4 star hotels in Panormos

Very large hotel and grounds. All very clean and well run. Hotel is on a peninsula by itself so you are a bus ride away from a town with bars and tavernas. There are plenty of pools in the hotel grounds and you have access to the beach and safe swimming areas. Little disappointed that indoor pool was closed on our visit for COVID related reasons, thought those days had passed. Large grounds mean that...

What an amazing stay for 7days. All inclusive. Whole resort is great. Stayed in garden view room. Staff very helpful and friendly. Choice of food was fantastic catering for all tastes. Download the Hotel app to get map and information where pools, bars etc. Location is out of the way. If you want to visit local towns etc prepare to travel for long periods time. Hotel offers all you need to have a relaxing...

we had our Honeymoon in this hotel and happened to have my wife's birthday. The hotel manager sent us a birthday cake and bubble wine as gifts. That's touching! Like this hotel, nice location, nice food, nice staff, extraordinary experience. Recommended with 6 stars!

Gorgeous setting and grounds, staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The food is varied and all good quality, something for everyone. Unfortunately the shower in the room is very disappointing.. as a cheap plastic shower curtain and a tiny shower basin.. we have found completely lacking. We are not large people, but we struggle to get a reasonable shower. The room is a wet room but I am not confident...

That‘s the best hotel I know!! everything was perfect, I loved the food. There was a big buffet, so there was something for everybody. And it was so yummy. The location was so wonderful, the hotel was near the beach. The people which work in the hotel are sooo nice. I can’t say something negative about anything. Because everything is so beautiful and perfect!! 🤩 Thank u very much! That’s definitely...

Great location beside the sea. Clean Hotel overall. Good food but the beds in our room could need an extra madress or two. Pool closes 18. Friendly staff.

Wonderful place very friendly staff excellent food and services. Come back again.

Fabulous property! Great room, huge buffet, lots of areas to relax, great beach, helpful staff.

Versatile resort. Very varied buffet and drinks.

We just had our second family holiday at Marine Palace and were once again very happy with everything. The location, the food and service is great!

We have had a great time at this hotel. Plenty of great dining options, multiple swimming pools, sea access was great. Perhaps the biggest highlight was the staff, they were lovely and super helpful any time we needed anything. The only slight negative we found was the lack of lactose-free yoghurt, which was surprising given the multitude of options otherwise. It would have been nice to be able to...

Lovely hotel for a family holiday. Between the pools, water park and beach our water babies were in heaven; with the inclusively priced cocktails we were too! Delicious and great range of food in the buffet. Do book on arrival if want full choice of alternative dining options. Appreciated being able to get snacks for the kids during the day. Highly rate the beach BBQ. Would have enjoyed some music...

everythings was perfect. One of the best hotels i have been. In a small village with all you need. Staff super polite and always available.

Very friendly staff. Breakfast of local cousine. Quite enjoyable.

Excellent !! Location, treatment and quality. I recommend it one hundred percent. Beautiful accommodation and facilities to customers. Lovely Irina !!! If I can go back to Crete I will repeat.

Better than fabulous must stay location

Winter weather seeking tranquility and relaxation the perfect place beautiful location beautiful atmosphere and friendly service. Thank you.

I would definitely suggest a stay here to all the travellers out there. Everything was excellent, very friendly stuff , very clean ... Fresh juice at breakfast and handmade cretan pies! Something to remember.

We went there 14th to 21st Oct 2025 , lovely hotel and staff but built on a hill which is ok if the lifts work as it’s like a maze with flights of steps to everywhere and some rooms don’t have lifts to them so you have to carry your very heavy cases to get there , lift out of action on arrival with promise of it’s going to be fixed , never fixed , lovely rooms and views , very clean but the breakfast...

We stayed at Bali Diamond Hotel for four nights with two other groups of friends, drawn in by its adults-only policy. The location was lovely—right on the beachfront—but the beach had a large inflatable assault course for kids, which didn’t match the adult-only vibe. Luckily, a quieter and nicer beach was just a short drive away. The room was okay, but we had repeated issues with the electricity tripping...

Room 114 has a balcony big enough to accommodate about 10 loungers and a view that you won't tire of in a hurry, day or night, unfortunately it's 52 steps up from reception/bar. Because of the geography, the hotel is built on a slope and therefore consists of a series of levels connected by a series of confusing stairs and lifts. Also confusing is the absence of a pool bar (lovely pool). Psarapoula...

