Hotels on first line in Agios Nikolaos

Prior to our visit, i messaged the hotel to pre-arrange some flowers etc, They provided many options depending on the budget. When we arrived to our hotel room they provided the flowers in a lovely

Best bits of beach in the area Fun 5 days. Great for families. We were ok with that, never seen so many push chairs in one place 😂 Greek Restaurant was good, we were not all inc.

We came to Mirabello for 10 days for our Honeymoon with our 2 year old son. From arrival up until the last day, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay

Good internet working throughout the hotel, even in the room, even on the beach. The child included cartoons from youtube and contact

Ioanna was incredible. Really targeted the muscles and eased the tensions.

A special shout out needs to be given to Matthew, the concierge, who went above and beyond in every respect taking immediate care of any request and ensuring all of our requests were taken care of

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 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

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 care

The pools, the staff, all very nice

? The residents club offers all inclusive. Verve champagne is the house champagne which is something we can all get used too. Above all, as always with the Greeks. It’s natural to be engaging and enthralling

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

We struggled a bit with the toilet door lock which seemed to be old and the door handle wasn't very stable. This was our first time with all inclusive and we absolutely loved the food in the buffet restaurant

I have had many efficient and competent spa treatments, but this was a singular experience. The therapist was very skilled and her holistic approach worked wonders in the span of 60 minutes

Blue Marine has a very peaceful location, so if you're looking for a relaxing experience and amazing views, this might be a great choice

The sun loungers by the pool were all reserved at 7 am so it was nice that there were plenty of sun loungers also on the beach. Just beware that the lift between hotel and beach could be unreliable

Excellent as usual 13th time at his hotel we love it, food excellent and varied choices at each meat, staff very friendly and always helpful . This year he man pool is heated which is a plus

We had a large balcony facing the sea and it was really nice in the evenings when the temperature got milder. The room was all in all clean

Good: - Wifi, excellent connection no matter in hotel room, restaurant or beach. - Lounge chairs and sun umbrellas free - Very few beaches in Crete with sand and clear water. - Hotel restaurant is good with sea view

The room, place, food, beach is excellent. Manus and Asimina were the best host we ever had experienced. We will be coming again to the place and we highly recommend the place to visit a place just like a paradise

I ‘ve stayedin Faedra Beach hotel this year in august. I liked the hotel staff, always helpful, friendly and welcome. I felt I was the local amongs them. The room was clean, and being cleaned every morning

Many thanks to the hotel Faedra Beach Resort for our summer family vacation in July 2025. I want to note the very friendly and hospitable staff. All issues were resolved quickly and without problems

This place is magical! It’s in such a special place and has an wonderful energy. Early November is a beautiful time to go - very peaceful beach, exquisite clear water, calm, and such a warm welcome

Also the hotel location and it’s restaurant right away to the beach, with it’s support at the beach with various snacks and beverages

Lovely hotel, super location on the beach short walk to centre (lake) 5 mins only, supermaket outside, reasonable spa, lovely room nice decor, amazing amaneiteis - Cool Clarins bottle red color, breakfast restaruarant on 5/F overlooking the sea, infinty pool all great

I would definitely recommend it. Great location, short walk (~600m) both to the public beach and to all the restaurants. Lovely view of the sea from the room.

Stayed at NIKO for a long weekend in mid October - we had the BEST weather (sunny and warm but not too hot) and really enjoyed our time there. The views are just stunning (definitely recommend sea-view rooms)

Wonderful stay! Not far from the city center, the pools are nice and the staffs are friendly. Breakfast was so good and they even have live musician playing for dinner

It was a wonderful place with sea view all the time! The breakfast and the dinner were great!

It is very sad situation that there is no beach access for an island resort yet the hotel is very nice and Maro Dyalina is a pearl. Her service is amazing and she make sure all the guests enjoy their stay

Beautiful sea views and sunrise Wonderful room with perfect sea views and spectacular sunrise. 25 minute walk into the main town (Agios Nikolaos) and lovely taverna close to the hotel and on the beach

Went in October and there were lots of sunbeds available around the pools

We were delighted w our room w its own private pool. Buffet food was super and easy to change for lunch instead of dinner. Staff were very polite and helpful. Facilities were clean and well maintained

Beach near the hotel was perfect. We hope to go back next year!

