Hotels with sea view in Crete

Also in the bathroom there is no curtain, after showering the whole floor wet. From hotel to sea beach is a narrow lane where a mess

Great little place,hills and steps to contend with,so bear this in mind if booking,but they do have a golf buggy and are more than happy to assist you up and down driveway as long as you communicate with them,nice breeze around pool which is much needed with the heat,food was amazing,no complaints

Gregory the bartender was another notable member of staff, as well as the manager, who was always on hand to help. Overall the staff really make this place feel special. The views from this place were incredible

A great sunrise in the morning and beautiful views of the mountains across Mirabello Bay. The food tasted amazing, handmade and fresh. The chef at this hotel makes a wide range of delicious meals

They are a family of staff and work thier socks off ! I can’t mention them all by name but they made our holiday an absolute pleasure ! I can’t than thank them enough for caring about us which is so lost these days in hospitality, kindness wins !!!!!

The staff were friendly and courteous, especially Albert, who seemed to be doing a range of roles from helping with baggage on arrival to waiting on food ect, a really helpful member of the team

Drinks are mostly good quality but the beer is not very good. The food in the hotel was excellent, local cuisine and also foreign specialities from time to time. Hotel is clean and well maintained

I had the best time here! The hotel is beautiful, the rooms are super clean, and the food is so tasty. The pool is big and perfect for relaxing I spent so much time just chilling there

Absolutely amazing)) Our Favorite Place Ever! We’ve been coming to this hotel for the third year in a row, and every single time it completely exceeds our expectations! Everything here is just perfect – from the incredibly delicious food to the warm and professional service

Food was great, everyday few new options of cooked meals, including seafood, meat, vegetarian options and for us all was tasty. They even grilled meat and vegetables. Good selection considering that is not big hotel

But the best part was the people! The staff were amazing — so kind, fun, and friendly. By the end of my stay, it honestly felt like we all became friends

Bed is also really hard, but that was not a big problem for us. Really hard working and always smiling. Food was good! I only disliked omelet, it had weird consistency 🤣 but everything else was super good and tasty

The food buffet had a variety of items with the dinner items changing each evening for extra variety. Brilliant hotel and highly recommend the sea view room!

It's super clean, nothing is abandoned or neglected from the property. Also very friendly staff, they always want to help. Two guys from the reception, not sure their names, are exceptionally friendly

We had room 402 which was lovely and spacious for the two of us with a nice size balcony and bathroom. There is a safe at a cost of €4 a day and AC which was free

Brilliant hotel, stayed here 7 nights and no complaints whatsoever! Brilliant view, room was clean and staff were very friendly. Great location with lots of shops around within walking distance

We stayed in room 513 and the housemaid is a super sweet and warm and lovely lady, please send my greetings to her again and Kevin the young waiter in the restaurant by this message😄

Thank you for giving us such a big room with a balcony. We had a late flight home and the hotel still let us to use the pool and a shower room after we have checked out

The Adele Beach Hotel is ideally located with a 25 minutes bus (number 20) journey/ride away from the nearest historic town of Rethimno which literally has something to offer everyone but just remember to purchase bus tickets in advance from all local stores and shops at 2 euro per trip

Not forgetting Gina the beautiful hotel cat who always greeted us with a meow every morning. The food is delicious with plenty of variety. Being right on the beach is just wonderful. The pool is a lovely area too

What could be better? There's one pool —it's quite large, with very comfortable soft sun loungers, and next to the pool is a private beach with plenty of cozy loungers right by the sea

The restaurant offers a huge selection of delicious Mediterranean, Italian, French, German, Japanese, Chinese (and others) cuisines, including a plethora of seafood

after three years!! Check-in was swift and our side sea-facing room was spotlessly clean, exactly as we'd remembered

From the moment we arrived - staff were truly professional, smartly dressed, approachable, friendly, informative, accommodating, ready to assist and help to exceed all levels of customer service to ensure every single guests stay expectation were met

We stayed at this hotel for 6 days and had amazing service throughout! They allowed early and late checkout for us as we had difficult flight times, called us multiple taxis to get around the beautiful island and were just helpful start to finish

The breakfast was perfect, so much choice! The hotel is well located with a huge amount of restaurants and bars on the doorstep, and lovely places like Koutouloufari and Stalis just a short distance away

I have stayed at multiple JW and Ritz hotels and the service here is at that level if not better. The hotel itself is immaculate. Our room was always super clean with fresh towels and sheets

