Abaton Island Resort & Spa in Hersonissos

When you walk into the foyer, it is breathtaking. Clean minimalist lines, clearly designed by someone at the top of their game. The resort is spectacular, perched above a rugged coastline, it truly is luxurious. Our room (with a private pool) was very good, great bed and very clean. The pool was very cold in September but it was nice to sit near it. Strange thing was there are dividers between the pools to provide privacy, but only on every second room. We found that a bit strange.
The staff we encountered were great, yes service lacked occasionally, but overall we had nice people doing their best. The food was terrific, every meal we had there was excellent.
The hotel is a fair way from the airport and is clearly the best place in the area.
If you are planning on a lot of tours, it’s about 40 mins from the main city.
Overall, beautiful place, just a few tweaks required.

The best and most luxurious hotel we’ve ever stayed at! We truly felt at home. everyone was so kind and dedicated. The food was of exceptional quality, and the entire experience was amazing. We’ve already booked our next stay for next year!

A very smart hotel with excellent sea views and a lovely main swimming pool. You can have room with its own jacuzzi and garden, or one with a plunge pool or a share infinity pool.
The bath by the bed and open plan wash basin is a bit odd, and if you do feel like having a bath, it would take an absolute age to fill. The rooms are spotless but more attention to refilling teas coffee and replacement of towels would be better than the little treats left. We did not use the hotel for meals other than breakfast which was fabulous, a great range of food on offer. The only gripe about the pool area was that you had to use an app on your phone ( that didn't always work) or catch the attention of a server. The music was a little annoying and towers were not always available first thing, but on the whole, a great hotel.

Amazing, luxury hotel with amazing views surrounding the whole hotel. We went towards the end of September so it was quieter and the weather was still great.

Food at all the restaurants, including the breakfast and dinner buffet was amazing, some of the best we’ve had whilst away. Food at the restaurants can take a while to come, but it is because the food is freshly made and you can taste the difference.

The only downside and why I gave 4 star instead of 5 star is because of the lack of accessible free drinking water on the hotel. To me this is a basic human need especially whilst in the sun and should not be used to make money. On the hotel site it’s self you can drink small bottles of water in mini bar which are €3.50 each, or in the hotel shop there were only a few small bottles for €0.90. Please just make it easier for people to drink water. We walked to the supermarket a 5 minute walk away every day to buy big bottles of water.

We stayed in the luxury private pool seafront room which was incredible, waking up everyday to sit on our terrace with views of the beautiful beach and have our own pool overlooking it was very special. The beach was lovely, there is a small bit right in front of our room near the Elemis restaurant that is sandy and you can swim in.

Amazing customer service!

Really happy with our stay and the grounds are lovely too! We came for our honeymoon and were treated so well.

Nice lobby and nice staff. Good breakfast. That’s where the good ends. The hotel itself is quite old and in need of good renovation. There are some signs of limited updates, but overall the facility is showing its age. Overall, it feels like an old all inclusive hotel in Cancun that have seen its better days. The worst part is how the shower and sink and toilet are played out. Insanity. We wouldn’t pick it again if we were in Crete.

Beautiful hotel with great facilities, super friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast a real highlight, one of the best buffet breakfasts we have experienced. Delightful not to experience any of the usual sunbed challenges around the pool. Super windy weather made shade quite difficult though as staff stopped us putting up umbrellas and the access to the beach/sea was quite difficult. Games room was a great asset but could do with some love & attention as wasn’t a place you wanted to dwell in. Would highly recommend Abaton.

My wife and I recently stayed at Abaton Hotel for the second time, and this visit was even more special as it was our first time traveling with our baby. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfect. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable.

The hotel itself is stunning, with beautiful decor and well-maintained facilities. Our room was spacious, clean, and had all the amenities we needed, including a crib for our baby. We were pleasantly surprised when the hotel upgraded our room, adding an extra touch of luxury to our stay. The attention to detail was impressive, and we felt truly pampered throughout our stay.

One of the highlights of our visit was the exceptional service provided by the staff. They were always friendly, attentive, and ready to assist with any request. Whether it was providing recommendations for local attractions or ensuring we had everything we needed for our baby, the staff's dedication to guest satisfaction was evident.

Overall, our experience at Abaton Hotel was nothing short of amazing. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a luxurious and family-friendly getaway. We can't wait to return for another memorable stay.
