Reviews
Only downer is a 100 euro "climate crisis tax" slapped on your bill at the end.
If you're going to obligatorily add 100 euros to a bill. You should say this at the time of booking. When do we draw the line on this?
A "water crisis tax" of 20,000 euros slapped on a check out bill?
I realise it's not all their fault. But more could be done.
I would recommend anyone coming here to ask to have a look at their “bungalow” before checking in.
Also very dirty, old dust and dirt. See enclosed photos. We will not come back.
Absolute best surprise hotel. Loved everything about it. From service to very big rooms, lovely food, other guests etc.
Will definitely return.
The property: Beautiful, well kept and lush with vegetation.
The Staff: Check-in was slightly disappointing. The person who was tasked with this responsibility was bubbling, but unfortunately distracted by other guests which took away from intended "personalize experience". Check-out was more disappointing as the person, while professional, were more pleasant towards their colleagues than to us while we settled the charges.
The Restaurants : We booked dinner at 3 of their restaurants; each had its own event.
The1st dinner was a tasting menu curated by an outside chef. The menu items were delicious. However, nothing accompanied our cocktails - no amuse-bouche not even olives. Moreover, bread was not offered or served with our courses.
The 2nd dinner was at Adeste. We were really excited about this one as it was traditional Cretan cuisine accompanied by live music. Once again, items came so fast and we felt so rushed. We finished 4 appetizers, 2 meats and a bottle of wine in an hour. We didn’t get to linger and enjoy the music.
Because the first 2 experiences, we cancelled our 3rd dinner reservation.
The Room : Superior Waterfront Bungalow.
Excellent staff and property truly amazing experience
great place , loads of space and its own beach and beds by the sea.
amazing breakfast in the morning.