Pools weren't heated so felt very cold but got used to it! Food was good but would have liked more Greek dishes and more vegetarian options - but there was always enough to eat

The point that we didn’t like that much was the bathroom in our room, a little bit small with a small cabin shower, no individual hygiene products such as shampoo or bathing gel and there was no much attention to the fact of refilling the products available

Our friends had a large suite on the ocean which was nice, But a very long walk to pool and restaurants

Amazing food (actually too good). 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

The hotel has lovely grounds, lots of greenery, this Bungalow opens out to the water. The area is framed by wonder, placed modern sculpture Greek painters from the art collections of sculptures

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

Fantastic hotel, one of the best we’ve been to. Place is quiet, full of families with very well behaved children, teen children, and couples looking for a relaxing time

luxury in greece great place , loads of space and its own beach and beds by the sea. amazing breakfast in the morning.

If you carried on walking straight on instead of turning right there were more shops and then after about a 20 minute walk from the hotel bungalows was the lake, restaurants and where you could get a boat to Spinalonga, the Happy Train and the semi submarine, The rooms at the Ariadne are large, lots of storage and a big balcony with side sea views

Not far to walk to the two pools although steep in parts but manageable and buggy’s were around the resort. The swimming pools aren’t heated like most aren’t abroad but were amazing to have a good swim in and never busy

The location was excellent about 10 minutes flat walk along a promenade to a lovely large sandy beach- Almyros beach or a pebbly beach just in front of the hotel

The town was about a 10 minute walk through a residential area before the start of some shops or a walk towards the sea, tavernas, shops and the marina

The ladies on reception couldn’t do enough to help especially Maria. Always helpful and with a smile. The spa and staff were excellent. I had two massages and facials which were amazing the products organic and Cretian

Oversaw the area brilliantly everyone felt special and looked after he is a legend. George is also amazing and excellent at his job and in quieter moments it was so interesting to talk to them both

The beach near hotel is extremely quiet but does have free sunbeds, we preferred to walk to Amoudi beach 10 mins away which has a few tavernas nearby but sunbed hire is quite pricey

Restaurant is very expensive for what it is in the evenings and even the staff are clearly embarrassed about that. OTOH they did lay on a free hot meal for late arrivals which wasn't expected but was greatly appreciated

Nice hotel outside the centre of town but close enough to still get in easily and with some local shops and tavernas close by as well

At night only the promenade area is lit so use a torch for the last bit. However a taxi back is only 8 euros. The bus to Elounda stops just around the corner from the hotel and only costs 2 euros

Staff were always polite and helpful. Room was clean, well furnished and had a lovely sea view

Nice atmosphere and views, spacious and quiet, 14+ affects Agios Nikolaos is a watch not to see the city

Jeanett in “the baaaaa” makes a fantastic G&T 😍 The room with a seaview is recommendable. The breakfast is also great and every morning they make small changes in variation. The homemade lemonade is really tasty

Lovely hotel just a short walk to promanade and beach, then 15 minute walk into town. The hotel is very clean and all the staff friendly. Have stayed here many times before but had not been for 7 years

We arrived at 3am and were greeted by Nikos who was friendly and had cold bottles of water and a quick check in ready for us! The pool is lovely, never too crowded and gets the sun all day (but there are plenty of shaded options too)

Felt right at home as soon as we got to hotel the welcome we got. George George and Van still as helpful with whatever you need

The staff make this hotel, from the men at reception to the breakfast ladies and bar staff, Sally and Jeanette - who makes an outstanding Aperol Spritz! The rooms are clean and the air conditioning is well worth it

Lovely Jeanette is still doing lovely food at lunchtime and keeps the conversation flowing around the bar of an evening. Good selection of tastey food on offer at breakfast served with a smile by staff

The view of the sea is a fantastic start to any holiday/day. The staff are extremely helpful and kind

Perfect location near to the beach, sea view and possibility to eat breakfast on the terrace is perfect! Rooms are outdated but the price is adequate.

