Where to stay in Crete

A cool place with excellent vibes, music and attractions for the entire family. The service is awesome in the beach bars. I must write specifically the cheff Giorgos Skoulikaris and su cheff Manouiswho assisted us greatly with Gluten free dishes for our kid. Ever time we asked for a dish we got it, even if they had to go out of their way to prepare. They were absolutely superb and we are sure to take...

A very beautiful place for a family vacation we took. The front desk team were very welcoming, assisting us with all our needs all along our stay. Very big verity of food and beverages served along to day, presented on the dining halls with explanations. Great 'Kids food' corner with everything kids love. Very pleasant stuff on dining halls. Plenty of activities for all ages, along the whole day...

We stayed at Star Beach in Crete and had a wonderful experience overall. The hotel is large, very clean, and the staff are kind and helpful. The food was generally varied and tasty – we especially enjoyed the Cretan restaurant, which was excellent. The only slight disappointment was the Asian restaurant, which did not meet our expectations. The hotel is fantastic for families with children. There...

Very fun end Natalia grate girl end we love her very much!!! The pool is great Thank you very much for everything And the food was tasty

I traveled with two children, aged 9.5 and 7.5. The experience at the hotel was perfect – excellent service, a wide variety of food, lots of attractions for the kids, and plenty of activities. In short, there's no doubt that we’ll be coming back again.

Very nice hotel, we had room in Athina building, pool party wont hear there. Pool areas are big and clean.. if u go 10:00am you got good place. Lot of kids in hotel, we have one in holiday.

Beach, city near by. Variety, good, nice people Bed is little bit soft, clean Some public sanitary not very clean Nice helpfull

Lovely location great staff. Very clean and grounds beautiful and well maintained. Upgraded rooms very nice. Could have done with extra blankets as option in cooler months. Better signage would be helpful on such a large complex to find way around easier. Some of the rooms need a bit of updating with decor plus e.g hair dryers, water pressure in showers is low in some rooms. In cooler season patio...

Kalimera Kriti Hotel & Resort just outside the little town Sissi on the North East side of Crete is a paradise. With its unique architecture built like a small Greek village with lots of trees and flowers Kalimera Kriti is by far one of the most beautiful hotels in Crete. In addition a friendly staff always at your service make a stay at Kalimera Kriti to a perfect vacation for everyone even families...

A little piece of paradise, with some downsides. The upsides: The site is gorgeous - around every corner there are new pretty views, plants, trees buildings, the beach, the sea. The pools are incredible - the largest is 50m long and there's plenty of space for people to relax, play and get their laps in. There always seems to be space - a sun lounger on the beach or by the pool, or a table on the...

The room definitely needs updating. There was ants, it smelt like sewage and a few things Broken, when the room was cleaned didn’t seem like anything was done, just the bed made. Also it was weird with being a 5* hotel but no drinks provided in the mini fridge, had to walk for ages down to the shop to get water:( 💧

Our stay at the hotel was truly exceptional! The staff were polite, welcoming, and always ready to assist with anything we needed. The spa was a wonderful relaxation experience. Our spa therapist Chrysa provided us a truly wonderful treatment . Her expertise and attention to detail were evident throughout, making the whole experience unique.

I did a treatment with the therapist Marina and she was fantastic! She was professional and caring and I will recommend her It was a very pleasant time in Aegeo spas in Kalimera Kriti with Marina

We were guests in this Hotel for 7 days. Superior Hotel, clean and nice. Our rooms comfortable with a nice view to the Pools. Food & Beverages tasteful and always enough. We don‘t had missed anything! @ Management: You have a great Team in place! Special thanks To Evelina - every morning starts with her smiling; To Anna - she offered outstanding Service every evening in the Main restaurant To Wasilis...

Heartfelt Thanks for Making Our Honeymoon Truly Special Dear Giorgos maitre and Chef Giorgos, We would like to express our deepest gratitude to you both and to your wonderful team for making our stay at Lyttos Mare an unforgettable experience. My wife and I were celebrating our honeymoon, and from the very first moment we arrived, we felt incredibly welcomed and cared for. Giorgos, matre your kindness...

