Spa-Hotels in Kato Gouves

Very nice place for a family holiday, had a great time in the pool and the bar especially. Food in buffet was very nice and had very diverse options. Waterpark was very fun and all the slides had their own unique experience. Very gppd area for shopping and tourism. Staff were very friendly and always happy to help. Will defintely be returning and would recommend to all. 5 stars.

Lovely place to stay! Didn’t do too much research in to all the nitty gritty reviews on TA when people pull silly nothings apart. Our room (5014) was lovely, very quiet at the bottom of the resort. The pool within metres of our room was GORGEOUS! The waterpark at the top of the resort was fun for all ages. The bars were very well stocked. Staff were more than friendly, Maria at the Poseidon’s Bar was...

Rooms is lively apart from the bed lights as it’s too low and one is broken and it twisting. Swimming pool are nice but a little cold during our visit as it’s in October half term. Chambermaid from Albania was lovely. The bar staff in the swimming pool named Victoria was very rude an moody. No customer service. Never seen her crack a smile. Fiid was very average.

As I put on my cosy hoody and clean up after my messy family this morning, I am daydreaming about the wonderful holiday we've just returned from. Here's my rather long review with some photos - excuse the mess in our room! I've tried to show the available storage in the family suite.. Mostly shelving and big wardrobes with about 10 hangers. The hotel was clean and tidy and the staff were friendly...

We recently returned from a wonderful family holiday at the Gouves Waterpark Holiday Resort and had a brilliant time! Traveling as a group of three adults and two children, we found the resort offered something for everyone, making it a great choice for families. The food is what you would expect from an all inclusive hotel, something for everyone. We really enjoyed the pizza, gyros, burgers and ice...

This was our first visit to Crete. We booked this as a 4* hotel. This in all honesty is not a 4* hotel. We were charged the 5* tax on arrival as locally this hotel is rated as 5* so please be warned. On arrival we were shown to our room by a lovely gentleman on reception. We then dumped the cases and went for a look around. The resort is large. There are a number of pools, water slides, splash...

Lovely hotel. Staff very helpful. Hotel very clean. Lots of options for food and all very tasty. Animation team work very hard and children kept entertained.

Lovely family holiday, the all inclusive food was varied and we always found something that everyone enjoyed to eat. The entertainment staff worked really hard morning until night keeping the adults and kids entertained, especially John! Thank you!

We went for a family holiday to this hotel for 10 nights all inclusive. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. There are 3 main outside pools and an indoor pool, we particularly liked the children’s pool and the pool with the with a swim up bar. The rooms had everything required and were cleaned everyday. The hotel was very clean and tidy. Staff were very friendly. My daughter particularly enjoyed the kids...

What a brilliant hotel. Loved the location as it’s right on the beach front. Hotel is so clean and the cleaning team are constantly cleaning and maintaining the high standards. Bar staff were so friendly and the animation team are so enthusiastic with special mention to John, the DJ who went out of his way to make our kids feel welcome and took time out to speak to them, which they loved. Food...

Great family holiday in Crete. Hotel is very clean and staff are lovely. The animation team are great too and always bring the mood up in the hotel. John the DJ is amazing. Always bringing the vibes.

Just got back from our trip and we had a great time. All the staff were amazing but a big thanks to Elena 🤩at reception who looked after us from beginning to end and to Manos in the restaurant for his amazing warmth we did not expect anything like that 🤩. We missed being there and will definitely return. I truly recommend this hotel to anyone. Must also say that the food was great 😊.

Heaven on earth, we spent Christmas and New Year with you and my husband has not stopped talking about it since. The staff were amazing and went the extra mile on everything. The breakfast was sensational and we throughly enjoyed our stay, would recommend Crete and this beautiful hotel this time of the year. Look forward to booking with you again. Wendy Perrin

We enjoyed our stay. All the hotel staff were very attentive and friendly. The hotel is extremely family friendly. The only downside was the limited variety of fruits available at breakfast.

The place is very clean, stylish and a real 5-star hotel. Rooms are very clean & nice. Great atmosphere. We went to free Pilates session & cookie session. Service is very accommodating, sauna open specially for us untill 21:00 instead of 18:00. Food is nice but only 1 restaurant available during low season.

