Hotels with aquapark in Crete

🏠 Our Rooms We stayed in a Double Room with a Sea View – spacious, clean, and well-equipped with a fridge, microwave, TV, safe, and plenty of sockets. The balcony had a great view of the Olympic pool and sea

The hotel was spotless throughout, and every member of staff we encountered was friendly, helpful, and clearly worked very hard to keep everything running smoothly

One of the best resorts we’ve ever encountered: amazing food variety and quality, competent and friendly staff, excellent facilities, great beach and pools, convenient location.

The beach is amazing, the pools are very nice and clean, the staff and dining was great, we had an amazing time and we’re very happy that we booked this resort for two weeks!

The resort is huge so although it was full, you couldn’t feel it. Nice activities, lots of pools, you can always find a spot with a sun bed in one of the pools

There are 5 restaurants, 4 bars, and plenty of facilities, including tennis courts, a gym, and a water park

The facilities are great but many people still used towels to reserve sunbeds even though the resort states towels will be removed (they were not). We traveled in October half term and were very lucky with the wether

The staff at the Enomy main buffet restaurant were mostly okay but many staff were rude or not attentive at all (we sat waiting for cutlery and to be asked our drinks order for ages and then had to try and find someone)

Really great beautifully decorated communal areas and a really classy bar with great cocktails. Everything was just SO easy and pleasant so we could concentrate on spending time together as a family and having fun

This is a lovely resort, really quite unique as it's like being in a village. There are 7 restaurants which is nice as you can have a different dinner experience instead of the buffet all the time

We loved the day activities, especially the watergym where we went twice a day. We havent set a foot outside the hotel which means how great the hotel was

Most staff we came across were friendly and helpful, especially at the bars and reception

The hotel is lovely, yes it does get busy with families in school holidays but that can be said of many places, the staff are all fantastic and nothing is too much trouble for their guests

We love them all and in all of our travels we have never found anywhere quite so comfortable and that makes us feel like we are at home while we are away. We will see you all next year

We stayed 4th to 14th September 2025 and as always our stay was fantastic

Another slight gripe was the mini-bar in the room was not always topped up and there was a charge for crisps and Nuts! Comfy bed and a great shower in the bathroom made for a comfortable stay, but do take a multi pot adapter, as there are not many sockets

You could get lunch bookings fairly easily, but the breakfasts were huge, so we skipped lunch most of the times. The food was generally very good and the service fantastic, considering how busy they were

People have mentioned that some of the rooms are dated which I don't understand because the room we booked was pretty much the same as the one pictured on the hotels and Jet2 s websites

The grounds, staff, food, views, all amazing. Our private pool was in shade all of the time but it's probably in sin during the summer months. Lots of mosquitos so plug ins are a must

We were also disappointed that we couldn’t get even one night at the à la carte restaurant, especially since the hotel was nearly closing for the season in late October

We had a fabulous 4 night stay in a 3 bedroom maisonette (upgrade from 2 bedroom maisonette). We were 2 adults and a teenager staying in the last week of the season in October

When we gave our feedback, the guest relations lady didn’t take it very well and rather bluntly mentioned that no other guests had complained about the limited meat options — we felt this was a bit rude and dismissive

The reception and restaurant staff were exceptionally welcoming and friendly — they really made us feel at home from the moment we arrived

The only downside, and the reason for giving 4 instead of 5 stars, was the limited variety of meat options in the main restaurant

We didnt try the restaurants and stuck with Buffet which a wide range and variety of dishes - even Chinese! The cakes and desserts were exemplary! Drinks wise kids were happy with sodas and we drank the Minoan Era lager which we really liked

I had a Spa Day and treatment - staff were excellent, sauna and jacazzui lovely. On a duller day took kids to the Aquarium which was good and only 30 min walk e/w along the seafront

It seems they focus on little kids, and there's nothing for the 8 to 12 years old. The gym didn't have an aircon, was extremely hot, and was not comfortable to train

My family and I had a lovely holiday at Gouves. The staff were excellent, particularly Maria at Poseidon Bar who could not do enough for us

Food was excellent: I have two fussy eaters and they could always find something to eat at the Buffet