The hotel was absolutely amazing! The property is beautiful, very clean, and well-maintained, with attention to every little detail from the elegant lobby to the spacious and comfortable rooms. The atmosphere is both luxurious and welcoming, making it easy to feel relaxed from the very first moment. The service was outstanding the staff are always smiling, friendly, and attentive, providing a true...

An amazing performance suitable for the whole family. I highly recommend Alice in Wonderland - it was absolutely magical from start to finish. The production was captivating, the actors were incredibly talented, and the staging and costumes were stunning. Every moment was filled with creativity, humor, and charm. A truly unforgettable experience that both children and adults will enjoy!

We had a truly amazing holiday at Lyttos Mare! Our room with a private pool right on the beach was perfect for our family. With a small child, it was a dream – he could swim and play safely while we relaxed on the balcony, enjoying the sea breeze and the comfort of the room. It made our stay both relaxing and stress-free. But what made this trip even more special was the wonderful service. We want...

The gym coach is amazing! Super friendly, helpful, and always in a great mood he made my workouts here even better. The hotel itself is fantastic too.. great vibe and everything well taken care of!

Exceptionally neat and exceptionally comfortable. The service rendered is of the highest quality. While there is room for improvement in the meals offered (please note that I have dietary restrictions concerning pork, seafood, and milk-based meat preparations), there was always a diverse range of food options available, and I managed to find suitable choices. The hotel staff is genuinely exceptional...

I had a wonderful experience at this hotel. From the moment I arrived, the staff were welcoming, friendly, and attentive to every detail. The check-in process was smooth, and my room was spotless, beautifully decorated, and very comfortable. The bed was incredibly cozy, and the view from the window was stunning. The amenities were top-notch — especially the breakfast buffet, which offered a great...

My fiancé and I stayed here for 1 week at the start of October. Mitsis Rinela is a beautiful hotel. The rooms are beautiful, modern and kept immaculately clean. The rest of the hotel is also beautiful, reflecting the same standard of upkeep. The Reception and main restaurant is a little dated in decor in comparison, but again, immaculately clean. The sun loungers are luxurious and comfortable, with...

Warm welcomed, the guest relations and concierge ladies were lovely, in general the whole front office team. Our room was amazing, modern and clean, every day our mini bar was refilled and the room was being cleaned spotless. The food was good but Steak was amazing. We loved the pool but the beach was wow! Sandy and clean! Felt nice having lifeguards to watch on us. We had a great stay!

Mitsis Rinela exceeded all my expectations! The serene and beautifully designed surroundings instantly put me at ease, making it the perfect escape. The staff here is absolutely wonderful—always smiling and ready to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. Our room was a dream—spacious, bright, and immaculately clean. The main restaurant has something for everyone, with a fantastic variety of options...

One of the best hotels in Crete! The environment and design make you feel so relaxed and safe. Staff is amazing and always there smiling and ready to assist. Rooms are clean, luminous and spacious. The Main Restaurant has various options that may cater all kind of preferences and needs. From the a la carte restaurants, I tried the Taverna, which was a lovely greek dining experience and on my last day...

Our stay was very nice. Thank you very much. Organisation is Perfect!

Awesome place Fantastisk hotell. Everything was just awesome. It was like staying in a little village, they had everything inside the perimeter. All you can eat, drink etc. shops, outdoor activities, playgrounds pools for the kids. Beautiful view to the sunset/sunrise. Big pool Olympic size, smaller pools. The staff all over the place was amazing and service minded

"Lyttos Beach is an absolute gem! The crystal-clear waters and powdery sand make it a perfect spot to relax and soak up the sun. The scenic views are breathtaking, and the beach is well-organized with amenities nearby. Whether you're looking to swim, sunbathe, or try your hand at water sports, Lyttos Beach has something for everyone. The atmosphere is calm and serene, making it an ideal destination...

Nice location to the beach, staff were friendly. Hotel does look tired in some areas and food was average.

Fantastic facilities and great options for all ages. Food quality is fantastic and the main restaurant has themed nights to keep it varied. Most of the food is also cooked fresh in open kitchens which is great. The dining area can be a bit noisy but there’s an adults only area which I’m sure would be quieter. Room was fantastic for us. We had 2 adjoining rooms for a family of 5 and had 4 separate...

