5 star hotels on first line in Greece

Aggelos was fantastic! He provided excellent service and was incredibly helpful in showing us where to play tennis. Pros: The facilities are all top-notch and in great condition. Cons: No direct bus from the airport to the hotel, and some activity areas could use clearer signage as they were a bit hard to find. Overall, a wonderful experience

This is our second time back to this hotel ,staff and food was amazing , the manager jhon marc was great such a amazimg and lovely guy ,very helpfull ,thankyou very much electra we will be back

Every aspect of this all-inclusive hotel exceeded expectations, but the outstanding service and heartfelt care from the staff truly made my stay unforgettable. Warm smiles and genuine attention to guests create a welcoming atmosphere that sets this hotel apart for a memorable Rhodes holiday.

Had the best 10 days at Electra Palace. Staff friendly and welcoming. Food choices great, the desserts are AMAZING! Rooms are clean, have all that you need, only thing that we struggled with was connecting our phone to TV so we could streem. Pool had sunbeds that are plentiful, drinks at poolside can be ordered via QR code. The Spritzville cafe has good range of snacks, iced coffee and alcoholic...

The hotel was fabulous clean tidy well looked after, all the staff very helpful room was cleaned everyday towels including beach towel where changed every day , the food was average but you won’t starve, loads to eat and drink, more sun beds than you could wave a stick at , entertainment was ok 2 decent acts out of 7 the only down side was everything stopped at 11pm bars stayed open till 1am but nothing...

The hotel was lovely but didn’t feel like you were in Greece. It could have been anywhere in the world. The food was excellent, the quality and selection was marvellous every single day. The themed a la carte restaurant were a mixed bag with Greek and the bakery being amazing! Very good quality, freshly prepared. Italian restaurant was very basic and rushed and nothing about it felt Italian. The wine...

We arrived late but were taken care of brilliantly by reception and bar staff. Stunning location. The food and drinks were much better than we had expected for a budget holiday. Friendly atmosphere, nice bars and activities available. Walking to town is not far. Reception staff were great advisors to plan our activities and trips. Helpful and friendly warm service seemed second nature to all staff...

Positives: The staff is almost beyond reproach, they were very helpful, quick to address our concerns and went above and beyond in improving our stay. We had quite a few complaints about our stay and they tried to make up for it by giving us a free bottle of sparkling wine and a free dinner in the ala carte restaurant which was much appreciated. The chef was very generous in offering to make vegan...

We stayed at the Almyros for just 5 nights but it truly felt like we had been there for way longer. The hotel is amazing. The staff is so friendly and supportive, they truly care about their guests. The food was fantastic. Even as a vegetarian I had so many options to choose from every single day and after a delightful dinner you’d have fantastic entertainment from the animation crew. Especially the...

Very happy with our stay at Villa 4 – the pool, rooms, house, everything was just perfect. We were with two toddlers and the staff even installed a toddler gate for the first floor without us even asking. 🥹 The staff were amazing – super kind, attentive, and always ready to help. They even gave us small things for free, which felt so thoughtful. Dora was incredibly responsive at any hour, and I really...

Expensive "all inclusive" 4 star hotel - the hotel is not 5 star as claimed. Liked · The food was excellent, lot's of choice and well prepared. The rooms were modern and spacious. The swimming pools were clean. The staff were attentive. The plants, grass etc. were kept in very good condition. Everywhere easy access for children strollers, disabled people. Great sandy clean beach, free sunbeds. Shallow...

I just got back from this hotel, and it was amazing! The rooms were super comfy and nice. The food was so good that I couldn't wait for the next meal because everything was fresh and tasty. The beach was clean, with beautiful sunbeds to relax on. We also had an incredible experience with a Ferrari meet at the hotel, where we got free rides in the cars. It was absolutely fantastic and made our time...

Great hotel, nice rooms designed, big and got a swimming pool it was vert enjoining . The service was very good the food was great

Beautiful hotel with amazing accommodation. Unfortunately it is very remote and the service provided was less than average. We stayed Half Board and were very disappointed to discover no drinks were included with our meals. Even water was charged to our room at €3.50 a bottle! (My advice is to tip the waiters at meal time or you are not served) Facilities (bar and a La carte ) were also very expensive...

