Hotels with pool on first line in Crete

The pools were great, some reviews complain about finding a sunbed but we did not find this to be the case, perhaps it depends on other guests. At the beginning of our stay the sunbeds by the main pool were taken by 7

30 although there were still some by the jasmine and octopus pools however by the latter part of our stay there were still sunbeds available by 10

We arrived late at night so it was very beautiful, we really liked the lighted pools! However, when we got to our hotel room it was a little disappointment. The furniture of the room was very out dated and dirty

Just Got back from a 11 Day Stay Here, With My Husband, Enjoyed Our Stay , Rooms Were Very Spacious and Clean , Breakfast was Very Good, And Most Of The Staff Were Lovely, I Would Have To Be Honest, We Found The Older Barman Not The Most Welcome, But Everyone Else was

We slept with the aircon on and the fan which was no problem. We had no problem with getting a sunbed and usually didn’t get to the pool until after 10am

Every part of the pool gets the sun eventually throughout the day. The onsite supermarket is well stocked and there are plenty of supermarkets on the seafront. Breakfast is €14 and plenty to choose from

Room new, clean, AC, fridge, great balcony overlooking town & sea. Breakfast had fantastic choice, very fresh. Great value for what was paid overall. Bus station less than 5 mins walk to go elsewhere or to/from airport

10/10 hotel Excellent location. Room new, clean, AC, fridge, great balcony overlooking town & sea. Breakfast had fantastic choice, very fresh. Great value for what was paid overall

Great property, walkable with lots of dining options. Close proximity to beach and shopping. Public bus station less than 10 minute walk.

The hotel is conveniently located, and the rooms are very clean. Service is available 24 hours a day. The breakfast is good, with a reasonable selection and very fresh ingredients

Perfectly located hotel for a Chania City experience. Beside a great café and walking distance to the port and bus station. A very nice breakfast as part of the stay as well.

Bus station less than 5 mins walk to go elsewhere or to/from airport. Nothing to say negative, everything was perfect

Great location strip a 10 min walk and beach 15 mins from hotel. No fighting wars for a sunbed which was a massive bonus as this is always an issue when abroad. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be returning

Our last day here tomorrow, booked last minute via Jet2 for the May school holidays. The hotel is in a great location short walk to many bars and resturants, 3 pools with plenty of sun beds

We ate at the pool bar most days all very nice. All in all great value for money, first time in Greece and will definitely look to come back again

Food was average nothing special, Breakfast was good, dinner was quite repetitive could be more choice of deserts You have to pay if you want coffee or tea after dinner, even had to pay for a drink of water, I think that's very mean This hotel is suitable for the older person, as a lot of guests were50+ The pool area needed a good brush and mopping fag butt's everywhere

We booked half board as it was only 100 extra so just covering breakfast was my expectation however we have stayed a couple of evenings for the buffet dinner and it's been fine, with so many very reasonably priced resturants near by though we went out most days/nights

Great holiday,the reception staff were very friendly and happy to answer and rectify any issues especially Ahmed who went way and above expectations 😀 The rooms were slightly dated but large and cleaned daily which you can't fault

I find it hard to rate this hotel, because it is a bit of a mixed bag. The location is PERFECT, 50 m from the beach. The staff is very nice and helpful. The rooms are outdated, but mostly clean

The hotel staff is nice, the food is delicious, the pool is a bit shallow but suitable for swimming, the hotel's location is excellent, there are many places around the hotel where we can eat various delicious meals, there's also a supermarket nearby, and the beach is practically right under the hotel

They say this hotel is only 3 stars. Staff was super nice and friendly, food was great, reallyclose to the beach and many interesting places to visit by foot. I wish i could live there, can't wait to visit again

Good place, the sea is near, tasty food, enough clean

And the food is where this hotel is really lacking. Over cooked, and if you have food allergies, it's a no-no

The hotel is in a good location, just a few meters from the beach. The hotel is a bit older, the rooms are clean, the staff is friendly and ready to help.

The hotel is very nice and recommendable, not too big and a well-kept complex. The service is great, Maria Brazil and her colleagues are very friendly. A few minutes walk to the beach and the pool is fantastic too

They are friendly, attentive, and always have an open ear. We particularly want to mention Maria from the reception. She welcomed us warmly, is professional, and a wonderful person

We can only recommend this hotel to singles, couples, and others who want to travel away from package tourism. Thank you very much and see you next time

Thanks for everything! Especially for your kindness, dear Maria from the reception, Maria Brazil and all the other support from the crew. We hope to be able to come back soon!

