Hotels with pool in Kato Daratso

There was often a queue at the AI ​​bar, as there was only one person to serve the guests. You could also get food for breakfast and lunch at the pool bar. Very helpful staff in both the restaurant, bar and reception

There are several smaller and larger pools between the buildings, which are not heated

Lovely cakes, ice cream and fruit for dessert. Good rooms with efficient cleaning, the area itself was also cleaned several times a day. However, there were a few things that surprised us

Large resort hotel in Platanias village right next to the beach. The hotel is spread over a huge area, with many room types to choose from in several buildings

guests, although there were 3 other bars. The beach bar was not for AI guests either. You had to pay 15 Euros for a beach chair, which applies to everyone

Unfortunately, hotel guests "reserve" the sunbeds in the morning, so it often happened that although there was no one in the pools and around them, we still couldn't find a free sunbed

Great stay at the Minoa Palace. The hotel facilities are great and never felt over crowded, although the hotel was fully booked. The swimming pools and the beach are perfect. Spa is really nice, a bit expensive

The Spa was beautiful- I enjoyed their amazing cool pool and jacuzzi all to myself. What let this place down was the very poor quality of food we ordered with room service

The spa pool & jacuzzi waters are kept so cold, it's impossible to get in. And they should upgrade their gym, which is not compatible to a 5-star hotel (extremely old/bad equipment)

I am very satisfied with the service. Ctrip's customer service is also very professional. Thank you very much.

Good overall, well managed but has some are Good overall. We stayed in an imperial room on the beach side of the hotel. Very good facilities overall, but some of the rooms need to be updated and soundproofed

This is one of the best hotels I have stayed at. They have for sure the nicest staff ever. So accommodating. Great food the breakfast buffet is so so good. Definitely will come back and recommend highly.

Hotel clean and look after inside and outside ver well Big rooms with very comfortable beds Room cleaned every day even without asking Great food, different cusine every day Big rooms with very comfortable beds Hotel clean and look after inside and outside ver well Very friendly staff, from receptionists, bar staff, waiters and waitress, chefs, managers, room cleaners

We just returned from a week holiday and we had a wonderful time at this hotel. I would definitely recommend this hotel

We had a wonderful two weeks here, the staff were very nice and friendly. In the evening at the bar, the barMichalis and Jivka served us delicious drinks. I would recommend this experience to others. :)

it was great location, sea view room, well organised, friendly staff, clean accommodation, and family friendly environment. Special thanks to Rakesh who was very helpful, kind and professional

I am greatful for his help and I would recomend his services to anyone

The hotel had a very chill vibe, good entertainment but very child focused- but separate from bars so we just stayed at the bar and played uno it was lovely!! There was not many teenagers so hard for the kids to make friends- it’s not a friend making hotel

Everything you need is within walking distance: the Atlas supermarket, bus stop, and other conveniences are just across the street. The host was absolutely fantastic—kind, welcoming, and always ready to help

I was pleasantly surprised by the very reasonable prices, especially given the prime location and the quality of service. It’s one of those rare places that balances charm and convenience perfectly

Wonderful Stay by the Beach! 🏖️ I had a truly lovely experience at this property. The location is unbeatable—right by the beach in a quiet, peaceful, and exceptionally clean area

His hospitality and many tips made the stay feel warm and personal. The room itself was fresh, spotlessly clean, and incredibly comfortable

Peaceful location on a beautiful sandy beach, just off the busy main road. Agia Marina is a few miles west of Hania with frequent buses

Highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing beach getaway—and I’ll definitely be returning! 🌅

Our stay was wonderfully quiet and relaxing. The private swimming pool was amazing and the whole place felt peaceful. Both the room and shared spaces were very clean

This hotel mostly is for vacation at the pool. This hotel have 2 pools and close by acces to the beach. If you book this hotel be ready to pay extra for AC 12 € per night. Pay extra for beach sunbed 8€ per bed

The hotel area is really welcoming, clean and modern. Rooms have enough space and you don’t have to wonder where to put all your stuff when traveling with a friend or family

And about the staff… I could talk about the staff forever! Everyone are so nice, warm and always trying to make your day even better

Marika is right next to the beach which is amazing. What could be better than start your day with good breakfast and ocean view

Breakfast was delicious with plenty of options, from savory to sweet

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

Quiet room, comfortable bed, good location, great pool and fantastic service. All positives, no negatives.

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!