This Is Such A Gem Of A Hotel . You Really Need To Go There . Its Positioning Right on the beach. Again A Fantastic Stay At This Wonderful Hotel. Thank You To All The Staff Who Made It Such A Good Holiday, Your Stars Special Thanks From Keith As Well, We Will Be Back Next Year

Bali Diamond is a fabulous hotel right on the beach. We had a sea view room with a stunning view, this did mean a lot of stairs to get there but it was worth it! There are lifts if you need them though. All staff were friendly and the hotel was spotless. Easy walking distance to either the port or the opposite direction to another beach. All local restaurants we tried were excellent with again lovely...

Had an excellent stay at the Bali Diamond. Nice welcome on arrival and helped with cases to our room. Nicos explained every part of the room and made sure we were settled in properly. The bar area was clean and well stocked with great food and beers. The room was kept clean and well maintained by the polite and helpful staff. All in all, our stay was brilliant and we had a great time. Thank...

Firstly, as other reviews state, yes it is a mainly French hotel but they animation team were very inclusive and the guests were all friendly and how hard is it for us English to say bonjour with a smile? The hotel is superb, we didn't pay tourist tax and the safe in the room was included. The WiFi is fantastic and all of the staff were great and help is always available. The food is what you would...

The actual hotel, accommodation, food all of a good standard, the Hotel staff very friendly and helpful. The main problem was that the Animation team were all French and everything was spoken in French ( with the odd English word thrown in) all the games were conducted in French, but as the hotel was over 90% French they really enjoyed it, but we felt excluded. Before and after the sessions, the animation...

Hotel Resol has a family atmosphere, it is not a luxury hotel, but everywhere is clean and the staff is friendly. The rooms are modern, the advantage is that some have a private jacuzzi or pool. The location of the hotel is especially great, it is close to the beach and the center. As for the food, which is often criticized, the food was always fresh, tasty, everyone could choose from various side...

Well we read a few mixed reviews so was a little unsure of what we were going to get. I went with my mum and my young son. During our stay it was mostly French holidaymakers, this just ment the staff spoke mostly French and very little English. But everyone was polite and friendly. The entertainment wow what to say it was done by a small team but the energy put into it was amazing. I would just love...

We had a fantastic 6 night stay at the Resol Hotel. We stayed the room with private pool. Room was nice and clean. The hotel location is superb...Bali village with sea and hill views, and within easy reach of cafes, restaurants, shops, beach when walking the main street in front of the hotel. In beautiful sandy Livadi beach sun loungers & parasols provided free by hotel. (6 min walk) All inclusive...

We are just coming back from vacation. I really enjoyed everything. Don’t believe bad reviews. The hotel is in a fabulously beautiful and convenient location, where everything is close, but we enjoyed the peace, natural beauty and hospitality. All rooms face the sea with wonderful views. Rooms are spacious, bright, after renovation, with spacious balconies. We lived in a building in Mykonos, a bit...

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful and comfortable family-run hotel. The staff were always polite, friendly, and eager to assist every guest with a genuine smile. Our room 477 was located in the main building on the first floor, offering a stunning sea view. The restaurant provided an impressive variety of dishes — from fresh seafood and meats to salads, fruits, and delicious desserts. Every...

Stayed for a week with my family at Atali in Bali. Bali is a seaside village situated in the heat of Crete. The hotel met all the expectations for a pleasant stay. The food was delicious, everything was clean, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Overall, we had a positive experience.

Third time at the hotel, everything was beyond my expectations! I loved ❤️ 🍕!!!! My room had a sea and mountain view. Staff were wonderful. Special thanks to the ladies at the reception.

Our experience here was wonderful. The food is amazing, we ate a lot every day, desserts were great too. There is an open bar + ice cream bar as well. The weather was so nice, even in October, very sunny and warm. We spent a lot of time at the beach / in the pool. Rooms were clean, I would highly recommend this resort to anyone!

This is the second time I have been here and both times we loved it. The people here are extremely kind, friendly and helpful, the rooms are great and well situated and the food is amazing a d very varied. I highly recommeend even with kids, they have animators and activities, pool, anything you might want or need. And the massage was the best I have ever had.