Travelled to this hotel as a last minute escape. The poor gentleman that greeted me had to wait up as my flight and transfers got me to the hotel minutes before 3am

He was so friendly and welcoming despite the late arrival. I had a beach facing room and drifted off to sleep and woke up by the sound of the waves. Breakfast is adequate and varied. Something for everyone I would say

The hotel is central to the beach, marina, restaurants, supermarkets, tour operators for day trips, boat trips, a local bus, touring train. If you're thinking about visiting this amazing hotel

I would advise that you get a private transfer, especially if there are a few of you and you can share the cost. Apart from that, I'd highly recommend this beautiful gem of a hotel. For my first visit to Crete and Greece

Overlooking sports running track and the sea. Wish there was instructions how to use the minipool. Our fault we could have asked. We found a sandy beach close by too. Visit Jollies bar a few doors along

Monique was wonderful, so helpful and friendly. The location was great for beaches and town. Pool was out of action which was a little disappointing

This is a very nice hotel near the marina, a bit away from the chaos of the center of A. but still close to restaurants, the beach, etc. The perfect location in my opinion. The hotel staff were very welcoming and helpful

Had a 2 night stay in the Deluxe Double Room with seaview and minipool. The room is spacious and nicely decorated. Large balcony area which had sun loungers, table and chairs plus the minipool

We spent quite a bit of time on that deck. Breakfast was very good as well. Good selection of foods in a nice room. t try the pool or spa so can't comment on those facilities

The room was good, however the bathroom needs renovating (the shower was leaking and the toilet seat was too short for the toilet). Overall, it was a good hotel and I would stay there again

There's a lovely bar area by reception that leads straight out to the pool so you can grab a drink sit back and relax on one of the comfortable sun loungers

To there's also fresh bread and rolls to choose from and a vast array of dried fruit and even cakes and doughnuts. This is an adult only hotel so if you are looking for a romantic break this place is definitely for you

I am going to miss this place so much, the staff is really friendly and the room we booked was literally the best. You got the sunrise every morning, it's magical. Would definitely go back there

A very nice hotel situated overlooking the bay in agios Nikolaos. Rooms are light and airy with rooms cleaned on a daily basis with fresh towels

The staff is super pleasant and available. Evening meals change every day (be careful, it's very generous for small and medium appetites 😉). Super nice swimming pool with a beautiful view of the sea, beach nearby

The only downside is a cramped shower (standard room with sea view). But that did not detract from the beauty and tranquility of this stay

Top of my review must be Angela and George who work on reception, they are both really friendly and helpful, they advised us where to eat, the best beaches, places of interest to visit, Angela even found me a good shop to purchase a lovely handbag, nothing was too much trouble! A room with a sea view is a must, the view from our balcony was beautiful

A cleaner visited the room every day. You can eat well at breakfast, although the offer is pretty much the same every morning. There is no swimming pool, but the beach is wonderfully close

The location of El Greco Hotel is great. It's worth taking a room with a sea view, otherwise you end up seeing a hole-like courtyard, which, however, has plants

The location of the hotel is 10+. Recommend to book seaview room👍

The room was cleaned every day. The ladies who done breakfast always welcomed us every morning with a cheery greeting and a nice choice of buffet. The hotel is in the best location just a short walk to everything

Thank you the time on my birthday! I hope just the view like that on my holiday and I got it! The people in your hotel were lovely! Greetings! I liked to sit on your balcony or on the terrace near just now, (temperature here is +7 C): I hope I could come back some day

Our travels to Crete were a bit rough and it was so refreshing to have a nice shower and meal once we got there The staff was INCREDIBLE and treated us so well. Definitely worth visiting again!!!

It was a great hotel, 5 minutes from a splendid beach. The staff was kind, non invasive, friendly and helpful. They have a swimming pool, some cute small dogs and very nice rooms with balconies

We stayed here in May 1986, it was owned by a family of Dad, Mum and 2 Sons aged about 8 & 12, they treated us like family we had a great time, We hope they are still there 😃❤️😃

The room was great the position right next to the beach but especially the staff ! The people that work there are very nice welcoming and always ready to help! Mihalis is a great person! We stayed one week and we will definetely come back

It’s just a short walk to the wonderful sandy beach of Almiros and a slightly longer walk into the picturesque town of Aghios Nikolaos

Hotel is in a very nice location, nearby a beautiful beach. Unfortunately, the rooms are too small, feel crowded with 3 people in them

The hotel is in a great location with the town centre and beach both very close and the seaview rooms offering an incredible view of the bay. The room itself was clean and comfortable

We rested at the hotel in early October 2025. First of all, I want to note the professionalism of the manager Tanzel - he will always tell you about the shops nearby, about the order in the hotel, etc

Regarding the hotel - Mistral bay has a great location - 1 coastline of the sea and near the town center - very convenient! The rooms after renovation - we really liked ours (especially the direct view of the sea)

The Hotel is in a brilliant position, close to the sea and a short walk to all the bars and restaurants and the lake. Also about a 20 min from a really lovely little beach

We stayed at the Mistral Bay Hotel and were very happy. The hotel is modern and the Premier Sea View room had the most amazing view. The beds were comfortable, the bathroom modern with a powerful shower

The overall impression is super good! And the price/quality ratio is mixed on the side of quality - and that's cool! I recommend Mistral bay 4 * and book rooms with a sea view!