Fantastic Stay at Lyttos Beach Hotel, Crete 🇬🇷🏖️ We spent 7 nights at Lyttos Beach Hotel on an all-inclusive family break during the UK autumn half-term. It was an excellent experience from start to finish! ✈️ Travel & Location Our trip was booked with Jet2 Holidays, flying from Leeds Bradford Airport. The flight should have been 3.5 hours, but we had a 4-hour delay. Thankfully, once we landed,...

Stayed here in May half term 2024. Awesome place. The water park section kept my 13 and 11 year old entertained for hours. Food selection was great and the sports facilities were excellent also. We would definitely come back.

The best hotel I've ever been to. The staff are welcoming and attentive. The hotel is sublime. It's a feast for the eyes. The atmosphere is great. I highly recommend it.

Decent hotel, amazing food choice! Overall a satisfactory stay. Hotel quality could have been better, however the food choice and quality was exceptional.

Rather average overall. Everything OK, but the main restaurant food was rather average and repetitive. It felt like canteen food. Staff we very nice with decent service. Rooms OK. Wellness average. Beach, with rocks so not easy to swim.

What a great stay We had a great stay. Very friendly staff.. amazing service. We’re command and we shall come again.

great staff especially in the main restaurent, but everybody was super nice. great food.calm. i would have liked more entertainment ( during the day and night) so i could come next time with my teenagers kids next time, but this is what make this place extra quiet. again super nice staff, good alchool selection ( not only cheap stuff), good food

Very clean. Friendly stuff. Tasty food.

Good location. The reception looks nice and staff is friendly. We had agreed on a wakeup call since we had an early morning flight but they forgot that, we got up with our own alarms so that turned out fine fortunately. The reception area looks nice, the rooms are old and need some upgrade. I would not classic this as a 5 star hotel, 3 stars at top. The staff was very friendly and helpful! And the...

One of the authentic hotels in crete island. It was built in 1964 originally. It seems renovated recently. Good view on harbor side. Hotel staffs are friendly and professional. Only weak point is GYM 🏋️‍♀️ facilities. Relatively small and lack of machines. Smell from the gym is not good..

The hotel is in an ideal location. But I would never call this a 5 star hotel the toilet was dirty the swimming pool was small. For 5 stars i expected alot more. Furthermore on their website it said that they have parking. However once we got to the hotel they told us that they have one but only a very very small one, basically they refused our car and told us to park it somewhere else. Honest decent...

This is decidedly not a 5 star hotel although they think they are. You arrive and there is no one to even ask if they can take your bags let alone actually do it. There is no bellman at the door. Front desk couldn’t find the reservation and grilled us for the proof although our tour company made it months previous. A 5 minute check-in took a frustrating 20 minutes because when they finally found it...

Aquila Atlantis Hotel is a solid place to stay in Heraklion - the location is excellent, close to the city center and easy to explore nearby sights and walkable to great food spots. I don't think I would call it a 5-star because the carpets could be updated and the amenities were basic, but it was a comfortable stay and a fair price. Breakfast was good, decent variety, but the coffee machine wasn't...

The hotel looks a bit dated but still okay. The staff are very nice and warm. The breakfast buffet was also very good with a wide variety. Room was clean and spacious.

Got back last week after a 7 day stay here. Family of four and we all had great relaxing time. Soon as reach resort greeted with smiles all round. Agapi who works at main restaurant was amazing with my kids that my smallest kid only wanted to eat at that restaurant so she can see her. Lucy and ruby at the kids club are fantastic. As the kids had great time we as a couple could just relax. Waterpark...

Returned to vacation at Stella Palace after two years, the vacation as usual was perfect, we arrived 3 families with children who were in the water park all day. Always treats of ice cream and soft drinks around the pool. The dining room is large and luxurious, there is plenty to eat for everyone from adults to children. The water park is huge and there are facilities for everyone. The service from...