We spent a week at Atali Grand Resort in Bali at the end of October. The staff was great, the food delicious and the weather amazing 😋😍

An absolutely amazing hotel experience! Everything was perfect from start to finish. The food was outstanding, with a great variety and excellent quality at every meal. The swimming pool was beautiful, clean, and very relaxing, and the view was simply breathtaking. The hotel is located in a great area, close to everything you need while still feeling peaceful and comfortable. I would definitely recommend...

Nice place to have good relax, comfortable rooms, services. Enjoy the Greek meals. Taste the life.

Best place in Crete It is my first day here and i feel so well treated. Aleks waited for us and helped with everything. Love this place!

This hotel is good enough for the money you spend. Its location is perfect for those who need a motive for walking. You’ll have a chance to have a 5 minute walk to the beach every day. The hotel is situated on the hill, so it is built in different levels. You’ll need to walk up and down to get to the rooms, the pool, the restaurant and the reception. The rooms are usual, most of them with sea view...

Nice clean rooms (basic), lovely location overlooking the beach. Simple breakfast with limited items, but no toast making facilities! Good lunch and dinner, but no butter with the bread. Good vegetarian option. AC in rooms but is optional and charge 5 euros per day. No snacks provided in the morning. Cakes provided at tea time in the afternoon. It is adequate for the price you pay. Generally very relaxing...

If you don't like al that luxury, and just want to experience the real greek feeling, go here, i have never felt so good and relax on a holiday.

Hotel is located at the beach, no need to go far. Rooms are clean and cosy. Swimming pool right in front of your balcony, hotel staff is doing the best all the time to meet your requirements, very pleasant people. Meal is excellent, great choice every day, various menu, the chef is so hard working and dedicated to his job. The beach is rather small, but lots of bars and restaurants makes it less unbearable

Excellent hotel in Bali, Crete. Its on the best beach in Bali, Crete. The breakfast was excellent with a lot of choice, great a la carte food , frendlly and helpful staff. Hotel , pool and rooms are spacious and beautifully designed. Right on the best beach in Bali .

I had an absolutely amazing stay at this hotel. The atmosphere was calm, welcoming, and trustworthy, making us feel comfortable from the very first moment. The staff were simply amazing—they took such good care of us throughout our stay. The service was top-notch, always kind and attentive, and the food was incredible. The breakfast especially was outstanding—fresh, delicious, and full of variety...

Really amazing hotel, 2 swimming pools and really good place right next to the sea. There is not so much to explore around that area. Feel free to choose this as the resting place to have drinks, good food and chill by the sea.

The hotel is very nice, comfortable with modern facilities, excellent food. However, for a 4 star hotel in this price range, we are a bit disappointed with the sea access/beach which is for additional fee and always full (or closed) already early morning, which means if you are lucky enough to catch a spot, you spend a day in an overcrowded beach with lots of kids making noise. Kinda expected a bit...

WOW! What an amazing vacation we had at Hotel Nostos (June 24 – July 1) in Bali, Crete! Everything was absolutely PERFECT! 🏖️ From the very first moment, Mrs. Eleni welcomed us with a genuine smile and incredible energy – truly a 5-star host! She made us feel special every single day ❤️ Breakfast was delicious! Great variety, fresh ingredients, and the breakfast team was always cheerful, helpful...

The food and service at this Niriides are outstanding! Voula and Thanos are incredibly kind and welcoming, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Every dish is delicious and handcrafted with care. I highly recommend trying their freddo espresso by the beach – it's a must-try experience! Their Chocolate Mousse and all their dishes as well. Overall, a fantastic place to enjoy great food and exceptional...

Would recommend this place to anyone!!!! Me and my boyfriend came here for dinner one night and we wished we came sooner. The food is amazing as well as the staff. Specifically the owner, she made us both feel very welcome. Lovey family run business that took the extra step to make our holiday special. We visited again on our last day to say our final goodbyes as we loved it here so much. The food...

Super friendly staff. Yannis the owner and his wife Voula as well her mother Vaggelio. The Chef Stefano and Sofia from Housekeeping and the waitress Adelina. The Food was fantastic. The rooms very clean. Very quiet Hotel. Very Beat at the Beach.

Very friendly staff, great service in the restaurant with special thanks to the chef. The food was superb and delicious!! Nice location and very clean. Literally next to the sea with sun beds and umbrellas and with great sunset view. Very friendly owners!