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

From the welcoming staff who go out of their way to ensure your comfort, to the great breakfast buffet, amazing facilities (pool, bar area, being on the beach) - no details are overlooked

Grate and welcoming staff, Giorgios and Kristina. Excellent breakfast. Pool was ok, beach is rocky and no music. Not a deal breaker. Other beaches offer good options and inexpensive

Sun beds on the green area is free and close to a nice pool and the pool bar. Sun beds are taken quite early so you will have to get up before 9 if you want sunbeds

The hotel is well designed: two-storey, white, vaguely Arab-style buildings with lots of grassy areas, flowerbeds and trees. The rooms are functional and well-equipped with good beds and little balconies

Strangely, beach towels or sunbeds at the beach are not included, even with all-inclusive. But there are plenty of sunbeds by the pool which is a few steps away from the sand

I read reviews and viewed photos, and I must admit that the hotel looks much better than in the photos, and we had a wonderful stay! We stayed eight nights and everything was great! The service, the delicious breakfast, the small but adequate gym, and above all, the location right on the beach, close to many attractions, yet in a very quiet area

We've stayed in many hotels with varying standards, but this one had a very family atmosphere, a Greek feel and very casual. Everything was great! Thank you team Geranitis for wonderful holiday!

Although it is close to the main coast road it doesn't seem too noisy and the beach zone (with a kids playground, fitness equipment and a volley ball pitch, etc

Breakfast served in the semi open air terrace of the Basil Honey restaurant with the sun shining & waves crashing on the beach shore 10 metres away, amazing setting. Relax in the infinity style pool overlooking the ocean

The hotel exceeded all expectations: it is located right by the sea, with a beautiful pool, an amazing view from the window, clean, and tastefully decorated

The kids really enjoy swimming pool, we enjoyed the delicious breakfast outdoor overlooking the bay and island

Very close by there is a small port where you can rent a boat or take a ride on a motorboat. In the town, you can rent a car or enjoy a train ride around the surroundings. The hotel also offers free bicycles

It looks just like the photos and has a great feel to it, the sound of the sea, the attentive staff, the lovely pool and restaurant

All the staff were super helpful and special thanks to Cosmin and his colleagues who looked after us everyday for the breakfast time and helped prepare some early breakfast to take away when we had planned a day out in the boat

LCD in each room which can be used with a Google Chromecast or Amazon firestick and there is WiFi. Pool was perfect for the kids along with toys. Will definitely recommend to others

The bed was v comfy and bonus to have a sea and sunset view from the balcony

Unfortunately at the pool there was a group of young boys taking up the place by playing on air mattresses and ball and making disturbance for the other guests, owner Dina went to the pool and told them to leave! We appreciate that she took the ownership when the mothers of the young men didn’t :) Hope to come back

The hotel, pool and grounds were kept scrupulously clean, we loved the family and hotel so much that we booked for next year before leaving for home

A nice place to stay. Nothing fancy, but clean and a nice pool. The staff was especially friendly and helpful. There were two good restaurants right across the street. About a three or four block walk to the beach.

Everything in this hotel is excellent. Run by a wonderful family who are so friendly and can’t do enough for you. Everything is spotless and well cared for. Rooms are well equipped with everything you need. Excellent

Hotel has a pool, we didn’t go in it as weather too cold but it looked nice. An excellent Greek restaurant around the corner (recommended by the hotel) and supermarkets close by

Swimming pool maintained very well and is scrupulously clean. The main thing is the staff! The staff are so friendly, wonderful and helpful

The location was excellent, near a couple of mini supermarkets and a ten minute ( I strolled slowly) walk to a clean sandy beach I don’t normally visit a place more than once but I would return here

Hotel location was great, if you have children, it's very close one of the best beaches for kids. Hotell stuff, they were always helpfull and smiling. We really enjoyed breakfasts.

Loved it here! From the moment we arrived we were warmly welcomed. The staff are EXCEPTIONAL! The apartment was very clean, very comfortable, lots of hot water

We stayed here for 1 night whilst visiting Chania. Just a few kms / short drive to the main area of Chania. TV, small balcony, air con and small kitchen

If you're looking for the perfect beach bar experience in Agia Marina, look no further! This beach bar has it all – from stunning beachside cabanas to the most refreshing drinks, and exceptional service that makes your visit unforgettable

The great staff is very service minded, and great rooms with an amazing atmosphere. The place is located just a few meters from the beach whereas the hotel have their own place with different options for beach beds

Every detail is taken care of, from the cleanliness of the facilities to the promptness of the service. It’s clear that the staff here take great pride in making sure their guests have the best possible experience

He expertly crafts a variety of delicious drinks that are perfect for enjoying under the sun. The beach cabanas are incredibly comfortable and offer a perfect spot to relax and soak in the beautiful surroundings

Cute aparthotel on the beach, simple furnished rooms but very comfortable and clean. Amazing staff and great prices for the drinks. I felt very welcomed and relaxed there, will definitely return!