We recently celebrated my 40th birthday at Stella Palace with my family and our friends' family, and it was a truly fantastic experience. The hotel has a great atmosphere and is perfect for a group getaway. The kids, and the adults, loved the impressive water park. While the double tube floats were in short supply at times, it didn't stop us from having a blast. The dining was very good. The main...

We had a wonderful stay at Stella Palace Aqua Park Resort! The staff were always smiling, kind, and incredibly helpful, which made the whole experience even better. The facilities are excellent, and the food is of very high quality, special mention to the Elia and Almyra restaurants, which were outstanding. The water park is fantastic, with plenty of attractions for both kids and adults. Personally...

The scuba instructor was… let’s say not always the most customer centric. Not a hotel staff but they sub contracted

The food is exceptionally good and everyone in the staff is very friendly. It's a beautiful resort with lots of comfortable sunbeds around the pools. There is animation but not too late and not too loud. Best all-in hotel ever!

Just back from a few days here, it was a great trip, before we arrived I reached out to the hotel as had a few questions, Matthew kindly answered them and was very helpful. Upon arrival we were shown to our suite, the hotel had gone above and beyond with providing champagne, chocolate cake and towel swans with fresh flowers laid out for us. The suite was stunning with our own private pool which was...

First time visiting Crete and had a wonderful experience not least because of our fantastic stay at the Mirabello Bay Luxury Resort. Starting with the amazing customer care given by everyone right from the reception welcome to housekeeping and the restaurant staff. You truly feel they all aim to create the best guest experience and prioritise taking care of their guests. A special shout out needs to...

Overall a good stay. The only issues I had is that my room was next to the cleaning persons room. So it was very loud in the morning and the doors in the hallways slam shut so that woke me up several times throughout the morning. This is a kid friendly resort so there are a LOT of kids so just be mindful when booking. The beach was dirty more than likely due to the kids. The staff are all very friendly...

I stayed in this hotel for one week with my family and we had a truly enjoyable experience. The Waterpark is fantastic for children, offering lots of fun and activities. The beach is very comfortable and well equipped, perfect for relaxing. Our room was soundproof and had all the amenities we needed to feel at home. The food was excellent, with a good variety and high quality. There is no mini club...

Exceptional stay. The property was amazing with lots to places to chill and relax. The food was absolutely amazing With lots of variety in the buffet including for kids and toddlers. Perfect for a family trip. They had thought of everyway to make our stay comfortable and even gave us an upgrade to all inclusive. Highly recommend and a must visit

The rooms were spacious and clean ! The cleaning ladies and the staff were really helpful and smily. We were amazed by the sea view.

is so beautiful with such lovely views over the sea, from every angle

Amazing property. Staff and front desk were super nice and courteous. One thing I didn’t realize is you’d have to stay there for a minimum 3 nights to dine at one of their fine restaurants. Other than that, the buffet food was amazing for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Overall, we had a great experience and would come back if we chose to!

The best solo trip I have been on. Staff are so friendly and welcoming and really go out of their way for you. Loved the 8am morning yoga sessions and the teachers were excellent. The pool and amenities were amazing. The beach is only a few minutes walk from the hotel. I had a sea view room and the morning sunrise was incredible. I will definitely be coming back!

The property was absolutely breathtaking! It sat on the side of a cliff and was beyond beautiful. All the stuff were incredibly friendly. I've stayed in dozens of all inclusive resorts and this one takes the cake!

Beautiful resort, amazing customer service. The Oceana restaurant (the only one with any availability the week we were there, one slot @8:30pm) was only ok, I think the buffet was better. We had a problem with our room and the electricity going out, each room in the 010-019 stretch seem to be on individual breakers. Our new room was great with no issues. The contents of our fridge from the first room...

Great place. Amazing food. Housekeeping room service twice a day. Amazing views from all parts of the resort.

We enjoyed our stay at Arina Beach in September as much as we did the first time last year in June. As a family with a 4 year old kid, it is a nice place to rest as we had all the facilities. The variety of fresh and tasty food, the long seaside shore , a lot of pools, every evening shows, friendly and careful staf, comfortable and spacious rooms with seaside view. A few bus stations away we visited...