Our 2nd Stay and Definitely Not the Last Accommodation – Spacious, modern, and spotless rooms, furnished with style and functionality in mind. Housekeeping – Daily cleaning with fresh towels and quality bathroom toiletries provided. Restaurant – Excellent breakfast and dinner options with plenty of variety and beautifully presented dishes. Highly recommend choosing the half-board package. Beach...

We had an amazing stay at Ammoa Resort and Spa. The whole experience was smooth, relaxing, and exactly what we needed. The breakfast and dinner were excellent, great selection, fresh, and consistently delicious. Huge thanks to the cleaning staff, they were absolutely wonderful. Our room was always spotless, and they were so polite and friendly every time we saw them. Their attention to detail really...

A lovely stay. Very good hotel. Good food, lovely beach and views. Friendly and very helpful staff. We would stay there again.

We stayed at this resort for 3 nights during our honeymoon and it was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, we felt special – we were welcomed with a refreshing drink and a beautiful fruit plate waiting in our room. The hotel even arranged a private Bali bed right by the sea just for us, which made our stay even more romantic. Every single staff member, from the bellboy to reception, guest...

We absolutely loved our stay at Eden Roc Resort! We now know why people keep coming back. The staff are all great and there is superb Al a carte restaurants to choose from.

Everything is great! Especially the a la carte restaurants and Bar 800

Upton arriving to the hotel, it met our expectations, modern, clean and welcoming. However after a few days issues with the hotel started to unfold. The 'hot' food served in the buffet was always cold. This became a concern so we avoided it as much as possible. Bar service was slow, often queuing for over 15min+ for a drink. The cocktail menu was limited and the standard of cocktails being poor...

An unforgettable week for the second time, staying in the pool bungalow with the bar included (breakfast and lunch plus cocktails) exclusively for pool bungalow guests. The food, coffee, cocktails, and more are of better quality and in a quiet environment. The room, the setting, the service, the housekeeping, the restaurants, the games, and the evening entertainment are extraordinary. It's just...

Beautiful hotel in a beautiful area. Large complex but very well managed. The beach is their own and the main pool looks olympic size! All staff are very friendly and accommodating.

Can’t wait to return What an incredible hotel! So beautifully decorated, such a vibe. Staff are wonderful. The food selection is incredible, so many different restaurants- even for breakfast & lunch. Garden Bungalow was clean and spacious. This is the first hotel I’ve genuinely been excited to return to. What a gem!

Beautiful rooms with stunning sea views, excellent food, and private beach access. The dining was a highlight in itself. Every meal was a pleasure — carefully crafted, deeply flavourful, and served with genuine care. The same can be said for every corner of the resort. Whether we were at the reception or the restaurant, relaxing at the bar, or indulging in a treatment at the Kepos SPA, the level of...

Incredible views Fabulous service Giannis and his team were amazing,nothing was too much trouble and always served with a beautiful smile

Daios Cove is a stunning property architecturally hugging the Cretan coast. Offering pure luxury seclusion. The collection suites are beautifully finished in neutral colours with a generous balcony and stunning views across the bay. The food is delicious. Stunning tasty dishes and who doesn’t love a Greek Salad. ? The residents club offers all inclusive. Verve champagne is the house champagne which...

This hotel is just amazing. After a transfer from the hotel through amazing views you finally arrive to the hotel. We stayed in one of the collection rooms with a private pool. Just perfect! To move within the hotel all is well organised, the restaurants are amazing and we had a couple of special dinner the occurred during our stayed! Really upscale! The kids also loved it and were very well taken...

Built into a hillside overlooking a private bay, this resort offers panoramic sea views from nearly every terrace. The infinity pool and quiet beach access make it ideal for a relaxing getaway.

Beautiful spot and much better out of season as in season it gets too crowded. love the private beach. Could be more space around the pool.

I had a wonderful vacation at this hotel last year. I have to thank the staff! The restaurant manager and the bar manager, Barbarossa, were very friendly, and it was hard to say goodbye to them. I remember this vacation as one of the best! The food was delicious, the sea was only about 20 meters from my room, and the pool activities provided great entertainment. There are shops and a car rental service...

Before i write the negatives about this place . The 5 star review its only because of the FOOD&BEVERAGES TEAM! Big shout to IANIS RESTAURANT MANAGER very professional and knowledgeable, and Ianis jnr,you are amazing people and you really made us feel welcomed,please do train the rest of the staff about customer service,everyoane except the FOOD &BEVERAGES department, people at the bar were also very...

