Amazing stay with very good facilities for the families. The staff in the kids club was fabulous and kept the kids wanting to go back. Also loved the kids buffet in the afternoon
Aside from family facilities the restaurant served very good food, the pool and beach was great as well
The service on the beach could do with a little improvement in terms of people serving

Beautiful hotel located midway between Heraklion and Chania. Loved the beach and restaurant. Our room was amazing with our own pool and fireplace in our private outdoor area. Staff couldn't have been nicer. Loved Rethymno's old town which was a short cab drive away. Would highly recommend this hotel.

We stayed in the garden apartment with our son. Everything was great. We especially enjoyed the great food, the service and the care for children at this accommodation. The kids club was really something which offered a lot for little ones (ours is 3) and we always felt comfortable around the facilities. We felt that the massage was a bit expensive for what it was.

Great hotel with excellent service. Feels like coming home.
A minus point is unpleasant bottom is the sea. There are much better beaches on the island

Expensive but good and quite
The hotel is new and has all the facilities you need for a hotel. It is quite and with a lot of space. The food could be better according to the price level of the food.

I loved everything about this hotel; from the ”welcome!” to the ”hope to see you soon again!” Very friendly staff, excellent housekeeping and absolutely stunning rooms and gardens. Located right on the beach, and has a really nice poolarea. It is familyfriendly but even still a nice, quiet luxurious hotell.
I was upgraded to a room with a terrace with a jacuzzi (that I never got around to use, sadly) and I could never ask for a lovelier room!
The gym is one area that could improve; it is on the smaller scale and it lacked music and atmosphere.
This vacay will stay with me for a long time. Yes- it is pricey but worth every penny.

Beautiful hotel
Gorgeous hotel, service was perfect. Any little problem that could have been solved was immediately fixed by staff. Public areas and rooms were immaculately clean. Best hotel breakfast I’ve ever seen with 30 trays of hot and probably 50 cold dishes. Pool area and beach were lovely and relaxing.
The one warning I would have is that the pool area is very slippery and dangerous. There are few handrails (really only one) so it’s hard to enter and exist safely. I saw several people slip.
If food is not included in your rate I would recommend visiting other local hotels for lunch and dinner. The restaurant is nice but is very expensive relative to the local area.

Das Essen hat Sterne Niveau, absolut top