We really enjoyed the vacation at this hotel. The food was excellent, the location is right on the beach. The water is crystal clear when there are no waves. In the right part of the hotel beach there is another beach that is protected by some micro islands from the big waves. The water is shallow which makes it perfect for small children. The rooms are large and are cleaned daily. The entire hotel...

The place, beach, food, pools, and events were just amazing! Unfortunately, my overall experience wasn’t great. One day I had to call the service desk to get the room cleaned, and another day it was completely forgotten even though we had selected the clean-room option while we were away. A cleaner even opened the door while we were inside, despite the “Do Not Disturb” sign being on. I had also booked...

Stayed with wife and my 3 years old daughter. Everything was great, we got a bit earlier to the hotel but we got our room earlier as well (at about 12 PM) Rooms are nice and are cleaned daily. Some minor maintenance might be required here and there but not a deal breaker Food was excellent and the variety was great as well. Plenty to choose from The beach is one of the best I've ever visited, very...

Last day of our 1 week holiday today so thought I would write a review to praise the amazing staff at Arina Beach. We stayed in the maisonette with pool. 3 teenage kids upstairs in 3 single beds (with their own showerroom) and my husband and I downstairs in a kingsize bed with our own showerroom (very small). Room was very clean, soft drinks and bottled water included in the fridge. Wifi was good....

We had a fantastic holiday at Arina Beach Resort and were truly impressed! The hotel is beautiful and well-maintained, with a lovely seaside promenade and a relaxing atmosphere. The staff were friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist with anything we needed. You can really tell that guest satisfaction is a priority here. One of the absolute highlights of our stay was the food. The restaurants...

I recently stayed at Palmera Seaside Hotel for four nights at the end of June, and honestly, it was such a lovely experience from start to finish. The hotel is perfectly located right next to the sea, and the view from the room terrace was absolutely stunning—especially in the evenings with the cool sea breeze. It made every moment on the balcony feel special. I chose the half-board option and I’m...

My stay was absolutely wonderful! From the moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed by an extremely polite, attentive, and helpful team. I especially want to highlight the front desk staff — they are truly a 10 out of 10! Always friendly, available, and ready to assist with genuine kindness. Every team member showed great care and attention to detail. The room was beautiful, very well-lit, cozy, and...

We had an amazing experience and stay at the Palmera Beach Hotel & Spa. The staff really go out of their way and we the food to be of exceptional quality & taste. We choose a half board package and really enjoyed having breakfast and dinner at the hotel. Both dinner and breakfast is buffet style, but dinner is really on a league on its own, there are some true master chefs behind the scenes here. ...

From the moment we arrived, the service at this hotel was truly exceptional. We were warmly greeted at the door, setting the tone for an unforgettable stay. Every staff member, from the welcoming at reception to the chef who made personal dining recommendations...everyone went above and beyond. The food was delicious with a good variety and nice wine options for lunch or dinner. The spa services are...

I stayed at Palmera Beach Hotel in Crete on a solo trip, and it was a truly wonderful experience. The hotel has a beautiful, relaxing atmosphere, and everything was clean and well-maintained. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, which made me feel very comfortable from the moment I arrived. The food was absolutely delicious – every meal was fresh, varied, and full of flavor. I especially...

Very good service! Congratulations to all the employees and especially to Mrs. Eleni. Very beautiful rooms. The breakfast was rich and delicious, the location was good, in front of the sea. Maybe I would have liked the gym to be open 24 hours because 8-6 was not very convenient for us who came for a business trip. Otherwise everything was wonderful.

We had a wonderful stay at Minos Hotel in Crete! From the moment we arrived, we was warmly welcomed by the friendly and professional staff. The hospitality throughout my stay was exceptional – everyone went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and at home. The service was truly outstanding, with attention to every detail. The rooms were clean and well-maintained, the food was delicious, and...

Overall, we had a lovely week at this hotel. The rooms were nicely decorated, reasonably modern, and kept clean and tidy. Breakfast was fantastic with lots of choice, drinks were reasonably priced, and both pools were enjoyable. The main negative was the broken door to our hotel room which took 5 days to be fixed properly despite repeated complaints. It left our room insecure - and while there was...