We stayed at the Resort from 14th of September to 19th of September. We arrived around 9.15pm we checked in and told to leave the luggage and go and have the drinks and dinner.This was great. The room was large/spacious/nice and well equipped. The staff at the Reception,Restaurant and at the Bar were very friendly and helpful. The Manager at the Restaurant was very friendly and polite. The food at...

Lovely hotel placed one beautiful beach with great view, The hotel have two main pools and another one in the spa, three restaurants (Greek, Italian and the last one I don't remember), The Entertainment team is amazing there is a unique show every day in the evening along with activities during the day for kids and adults. The food is very good and the staff is very nice.

The potential of the hotel is amazing, being situated on the west beach of Fanes, all the rooms facing the sea, some of which have private pools. If you look at the pictures on the hotel site, you can see the amenties, like the glass room gym, the dining room, all facing the sea. Only, this potential fades as the maintenance needs improving, so does the level of the food. The 'all inclusive' basis...

The resort is amazing right beside the sea with amazing sunsets. The rooms and pools are great. Staff at reception are very aggressive and often having an agreement with each about things in front of guests. Food isn't 5star level, more like 2 or 3. Entertainment was okay... and the clean staff could clean, there were so many cobwebs and towel that we use and left in the bath were never taken and replaced...

It's in a very good location, clean, the breakfast has a great variety, and the staff are friendly. However, the free swimming pool is cold; it's impossible to use it in winter.

Nice hotel. Beautiful seawater pool.

The hotel has complete facilities and beautiful environment. It is close to the sea. It was windy and cold in Athens these two days, so I couldn't go to the beach. It's a pity. I will stay here in the summer.

RThis hotel is truly exceptional. The spa is beyond compare, and the front desk staff consistently go above and beyond to guarantee a delightful stay. They welcome you with genuine smiles and are ever prepared to fulfill any need. The accommodations are exquisitely adorned, offering a seamless combination of coziness and opulence. Furthermore, the on-site restaurant boasts a varied menu that caters...

I had the pleasure of staying at the Divani Apollon Palace & Thalasso in September for a work conference, and it was truly an outstanding experience. The rooms were beautifully appointed, comfortable, and well-maintained, providing the perfect retreat after a long day. The service throughout my stay was exceptional, every staff member was welcoming, attentive, and went out of their way to ensure my...

Not a 5 stars resort experience when compared to recent units on the Athens Riviera and…In urgent need of overall renovation, since the early 2000´s. F/B performance, breakfast buffet setting and quality « locked » on the stingy eighties standards: out of the hot buffet servings there us extra charge for eggs, 15€ for room service charge etc…

We had a relaxing stay at Grand Resort Lagonissi in October. Staff Despina was friendly and helpful, kindly recommending several local attractions. The only feedback we would share is that the food at the beachside restaurant wasn't as fresh as expected, and the octopus dish in particular tasted off. Overall, the experience is quite chill.

A lovely resort with beautifully landscaped outdoor areas and wonderful views. Efficient and professional service from the reception team to the restaurant staff with a real personalised approach to the clients. Would highly recommend.

Had a wonderful time. 5 stars resort. Staff were amazing. I recommend it for family getaway to bond with the kids. We’re planning on going back in 2026.

Gorgeous location with nice accommodations, a variety of amenities including a fabulous breakfast buffet and beautiful landscaping to boot! The staff were friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful stay! Highly recommend.

Amazing place. The staff is great always good mood. we love it! we will definitely come back. breakfast was great. the sea is amazing can’t recommend enough

An absolutely unforgettable weekend getaway! The Grand Resort Lagonissi is a true slice of paradise on the Athenian Riviera. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable—the staff made us feel completely welcome and cared for. ​The resort itself is simply stunning. The private beaches, the crystal-clear waters, and the beautiful grounds create an atmosphere of pure luxury and relaxation...

This was such an incredible resort. The staff is absolutely impeccable and their beachside/poolside service was amazing. The buffet was impressive and the food was absolutely delicious. I’d go back over and over.

Amazing resort and beach. Food was epic and the service around the pool really great. Just make sure to download the group app and book your restaurants as soon as you are confirmed. Got upgraded to a swim up room too so that was pretty special.