Our visit was made especially delightful thanks to Yannis, who goes above and beyond to ensure every guest feels special. His friendly demeanor and attentive service truly stand out

I can see why they don’t have parasols as there would not be the room round the pool, but maybe look at other hotels to see what they have done. - melon and other fresh cut fruit at breakfast

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

Fantastic hotel in a beautiful area! We arrived late night and were greeted by a bottle of water & plate of food in our room which we were incredibly greatful for! The room a support studio was perfect for the 2 of us with everything we needed

A truly wonderful and first-class hotel in a great location. We stayed again for a week in the middle of summer and enjoyed every moment. The staff is very friendly and helpful and caring

The beach is a 7-min walk away, past a couple of small shops. The staff are a credit to this hotel, they will go out of their way to help and were ever so friendly and chatty

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

Me and my husband stayed for 10nights, I couldn't fault the place, we stayed on the first floor 1 bedroom apartment very clean and spacious, plenty of sunbeds around the pool, decent size pool, walking distance to restaurants and supermarkets, beaches just down the road

We stayed in a one-bedroom apartment for three nights and this place is just fabulous. The apartments are very spacious and quiet, on nice grounds with a pool in the middle

Swimming pool was also very clean. There is a limited parking space on the street and no where else to park since I’m the road ends at the property. We had to park by blocking other cars but informed the front desk

We visited in August as a family of 3 in the two bedroom apartment on the first floor. The apartment was spotless and had all the facilities that we required. The owners were extremely friendly and helpful

They also have a nice bar and light meals available with delicious chocolate shakes too. The family who runs the business are super friendly and very helpful

Loved my stay at Elea. A peaceful place to stay that is a short walk from the beach. Great for families with young children.

We really appreciated all the activities during the day and during the evening, the flowers and the trees were really beautiful and well maintained, all the resort was very clean

Regarding the food, there were a lot of options, including also traditional Greek food. We recommend Althea Village if you want a nice, quiet and fun holiday!

Great stay! We had a very nice room and the food was varied and delicious. The swimming pools really completed the holiday vibe! The service was excellent whenever we had questions (for example, arranging taxis)

We had a great holiday at Althea Village this summer. It was our first holiday with our daughter which was 7 months old and the hotel felt perfect for us

At the same time, there were always local dishes to taste and plenty of vegetarian options Staff & Service The staff were lovely and super helpful, whenever we needed something, they were there Extra Perks A big plus was that even after checkout, we could still use the common area and all the all-inclusive facilities while waiting for our transfer

Such a thoughtful gesture ✨ Overall We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely love to come back! The only small thing we’d suggest is adding some non-alcoholic beer or wine options as we don't drink alkohol and it's becoming more and more popular among young people :)

The ladies at the reception were especially lovely and went out of their way to assist with anything we needed. To top it all off, the hotel even gifted us a bottle of wine during our stay. Truly a fantastic experience!

You can tell that customer satisfaction is a true priority here. The hotel itself was clean, comfortable, and beautifully maintained, but it was really the people working there who made my stay special

The reception team was warm, helpful, and always had a smile on their faces. Whether I had questions about the area or needed help with bookings, they went above and beyond to assist me

I had a wonderful experience staying at this hotel, thanks to the outstanding service and incredibly friendly staff. From the moment I arrived, I felt genuinely welcomed

The service throughout my stay was top-notch. Every member of the team — from housekeeping to restaurant staff — was professional, kind, and attentive to detail

Their positive attitude and hospitality created a warm and relaxed atmosphere that made me feel at home. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a place with excellent service and a personal touch

Suprisingly amazing! I went here with low expectations but I was wowed. The room: 10/10 big, spacey, bathtub, air conditioner, kitchenette, terrace, comfy beds. Interior decoration really shines Cretan culture

In both visits, I enjoyed a wonderful week at this hotel and I highly recommend it. Built next to the sea and near the centre of Platanias, in an area with many restaurants, shops and interesting activities

