Where to stay in Kalyves

The hotel is perfectly pleaaant but lacks the nuanced touches of a genuine 5 star. Some ameneties such as the playground and playarea are tired but the food in the restaurants is hearty and satisfying. Our room with a pool was lovely for a family of three and modern.

Amazing, very family friendly resort, sparkling clean, very friendly staff, amazing food, mini club, animation team-all was great. Rooms of a great size, special thanks to our cleaner. We’ve stayed with own pool and it was of a great size, very private, we could relax by the pool while our baby slept inside.

A great hotel for families A great hotel, with lots of activities and entertainment for kids both big and small. The food options are great, and as a vegan I had a number of options every meal which is different to usual holiday locations. The new and old buildings mean there's plenty of space for everyone and you can always find a sunbed

Great family resort. My 5 year old loved the kids club and activities. Pools were lovely temperature (though the water slides one was cold) All inclusive wasn’t the best I’ve had. Breakfast and lunch were fine but by dinner we preferred to leave the hotel. If you go right along the beach there was an excellent place for dinner and cocktails. Overall a good hotel. We had a great time and my 5 year had...

Beautiful room (superior maisonette) with plenty of room for a family of 4. Great pools, particularly in the newer blocks for swimming (lane pool), food was good but not excellent. Entertainment was good, particularly the music quiz, acrobats and Greek night. Drinks service was good too and much better if you do the upgrade package which we did part way through our holiday. Not much going on round...

Is in a relaxing area with beachfront views and includes 3 restaurants and 2 heated pools nice and r laxing hotel we will come again for sure!

Really pleasant stay. Can't fault anything really location amazing children's disco daily. Nice rooms clean and comfortable bed. We were all inclusive but midway we upgraded to all inclusive plus as the drinks weren't great but that is pretty typical for all inclusive so no issues there. Also thanks to the staff as asked to organise some flowers etc for my wife for our anniversary and really lovely...

We had an absolutely wonderful experience. The location couldn’t be better — just a short walk to the beach. The rooms were spacious and beautifully decorated, with a great view of the sea from the balcony. The staff made sure everything was perfect, from the friendly check-in to helpful local recommendations. The buffet had a great variety of tasteful choices. It’s clear that the management really...

The hotel is in a great place and is very clean. Food is more than acceptable and staff are efficient. We had a sea view and it does not get any sun due to the north facing. However in the summer that might be a blessing. The bathroom was just about adequate with a small shower and they had put in a small extra bed as we needed separate beds. If you mistime the need for coffee in the morning then...

Pretty hotel in ,Kalyves. Great party atmosphere in evenings for shows They do wine tasting. Easy to book tours with Momo Family friendly . It was pleasure to stay there. Rooms clean and comfortable. Air conditioning. Small pools but beach over small bridge is fantastic and water clear. Kostos is an excellent host on the bar . With other staff when he is not there. Loved the cocktails. Ouzo...

I came here for one day on a charged for day pass costing 32 euros. I caught the bus from Chania. What a TREAT! I was allowed to use the indoor and outdoor pools beteen 10 am until 6 pm. I arrived around 12 noon, just in time for lunch "EAT AND DRINK AS MUCH AS YOU LIKE" FROM AN EXTENSIVE AND EXOTIC BUFFET. I chose the outdoor dining area overlooking a river with ducks that runs into the sea I am...

The hotel location was amazing next to the beach and close to the airport . My room was clean, and the Wi-Fi was exceptionally fast for any tasks I needed to do with sea view.The food was so warm and tasty also the drinks from the bars very good.The staff is so friendly specially kostas lifeguard!!We will come back 100%

It is a very small apartment but very good location about 40 m from the sea. The toilet shower space is good, and renovated and nowadays. The livingroom is small, the kitchenette outdated. Nevertheless: price good. A year laterww visited again. Langer room, beter kitchenette so we had a good second stay

Comfortable apartment with a great sea view. The beach is just steps away, which was a big plus. Daily cleaning, good shower and air conditioning made the stay very convenient. The host was super friendly and quick to respond whenever we had questions about transportation or anything else. The only thing missing was a working microwave or stove for heating up food. Other than that, everything matched...

Pantelis excellent host, very helpful and friendly. Room very clean and modern. Apartments are in the perfect spot, on the beach, close to bars, restaurants and shops. Perfect place to stay.

After a flight cancelled by Transavia at the last minute, we were able to find 3 last-minute rooms (with children) at the Akti Galinis. Johanna, the owner, was incredibly kind, professional and straightforward. Many thanks again to her. Simple rooms in a very relaxing setting, 30 seconds' walk from the beach where you can find a few tavernas and deckchairs for a quiet rest. Thank you again for your...

I am travelling around Greece for a couple years now and all I have to say is that I have never experienced better hospitality than the owners of the apartments. Apartment was clean and the view was amazing , it's next to every hotspot of the area and you really not gonna need to use the car . I recommend it no doubt.

A simple, cozy place, but in a great location and very quiet. Very close to the beach; it is ideal as a base for visiting the western part of Crete and returning to a quiet place every evening. Recommended.