Very nice hotel, friendly staff and helpful and enjoy our stay so relaxed and good food and drink and everything you need for your holiday

We were totally amazed by this hotel! Irini, Judy, Vicky and the rest are just so helpful and answered all of our questions. We have visited this hotel seven times and it bacame even more better regarding the facilities. The location is very convenient! We recommend!!!! We are coming back soon! Thank you Minos Hotel for making our vacation special !

Lovely hotel, let down by 2 silly things. Firstly, nobody was allowed to use the pool until 10.30am. Unclear why as breakfast was at 7.30 so most people were out by 9.30am. The over zealous entertainment lady made a small child cry for using the pool at 10.15. All seemed a bit dramatic, not bothering anyone and cleaning was done early morning and then water tested throughout the day when people were...

Aboustley loved the hotel and especially the staff, I have a artistic 12 year old son and all the staff was very kind and very understanding of Ethan, This really made myself and my partner relax. A big thank you to Timothy and Erica for bring so kind to my son. It is a lovely hotel very clean and tidy and we would 100% recommend this hotel. Very close to the beach and restaurants and supermarket...

Outstanding hotel with excellent staff, friendly, professional, warm and responsive. Room extremely comfortable. Loved sitting out on balcony overlooking park with chairs, footstools and table. Very comfortable bed. Great shower. Spacious room. Breakfast was outstanding. Great location. So glad we chose Olive Green. Don’t miss the archeological museum!

I was tired from traveling, so I chose a centrally located hotel with front desk service, which was acceptable. I booked two nights on Ctrip, but the hotel provided two separate reservations, with different rooms and different rates, requiring separate check-ins. This meant I had to pack and check out after one night, then check in, and then go back to the front desk after 2 PM to get a key card for...

The Olive Green Hotel is a clean, friendly and helpful place to stay, in a great location in the middle of the best parts of Heraklion. The food at the restaurant is decently priced and tasted great, the staff were super helpful and can organise taxi's to the airport or port. The rooms are well priced and larger, which makes things easier for a longer stay.

It was nicely centrally located and not overcrowded. The restaurant next door is highly recommended, offering a variety of dishes; you even get a discount if you're a hotel guest. Breakfast was small, compact, but varied. The price-performance ratio was okay.

We had a wonderful stay at Olive Green Hotel! The staff were friendly, the atmosphere was relaxing, and the whole place was very well maintained. What really made our stay special was the birthday package I booked through their website. Everything was perfectly arranged — we received a lovely cake, fresh flowers, wine, and festive balloons in the room. It was such a thoughtful touch and really added...

Wonderful time there. Staff were very kind and friendly, were eager to help! Was in a great location, very near bus stop and port as well as great shops nearby such as pharamacy, restaurants and souvenirs. The food served there was really good, we had linguine pesto and smash burger.

Excellent quality hotel with a large and beautiful swimming pool, very comfortable rooms and professional and attentive staff. A true 5* hotel, a 5-minute walk from the historic center of Heraklion. This is not our first stay and we are never disappointed. The price-quality ratio is absolutely correct.

A lady at the front desk was very enthusiastic and patiently recommended food and group tours, great 👍

The room was great! The hotel is in a convenient location and the service is great. It should be the best hotel on the island? There are so many delicious things to do on Ke Island! The slow-roasted lamb is really delicious! !

we could not find a hotel in the southern crete, and luckly it is only one hour drive back to heraklion. this is the best hotel we could find in the souther area of keraklion.

We were seven people in our group. We had an amazing stay over here very recently. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Though rooms are a bit small for our liking, they’re very nicely decorated. Beds are comfortable. All the amenities one needs are provided.

The staff are very enthusiastic and friendly, breakfast has many delicious dishes.

I had a great experience at Knossos. Excellent location, rooms, and customer service.

The place is beautiful! Very quiet and adult friendly. We had a few issues with our heated pool and they were remedied immediately. The food choices were outstanding and delicious. Customer service was excellent.

We had an amazing time in the hotel. Thanks to all the staff for making it great. The facilities are wonderful. The views are outstanding, especially at night. I love the cabanas at the beach. They have different foods each night in the buffet restaurants. The food is great with a wide range to suit everyone. Feels everything in the hotel is done with thought, and care for the well-being of the guests...