Wonderful and relaxing stay at this beautiful hotel. Had a wonderful massage at the spa

I was not a resort person until this place!!!! Please stay here. I wish I didn't have to leave. The team here was great. From the time of check in with Electra, who was great in sharing the amenities of the property. Evgenia, for answering all of our questions at the front desk. Anastasia for greeting us each morning during breakfast with a warm smile and delicious coffee. The chefs, cleaning...

Amazing — that’s the word that best sums up our stay at Amirandes. We spent 4 wonderful days there and wished we could have stayed longer. The very first thing that struck us was the beauty of the place — absolutely breathtaking. But also the cleanliness, the facilities, the room, the food, and the professionalism of the staff. We would like to thank two people in particular: • Electra, at the reception...

The room was supposed to have a sea view & we had to contact reception 3 times for a switch to the correct room. The rooms were very clean and the staff were very helpful. There's a few things that might leave me wonder where the 5th star is coming from but on the whole a nice hotel

Only been here for 2 days as yet but really enjoying how unique this hotel is. I will Send more feedback later. We are home now so I can revise my review. If you stay at the hotel in the evening there's not much entertainment. The D j plays some nights but nowhere to dance. We made a complaint to the reception regarding our glass toilet door making an aweful noise when opening and closing as it was...

Lovely large hotel with 4 pools! Right beside the beach. ( over the road) Free sunbeds for residents. So much choice on the buffet meals, each breakfast and evening meal. Rooms are large, beds comfy. Great shower and all toiletries in the room. Highly recommend.

This hotel is absolutely stunning – designed in a beautiful Bali-inspired style that makes you feel like you are in paradise 🌴✨. The whole complex is perfectly maintained, spotlessly clean, and full of peaceful corners to relax. There are several swimming pools, each with relaxing spa zones, so you can always find your perfect spot to unwind. The variety of restaurants is excellent – every meal was...

Great selection of pools, with bars close by for a midday cocktail/pint. Entertainment was good, but the DJ by the pool during the day may have been a bit too loud and struggled to find the right songs for daytime djing, put me off my relaxation and had to put earphones in at times. The location by the sea was great with a selection of beds on the beach.

Truly a 5 star hotel What an amazing hotel this was, booked two rooms with a sharing pool and they were amazing, I called the hotel to see if they could make sure we got rooms next to each other, they sorted that for us, what a treat to have our own pool. The breakfast was great, loads of choice. The spa was wonderful, had a salt scrub and olive oil massage, very relaxing indeed! All in all we had...

i arrived at this hotel with my friend late on a sunday and we were seen promptly and was given a bottle of water upon arrivial. my friend and i booked to seperate rooms and were unfortuanely seperated, we did request for rooms next to each other but was informed that there was none avalible. i will say the staff are very accomondating with request the food here is average but everything at dinner...

This holiday was very amazing despite missing the season it was very good. The food, the people, the weather and everything was outstanding. Definitely coming back again and the place is really nice and friendly, I felt safe all the time.

It exceeded our expectation. We were here in November with half board. Breakfast and dinners were rich and there was wide range of delicious food (meats, salads, desserts, ice creams). Staff was very friendly and Check in was comfortable. Room was little bit smaller, shower water drains slower but generally modern and comfortable. We used outdoor/indoor pool and gym without any trouble. In the evening...

The food was ok. The staff were not as friendly and there were loads of cats around the hotel which was not ideal considering that my friend is allaergic to cats. The cats were inside the hotel and even in the dining area (so during both breakfast and dinner, they were always in the room).

We loved our stay at the Aelius and have been recommending it to friends and family wanting to explore Crete. We came in October 2024 and had one of the rooms with the rooftop Jacuzzi - the value for money is incredible, the rooms are great and the rooftop area is brilliant. We'd have liked the shower to be a little better kept and the jacuzzi was cold one a couple of occasions, but really we're struggling...

Spent a few nights at the Aelius Hotel in Gouves at the end of the summer season. The resort itself was very quiet but the hotel itself was quite lively and had a programme of entertainment for the guests which is just as well as most of the entertainment in the bars and restaurants around Gouves had stopped for the season. Special well done to Michael on the karaoke at the hotel who got the guests...

Beautiful hotel. Hotel staff were really friendly and helpful. Buffet restaurant. Entertainment was good, if you go to hotels and like to be Entertained. They spoke French, English and German the entertainers. Kids Entertainment and kids club. No direct beach, but 5 min walk to it. Shops and cafes outside hotel 1 min walk directly outside. At beach put pay 10 euros day for 2 chairs and umbrella...