We came in April and it majority of facilities as to WHY we chose this hotel are closed and not available - play area for kids, indoor pool closed due to construction

Fortunately, the mini disco is a bit away from the main restaurant and, although we are here with a small child, we really appreciated having a room far away from the hustle and bustle of the kids' pool and mini disco

Great resort in a quiet area with a private beach with free sun loungers, beach bar and swimming pool Rooms were nice and spacious, housekeeping stuff was friendly and always wanted to help with anything

Minor renovations are needed (for example, the indoor pool), but in general everything is still usable and good value for money

There were always enough sun chairs both at the pool and the beach! A total recommendation if you look for a family vacation!

There were many options for lunch and dinner and the breakfast buffet was amazing. It’s very family friendly there and there are activities for children and adults. It was a beautiful walk to Georgiopolis on the beach

It's a bit of a shame that the all-you-can-eat nature of the restaurant means that the cuisine is somewhat underappreciated. Because a lot of it is really well made and above average! Everything is clean

The water activities options and their maintenance is very good

We have just booked to come again in 2026 which will be around our 18th holiday to this hotel. We have always loved coming here. The changes that have been made over the last few years are huge

The team at the Greek restaurant helped surprise my husband with a birthday cake on our first night too. My sons loved the water slides and pool and the evening entertainment was fun

Our favourite was the white party disco. Although the location is remote and there isn’t a lot to do in the local area the hotel is big enough without feeling trapped. We would definitely visit again

We loved it before but now it’s brought a whole new level. There is so much choice and everyone is catered for in my opinion. The hotel is very clean and tidy

The food is very good and better than a lot of 5 star resorts we have visited. The A’la carte Greek and Asian restaurants are amazing with the food and service excellent

Nice enough for families, great options for pools. Our kids loved the waterpark and hitting the football pitch each night with other kids from around the world

We have had a great time at this hotel. Plenty of great dining options, multiple swimming pools, sea access was great

Lovely hotel for a family holiday. Between the pools, water park and beach our water babies were in heaven; with the inclusively priced cocktails we were too! Delicious and great range of food in the buffet

We just had our second family holiday at Marine Palace and were once again very happy with everything. The location, the food and service is great!

The only slight negative we found was the lack of lactose-free yoghurt, which was surprising given the multitude of options otherwise

Perhaps the biggest highlight was the staff, they were lovely and super helpful any time we needed anything

We were guests in this Hotel for 7 days. Superior Hotel, clean and nice. Our rooms comfortable with a nice view to the Pools. Food & Beverages tasteful and always enough

We were very lucky to revieve an upgrade on our room which had a pool!

Great food, friendly staff, drinks are amazing and the bar staff takes their time to prepare them, beautiful beach and the spa was very relaxing. My daughter and I enjoyed our facials!

The massage here was really good. I was treated by Albora, she was very friendly and polite, and the massage was perfect. The products smell amazing. Highly recommended!!!

I visited the spa with my daughter for the Cretan masssage. We both thouroughly loved this and would recommend. Albora is very good.

We booked a different hotel and really didn’t feel comfortable so found this place and transferred here the same night of check in

There are 5 swimming pools, including a mini waterpark for children, making the resort perfect for families, fully reflecting the SOL by Meliá brand standards

Lovely hotel,fantastic staff john is a lovely entertainer, only thing we found is not much english food too much French. Rooms cleaned daily, clean hotel and pool

Aspa and other lady at the cocktail bar were very sweet. There is Gym, Nice little shop inhouse, Swimming pools. Kitchen manager was very professional

The hotel beach is clean and well equipped, with sunbeds and umbrellas included, as well as beach volleyball and football courts

The only small downside is that the indoor pool, open during the colder months, is unfortunately not heated

Would be an idea to have fridges round hotel with bottles of water

I loved this resort! I recommend the all exclusive pack if you want to have a good stay! The kids loved the water park everything was fantastic! Especially the food!!!!! I really recommend this resort it has THE BEST view etc

The rooms are amazing, the staff upgraded us and we had our own plunge pool which was a nice bonus. The spa facilities are brilliant and the massages are amazing. Will definitely be staying here again

