Hotels with beach in Crete

And finally, all of the staff (receptionists, waitresses, cleaners…) were so kind, attentive, and accommodating, and they made us feel welcome and safe

The hotel area is beautiful and quiet, and the breakfast and dinner were excellent with a variety of local dishes in addition to more generic choices

The breakfast buffet was outstanding, the staff at all locations in the hotel were very friendly and welcoming

Literally the best hotel experience ever!!

Clean room, excellent staff, great spa

The hotel is in a great location, 19 minutes from the airport. The bathroom was small for our family of four. The buffet restaurant was average, and the food was pretty much the same every day

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

Incredible hotel, lovely cliff side sun beds and excellent staff

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)

Of course I wasn’t expecting free comps or any fireworks but you’d think they’d send a congratulatory drink or a piece of cake or just something to celebrate this occasion

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

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

Through my travel agency business I politely asked for upgraded rooms and we were not disappointed. We were given 3 rooms at the front of the pool, which were without a doubt the best rooms in the hotel

Wonderful stay spotlessly clean , room beautiful staff friendly the vip night was brilliant and loved the food in filema, plenty of sunbeds at the hotel and the waterpark, loved the free sunbeds on the beach opposite, ⛱️ this is my second visit to stella village and yes I would return thankyou to all the staff who all work so hard

We’ve just returned from an incredible stay at Stella Village and I honestly couldn’t fault this hotel from start to finish

Loved the cocktails, well made and some of them very strong Lots of sunbeds to be had at most times of the day, including the beach area, people tended to adhere to the “no reservation” rule

Hotel is well situated, we went out twice during our stay for food around the small town. Beach across from the hotel is good, pretty clean and really shallow, kids loved snorkeling as lots of fish

The hotel itself was spotless throughout, and every member of staff we encountered was beyond helpful and genuinely friendly. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and the service really stood out

Fabulous week at the Filion Suites Resort and Spa. The location is stunning and Bali Beach is certainly breathtaking

Our stay at Filion Suites Resort & Spa was absolutely wonderful! The hotel is located in a beautiful, peaceful area with breathtaking views of the mountains — a perfect place to relax and unwind away from the crowds

A big thanks to Regina and her reception team who were always helpful with everything we needed. The staff at the restaurant, bar and the cleaning staff were all friendly, welcoming and efficient

We definitely feel like this place is our second home, and we are already planning to return next year! Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a wonderful and welcoming experience

The service was outstanding—every staff member was incredibly kind, helpful, and always smiling. They really go above and beyond to take care of the guests

Every evening, there were fun activities in the hotel, adding to the lively atmosphere. The hotel was spotless, and cleanliness was clearly a priority

This hotel provides the highest level of attention to detail and service. One of our favorite stops in Greece. We stayed in the bed and breakfast special, and paid for our dinners which were reasonably priced

We had an amazing time at Nana Princess. The staff and general service levels were outstanding and felt very personal. The hotel and resort is relatively new so everything was modern and of a high standard

We dined in the Meat at the Point restaurant, and enjoyed the quinnoa rocket salad, steak, and mushroom risotto. We truly enjoyed the private pool, ocean view, and room service options

Excellent hotel Excellent hotel. True 5 star. The room, was very clean and beautifully decorated with a private pool. The customer service was amazing.

Attentive, always happy and chatting with an approach that felt genuine and not because they were told to. One if the best hotels we’ve ever stayed in

Fantastic stay at Nana Princess Suites. We stayed in a private pool room with an ocean view. We had a wonderful experience from check-in to check-out

I had to write a review for this amazing hotel! I had 5 days here with my grown up daughter. Everything was amazing! If you can, book the pool rooms…what a treat! The gym was well kitted out and not too busy

The overall cleanliness throughout the property was also great. Rooms, public areas, and even the pool spaces were spotless and clearly well cared for (the beach could do with a little maintenance)

The staff are all super friendly, and do all they can to make your stay memorable. We stayed half board in a room with a private pool and terrace

The taxi back was €10 so good value. Defo take cash as some restaurants wouldn’t take card. We would definitely return to this fabulous place

I loved the interaction with staff and other guests at breakfast and dinner. Food was varied and of good quality