There are no regular restaurants around the hotel that can meet the quality of food presented here! The employees are all so friendly and kind, giving you the best service and completing the whole holiday experience at the Kalypso hotel!!! We will return here again and can recommend it without any doubts…

The Kalypso in Malia - Crete is a little gem. The hotel is quietly located and the city center (party mile) can be reached in just a 15-minute walk

The sea beach is rocky, so you need sea shoes, and the waves were big, so it was not allowed to go into the water, but they got an own pool, where the kids can play. The daily room cleaning is really professional

I wish the hotel management will take care and keep the hotel as nice as it is today. Simple design, but with some art decorations. Nice pool area and reasonable sea entrance. Close to restaurant, shops or car rentals

The Maravel Star art is a really nice hotel. It is not too small and not too big, directly st the beach and it was renovated last year. We got one with ocean and pool view and the balcony was so big

The hotel is nice, new renovated and lies beside the sea, where the view is amazing. You can see the sunrise and the sunset from your balcony. The breakfast is good, the bar is fairly priced

EXCELLENT! CLEAN COMFORT FRIENDLY STAFF AND GREAT LOCATION! NOT TO MENTION THE POOL! WE ENJOYED OUR STAY SO MUCH AND 100% WILL BE BACK! THANK YOU

On the beach there is enough free space for own sun umbrella. During our stay there were pretty high waves which provided a lot of fun to me but they can be challenging for someone

The hotel is very well located, with a magnificent view of the sea and the town of Sitia. There's a rooftop pool, a friendly welcome, and private parking 300m away

Alternatively, you can enjoy the view of the harbor and the town from the rooftop pool, which is also a bit dated but very pleasant. There's also a nice rooftop bar where you can enjoy a drink while admiring the view

From the terrace, you can admire the main street overlooking the sea, the palm trees, and the sunrise, with the sun rising over the mountain on the right side of the gulf

It's a simple, slightly dated three-star hotel. However, the price-quality ratio is very good. Since the panoramic view is the highlight, we recommend booking a front-facing room overlooking the harbor

The rooms are simple, with a refrigerator and safe. The bathroom is in keeping with the hotel's construction date. The breakfast buffet is basic, but adequate

The lady at reception isn't particularly good at interacting with the public. Overall, a slightly dated hotel with a spectacular location and a good price

Great hotel with its own parking. There is a swimming pool and a great view of the city and the sea. Awesome diverse breakfast buffet. There is a game room, that we use to play chess and a gym (we didn't use it)

Highlights were the quality and taste of the food and the genuine friendliness of the staff. The staff really cares about the well-being of the guests. walk from the beach as well as old town

Great Hotel with nice view on Rethymno/sea side. Has a fitness center for free and a free parking area. Everything was clean and the personnel was friendly

Great hotel with very nice location in the town with a awesome view. Comfy beds, nice breakfast and pool bar. Totally recommended!

You can reach the city by foot through a special way next to the pool very fast

Excellent room, a bit small but for a couple it will do. Clean pool. Has also a children sector separate.

Free loungers and umbrellas for hotel guests and you could order drinks to your sunbed. Never busy when we were there. Nice sandy beach and shallow waters

Everything is modern in the room. Breakfast is good, but could be crowded and at these moments serving dishes are empty. Not enough staff to serve, clean, and prepare tables. We were there at the end of the season

Cannot imagine how they are operating in the season. Beach is nice but the water is shallow and you need to walk for a good 5 min to be able to go deep in the water. Beach chairs are very low and not really comfortable

Food in the restaurant is not something to write home about, but if you are on the beach, lazy to dress and go literally 2 small blocks to the main street, this restaurant is very helpful

The restaurants near the hotel had a huge variety of different foods & they were all great. However, none of that would stop me coming back to this little gem of a hotel, situated right on the beach in Agia Marina

Nice comfortable chairs are around the pool, but only 4 of them, and you cannot move them even a little bit to get a shade. They do not open any umbrellas on the deck with the statement that it is a wind

You can walk down to the beach from the hotel and the minute you walk into the room the sliders show you your own pool shared by the sweet next door and underneath that the main Infinity pool and lounges if you so choose to go down there

The pools are not heated very much because it is hot outside. This was September and we had the perfect weather!The restaurant is right next to the pool. You can eat indoors or outdoors

This was an amazing experience! Our wedding party mostly stayed in Chania, but we really wanted a pool so we rented a car and stayed here

It is very neatly located at a hill very close to restaurants and bars. The sea and the beach are literally just a stone throw away. The food in the hotel restaurant is great

If you want a specialty drink they have them for a small extra charge just like Starbucks. The service is amazing from the cleaning crew to my barista

It had a private pool with a view over the infinity pool, which itself overlooked the sea — a truly beautiful and relaxing setting

Beautiful small hotel and lovely staff By the roadside we had a sea view which was lovely rooms at the back can hear the traffic Enough beds for guests not always enough space outside for breakfast though Pebbly beach so take beach shoes Location great to walk into the old town Can walk this in 15 mins Hundreds of shops bars restaurants so we visited every evening and got a taxi back for about 6...

