Tolle Anlage - komplett neu renoviert
Pros:

Eine sehr schöne Hotelanlage. Unser Zimmer (Maisonette).war komplett neu und sehr gut ausgestattet, die Betten sind sehr bequem.
Das Frühstücksbuffet bietet alles was man sich wünschen kann. Hervorheben möchte ich die Freundlichkeit der Mitarbeiter. Egal ob am Strand, an der Bar, Rezeption oder Housekeeping, alle waren durchwegs freundlich und sehr zuvorkommend.

Cons:

Alles Bestens

Perfect stay
Pros:

The resort has a good location, close to the sea, and was very modern and comfortable. Our room, with separate living room, was very spacious and clean. The staff was really friendly. The quality of the breakfast was really good. Usually we don’t like buffets (high quantities of low quality food), but this one was excellent.

Cons:

We liked everything

Relaxing stay in Crete.
Pros:

The hotel is beautiful but what it is more outstanding is the effort of everybody for you to enjoy your vacation. Wonderful team, Izabela made my breakfast experience lovely every morning.

Cons:

Only thing is that the swimming pool closes quite early. But I understand that is because of the early dinners.

Soggiorno sopra le aspettative
Pros:

La struttura è nuova e molto pulita. La posizione ottima a poche decine di metri da una spiaggia stupenda. La colazione varia e ricca di prodotti locali buonissimi.

Cons:

Forse l unica pecca dell'hotel è la mancanza di una vista mare.