We recently stayed at this hotel as part of a family holiday, in which we shared many of the same observations as others, but our main call out is that our overall impression was hindered, and this very much came down to the moment we checked out

If you prefer the beaches outside the resort, there are beautiful beaches that you can visit. Apart from the restaurant area, where we noticed certain things, the rest of the person was very helpful and kind

The hotel boasts a stunning location, blending naturally into the surrounding mountains right on the seashore. Relaxing by the pool, you can enjoy the surf

Three pools offer plenty of choice, along with a picturesque beach and stunning views

Shallow beaches in beautiful bays and other interesting places to visit are a 10-15-minute drive away

The staff was friendly and helpful, the food was excellent, offering a selection of traditional Greek dishes, as well as fish and several meat options daily, delicious desserts, a selection of salads, and several types of cheese

The pools are very nice although some of the sunbeds need an upgrade I’ve not had an issue to find one. The little cove beach is beautiful and really handy right there

The best hotel in Rethymnon. Very spacious and nice rooms, clean and tidy. The service was excellent and the staff very friendly. Third time we are staying here. The private beach is also great.

Had a great massage & facial at the Meldody Spa. Kindly helped by Nicol, Alex and Christina. I would definitely recommend it!

We have just returned from an excellent stay at Ikones Seafront Luxury Suites. The location of the hotel was fantastic being right in front of the beach

Everything was perfect!!! From the location, services, staff, food, amenities, private beach, EVERYTHING!!!! Every night at the bar was another show (live music, dj),

The staff were all wonderful with a high level of service. Nothing was too much trouble for them to make our stay a good one. Food in the buffet restaurant was excellent and there was variety and choice in abundance

The long flat promenade was ideal for my wife who has some mobility issues as she was able to walk easily with her rollator. Our room was very comfortable and well appointed with modern fixtures and fittings

It was gorgeous—spacious, comfortable, and came with a heated private pool overlooking the most beautiful bay with crystal-clear water. Waking up to that view every morning felt unreal

Lovely sandy beach with a grassy shore and plenty of well-maintained sunbeds. We enjoyed sunbathing and swimming there every day. However the dining options were very poor

Excellent suite (a beachfront junior suite with private pool). It was spacious and well-furnished, with a sitting are inside and table and chairs and loungers outside

Everywhere you look, it’s just beautiful—sparkling water, immaculate grounds, and such a calm atmosphere. Overall, we had the best time at Elounda Peninsula. It really is a little slice of paradise

We spent so much time in the pool, it was just perfect. Our girls also loved the kids club. The team there were brilliant—super kind, fun, and full of great activities each day

We’re already talking about when we can come back. Highly recommend for families looking for a luxurious, chilled, and memorable holiday in Crete!

Wonderful stay at Kassavetis Center! We had a great experience during our stay at Kassavetis Center. The location is perfect — close to everything you need, from the beach to shops and restaurants

We had a wonderful stay! The hotel is perfectly located, with the beach and everything you might need just a short walk away. The sea view from our room was absolutely stunning

The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the facilities were well-maintained. A special thanks to the reception team, who were always friendly, welcoming, and ready to help with anything we needed

I stayed at the hotel for 7 nights during last year and booked a city view room. The room was spotless and well-maintained, with a stunning view of the city square

Their hospitality truly made a difference in our trip. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Hersonissos!

evererything was good like always.perfect location and nice people

What can I say Wow what a great holiday my husband and I had , from the management to the chambermaids we were made so welcome nothing was too much for the staff specially John and Maria , we will be coming back 100% Miss Lou and Keith

Really good food in the evening. Every wednesday really good live music with a choice of fresh fish or steak (you also can choose from the menue if you like). Breakfast ok but room to improvement

The hosts are really nice, friendly and made a good Service. Air condition costs extra but it is ok if you need it. Location near by the sea and also a Pool and a nice taverne at the hotel

Near by many tavernes and shopping locations. We dont need more than we had and had a really nice vacation at this hotel :) big thank you to everybody that make it a great vacation for us

What an amazing experience! The super kind staff made us feel like kings . It was our home away from home for the last week. Looking forward to come back in September

Amazing location. Food and drinks were excellent...Guest oriented and polite staff! I would definitely recommend it. See you soon!

