"Rooms are clean Be aware, you can’t flush toilet paper in Crete Rooms are good size Balconies all look at each other, no privacy No privacy with private pool rooms or pool access rooms Beach is nothing special Food at buffet is ok 15 min easy walk in to town Overall, quite good Very comfy beds, but seems all singles and very close together."

"My wife and I were here for a week; first the good bits: the staff and service were all great, the food was good as was the drink. I didn't like the location; it was on a narrow road next to the sea. Many people walk on this road, but there is traffic on this small road too, with hired cars, motorbikes and quadbikes etc, and they don't seem to know the rules or indeed care; there is also a subsidence problems on the road where it is right next to the shore, with some of the road already having slipped away, and therefore it is a bit dangerous in my opinion. Another problem with the location is that there isn't much either to the left or right of the hotel. A brisk walk into town takes fifteen minutes, and being up a bit of a hill, older folk won't want to do it, to the left there is a nice twenty-minute walk next to the shore, but after you have done it a couple of times, well? With regards to our room, it was kept immaculate by the cleaning staff, however, the bathroom was tiny, only one person could be in it at a time, and the floor was the most slippy that I had ever come across. To get into the shower, one had to step up into the bath tub, and ours was quite a step to get into it. I found that the combination of the steep step-up and the dodgy slippery floor both dangerous and annoying to use. Fortunately for us, we always take a shower mat with us on holiday as we have had probelms in the past. As for the view from the balcony well it was obscured by an Olive Tree. And the walls of our room seemed quite thin as we could hear everything that out neighbours were doing! If you just want to lay on a beach, or around the pool, all day then this hotel is for you."

"If you don't like hotel high-rises, this is the right place for you. Two-story buildings in Cretan style, in a beautiful, well-maintained property. From a small single room to an apartment with a private pool, everything is possible. Even if the hotel is not new, it impresses with its great staff, absolute cleanliness everywhere, and varied and tasty food. No entertainment, because it was hardly accepted in the past. Tennis court available. Occasional evening events in the hotel bar. One could also say adult only. But little guests are very spoiled by the staff. The many regular guests confirm how nice it is at the hotel. Beach and surroundings are a matter of taste. But a good starting point to explore the island. The SPA attached to the hotel is highly recommended. I will remain a regular guest."
