign a waiver stating I would not sue them, and the accommodation was just as good. If this has happened to you, you do not need to sign this, and I advice you do not sign this! Overall I feel a 3 star is generous, and is mostly this rating due to the staff.
