Secret Garden Hotel in Maleme

Good points Nice clean hotel ,friendly staff ,especially sasha the barman. As stated before on reviews no spirits until after 6.30 pm .Lovely pool and sun loungers Negative points. Not in a really good area as nothing much along the seafront. Beach not fab stones and shingle with a tiny bit of sand .Jet2 needs to update description. Food not really good , poor choice and lukewarm. Desserts same every mealtime just different colours and often still partially frozen. Even the plates were cold. Other guests said food was a lot better than the previous years. Not sure why you would repeat visit if food not good. Lovely restaurant along the beach front think it was called Mythos the one with blue table cloths at the side of pizza oven. Trips land train ok to blue lagoon but not worth the money. Local buses excellent service. Chania well worth a visit. Not much at kolymbari but a nice beach with sand . Platanias lots of gift shops to browse.

Food was ok, ice cream and drinks were local, not so good. The worst thing was that my engagement and wedding rings stolen from room. Of course my own fault that I did not put it to safety box, but not very reliable staff. The chief of hotel says that there is no thiefs and I have myself lose it somewhere.