The gentleman who runs the bar is also very welcoming. Beach towels are provided and there is no charge for sun loungers

We are just back from a week’s stay. The decor is modern and stylish, especially the bar, pool and restaurant area which is at the top of the hotel with views over the beach. The rooms are very nice and spacious

Toiletries and towels are provided. There is a lovely central courtyard where movies of your choice can be projected in the evening. Breakfast is varied with all the usual options and more

The service is really slow, you can wait up to an hour for your food but just order then go back to your sunbed ! They will bring it to you on your sunbed if you want

If you want to eat out, there are lots of restaurants within walking distance and the surrounding area is buzzy. We had booked another nearby hotel, owned by the same company

As it was nearing the end of the season we were upgraded to the Atermono. Couldn’t be happier with the service

Excellent Services and Wonderful Experience I had an amazing stay at Nostos Beach Boutique Hotel in Crete. The services were 7absolutely excellent — everything was well organized, clean, and very professional

Hotel is located at the beach, no need to go far. Swimming pool right in front of your balcony, hotel staff is doing the best all the time to meet your requirements, very pleasant people

Meal is excellent, great choice every day, various menu, the chef is so hard working and dedicated to his job. The beach is rather small, but lots of bars and restaurants makes it less unbearable

Big and varied buffet breakfast and buffet dinner is excellent too (€10) or eat at the restaurant/bar downstairs on the sea front. Beach is brilliant with water sports and table service

Excellent hotel in Bali, Crete. Its on the best beach in Bali, Crete. The breakfast was excellent with a lot of choice, great a la carte food , frendlly and helpful staff

I had an absolutely amazing stay at this hotel. The atmosphere was calm, welcoming, and trustworthy, making us feel comfortable from the very first moment

The hotel is on the opposite side of a busy road from the beach but if you walk left from the road for a few minutes there is a pedestrian underpass and there are bus stops right outside the hotel to take you to Chania and Rethymno

The bus stop is pretty close by, making daytrips within comfortable reach and it's only a five to ten minute walk to the beach. Alltogether the whole experience has been great

Staff decent and food completely acceptable. The main thing to be aware of is the proximity of the National road, and the fact you have to cross Tia very busy road to get to the beach or the bus stop

A smaller hotel with beautiful and clean rooms. The food is very varied and tasty. ) Very friendly and helpful staff. Elton from the hotel restaurant, a very nice person, as well as his family who also work in the hotel

We spent a week at the Delfina ART hotel. We are very pleased with the entire stay. The rooms are large, spacious and clean. I especially recommend the rooms on the first floor with a beautiful view of the mountains

Very good room service, everything was perfectly clean. Been very much satisfyed by the food as well

But for some reason, this hotel charges a 10-euro deposit when you give out towels, which you get back when you return them. Bottled drinking water is only provided upon check-in; they don't refresh it after that

Great location, near to the beach, center and bus stop. The room was good but there was no daylight during the day (economic room). It has been cleaned every day

Towels are changed every other day

They took care of everything – from upgrading our rooms, recommending excellent restaurants, and assisting us with every request we had. Their warmth, kindness, and personal attention truly made us feel at home

Our stay at Kahlua Boutique was absolutely perfect! The location is unbeatable – just 10 meters from the sea, offering stunning views and the sound of the waves right at your doorstep

Our rooms had a breathtaking sea view, were clean and comfortable, and we enjoyed every moment. A very special thanks to *Maria* and *Athena* , who made our holiday unforgettable

Incredible Crete at its best! Stunning boutique hotel with a private intimate beach, gorgeous rooms with special touches including private jacuzzis and pools, but what sets Island Concept even further apart is it’s incredible staff/hosts that provide genuine superb hospitality

We made this our last stop after a month in Europe, skipping between UK, Ireland and Spain. We deliberately asked our travel agent for somewhere blissful to chill/eat/cocktail/swim/repeat after a busy 4 weeks

Mariana has a smile for every situation and Fortini especially served us with knowledge of wines and helped whenever we needed assistance. The pool and private beach are both special

The staff were warm and helpful. The resort was small so not too busy, poolside drinks were great, as was the included breakfast. Lovely town for shopping and lunch or dinner a 5 minute drive away

First class boutique hotel, with excellent staff. The hotel is quiet, with a wonderful small private beach. The rooms are well equipped with modern touches that enhance your stay

Absolutely amazing hotel and staff - very calm and quiet atmosphere and nothing was too much trouble for them. The only one tiny annoyance was there were often kids running around and jumping in the pool making noise etc

We felt right at home. The pools are fantastic, large, and always clean. Stavros beach is within walking distance, just a few minutes away. The staff is wonderful, always kind and ready to help with any need.

