Pros:

The room was clean, but poorly designed. We were in our room and could not use the closet or dresser because the doors don't open because the bed was in the way. Our family members stayed in a different room and had a totally different tv then ours and channels. They had a smart tv, and we had a computer screen. The room was comfortable and we had a great view of the water. No front desk after 6pm and bar closes at 9. I would say it’s good for those who want quiet and relaxation. Cleaning crew was good. We didn't eat the breakfast or try the restaraunt as we were up and going before they opened. Overall it wasn't bad but I thought it would be a lot better based on the instagram page and price of hotel. Still not a bad place though and I would recommend it to my elders.

Top locatie, heerlijk uitzicht. Aanrader.
Pros:

De locatie direct aan het strand, een heel fijn zwembad. Wij hadden een heerlijk appartement. Het is super rustig maar als je de straat uitloopt heb je zoveel restaurants waar je uit kunt kiezen. Bij het strand staan ligbedden waar je gratis gebruik van kunt maken. Ontbijt vinden wij heerlijk. Je krijgt het lekker aan tafel geserveerd.

Cons:

Niks

A place to relax and enjoy a swim !
Pros:

Location : 10/10 - so easily accessible to the beach. Amazing even for family with kids

Rooms: 10/10 spacious and new with big balcony

Breakfast :10/10 healthy and very good. Has an amazing view of the ocean and some nice ambiance to start the day

Pool - beach: 9/10 amazing, just amazing. The beach could be a bit more sandy and less rocky but one of the better beaches in cretes


Staff: 9/10 : knew what they were doing and were there to help you out. Sadly, no one is there after 21h. Soif u need assistance, you’ll need to wait in the morning. The staff remembers u, remembers our bames. The cleaning personnel was amazing, knew when we were gone to clean the room

Shower: 10/10 had a very original and clean bathroom. Also, the soaps smelled really nice

Parking: 10/10 parking is free

Activities: 9/10 they had a nice boardgame and book selection and floaties for the kids

Cons:

1. No reception after 9. If u have problems, you’ll need to wait for morning.

2. Small flying bugs in the rooms sometimes, probably cause of the heat. They would not do anything but just stay in 1 place.

Locul in care m-as intoarce oricand as reveni in Creta!
Pros:

Hotelul este amplasat chiar pe plaja, pisicina este superba, personalul super prietenos si dedicat astfel incat vacanta sa fie perfecta. Este o locatie ideala pentru relaxare, si totodata foarte aproape de taverne, promenada si tot ce ai nevoie. Curatenia in camere se face zilnic. Noua nu ne-a lipsit nimic!