The restaurant was open at almost any time and there were basically no restrictions. The kids loved the water slide. Although it was not big, there were not many people and they could enjoy it

Fantastic stay Amazing stay! It’s got the environment, pool, food, children’s play area and waterpark

Very nice hotel, perfect pool access suite. Luxury family-friendly hotel with a fantastic kids' club team! The children's water playground is fantastic

Very large and beautiful pool! The staff is very friendly! A little something for my daughter's 3rd birthday! The all-inclusive is very good! With the added bonus of à la carte dinners 👌 I highly recommend this hotel! We stayed 6 nights

Service throughout the hotel was amazing and cannot fault at all. The hotel is clean and well maintained. Beach is a pebble/rocky beach, this didnt bother us as we were happy by the pool

There's an astro pitch, tennis courts and arcades and pool table for other entertainment. Unfortunately, didn't get an opportunity to try the sushi bar but it looked really nice

Our second stay this year! Amazing hotel. I'd accidently booked the wrong room type, and we were upgraded for free. Giannis provided excellent service around the pool

The hotel itself is amazing with three pools and plenty of bars with four a la crate restaurants and a sushi bar alongside the main restaurant

The food at the restaurant was delicious, with plenty of options to choose from, and the breakfast buffet was one of the best I’ve ever had. The location was also perfect — close to everything, yet quiet and relaxing

The room was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had a stunning view. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the amenities were top-notch — from the high-speed Wi-Fi to the luxurious bathroom products

We had a lovely stay at this hotel. A 20-30min drive from Heraklion. Different pools to choose from and some water slides. Although the water was a bit on the colder side in October but we still swam

Can go to the beach too which is owned by another hotel but that's fine. Some people say the pool towels cost extra but the first one is free and you're free to use it throughout the week

Wonderful weeks break, the hotel location is a short walk into Stalis and on the beach. Plenty of pools to relax for adults or spend quality time with kids if a family

We came to the day spa, they have a private room with saunas, pool and a shower treatment. Rafaela was the most helpful and kind!

There's also a convienient laundry rack in the rooms. The food was fine, maybe needed some more salt at times. We arrived quite late and they even had a cold buffet waiting for us which we didn't expect!

Had a really wonderful massage with Rafaella. She knew exactly the pressure to use and so excited about coming back tomorrow. The venue is very relaxing and the staff very professional! Would recommend!

Nice hotel with nice people The food is fine not wow But great location , great pools close to the beach - 10 min walk

it was our first family holiday with our 1 year old. we had a really good time and our baby enjoyed it so much. We had a problem with a room and it was rectified immediately

The staff are amazing with children and are super friendly. We felt really at ease and safe

Pool fresh sea water and cleaned daily was so refreshing after the warm sun with plenty of sun beds to choose from and kids loving the slides. Food was tasty and so much choice for all including 2 fussy eaters

The hotel's outstanding quality is its staff. The reception is very professional. I'm thinking especially of Maria at reception, who was incredibly helpful and saved our stay by finding a suitable room for my mother

People in Crete, in general, are grumpy. Im talking about local people not but stranger workers. I've rarely seen anything like it. On the other hand, the foreign workers are always polite and helpful

All seemed a bit dramatic, not bothering anyone and cleaning was done early morning and then water tested throughout the day when people were swimming. Nobody was near the breakfast area either

Really comfy hotel room. Friendly check in and helpful staff. Nice location short walk to the beach. Sea view from balcony. Delicious breakfast!

Pool area and bars is as you would like it

The pool bar seemed to charge different prices when they changed staff for the evening shift. Mostly the staff were OK but one individual was quite rude to many of the guests in the dining room

The men's pool toilets should be closed off. Tiles broken and falling off the wall. As for the pool shower all I can say is Disgusting

The rooms were clean and well-maintained, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was relaxing and pleasant. I especially appreciated the helpfulness of the reception team, who were always ready to assist with a smile

I enjoy coming to Anemos everytime, nice resort, has aquapark, is next to the beach, rooms are well kept aaand they make very good cocktails in the bar above the lobby :)

From the moment we arrived till the moment we had to sadly leave, we were absolutely overjoyed with the resorts design, services, and food. We had room with our own pool and it was one of the best things you can imagine