Although we were not guests of the hotel, Panos welcomed us with such kindness and hospitality. By ordering drinks, we were allowed to use the wonderful sunbeds on the beach

The rooms were always clean and well maintained, and the overall atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming. The staff were exceptionally kind and helpful throughout our stay

I called the hotel, and they immediately found it and arranged a taxi delivery to the airport — truly excellent service. I’m very grateful and would definitely recommend this hotel to others

The most impressive part was their quick response when I realized — already on the way to the airport — that I had left my phone in the room

A very cozy and pleasant hotel. It’s located about a 20-minute walk from the Old Town, which makes it easy to explore the city on foot

All in all the hotel far exceeds the sufficiency, the structure is slightly far from the pedestrian centre, but there is a bus stop a few minutes walk away with which you can reach the small center where there are various shops and bars located here and there or with plenty of half an hour by bus with more traffic to reach the center of Heracleo, in terms of services and food the hotel falls within...

Positives Cleanliness, fresh towels every day, bedding changed regularly Staff very helpful and couldn't do enough for you Good location Beach pleasant , plenty sunbeds during the day Negatives Food left a lot to be desired, not a great variety and not very warm

I didn’t expect much from this vacation since I hadn’t been to the sea for a long time. It was supposed to be a proper rest after a tough year

Unfortunately, we don’t have any photos with the animators :( We didn’t spend much time on our phones during the holiday, which is probably a good thing! So at least we’re sharing some photos of this beautiful place — from stunning beach sunsets to the gorgeous pool with mountain views

Very nice location close to Heraklion. There is hop on, hop off bus for sight seeing just in front of hotel. Hotel has pool, small pool with slides, it is close to beach

The location was great, everything close by. Above all, I must thank the animators for their amazing work. They managed to get even people involved who usually wouldn’t participate. It’s clear they do their job well

With easy access to the sea via a few steps (or a jump off the rocks if you’re brave enough) the crystal-clear water awaits should you wish to cool off; great for snorkeling too! The breakfast buffet is delicious and varied daily, the snacks are superb and the cocktails five-star! What truly makes this place is the team

Wonderful new hotel, great location on the seafront.. Wonderful rooftop pool.. Wonderful staff, homely attitude, good and plentiful breakfast.. Very nice rooms. Special architectural design.

We stayed for 3 wonderful nights, it was a pleasure. Amazing views, great breakfast, rooms are big and well decorated. The pool and the jacuzzi was perfect, in breezy day we loved getting into the jacuzzi

The view is amazing, amazing, amazing!!! I spent most of the day on sunbeds on the cliff. The descent into the water was a bit challenging for me (my knees 🙃) but I didn't give up

Also the kayak and the paddle is free to use. The location is perfect- close to restaurants, to the beaches. The hotel is very lively and the hosts are super friendly and helpful

The roof-top pool is showered with sunshine from morning until night and the private rock area is equipped with plenty of loungers, so you never struggle to find the right spot

Only a short walk in to platanias and the beach and easy to get a bus in to chania. The staff were all lovely , friendly and helpful and we were able to get a late check out

Clean, pleasant hotel. Good food. It feels mainly aimed at families and this is reflected in the clientele. Easy ten minute walk into the centre of Platanias or to the beach from the quiet location.

Been here a week and what a lovely hotel from rooms to food to staff had the best time would highly recommend thanks you sunrise village hotel for making our holiday we will definitely be back

The rooms are good but basic and we benefited from a sea view (room 115). The pool area is clean and sunbeds are plentiful. The few issues i had was the food and the bar area

Fairly large, clean pool, with deep and shallow end and a separate kids area. Pool towels are available for a refundable deposit. No shortage of sunbeds, plenty stacked up to the side

Sunrise Village is situated in a quiet area of Platanias but is only a 5 minute walk to the shops and restaurants and just a few minutes more to the beach. The Hotel is a 3 star hotel so do not expect anything more

We were traveling at the very end of their season but the service was like it was their first, still so warm and friendly. Very few people yet full pools, beach chairs, and sumptuous breakfast buffet