Beautiful property. Nice location. Trip to Agreco farm was wonderful and so was the food. Staff were fantastic at the resort. Used the spa it was lovely. Didn’t like the restaurant booking system. Downloaded Hotel app before we left Canada but unable to book restaurants 7 days in advance of arrival. Also the buffet food was underwhelming at times. Also allowing smoking was annoying. Can’t believe in...

It was just ok I'll start by saying the staff at the hotel are the nicest and most accommodating I've ever come across. This property is most certainly NOT a 5 star luxury resort. It's a 4 star at best and there's nothing luxury about it aside from the one pool and the sunsets. The room that I was originally assigned had a sexy shower situation happening, shower was separate from actual bathroom...

The staff at the hotel are very accommodating and friendly, helping you with anything you need. Our room was well proportioned, although we could have done with some more storage space for our clothing. We were situated on the ground floor right near the activity pool, which was perfect for us with teens. The staff were helpful before we even got to the hotel by answering questions via Whats App,...

Mine and my partner’s stay at the Luxme white was absolutely fantastic from the location to the food and facilities were amazing. Everyday there was always something to do with amazing evening activities for everyone to get involved with the rooms were superb with amazing air conditioning. Would highly recommend staying here and we will definitely be returning in the future

Perfect for families with children. The staff is outstanding and very responsive to answer any questions you might have. They are quick in responding to your emails. It's a little bit of a walk to the beach. Every complex has their own little pool in addition to the super size pool in the middle of the complex.

Third visit back to the Gaia Palace. Lovely stay yet again. Staff were absolutely amazing and very friendly throughout our visit. We stayed in a superior double room which was excellent. The beautiful sandy beach with bar and toilets is a short walk with free sun beds for Gaia Palace guests.Not much locally around if you like a walk round a resort but a bus or short taxi ride into either Mastichari...

We had a wonderful stay! The staff were very friendly and welcoming, especially Mr. Nikos. The food was delicious and varied, with four different themed evenings. The hotel is beautiful and clean, with great pools and plenty of space – it never feels crowded. It’s not a huge, impersonal complex, but rather a charming place with low-rise buildings, nice rooms, and a lovely garden full of plants all...

I can only recommend this very nice hotel. Everything is perfect and it was worth every penny for this fantastic holiday. The nice and sandy beach is not too far away, about seven minutes to walk. The buffet offers more than enough, morning noon and night, the bar staff on both of the bars is just amazing, the pools are great, friendly staff all around, it's super clean all the time, what else can...

Lovely clean hotel. We went all-inclusive so had a good selection of food and drinks. Plenty of sunbeds and pools so it never looked busy. If you are looking for a quiet relaxing holiday I would recommend staying here.

The Gaia Palace is a lovely hotel one of three sister hotels in the same area, although we only went into the grounds of the other two, the Palace appeared to be the best, the grounds at the Palace are very nice and well kept. The public areas of the hotel are kept very clean. As we stayed towards the end of the season, the staff had really started to reduce, leaving two young people covering reception...

Literally came back yesterday. Honestly the most beautiful and friendlist hotel i have ever been to. We had room 405 lovely. Had everything we needed. We arrived late in the evening not expecting to be able to eat anything but the restaurant had left us a meal with bread and fruit plate. So kind and attentive. The pools were amazing. We made some wonderful German friends. My husband had 3 treatments...

Amazing 5 star Resort for couples who wants a romantic getaway. We went there in early November and had a nice experience with the Spa and Wellness Team: Wendy, Christina and Tina. We enjoyed 90 minutes Cretean massage and facials. Highly recommend to spend some extra bucks to get nice and relaxing time.

Great resort, very relaxing, friendly and peaceful overall. The spa is great. Everyone is friendly and helpful. Overall is a great experience, this was my third time returning and would definitely come back.

Amazing stay at Ikaros Beach Resort in Crete! My wife and I had a four night stay here recently and it was a fantastic holiday. The resort is beautiful, our ocean front suite with private pool was incredible, the food was amazing, the staff were friendly and helpful and the overall experience was brilliant. By the end of day one we were planning our next visit! Travelling with Crohn’s disease isn...

Really great atmosphere , Asian restaurant is a must !! Served by binod and Bishwas in the main restaurant and always had a smile in their face.

This is a stunning hotel. From the moment we arrived we were treated like valued guests. We were given wet face towels and a refreshing drink. We arrived around 11am so way earlier than the official check in but were told our room was already available for us. The room was amazing. As we walked along the corridor to it you could smell the newness of everything and the room was spotless and modern...