There are also rental car agencies near the hotel where you can rent a car for a day and go hike Timios Stavros (the tallest mountain on Crete and another Unesco heritage site)

We had the best time at Vasia Boulevard. The staff were amazingly helpful, nothing was too much trouble. The room was spotlessly clean and fresh bedding supplied everyday

Two minute walk to the bus stop where the local bus can take you up and down the coast for a couple of Euros. This is important because the local taxis are $$$$

We dropped by your resort (Ethereal White Resort, Heraklion) and was greeted by Chrisanthi at reception and who we explained our situation. She immediately gave us information on availability and cost

Also, thanks to George (Geórgios) who gave us a tour of the resort and for placing a request for a takeaway breakfast because we had an early flight on departure

We travelled from Canada in early October of this year to see your beautiful island and to experience firsthand the culture and hospitality of Crete, Greece

The only observation with the room was there was limited space to lay our suitcases for easy access but in reality, not a big issue

When we arrived in Heraklion, the hotel we had previously booked was terrible and therefore we had to find somewhere else to stay

We were so impressed and thankful for her service and professionalism

We were there at the end of the season and always found parking ok and loads of sun beds around the pool and on the beach. Beach is nice, shingle rather than sand. Entertainment in the evening very good

Local area is no doubt very busy in the high season, but many shops and restaurants had started to close while we were there

All the food at the hotel is very very good, we tried the room service, the bad snacks at the bar and we had dinner at the a la carte restaurant which was incredibly tasty and delicious

Perfect 10/10. Beautiful property and location. The resort was spotless and the staff were cery friendly and courteous! I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Room very comfortable, breakfast plentiful with lots of choice. Good base for travelling around the area

Excellent stay, affordable and clean. Room was comfortable and easy to access. The breakfast bar was a nice treat. Hotel felt geared to older crowd, we are late 30s and were youngest in the pool and breakfast by far

Beautiful hotel in the city center, walking distance to the old town which is filled with restaurants and shopping spots, across the street from an amazing coffee shop, kind staff, clean and felt safe! Around 10 parking spots in the underground lot first come first serve otherwise parking free on hotel street ! Breakfast had good variety of options! Would recommend !

Located centrally, this hotel is stunning. Parking can be a bit tricky if you are used to North American style car garages, but nothing we couldn’t deal with. Breakfast was incredible as well.

Clean, beautiful rooms in a great location, with a few drawbacks. Drawbacks: - Heating/cooling: The building only supports one or the other. We were here on hot days and the fan was blowing hot air only

Absolutely gorgeous hotel in a great location, air con was so great and the balconies very good for hanging out on! The two women at the front desk were exceptionally nice and helped us out with so much, I would like to say a special thank you! Breakfast was small but had everything fresh you could possibly want, all in all great hotel!

Great hotel, nice staff and very clean. Park next door, very noisy! Band played until 11:30pm.

The hotel has a parking area, but it’s quite small and often full, so we had to look for street parking instead, which wasn’t easy to find – and that was already in mid-September, so I can only imagine how hard it must be during high season

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

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

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

It operates 3 times weekly, and it is not only delicious but also a good opportunity to meet and mingle with one's fellow guests, as the seating is at a long wooden table, and with the chefs

Possibly the nicest hotel I have ever stayed in. The facilities and the grounds are exquisite and the staff are above and beyond. The restaurant serves some of the most delicious food I have ever eaten.

Room service was fast with very taste mediterannean dishes. We had also body treatments in the wellnes area that was so relaxed. Thank you to everyone for your hospitality and special mention to Maria

Misleading Marketing Negatives Marketing and website over sells. It has the feel of a large hotel, which after a bit of research was the case. It rebranded and remarketed in 2024

The understated elegance that fully takes at advantage of the natural views that come with this location is truly stunning. We truly appreciated the food and the service I this amazing spot

) and Elounda about a 40 minute walk - fine during the day, but probably not to be recommended in the dark as pavement missing in places. We wouldn't hesitate to stay at Phaea Blue again if we returned to the area

He always made a point to come talk to us and was very kind. I will also mention that my boyfriend was sick overnight and they offered to make him soup and checked in with him throughout the day which really meant a lot

I have so many wonderful things to say but I will start with the bartender Michael. He is extremely skilled at making drinks that are both delicious and aesthetically pleasing. He has a clear passion for what he does