A lovely hotel, recently refurbished, with two pools and right next to the beach. The latter is sandy/pebbly but with beach shoes is fine. The sea bed is round rocks and the water crystal clear so great snorkeling

A lovely, recently refurbished, hotel which feels more like a 4 star. Two nice pools with plenty of sun beds. Beach is sand and pebbles but fine with beach shoes and the sea is great for snorkeling

The town is quiet ( no tourist shops) but 3 mini markets, a selection of cafes and four good Tavernas. If you are looking for peace and quiet, along with sun and sea, it's superb

The town is quiet with no tourist shops but a good selection of cafes, Tavernas and mini markets. Wonderful for a quiet break in the sun

We wished we booked two nights

First impressions were that this is not the prettiest location it was extremely central you had so many shops restaurants, pharmacy banks everything you could need, we could see the sea and the hills which had their own charm

It had a small pool area which was clean but we never used it because everyday we were out at either the beach or to the small villages with their amazing charms

We had four beds two pushed together in the larger bedroom, two hairdryers, a full fridge including ice box, a good sized bathroom with small sized cubicle shower and always plenty of hot water whenever we needed, we had two televisions and always found something to watch for the amount off time we where in the room but I would probably recommend a firestick or similar if you are people who like to...

Breakfast was great as a Brit it’s not bacon everyday but we could always find something, all very fresh locally sourced good quality and lots of homemade food we would recommend there version of baked beans, homemade breads, carrot cake and much more as a teaholic I always take my own tea but found myself drinking their coffee every morning from the machine you won’t be disappointed absolutely great...

What makes this hotel special is the costumer service this is family run and they’re all so warm and helpful, like minded very hard working people who obviously love what they and it shows Owners Themis his wife Gordana and son Alexandra couldn't be any more welcoming and helpful

First impressions of the room were that it could do with updating and I almost felt like I had made a mistake booking this, they had given us a upgrade which meant we had 2 bedrooms with lots of storage for all our clothes etc

It is located a street back from the beach which adds to the intimacy of the place. If you like the quiet and chill out feeling when on holidays, then this is a hotel to consider on the top of your list

:-) If you think stylish Design-Hotel with all comforts and feeling welcome like family doesn´t go together, think again and try AneSea Hotel ! This place really has it all. great breakfast, food, wine, cocktails

We stayed 12 days in Anesea hotel and it was the best choice we could make! The service, the food and cocktails are really good. Everything is clean and the staff is really nice

A very nice hotel with all its amenities!!! Friendly staff and everything neat and clean!!! Nice pool as well as in front of the bar!!! Definitely worth it for your vacation!!!

Liebes AneSea Team, thank you for everything ! This is the nicest little Design-Hotel we ever stayed at. We would actually like to take AneSea Hotel with us on our travels

The location is very good between Malia en Stalis, you can walk to both towns. We will recommend Anesea to everyone!

Wishing all of you continued success and happiness! 😘🌟 With warm regards, Klaudia PS: Dziękuję też serdecznie pani Agnieszce – pozytywnej, ciepłej osobie, która zawsze wnosiła dobrą energię i uśmiech! 💛

The only thing I would slightly improve is the hair dryer in the bathroom – it heats up quickly and doesn’t work that well, but it’s just a small detail compared to how great everything else was

The food was delicious, with lots of variety and rich local flavors – special greetings to Chef Fotis for the incredible meals. Everyone working here makes the experience even more enjoyable

I am happy and grateful for Dimitris and Dimitra for making me an exception for the coctail without alcohol. The other personnel shift could not make the drink without one ingridient

The two bars offer a well stocked list of wines, beer, spirits and cocktails. There are two swimming pools, both with a small cordoned off area for young children

My stay at this hotel was truly amazing! The entire staff is incredibly kind, helpful, and always welcoming

The restaurant and beach pool-bar are just a 1-minute walk from the reception, making everything super convenient. What I loved most is how the hotel blends into the town

Almost all of beach covered in sunbeds so if you want to lay your towel on the sand your out of luck. Still loved it there (for many other reasons)& would go back, but no place is perfect

I chose Stalis Hotel for many reasons, and it did not disappoint! Located in Stalida, about 30 km east of Irakleio, it’s easy to reach from the airport—just hop on a public bus (direction Malia) and get off at station no

No need for expensive taxis! The hotel is spread across several buildings, with most rooms offering side views of the sea

The food at the restaurant is tasty and varied, but the people make it even better. They greet you with a smile the moment you walk in. Back at the beach pool-bar, @Arjan deserves special recognition

Guests even take as many photos with him as they do of the beautiful blue sea—if that doesn’t say something, I don’t know what does