Everything about this hotel was amazing from the rooms to the food and great staff. There is nothing bad to say all excellent We went with my Daughter and her Husband and would definitely go back

As to the entertainment, there was something for everybody and it was of a very high standard and so varied and suitable for an audience from many different lands. Last but not least, we were so impressed by the staff

The rooms were clean and spacious. Service was attentive and always available. Golf carts took us to their beach, you can also walk if you wanted. It was easier for us with our disabled adult family member

Staff great friendly, access to beach via a subway to get across Road etc ,door staff will give you a buggy ride ,both ways 😀 Would recommend

The water park is fantastic, with plenty of attractions for both kids and adults. Personally, I love coming in August, since the kids can fully enjoy their summer vacation

We had a wonderful time at the resort. We enjoyed the spa. The food was very good. We enjoyed the community cats also. We will be back. Nick was a very big help to us throughout our entire stay.

Food, staff, rooms and all facilities are great. Nothing is too much trouble for any of the staff. The swim-up was fantastic, quiet most of the time and waiter service to pool side was unexpected but appreciated

We stayed for a week in a suite with a private pool and loved it. The staff were excellent to a fault, especially the bar staff - couldn't rate them high enough

Private beach areas are lovely too. The water park for the granddaughter is great too

If you're going to Crete and want a 5 star resort then you should consider the Stella Palace. We didn't try the Aqua Park, but from the screams it sounded like everybody was enjoying themselves

Rooms were comfortable and air conditioned. Get a room with a private pool in it. Those rooms are centrally located in the resort and well worth it

It was a nice surprise! We were upgraded to a family suite with a large balcony and seaview, this made us very comfortable. Room was clean, A/C worked well, water was provided

A taxi from the airport to the resort was about 30 min and 45 Euros. I recommend coordinating with the resort to schedule your pickup prior to your arrival. Staff was excellent and accommodating

Be sure to go on all the elevators as they take you to different places. A rental car place and an ATV Quad excursion is economical and within walking distance to the resort

There’s also a seaside village not far from the resort with amazing restaurants and shopping. We walked to it and took a taxi back. The taxi ride back was only 10 Euros

Food in the buffet was varied and mostly good. Parking was a challenge for a first day. One of the beaches is not owned by hotel, so they require payment, a bummer!

The drinks were not very nice, the wine smelt funny and juice was watered down. Would definitely recommend going to Bali beach and doing the Santa Maria boat trip!!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful and comfortable family-run hotel. The staff were always polite, friendly, and eager to assist every guest with a genuine smile

Stayed for a week with my family at Atali in Bali. Bali is a seaside village situated in the heat of Crete. The hotel met all the expectations for a pleasant stay

The room standard was disappointing: old furniture, uneven walls, and the bathroom in very poor condition – old tiles, dirty grout, and water from the shower flooding the whole floor (with a squeegee provided to clean it ourselves)

The restaurant provided an impressive variety of dishes — from fresh seafood and meats to salads, fruits, and delicious desserts

I highly recommeend even with kids, they have animators and activities, pool, anything you might want or need. And the massage was the best I have ever had

There was a lack of sunbeds, so anyone who didn't put on a towel at 7 in the morning was just lying on the beach. And if by chance there was a deckchair left, it was out of order and you couldn't lie on it

We have struggled a bit with the cleaning service coming when our children had their afternoon sleep. But other than that we have had a great time. Food was delicious, every day there was something we liked

All the hotel staff were extremely friendly, polite, and helpful. The animation program was diverse and entertaining, creating a great atmosphere. The pool was always clean and well-maintained, perfect for relaxing

Big slides were opened only for s short time every day and only for older children

I went all inclusive and glad I did as it is a bit isolated ( 15 mins by bus to Irapetra for 2 Euros ) , I enjoyed the food so much that I had no urge to leave and try another place , the variety quality and was excellent , great salad bar and proper Greek main courses

We had an amazing holiday here and would like to share our experience. The accommodation was absolutely perfect – the rooms were clean, well-maintained, with regular housekeeping, and the maid was always kind and helpful