We stayed at Sani Club last May with our baby, while our friends stayed at Porto Sani. We chose Sani Club because we prefer peace and quiet and loved the layout, being slightly removed from the centre really appealed to us. Our friends preferred to be in the middle of everything, so they chose Porto Sani. We understood that guests could visit the different hotels within the resort and use the facilities...

We booked the two-bedroom villa with a private pool, and it exceeded our expectations. The villa was spacious and beautifully designed, with a huge pool overlooking the sea — truly breathtaking. Having direct and very close access to the beach made the stay even more special, especially for a family. We loved the decor and landscaping, which were elegant, well thought out, and created a very relaxing...

We had a wonderful stay at Sani Club. The service is truly outstanding! Nikos and his team provide exceptional service and really go above and beyond. We will definitely be coming back.

We had a very good stay at Sani Club and there is no doubt it is a beautiful, elegant and high-quality hotel. The service was excellent, the surroundings are stunning and the beach entry is lovely. It definitely feels a bit more refined and upscale compared to other parts of the resort. That said, travelling with three small children, I personally found Sani Club less practical than Sani Beach, where...

Great stay at Sani. It is quite a resort with lors to do and experience. Our concierge Alexandra was the best, very diligent and thoughtful. We really enjoyed it.

Great location, rooms are very nice, staff are wonderful, and Alina Bagiazidou is incredibly attentive and helpful and makes sure your experience is as good as it can be.

Great hotel regarding price-performance ratio. Clean and good food. However it’s definitely not 5 star hotel, 4 star at most. No nice beach close to hotel, but there is variety of pools to choose from.

Very good hotel. We are currently resting here. Everything is 5+. With children, the best vacation is only here. Food is at the highest level, many thanks to the chef, who cares about his guests and wants everyone to be satisfied. The staff is very friendly, the girls clean at the highest level. I liked everything, I recommend it to everyone!

Nice 4 star resort (on some websites it appears as 5 star for some reason). They have three pools and and two small adjacent kinds pools and are located by the sea-side. A nice sandy beach is reachable with a free shuttle from the hotel. They have a free kids club for over 4 and payable one for under 4. They also offer babysitting services. The buffet is good with always something to choose from despite...

We loved our stay at Vasia. The service from checking in through to checking out has been excellent. We enjoyed using the pools, gym and spa facilities. The breakfasts were amazing. There was so much choice for everyone. The dinners were also great, I especially enjoyed the salad bar and the freshly prepared main courses. The service at both meals was friendly and helpful. We had a family room with...

Nice hotel, but not five stars! The buffet was large and plentiful, but too much "english" food and not enough Greek food. Kids entertainment was a little shabby. Danny the main entertainer was great, but kids facilities were old and tired. Evening entertainment was poor. Snack bar was poor. Bedrooms were good.

We had a fantastic time staying at the resort. It had all we needed for a great holiday. The suite we stayed in was very spacious with a private rooftop terrace, the room was cleaned daily and stocked with bottled water every day. The restaurant was excellent, there was always something nice to eat with a vast selection at every mealtime and the Italian restaurant is a must. The staff were very friendly...

My Review is for Florida from the Spa: She was so nice, kind and lovely to me and the Treatment was so amazing. I felt so relaxed and nearly newborn. Thank you so much!

An hour of pleasure. Never had such a professional treatment. Florida Was very gentle and treated ne with the upmost professionalism.

I love this hotel! Everything is clean, personal is friendly, food is delicious and spa is amazing. Today I had a full body spa treatment. Florida was so kind and caring. I am grateful for this experience!! Hope to be back soon ＜3

I had the pleasure of enjoying a spa massage at this hotel, and it was an amazing experience. Florida did an excellent job – professional, relaxing, and truly effective. I’m very satisfied and would definitely come back again.

Amazing experience with professiolism throughout. Florida was able to use her skills to be thorough in her services. The booking of the service wasn't pushy or Sales like. Was more about a relaxing experience that was on offer. Very nice and welcoming facility, nice smells 👌

The SPA was amazing. I had a great pedicure from Ms Florida. She was very careful and thorough, It was wonderfully relaxing, and the result is perfect. Thank you so much!