I highly recommend staying at this hotel. The location is marvelous (directly at the beach). The food was amazing and the staff was really helpful. And what’s also important the hotel was really clean.

We are currently staying in a hotel and just fancied a change we found this restaurant and the flighty different variety of food was amazing I would certainly recommend this food as all the meats were cooked to perfection. I genuinely feel this is such higher quality and definitely be returning before we leave. The owner was so lovely.

Visited for two weeks in August. The hotel is up in the mountains above Bali which makes for a peaceful environment but think a car to get around was needed unless you want to do a lot of walking/use the minibus service to get to and from Bali. The manager stelios speaks excellent English and is very welcoming and helpful and was always going out of his way to help us when we asked. His son worked...

Just got back from a short stay here . Its a really nice well designed small hotel/apartments. The staff are all very friendly and hardworking. The all- inclusive buffet has something to suit all customers . The apartments are spacious with 2 bedrooms, the lower ones also have a swim up pool. The main pool is a nice size surrounded by mountain and sea views. Its far enough away from the main strip...

Absolutely amazing place to stay over. Helpful, caring staff. Nice clean outdoor swimming pool surrounded by beds with umbrellas. Every meal is a Buffet consisting delicious treats. Rooms are big enough, clean. There is a fridge, cooking hob, kettle, iron, microwave, hairdryer in them. Kitchen also contained sets of glasses, plates and so on. Our upper floor room had two balconies. Ground floor rooms...

Overall a very good experience. Stelios is always helpful and looking after the guests. Is a relaxed atmosphere compared to bigger hotels

This was our first family vacation in Crete and we were surprised how friendly and helpful people in Greece are, especially mr. Stelios! This place is family-baby friendly, it’s further from the beach but it’s ok to walk there. We loved the swimming pool, Mountain View and that the hotel is not crowded. In addition, we could check out later which is great when you have small kids and you’re leaving...

First of all I would like to thank Stelios, the hotel manager, very much. On the first day of our holiday, I realised that I had forgotten an important medicine at home. After I told Stelios about this, he immediately took me to the next pharmacy and the pharmcist there was fortunately able to give me the medicine. So our holiday was saved. Stelios is a super employee who is always ready with advice...

Great staff. Super pool and great beach area. Food was amazing. Music could be a bit lounder.

Not a 5 star! The hot Food was Cold, And not much selection. Staff seemed grumpy except a few waiting staff. Lacked communication. Tatty sunbeds. The only thing good about this hotel was the beach and clean rooms.

This an amazing place to which i hope to return many times.The warm friendly service,the beautiful hotel with all the modern conveniences provided such a wonderful place to relax and soak in some delightful Greek culture. I looked forward to my delicious coffe and breakfast every morning and for a superb dinner in the evening.This is a place where I could sit for hours with the soft sumptuous light...

I truly recomand this hotel! The food is really tasty, especially the sweets. The rooms have AC and the towels are changed daily. The pool is near to the beach, also it includes a bar. You can swim in the sea and in the pool whenever you want, you don’t have to choose one of them. Also, we really enjoyed playing table tennis (to balance the new kilos due to the buffet).

The food was almost the same every day. Unfortunately it was tasteless. In fact, we only enjoyed something a few times throughout the 10 nights. Apart from that the room was clean and really nice. The hotel is located right by the sea and it is a good location as it is not far from popular tourist attractions. The woman who cleaned the rooms every morning, was always smiling and she was nice to us...

We had a family vacation in Greece on the island of Crete, choosing the White olive elite rethymno 5* hotel. It was a great choice because it fully met our expectations. The hotel has exceptional service, the waiters work great, the food was beyond praise, the pool is clean, the sea is clean, the entry into the water is smooth, the water is blue, the sandy beach is clean. You can only dream of this...

Absolutely superb hotel with staff who really care. The hotel is spotless, and we stayed in room 742, a beach front Bungalow. Brilliantly designed with breathtaking view. The room was cleaned every day. The whole resort is spotless and the staff are attentive but not overbearing. Special mention to Victor in the older kids club who was full of enthusiasm and really cared about his job. He was fantastic...

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Iberostar Creta Marine. From start to finish, everything was fantastic — the atmosphere, the food, the staff, and the service. A very special mention to Ellie from Guest Relations, who was truly amazing. She went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience possible. Her kindness, warmth, and genuine care made us feel completely at home. Also, a...

