Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Spacious room bungalow, huge pool, clean beach, plenty authentic greek food, beautiful flowers and traditional grounds. A bit annoying but no kettle to make tea or coffee in room, also no mirror in bedroom, was a challenge to dry hair and get ready for the evening from the bathroom mirror, lack of plug sockets. Cleaners did a good job, although not at a consistent time of day, so appearing early evening at door when you want a shower was not ideal. In the main restaurant the fresh fruit deteriorated in the second week of our stay and the general consistency of food from the previous week went down hill. However there is plenty of places on site to get good food and drink at different points of the day, we particularly enjoyed having a local beer from the bar overlooking the beach at the end of the day. Malia town is a short walk away providing plenty of nightlight and authentic eatieries. The evening entertainment at the hotel throughout our stay was very basic and lacked greek culture and fun! Nearby hotels certainly had much more to offer. The room although was in a lovely quiet part of the hotel and ticked many boxes, the view of the sea was very limited, not really what we expected from advertised and the money paid. The staff do favour the requests of the German clients being the main clientele however it did not ruin our stay and we made the most of our well needed holiday.

Perfect for a week on the beach
Spacious grounds so it never felt crowded, wide beachfront adjoined to hotel so we could always get a spot on the beach, spacious room & bathroom, plenty of variety for breakfast & dinner buffet & food quality was also very good. We hired a car to look around but found it hard to leave the resort & beach as it was so nice & relaxing. Lovely pool & gardens to relax around if you didn't want the beach.

In die Jahr gekommenes Hotel mit schönem Strand
Großartiger, feiner Sandstrand mit tollen Wellen und Lifeguard. Ausreichend Liegen, saubere und sehr große Pools. Essen ist ausreichend und vielseitig. Gute Qualität. Preise für Getränke schon sehr hoch (0,2l Prosecco für 15€). Personal hilfsbereit aber nicht sehr freundlich (Ende der Saison?) Warmwasser im Zimmer nicht immer vorhanden. Auch ein Wasserausfall war dabei (Toilette….). WLAN nicht stabil aber überall vorhanden.

La struttura è bella, elegante, perfettamente inserita nel paesaggio naturale, molto bello il ristorante sul mare, vicino alla piscina e con diretto accesso alla spiaggia dove ombrelloni e lettini sono gratuiti. Le stanze sono moderne ed arredate con gusto, dotate di un efficiente isolamento acustico e termico. Unico difetto è la mancanza nei bagni di un punto dove appendere gli asciugamani da doccia ed all'esterno di uno stenditoio per teli mare e costumi. Il personale è stato davvero gentile ed il cibo di buona qualità e abbastanza vario. Grazie, consiglieremo senz'altro questa struttura!

Très bon séjour
Le personnel est vraiment au top, l’accueil, la gentillesse,que ce soit à la réception, lors du dîner ou bien encore lors du ménage c’est un sans fautes. Pour ce qui est des repas c’est assez varié et la nourriture est bonne. Ensuite les piscines sont bien et propres. Le jardin est superbe, manger avec vue sur la mer c’est génial. La plage est bien c’est très pratique de pouvoir alterner en plus il y a des douches à la piscine des qu’on sort de la plage donc c’est parfait. Le point négatif : La literie il faudrait revoir les matelas et mettre des couettes au lieu de couvertures.