Solid 4* hotel, but not 5* and here few notes: Positive moments: Lots of greenery with plants and trees everywhere, the feeling is like in private mini tropical garden. The spacious family room. Proper main buffet, good variety of meals with some Greek specialties at each meal. Sea view from the main restaurant make your breakfast perfect and same for snack bar in the afternoons. Room cleaned (very...

We had a fab week with our kids, we were so impressed with everything. The village style of the resort is lovely rather than one big hotel block and it's great having a good beach attached. The food was really high quality every meal. Staff were friendly and helpful and the pools are nice, especially the one where you can sit at the bar inside the pool. The affectionate, well-cared-for cats are an...

I did enjoy this hotel. This is likely due to the time of our stay ( last week of the season) but that doesn't matter. A few draw backs though.... Drinks are awful. The soft drinks were so poor quality and the lager dreadful. Having no wi fi in the rooms challenges it's 4 star rating as does paying to play pool. However, at this time of year it's great for pool access and room to sit and,eat. Overall...

Absolutely loved our stay here. Staff were so friendly, resort was beautiful and very close to the beach. Food was good too. We were blessed with beautiful weather to which helped. I would come back again for sure.

The complex is beautiful and the room was clean and tidy. The staff are polite and extremely helpful. A vast selection of food is available and it's delicious, the food was the best I've had in a long while. All in all, I cannot find anything negative to say about this place. We'll definitely be coming back.

The massage was good and the pressure was just as I expected. Emma the therapist was lovely. I only wish they could play some calming music in the background and explain how their shower works.

What a beautiful resort. The accommodations, the view, the facilities are all top notch. We enjoyed our time here immensely. It was hard to say goodbye. We highly recommend this hotel.

The setting was beautiful, everything was so clean, food was amazing and I’d give Jenny 10 stars if I could! She arranged a driver for us to get to and from the beach we had an amazing stay!

The hotel is excellent, offering spacious rooms with all the facilities you need, and a nice balcony overlooking the sea. Breakfast is very good, with plenty of options to choose from. The pool bar serves beverages, food, and cocktails to enjoy while relaxing in the infinity pool. The hotel is within walking distance of the town of Pigadia. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Karpathos

As soon as I arrived at Alimounda Hotel, I was greeted with smiling faces at reception, who made me feel instantly welcomed. And I was offered a Greek treat upon arrival, delicious. Later on when I went down for dinner, I was greeted by the beautiful Eugenia at Customer Relations, who made me feel like part of the family. Eugenia went above and beyond to make sure my stay was exceptional! I can’t...

I would like to commend the level of service and courtesy that the hotel staff provided us, especially the reception manager, Mrs. Flora. The cleanliness is amazing and at the highest possible level. The level of service and cleanliness and the good food gave us a pleasant experience that is not to be missed. I would also like to mention and praise Mrs. Yevgenia, the hotel's customer service manager...

We have been coming to Karpathos with my mom for 5 years and always tried different hotels, but Alimounda Mare was by far the best – with its beautiful beachfront location, spacious and clean rooms, wonderfully kind and helpful staff, stunning infinity pool overlooking the sea, rich and delicious breakfast, relaxing wellness facilitie and much more. The overall peaceful atmosphere that made our stay...

Excellent, really great! The only downside was the weather wasn't warm enough for a swim in the sea.

The outside beds in the room were nor clean

The room faces the sea, and having a balcony is really nice.

This is an established, old-money hotel in Greece that offers great value for money. During peak season, from May to October, it's nearly impossible to book a room and prices are incredibly high. However, in the off-season, the prices are much more affordable and the experience is even better, though you won't be able to enjoy water activities.

Absolutely perfect hotel! The rooms are beautiful and the facilities are brand new. There are three private beaches, a heated indoor pool, and an outdoor pool. To the left is the pool, and to the right is the Aegean Sea – simply stunning! The breakfast is amazing, and they even offer free electric bicycles. Nearby, there's a marina in the upscale district and a street with luxury shops, perfect for...

The staff are attentive and remember guests by name, and the hotel offers a nice view. However, the overall experience was not smooth. The room, although advertised as 45 m², felt much smaller. The first room lacked basic seating and space for luggage; the second was better with a table and two chairs, but still odd setting for a luxury hotel. The outdoor pool was closed, and the spa and indoor pool...