We stayed at this hotel for a week and we really enjoyed it despite a few issues. The room was not best part of the stay as it had many issues. We stayed in a swim up room in the new building and the room was very modern. Unfortunately, the shower head was blocked due to limescale and the toilet was leaking every time it was flushed. This was disappointing as the room was only a year old. It also...

Gorgeous hotel, clean and the staff are all lovely. The beds were super comfy but only had one pillow each although we were given extras after asking at reception. There were lots of pools and when we went, with no fights for sunbeds. This was October though. The literature states that you can't save sunbeds for later which seemed to stop the breakfast rush to claim them! The rooftop pool was beautiful...

Stayed for 1 week in this beautiful, clean well maintained hotel. We booked a swim up room which was absolutely glorious. We were very lucky as our room had the sun all day whereas the majority of others didn't. Pools were a little cold but then again it was October so what did I expect. Drinks were all self service so no queuing apart from cocktails but they were served very quickly. Food was...

From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel completely at home. The service throughout our visit was outstanding, but one member of staff in particular really stood out. Her name was Fanta Kamara — her friendliness, attention to detail and genuine care made all the difference. Nothing was too much trouble; they went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. It’s rare to come across such...

We have been to this hotel before and always get a great welcome from Maria, Natassa and Efeteria. All the staff are friendly. The hotel is in a good location with several shops and tavernas close by and more if you want to walk a bit further. The beach is also a couple of minutes' walk away with two loungers and a parasol available to rent for 10 euros. There were always loungers available at the...

Lovely hotel staff very friendly and helpful, Sofia the barmaid was excellent with her help and service a lovely person,had a great time,but foo not to great.Would stay again

Beachfront property with 3 pools , restaurant with full all you can ask for, breakfast and comfortable rooms. Although we were here October swimmers were enjoying the facilities.

We spent 8 days (7 nights) at the Astir Beach Hotel and it was the best and most beautiful vacation I have ever had! It left strong memories and feelings in me. The staff was nice and helpful, the rooms were beautifully cleaned every day, the food was very very tasty. Overall, the hotel was clean, the pools were clean, the sunbeds were washed regularly, as were the sidewalks. The beach with the sea...

This was a great place to stay with great facilities, easy to access and opposite the beach. Staff were really friendly and helpful. A bit noisy from a nearby hotel complex with entertainments in the evening but did not spoil things. Our view to the beach was fabulous and the hotel staff levels were excellent and the cleaning team were really thorough.

We had a brilliant experience with nick the doctor on site which we greatly appreciated as me and a friend had a bad accident on the beach on which it near lead to a death experience, he helped and treated us to the best of his ability and he was so kind, courteous and helpful and without his help we don’t know what we would have done! Thank you nick for all you done for us! We will never forget what...

We spent a great holiday week in this lovely hotel. The animator team was well above the expected, great games/fitness opportunities during the day and great shows in the evening. The hotel is very close to the beach and there are also some open air pools. The food was maybe not a 10 star but always fresh and delicious. I must also say that the waiters were always helpful and very positive! Thank you...

Friendly helpful staff. We arrived late and they had a packed sandwich and fruit for us and offered a complimentary hot or alcoholic drink. The food was so tasty and plenty of options. If someone can't find something to eat from the buffet, the fault is on them. Re previous review, I've never been anywhere that hands out free bottles of water. Yes the resort is small and quite quiet but that's what...

Lovely clean and pleasant every where. The staff are very attentive and friendly. The rooms are basic but for a greek island they’re pleasantly practical. Pool area is kept clean and tidy and were kept entertained by the local kittens😂

Staff were very friendly and professional 10/10, location 8/10 if you don’t mind quiet and peace. Service 10/10. Room 8/10. Reception staff 10/10. Food 6/10(Breakfast and dinner). Atmosphere 8/10 for adult only. I would highly recommend it if you are looking for short stay adult only.

I booked this holiday for my girlfriend's 21st birthday celebration and it was exceptional. The hotel is situated perfectly in a quiet, relaxing area with various shops and restaurants in walking distance. The best part about the hotel is the staff. They are absolutely lovely, very calming, attentive and always wanted to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. Also, the pool area, accommodation...

