A slice of Heaven
Our room was amazing (not sure which category it was because there had been a bit of a mix up so we were upgraded) but if I'd have known how great it was, I would definitely have splashed out to stay in it. It was a two bedroom suite, one bedroom was huge with a gorgeous four poster and the other a single bed in a small room. There was a lift from the pool area that opened directly into the suite which is a first for us and a real wow factor (but you have to remember to lock your door or you may have surprise guests - although I'm sure the French couple were equally surprised to be delivered into our suite complete with a naked husband who'd just got out of the shower 😀). The small room was too warm as the aircon didn't reach there so my daughter slept on the chaise longe in the main room instead and said it was really comfy. The balcony was large and had a lovely view of the village. The pool area was gorgeous and very relaxed with huge comfy mattresses on the sunbeds.  The landscaping was incredible with many fruit trees and colourful flowers. We ate in the restaurant and both the food and the service was exceptional. Breakfast was also excellent. Over our stay, we went to Balos and Elefonisi beach  which I found both overrated, I would have rather spent the time around the hotel pool. We had lovely few days and I would defintitely return for longer (and pay the extra supplement for this room).

We were looking for the privacy of a vila with the amenities of a resort - and found the perfect place at Spilia! We had a private, 3 bedroom beautiful vila, with a great private pool. We added half board to the reservation - breakfast and dinner, and WOW, the food was AMAZING! We could not wait to get back to the village to eat dinner at the resort. The staff was amazing, EVERYBODY was extremely friendly, courteous, and helpful. We would be back, hopefully soon. We are in LOVE with Spilia & THANK YOU for making our vacation a memorable one ❤️🙏

Beautiful setting/traditional Greek hotel
We had booked a suite as we had my daughter and friend with us and whilst it slept 4 it was much smaller than we expected and didn’t reflect any of the pictures on the website. That said it was clean and the hotel staff were great. There was a lovely pool that got busy and a good bar.

Fantastic hotel set in a quiet village location, just 8-10 mins drive from the coast. Great food, fantastic views, the full Crete experience without the crowds or noise experienced at the coast. Crete boutique hotel 2016 and 2017, and a competitive price.

Very nice hotel with friendly staff. Recommended
The hotel is really beautifully built in a stunning landscape. We very much enjoyed its amenities (high quality taverna, swimming pool etc.), and enjoyed our time there. The staff are very friendly and accomodating. I would definitely recommend this place, and would go there again (in fact, this was my second time). Only negative points were the invasion of wasps by the pool (which may represent a health and safety hazard) and poor wifi connection (which in a way helped us 'detox' from internet)

Tuscan feel, far away from the city
Beautiful tuscan feel, rustic hotel. The villas are up the hill, with no way to travel back and forth and no room service. But the private pools are wonderful - better than the hotel pool that was full of bees. The spa is old and not very pretty. The pool bar had a very low selection of liquor.

Quiet but Beautiful Hotel in a Rural Setting
This hotel is a clever restoration of old village buildings grouped mainly around a well landscaped area with a good swimming pool. It is located in a quiet rural village with an excellent local Taverna, a short car journey from the seaside town of Kolymbari. Staff in the hotel are excellent.

A truly disappointing experience
We experienced the most unfriendly and unhelpful staff and the most unhygienic breakfast. The hotel was advertised as serving all three meals which is important as it is in the middle of nowhere and the next town is a 10 minute drive away. Upon arrival we were told that lunch was not available and for dinner we needed to book in the morning so we were unable to eat there on day of arrival. The staff were indifferent and inconsiderate about serving milk that was off for breakfast and flies that were sitting on the pastries and honey. When we complained they simply said that it was too cold outside and the flies come inside. There was no apology for serving sour milk or that the food was covered with flies. We were provided a dirty cot for the baby which we asked to have cleaned, the staff seemed very unconcerned about hygiene. We were also provided a room that could not accommodate the cot which was obvious to the lady putting the cot together in the room but only on request were we moved to another room. The second room had a small table in the way of the cot and the staff member refused to move it. We had to ask another staff member who agreed that the table was in the way and moved it. This is by no means a 4 star hotel. We managed to checkout early and had a wonderful stay at the Casa Delfino in Chania town.

Spilia Village is not up to par
This hotel experience was mediocre. The non-Greek staff were not so polite and ignored to address some basic requests my family and I made. We needed an extra key but they never made one. The glasses were taken by the cleaning staff but were not replaced. The Wi-Fi was less than desirable. The TV channels were not set up to receive local stations (!) The breakfast buffet had very little variety and the orange juice maker that customers themselves had to use (!) was constantly breaking down...I think the biggest factor was that non-Greek staff were not polite or accommodating.

Jaded
The hotel was obviously built as a 5* but has fallen on hard times. Premises scruffy, menu and wine list limited and food not good. Describing itself as "luxury resort" is totally misleading.
