Great Hotel outside of Heraklion
This was a terrific hotel about 25 kilometers out of Heraklion. It was fine for us because we had a car and the driving easy. The hotel was walking distance down the hill Agia Pelagia which is a cute little beach town. We ate at the hotel restaurant one night and were pleasantly surprised at the overall quality of the dishes we had- way better than a hotel restaurant usually is.
The staff was great and the breakfast buffet was very good. If you are planning a trip to Knossos and the Archeological Museum this is a good option. It was nice to get back to the quiet of an out of town hotel.
The only downside is they are trying to hard to be kitschy which is totally unnecessary for such a quality property. We loved it all in all

Your own slice of paradise.
Amazing quiet little spot. Everything you want in a room and the personal pools (15’ x 20’ and 5’ deep) are next level. You will not regret staying here.

Top tier hotel with stunning views
This is by far the nicest hotel and location we have ever stayed. Seriously. We arrived to our beautiful room and found a hand written note from management with chilled champagne and sweets. We were stunned by the sunsets over the water of the ocean and the amazing pools! The food was very good in the restaurant and the breakfast buffet was excellent. This is a destination location!

Our first time in Crete. The hotel was amazing. Along with our VIP access we received an upgrade including a private jacuzzi. The views were stunning. The Spa services and facilities were one of the best I have experienced.

Spectacular view, not too far from the airport. Wonderful room, clean and spacious, we got a room with private pool and sea view. Nice beaches close by. Strongly recommend getting a rental car to move around. Stay on the main roads!!!
Food at the hotel could be better (breakfastis is ok), you are better off finding restaurants to eat out for dinner.

Very nice property, but only a few maintenance related items. The first night my tv did not work. A cable was changed but this should be check as part of room readiness. Also, my phone did not work and the AC condensate drips continually when it is on so the living room floor pools with water. I reported all 2@4 items for correction.