The beach: 9/10 it’s a beachfront hotel 🏨 It’s a Sandy beach and the ocean is clean, no plastics. Also nice to not have to worry about rocks. Location: 9/10 restaurants and stores galore on the Main Street

Sometimes we have stayed at the hotel and even if we are staying somewhere else, we always make time to go eat here. The lovely staff, good food and great ocean views make it worth for a visit

The pool: 8/10 not the biggest pool in the region but it is sexy with its boutique style wooden floors on the side and vegetation wall

The new room has a very comfortable bed, but the bed in the older room might be a bit too narrow, but we slept well. It is next to the beach, which is a plus, and it is in the centre of the town

Sweet and friendly staff, backyard to the pool was lovely to chill on, rooftop was pretty and spacious, location by a lot of tavernas and pubs, only minus from the air condition that used to leak some nights, didn’t really bother us we just put something under so it wasn’t leaking on the floor

There is also a small pool for a splash bath, and a large terrace on top, to enjoy the sunset with a beer. Clean and tidy with warm welcoming stuff and owners

Pool is with icy water, not suitable for children due the temperature. Upstairs rooms have to use street pavement to get there, this is not cool

Small apartment hotel, located at the very center of Platanias. The hotel is located just a few minutes walk from the central square, the shops, the bars and the restaurants. The beach is 2 minutes away by foot

This was out first trip to Crete. And we are SO please with this hotel!! Nice clean rooms in a very authentic style. The owner, the receptionist and the cleaning lady made us feel right at home

Although not a modern hotel, its freshly renovated bathrooms and windows combine with traditionall wooden furniture to create a cosy warm, village-like atmosphere

Felt like a picnic hanging around the pool! Restaurant just down the street is also worth visiting. Would love to return some day

The apartments are spacious, modern, clean and tidy. The beds are comfortable and the air conditioning good. The pool area has enough sunbeds for all the guests and the two pools are good for swimmers of all ages

Amazing hotel in a lovely area. Every single member of staff was so lovely and kind and made our stay unforgettable. My little 1 year old daughter always got a smile from everyone that worked there whenever we passed by

We felt so welcome! Breakfast was very nice and plenty to choose from, fresh vegetables and fruits to. Beds were comfy, everything was clean and sun lounge area so cosy with the plants and grass

There are also a couple of indoor areas for everyone to spend time in with a small library, some board games and a pool table. The slightly dated gym was also a great bonus

A fantastically built hotel with all the amenities and proximity to everything and a nice relaxed atmosphere. Nice hustle and bustle without being loud - familiar and respectful

" "Really?!" she exclaimed, her smile radiant. "I actually think so, too," I added. And then, on the way home and long after, every time I thought back on our vacation, I tried to understand why we answered that way

We've enjoyed a couple of weeks staying in this hotel with wonderful staff. There was no loud music from the bar in the evenings unlike other nearby hotels

But I think the sport massage in finland suits me better than their herbal relaxing massage. Plus point that there's a fulfilling breakfast. Everything in Crete tastes way better

Location is perfect - 4 beaches nearby, Lidl, bus station, nice park for morning jogging. Free gym is another big plus for fit people

made us feel so welcome The bar is only one in kato doratso that's shows football as well Pool is mainly. and spotless clean Only real down side it's on a quite busy road Would definitely stay again

This hotel is all about location 3 lovely beaches within a very short walk €12 taxi from chania Went to 10 local restaurants never had a bad meal all excellent There's a land train stop 200 metres away so if you need to go watermark or lake kourios it's very easy

We spent 7 days at Santa Helena beach in 2024, 13/7–20/7. The hotel is very clean, architecture is nice and we had a 2 room ground floor apartment with a terrace to the pool area and evening sun

Good and free sun beds both at the pool at the beach (if you buy from the bar which is easy) The restaurant has a good variation of easier snacks, excellent pizza and burritos and good dinner dishes

Very high quality food in the buffet. Nice pools with plenty of free beds. Bus to chania stops right outside dor 2. Not safe to cross the road for kids! But that's not the hotels fault

Staying at the resort was excellent, and the service was on point. The food was great, but staying by the pool and getting served drinks was a whole experience

Decent sized pools, could be abit bigger though. The actual location is not the best, its just okay. Kinda on the outskirts from the city centre. The actual beach is also not really a beach

Definitely room for improvement, the beach in particular and increase the pool sizes or something. Kind regards, Andreas/Andrew