The hotel is owned by a family that goes above and beyond to ensure that your stay is as exceptional as possible. Additionally, the nearby beach, which is only a five to ten-minute walk away, is fantastic

They have a huge pool which I did not have time to use. It’s a short walk (15mins) to the beach where there are a few restaurants. i had a fantastic meal down there

The location is convenient for reaching the most beautiful beaches in the western area of ​​the island, you need a car. Great location if you are flying from Chania airport

I am curious to know if it’s usually this quiet or maybe just getting to the end of the summer season considering the amount of deck chairs around the place and the size of the pool which I could have had all to myself

Her passion comes thru to ensure your every need is met!! Location is great!!!! Close to Soudo Naval Base, Airport, villages with excellent food, the beach, Triada Monestary, Hiking trails and so much more!!! I will definitely come back just to stay here and see more of Crete

Across the street you can find trip agency Klados where you can buy tickets to Samaria, Balos beach and other places for a good price. All info you can ask in reception - they will help :))

Wonderful place for a holiday. the hotel is right next to the beach, sea view, quiet place ... In one word, fabulous!

Tidy, cozy, pleasant, not the most modern, but perfect value for money. The hotel has its own beach, the sea is clean and very warm (August). The staff is very kind and friendly. Maybe a mistake: wifi is very weak

amazing scenery,beautiful food great service ,always happy to help in fact they bend over backwards. They bring your drinks to u always smiling could not say anything else apart from totally amazing

Easy to get to Rethymno with the bus, tickets you can buy in every (as they call :))) Super market. Car rent across the street/good price. Food is OK, if you are not expecting much

It`s a very nice and clean place to stay, very good for stay with kids. Hotel is located near to the sea, it`s not far from the old town of Rethymno

Zeta at the bar is cheerful, professional and makes awesome cappuccino! The atmosphere is delightful and the room is very comfortable, but the views, the pool, and a beautiful little beach make this a destination I would highly recommend to anyone looking for an affordable family friendly stay at one of the most beautiful Mediterranean destinations I've ever seen

Zorbas Hotel Beach Village is a little gem which lies on the beautiful part of the Akrotiri peninsula in Chania, unspoilt natural area with stunning views of the Cretan Sea and the unforgettable sunsets and located ideally right on a sandy beach of private land

Approximately 30 minutes from the centre of Chania, you enter a location which is peaceful, picturesque a serene setting but well worth a stay in these attractive single storey apartments

Most of the units are well proportionate, beds are of a good size, mattresses and pillows are comfortable and clean, well designed with gardens, paths, secluded sitting areas and BBQ leading to a wonderful pool area which is extremely clean and comfortable sunbeds and pool bar

This was truly a wonderful and surprising place. Aside from the beauty of the location (literally on the beach), the service was fantastic and the personal care was evident everywhere

Through a series of unfortunate events, I ended up in Chania with no accommodations

This apartment was okay to sleep in, it was in a quiet area with quick access to outside amenities (beach, taverna, groceries)

Also can't comment on the breakfast but other guests appeared to enjoy it. Fab area, easy access to Agios Nikolaos and Elounda. Yvonne from reception was very approachable and helpful

We had a wonderful stay at Mirabella Apartments. The studio was comfortable and had everything we needed. The ocean views from our balcony were beautiful

My husband swam over a mile each morning right in front of the property. Also, the staff were super friendly. One added bonus was the ping pong table. We played quite a few fun games

Very nice place to spend holidays. Decent quiet area, sea view from every apartment, clean rooms, friendly staff (feeling like between family) local shop with most needed products. Highly recommended.

The view was stunning, however, we were unable to enjoy any time on our deck given the area directly underneath and beside our balcony was reserved for people who sat and chain smoked from morning to night every day