Great hotel and gardens. Good location and food was really delicious. For a week, there were plenty of options and enjoyed mixing the buffet for a couple of evening meals at the onsite restaurants. Did have an issue with room set up (Garden view bungalow) for 2 adults and child which was completely impractical as the sofa chair which converted into a single bed didn’t allow the balcony door to open...

love the rooms, they are so pretty.. the stuff ist very kind they are very helpful und polite, i love the animateure programm, the service is also very well and the atmosphere is great in here

I really liked the stay and i thought the animateurs are wonderful. So much that i even thought about coming here to be one. Every staff member is really nice and if youre friendly you can definetly benifit from it:)

This was our second visit to the Iberostar Selection Creta Marine and although late arriving due to a flight delay, we were welcomed with a glass of champagne and a rose for my wife. The reception/lobby area is very spacious and immaculate, check in was pretty quick and we went to our room, the same room as last year, which was on the second floor in the main building with a sea view. The air conditioned...

If they say ‘Home is where the heart is’ then The Royal Blue has certainly become our second home as it steals a small piece of our hearts every time we leave . This was our 4th visit in two years and people ask us why we keep returning to the same place . I guess these are the reasons .. 1) Location : The Royal Blue is just an oasis of calm , tucked away in an unspoilt area of Crete. There are no...

ALERT! ⚠️ There is a serious risk that you will NOT want to go back home after staying at The Royal Blue Resort & Spa! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel truly welcome and at home. Everyone was incredibly kind and helpful, and when our child got sick during the stay, they went above and beyond to support us and accommodate our needs — something we will never forget. The buffet was...

Me and my best friend had another awesome stay at the Royal Blue Resort & Spa, aka our second home. Normally we bring a few other veterans, but they were busy this time. So this stay, although each day was a celebration of life, it was more mentally relaxing and enjoyable. Life is short, so we decided to put our hard earned money together and stay in the Azure Residence and see how the other half...

It‘s a lovely Hotel. Our first room was close to the air condition and quite loud. But we talked to reception and for a new room. We Head a lovely view and they Tool care for us. We enjoyed our Holiday!

A meeting of the clan. Two of our adult children flew in from London and two from Australia. Add in a few partners and we ended up in 4 different rooms across eight people. Whilst we tried our best to confuse the wonderful concierge team with a few moving parts they were super helpful and patient. Thanks to Maria and her colleagues . The facilities and room were fantastic . The sports facilities,...

We just came back from The Royal Blue and I would like to say we really enjoyed our stay. It is a very beautiful hotel. The rooms are very spacious, with balcony. The staff is extremly friendly, hemofilia, always smiling snd willing to help. We also liked the beach, is perfect for children. 5 minutes distance by car to the closest village, where you can find restaurants and shops.

It’s a pretty decent resort, but the overall feel is more tailored towards families with kids and less for romantic couples. Would recommend for families but couples seeking for a romantic time might want to look elsewhere.

Best buffet in the world!!! Truly we couldn’t stop eating haha . Our room was very nice. Lovely pools . Really kids and family friendly. The water park is amazing also for adults

Good afternoon, I'd like to share my impressions from the very beginning! So, here it is: arrival at a wonderful hotel, praised by 1,000 reviews. Of course, they greet you with a smile and tell you that as a compliment, they've upgraded your room to two categories higher and are providing you with a villa with its own parking space. Then, behind the screen, it turns out that this particular villa is...

Property was visually beautiful. Lots of nice pools and great views. Breakfast buffet was good. Service was lacking. We were switched into a different room “equivalent” than what was booked. Need to have a car rented or you will be stuck in the property. Value for the money was not there.

My stay at The Royal Senses Hotel in Crete was truly exceptional. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed by the warm and friendly staff who made me feel right at home. The hotel itself is beautifully designed, combining modern luxury with traditional Cretan touches that create a tranquil and inviting atmosphere. The rooms are spacious, impeccably clean, and offer breathtaking views of the sea,...

Hotel is not close to anything. Need to drive 5-10 minutes to the closest village for food etc. but it’s a very pretty seaside village. Room is ok. Need to have better shower drainage. Planning of the hotel is just not very thoughtful. Should have one funicular on both sides of this large hotel. The changing room for the swimming pool is like a 5 minutes walk away. Doesn’t make sense. And why did...