First I would like to recognize the staff members that stood out and made our vacation enjoyable. Kalliope (front desk ), Michalis (bartender), Mr Theo (maitre) , Vaso (server) and the household staff

He always engaged in conversation and was happy to explain different drinks to me and I really enjoyed the rapport we had. Also Kalliopi the receptionist is extremely friendly and approachable

She was extremely helpful in coordinating transportation for us and I really enjoyed talking to her. Finally, Theodoris the maître d’ was very warm and hospitable

The hotel itself is beautiful and well kept, the room was spacious and the housekeepers did a very good job keeping our room clean throughout the week

This may be attributed to several factors, including its limited room capacity, direct beach access (though not a private beach, with a daily fee of 6 EUR for a couple), and its proximity to the higher-priced regions of Rethimnon and Chania

The hotel itself is commendable, particularly its restaurant, and the service throughout the premises was consistently prompt. A recommendation would be to update the guest room towels

We ended up spending two unexpected days making use of the day facilities… The reception team were extremely welcoming, friendly and helpful

During our recent stay in Crete, we experienced three distinct hotels, including two five-star establishments and one four-star, the Orpheas Resort

My room was very big, with two loungers in the room, and from the small balcony, you could even see the sea in the distance. It is not top modern, but very comfortable, very clean and I really liked it

We stayed here for 4 nights, and very much liked it. We had booked two rooms in the standard categorie (towards the road, which is quite noisy), and were upgraded to rooms with garden view, which was very nice

Super friendly and caring staff, excellent facilities, good food, attention to details and ideal for any age / stage in life (we were a family of 4 with little kids)

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an absolutely amazing holiday here! From the moment we arrived until the very last day, everything was perfect

Room was with seaview with large balcony. Service in the hotel was friendly and welcoming

The reception, restaurant, bar, and housekeeping staff were always so kind, helpful, and smiling – they truly made us feel welcome

The complex has several buildings with a few rooms each, so you don't feel crowded. The sea view rooms are right on the beach, those on the ground floor don't even need to use the door to get to

The extremely nice staff, Claudia and Eleni from the Beach bar, Maria from the reception and those from the kitchen, I apologize for not remembering the name of the lady (Stavra?) who was particularly attentive to my needs

Beachfront and near to supermarket/ touristy shops, nice walking along the sea road

Lovely, lovely hotel - clean, well designed, great facilities. Our room was spacious and well maintained with quiet and effective air con - which was brilliant. The food was fabulous and value for money (half board)

We enjoyed the themed evenings whilst still feeling that we could experience local food and drink. Staff were welcoming, friendly and attentive. Super service throughout our stay

The fact that it is adults only made this a quiet and peaceful retreat. We had great weather so we were able to take full advantage of the pool and outdoor spaces

Easy staying for eat and lay down near the pool, it’s more for old people in my opinion but there are big food portions and nice bar area with sea view.

We arrived late and they had a packed sandwich and fruit for us and offered a complimentary hot or alcoholic drink. The food was so tasty and plenty of options

The hotel, just steps from the sea, charmed us with its cozy vibe and exceptional service. From the very first minute, we felt welcomed and very comfortable

Everything about the hotel was exceptional. It was clean, stylish, roomy with excellent service for that booking price rate. Definitely we're recommending and aim next season trip to the Castro Beach Hotel

The swimming pool in October was cooler than the sea, yet well exposed, the sun overlooks the hotel terrace all day long

Bonus perks: - Compact gym on-site - Car rentals (available at the hotel or nearby) - Bike rentals - Direct bus to Chania every 30 minutes (runs until late evening) If you're heading to Crete, this hotel is a fantastic pick for your stay on this stunning Greek island 😎

Especially, I would like thank mr Lefteris (head chef), mr Christos (sous chef), Christine (receptionist) and Ioannis (barman) for their extremely warm customer service, helpfulness and professionalism provided during our stay

If you are looking for relaxation, rejuvenation, a clean and quiet environment and above all very, very kind people, this is the ideal place. They treated us like family, and we can't wait to go back next summer.