Great place for families with children. If you have kids - take the seaview Suite away from the sandy beach. It's got its own stone pier, there are no children.

The location and the hotel setting is gorgeous. Loved it! We were with our child and my in-laws. We also could swim every day in the sea in the end of October - beginning November

I also want specifically to mention and thank the personnel. Despite we were in the end of the season, they were still so enthusiastic, so helpful, so polite and so simply nice after all these months of hard work

The guys at the receptions were stars! :) The ladies in the Kids Club, the staff at the reception, the people in the restaurants, the cleaning ladies, the Golf Car drivers (I hope I remembered them all) - everyone were so nice and helpful! We want to come back! THANK YOU!

Candia Park Village is one of those rare places that manages to combine authenticity, comfort, and natural beauty in perfect harmony. After two wonderful visits, we already know it won’t be our last

Everything was top! Can't think of anything that was wrong, honestly. We were there also during the Halloween, and our child had been upset to miss it in his hometown

It was walking, albeit a good 30-40 min, distance to town which was filled with cute cafes, shopping and fantastic dinner spots. The water was pristine, loungers comfy, beach bar perfect

One of the best things of this hotel is the beach, small but well maintained and with several access points to the water

Our stay at this hotel was fantastic, the property was spotless, architecture gorgeous, environment serene

The closest you'll get to heaven on Earth. Stellar property with a gorgeous pool, a secluded and private beach surrounded by loungers and plants and two amazing restaurants

It felt like a spa stay; the spa itself was nice though maybe not worth it for just the drop-in pools (the ‘sauna’ especially)

The serene atmosphere allowed me to truly relax, and the tasteful renovation added a fresh, authentic touch. The main pool offers breathtaking sea views, and the rooms with private pools are charming and comfortable

Couldn't fault the hotel clean tidy Rooms cleaned daily food was excellent! All staff very friendly and helpful especially Sophia a lovely lady and very hard working nothing was too much trouble Sophia on reception was very friendly and helpful gave us all the info we needed for trips busses etc Will definitely be going back The resort was lovely plenty of restaurants nice beach very chilled atmosphere...

Stayed for a week at the end of October. We booked a studio apartment and were given a sea view even though we hadn’t paid the extra for that! The apartment was lovely and the balcony was amazing

Huge and looking directly over the small shingle beach which was only a minutes walk away. The room was cleaned every day and we had clean towels and bedding twice during our stay. We booked the all inclusive package

Plenty of choice and always fresh and well cooked. However, if you are looking for a traditional all inclusive package, this is not it. The bar does not have staff on duty during the advertised hours

We only managed to get drinks on one night of our stay. The bar person also works in the restaurant and obviously can’t be in both places at the same time! However, if asked, he will go into the bar area to serve you

They have free maps which we found very helpful. The lake is about 5 minutes walk from the hotel. There are lots of pretty tourist shops also around few minutes walk from the hotel

It was my first time visiting Greece and I was definitely not disappointed. The environment is large and maintained. The food did not disappoint either. There are several pools, not one or two bars

We liked the bar the most, Nagy and Popi, the bartenders working by the pool just down from the reception. Very kind and attentive to everyone

Our two alacarte meals at pergola and the beach restaurant were excellent, not to be missed. Received a Nice going away present, Entertainment was good at the covered terrace bar

Covered bar next to reception not open through the day, bit of a con having only the pool bars open when the weather is bad, Only one bus a day to Heraklion 9

Not their fault it was raining. There is no indoor pool at Cretan village, surprising as it is so large. Nowhere for people to go when the sun is not shining

Perfect place! Adorable design, amazing view, tasty food, nice location! Everything was comfortable, apartments were clean, the personal was very nice and friendly! We will come back for sure! 💛