Thanks to Katerina and Iyanna (sorry if I wrote it wrong) we were warmly welcomed. The services given by all them and all her colleagues were perfect and we enjoyed our stay. We will definitely come back.

Just returned from a wonderful 10 day break. Great sea front location with excellent pool and surrounds. Loads of good quality loungers and beds. Hotel is small enough to provide excellent personal service but big enough to have everything you need, including an excellent bar with stand out cocktails Special mention for the excellent staff, attentive, friendly, and efficient. Food was also very tasty...

With a few tweaks, this hotel could be amazing. Twin Room was small ish but clean, however the bathroom almost too small too turn around in. We did choose the cheapest room option though. Beds were like concrete and had only one pillow, I should have asked for another. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and are the reason for my four out of five rating. Any issues were sorted fast, we only had...

We booked to stay here for a week. States 4 star, but a good 3 at best. Our room was clean. But the mattresses were not good. Hard as nails, with no mattress protection on either. Sore back for the week. The cleaners at times missed cleaning our room a couple of times and didn't leave toilet paper or towels. A quick visit to reception had those problems solved. The bathroom was small, but OK, but needed...

We arrived on the 18th September, are 1st impressions were it needs some work doing to it .. but it was very clean Staff were fantastic Poppy checked us in and she was so warm and friendly nothing was too much trouble for her . The restaurant staff were brilliant so attentive to everyone.. My friend and I enjoyed the banter with the head waiter. For was ok The evening entertainment was good too...

⭐⭐☆☆☆ We stayed at Gouves Bay Hotel and overall our holiday was okay, but it fell below our expectations. • Location: Great, close to the beach and town center. • Food & Drinks: Plenty of variety, including vegan and fish options. Coffee, tea, and bar service were good. • Entertainment & Facilities: The entertainment program was nice, pool towels were available, and the parking was very convenient...

Location is good not far from the beach , rooms outdated but functional service was very good , credit to stavos , Helena,dimitri , Teresa. Overall good hotel and good holidays ( not 4 stars Eu) but friendly and good location and not overcrowded. Brilliant massage & spa definitely was very nice.

Hotel was lovely and clean room was basic but clean. Food was ok but much the same every night . Staff were lovely couldn't do enough for us, entertainment was rubbish apart from last night when they had a live band

My son and I enjoyed our stay here and the choice of food at breakfast is good. It's very clean and there's always someone there if you've any questions. Family run which makes it very caring and the pool and bar area are excellent. Ideally located for shops, bars, food and beach ⛱️

Brilliant place to stay although the rooms need to be totally overhauled the mattress needed replacing in our bedroom and there was no pillow or mattress protectors which is a no no for me x the staff were all amazing x the breakfast was brilliant and fiona and Jack were a dream team couldn't do enough for you x also peppa the cleaner was lovely and worked so hard to try and maintain the place x all...

very good clean apartments breakfast great staff very friendly good place to stay.

The rooms are clean and well serviced. Only given 4 stars on the rooms because aircon is €8/night extra. Staff are excellent, the hotel is run efficiently by Maria and the breakfast was great, Fiona and Jack make a great team.

Great Location, near beach and restaurants, the most friendly staff ever, big rooms, see youtube for video..

Visited some friends who were staying atvthese apartments. They were delighted with the refurbishment of the rooms and facilities from last year. Everything looked fresh and new. Had dinner with them there at the lovely restaurant on the sea front. The staff were amazing, very friendly and attentive. Food and drink were well-priced. Would highly recommend this place.

I've just returned from the most peaceful relaxing & refreshing 7 days at these apartments. The location is right on the seafront. The sunsets are amazing. 5 minutes walking to lovely shops, supermarkets, bars, tavernas & nightlife if you wish to boogie. The apartments provide facilities for cooking. Hower I took advantage of the food on offer at breakfast & dinner. I was quite happy with the choices...

We had a great time on Crete.The hotel staff was good especially the waiter Michailis?Close to the beach however the hotel is old .

Excellent service and excellent value for money. Food is very good and plenty of it. Staff are all very and helpful. We love it.

Our first time in Crete and we stayed at Kaissa Beach . Very nice for kids ,helpful and friendly staff ,plenty oft space for sunbathing round the pool , and good prices for cocktails at nicht .Definitely coming back .Big thanks to everyone for avery happy holiday in Gouves .See you soon .