My friends and I stayed here for a week at the very end of the season and had the most fantastic time. The rooms were nice and clean, the staff were super friendly and great fun too

My wife and I enjoyed a lovely week here. Our room was more than adequate for us. Small balcony with a glimpse of Elounda and the sea. The staff are really nice people and can’t do enough for you

We had a jet 2 week holiday at this lovely hotel. We had a superior grove room, which was well equipped and spacious but lacking in a view. I think the main building has the better views, but much smaller rooms

We have just returned from a 5 night stay at this beautiful hotel we booked here as attending a family wedding nearby , staff couldn’t do enough for you. Couldn’t fault anything about this hotel

The breakfasts are served in the ground floor restaurant and overlooking the bay. Everyone was very welcoming, we feel that we had found a little gem of a hotel and will be back

The new sky deck bar and pool is a great addition, the views are incredible. We had B&B which suited us, as there are many restaurants within a 5 min walk

If you are looking for a typical and authentic cretan house, peaceful and beautiful place and a one-of-a-kind swimming pool, this is it! Apartments are really well-decorated and equipped with everything you need

The private terrace is a must. Last but not least, the room is cleaned on a daily basis with lots of care and attention to details. Thank you for such a wonderful stay !

No children's pool so more suited to adults and older children who can swim, but there is a playing corner in the garden for small children. Kitchen with microwave and cooker

The hosts are very lovely and kind. The pool and the apartment are very clean and nice. I definitely recommend this place.

We spent one week in this wonderful place. The hotel is even better in reality and owners are very discret and lovely

Great experience!!! We stayed at Metohi Georgila with my family for vacation! So clean and friendly house! Feel like home ! Our kids enjoyed it so much! Highly recommended! We will come back for sure next year !

From the moment we arrived at Georgioupolis Beach Hotel, we were in heaven. The rooftop restaurant is truly unforgettable, between the sea views, the golden sunset, and the incredible food, it felt like a dream

There are lots of facilities to enjoy, including a good-sized swimming pool, a gym, and extras like a pool table, bike hire, a hot tub, and a sauna—so there’s always something to do. The location is another big plus

It has a beautiful outside heated pool with super comfy sun loungers (which was perfect for us in April) , a beautiful spa, rooftop jacuzzi, gym area and rooftop bar. I 100 percent recommend this hotel

The service throughout the hotel was consistently friendly and welcoming, which made a big difference to our overall experience. We stayed in a poolside room, which was very convenient and comfortable

The hotel is right next to the beach and within easy walking distance of local restaurants and bars. It’s also only about a 7-minute drive to Lake Kournas, which is well worth a visit

You can tell how much pride everyone takes in creating such a special atmosphere. The pool area is stunning, the spa is absolutely beautiful, and every detail feels five-star

The staff - Anna (manager), Anastasia, Angelo, Angelika (not EVERYONE had a name starting with A!) Yanni & Tall + our housekeeper were the staff we had most to do with and who looked after us SO well

So helpful! Ana at the front desk and the manager, also Ana, were so nice. They were so helpful in giving us ideas for non-touristy adventures. They would sometimes include a theme night, i

We received a call to our room first thing in the morning from reception advising us that the phone & card had been found by the pool area by the cleaners. This was a huge relief to us & saved us alot of hassle & stress

I found the drinks disappointing tbh i couldn’t find anything i could enjoy, but i am particular in that department so maybe personal preference. The barmen were a pleasure & offered a great service within their means

My partner lost his phone & bank card on our arrival here & we come to the conclusion they may have been left in the taxi, as we arrived late there wasn’t much we could do so we spoke to reception and headed to bed

The food was fresh and the dining area was clean. Our room didn’t have the greatest view, but it was very quiet. We could never hear the people adjacent to or above us. I would definitely stay here again

On arrival we were shown to our room which was not the sea front suite that we had paid for!! On complaining we were told that it would be ready the next day which of course was totally unacceptable

Andreas the bar man is fantastic always welcoming in fairness all the staff are but he stood out from the rest. Loads of pools to chose from we had a swim up room and hardly used it because the sea is so calm

The sunrises are spectacular and we were lucky to see a few baby turtles finding their way to the sea early in the morning

Whilst there my mother in law slipped (yes they came on honeymoon only because we brought our wedding day forward a year 😂) the hotel was great with sorting doctors and getting her seen quickly staff were very attentive

We arrived early hours of the morning. It was our honeymoon and when we got to the room they had decorated the door with a bow champagne and a love heart cake which was lovely. Food was amazing always something to eat

He offered us an upgrade on our board which financially didn't really benefit us. We had to accept the situation as we had no choice. 45 and the move to it was smooth