We booked again for the Elounda Bay Palace, staying for 7 nights in June and looking forward to our 7th visit. We were given a lovely reception upon arrival as always, quick check in progress and were shown to our room. We had a side sea view which was different, but a good view towards the sea. Very clean and spacious with a very comfortable bed. Very close to the restaurant, which was convenient...

Excellent! The hotel is fabulous; staff amazing especially Anna Maria, she is the best , tries so hard to make your holiday the best, we love coming here. Breakfast lovely, fantastic view looking over the sea, so relaxing ! Beach lovely, loads of Fish swimming around your feet! Always lots of sunbeds . Town loads of fabulous restaurants looking over the sea, only 10 mins walk from hotel . Will...

We are very happy here. We have been coming already 40 times. People are very friendly and it is just as coming home. We already booked our holidays for 2026

Friendly, helpful staff, very clean, good breakfast and dinner buffet and comfortable beds. Concierge very helpful. Lovely welcome.

On the plus side having booked a classic sea view room we were upgraded to a deluxe room which was sea facing but not with a good view. Lovely room and balcony with table chairs, and sofas. The service staff were amazing - all credit to our housekeeper Joanna, restaurant staff Evangeline and Maria. And the brilliant pianist Christina. However … the Jet2 description of the amenities are misleading...

Elounda Bay Palace & Hotel Review When you choose a five-star hotel, particularly one that promotes itself as luxurious, expectations are naturally very high. Small details you might happily overlook in a four-star property become far more noticeable when you are paying and expecting a five-star experience. Below is my account of our stay at the Elounda Bay Palace. Arrival & First Impressions We...

I really really like this hotel. The pool! My sweet balcony overlooking the housing and in the distance both some volcano of some sort and the Aegean in the other direction. The air con worked like a dream. It's a businessman hotel which works well for me as a man. The shampoo and body wash are attached to the wall in the shower and smells just right. Decent sized shower. Had exactly what I was...

My stay at the Galaxy Hotel in Heraklion was truly exceptional and unforgettable. Beyond the comfort, elegance, and impeccable services, what makes this hotel extraordinary are the people who give it soul. I would especially like to express my deepest appreciation for Irini, whose sensitivity, kindness, and genuine warmth made me feel welcomed from the very first moment. Her delicate attention to...

Nice place, got recommended by a local to come to this place. Pretty decent to be fair. I travelled from bloxburg with a few of my cousins, they enjoyed it a lot. Service was great I really think selena deserves a raise for her quick services and outstanding non alcoholic beverages

From the moment I arrived, this hotel delivered impeccable service at every single level—the kind that is rare and unforgettable. The front desk team, Zoe and Michales, set the tone immediately. Warm, professional, genuinely caring, and incredibly attentive, they made me feel not like a guest, but like someone truly welcomed and valued. Their understanding and willingness to go above and beyond was...

Excellent quality hotel with a large and beautiful swimming pool, very comfortable rooms and professional and attentive staff. A true 5* hotel, a 5-minute walk from the historic center of Heraklion. This is not our first stay and we are never disappointed. The price-quality ratio is absolutely correct.

A lady at the front desk was very enthusiastic and patiently recommended food and group tours, great 👍

Beautiful place! Staff was very friendly! Rooms were cleaned everyday, and at night house keeping would come in and see if you needed more waters or towels. Only reason why I didn’t give it 5 stars was because breakfast was the same thing everyday, I stayed there for 11 nights, and after a few days I got tired of eating the same thing. It would be nice if they would change it up with different options...

The staff was very friendly and the yoga teacher was excellent. The property is beautiful and the restaurant is very good. We were disappointed in the private outdoor hot tub because it really wasn't private. Also, the shower in our room only had a 1/2 wall enclosure so the floor was very wet when we used the shower. Overall, it was a nice stay but we would not return.

The hotel itself was spotless. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. The pool was super nice as well as the beach and the breakfast was good. My only complain is we had a jacuzzi in the room but it never really got hot enough to enjoy every day. There was no cover so it would spend all day heating up to about 36 degrees which was ok, wish it was warmer! Otherwise it was a great stay, I would...

Fantastic beach for swimming! Very relaxing hotel. Everyone was very friendly and exceptionally helpful

Beautiful hotel, very well looked after and maintained. Staff were all incredibly welcoming, helpful and progressional. Setting is stunning, direct access to the beach and walkable into the old town. Perfect get away

Clean Room, staff excellent, service great, good location. Poor breakfast and gym inadequate