We had a fantastic stay at Knossos Beach! The food was very good. The Service did a great Job, staying very attentive, kind and helpful all the time. Only (very small) disclaimer was the Sounds of the Planes due to the proximity of the Airport. We highly recommend to book a room with a Cabana - it's absolutely worth every Cent!

We were upgraded to a bungalow upon arrival but couldn’t find the cabana reserved for it anywhere on the beach. The food was good at the buffet. We like to eat outside, but we were overwhelmed by the amount of cigarette smoke at almost every meal.

Nice place. Advertised as a five star but far from it. Staff friendly and helpful. Food good but DO NOT buy the meal package

This is the second year in a row I’ve sent my wife, daughter, and mother-in-law to Grecotel Caramel, and once again – they came back absolutely thrilled! This place is a rare gem that combines luxury, comfort, and genuine care. A huge thank you to the entire hotel staff – their warmth and professionalism make all the difference. A special mention to Maria and Alexander, the hotel managers – their...

This place is just a perfection ! Everything here is amazing 😍😍😍 We came here already a second time and we hope to come back as soon as possible ! Staff , hotel, room , food , pool, beach here are OMG - the best of the best ! Big big love and see you soon ❤️❤️❤️

This property has completely redefined what 5-star hospitality means to me. We stayed for 4 nights and it was so relaxing, we didn’t even feel the need to step out and explore the rest of Crete. There are a few things that make this place quite unique but top of the list has to be the level of personalization. The staff appear to know the names of all the guests and remember minor details, which is...

Together with my wife i came to this elegant and beautiful hotel. The rooms are tastefully decorated and very well maintained. The service in the whole hotel is impeccable and with a warm and welcoming touch. You absolutely have to have dinner at the Fine Dining à la carte hotel restaurant close to the pool area. Food and wines are delicious! The Caramel Grecotel is an excellent choice if you come...

Amazing resort! Very friendly and professional staff The food is EXCELLENT Beautifully maintained landscape So grateful for the staff Eleni gave a great tour of the premises and was on standby to help us out Very kids friendly So many activities but the pool was the big winner!

We booked this hotel having read the fabulous reviews, however we were very disappointed with our sea view suite. You could see the sea, above the buildings opposite, The furniture was cheap looking with no dressing table area or desk or wardrobe and only one chair. A gap under the front door, which led onto the balcony on the roadside meant every moped that went past wake us up. The staff that...

The location is very good and convenient to go everywhere!

The hotel is in a great location in the city center, convenient for shopping and visiting museums. The sink is in the bedroom, and the bathroom contains both a toilet and shower. After showering, the entire bathroom floor was flooded. I suggest the hotel separate the shower and toilet areas with a full door.

Great location, very comfortable bed

great location near the entrance of the old town. close to the port and bus stop. room was clean with amenities provided

Parking was available 👍 The roof ventilation was very loud at the pool, so unfortunately a longer stay at the pool was not possible for me. The hotel is a bit older, the rooms could do with renovation, everything was very worn.

Nice and pretty modern rooms. Great breakfast buffet. Wifi not reliable. Some cheap parkings nearby. Busy area but not noisy. Many nice restaurant options nearby.

Fantastic resort in the Olive groves, with spectacular views on to Spinalonga island! Exceptional service at all the restaurants. Really warm and helpful staff at the Haute Living, especially Lily & Eleni. The house-keeping staff were lovely. Highlight for us was the kids club, led by Eleni and her wonderful team! Our daughter ran in every day-the absolute best we’ve ever experienced!

If you visit Crete, Domes of Elounda is a “must stay”! From arrival to departure we were so impressed with this resort. The facility is beautiful and the accommodations were spacious and welcoming. We especially appreciated our private pool! Food served at both the breakfast and dinner buffets were absolutely delicious. But what really makes this resort a five star experience is the professional and...

If you are searching for the perfect balance between five-star luxury and genuine family-friendly hospitality, then look no further than the Domes of Elounda, Autograph Collection, nestled on the picturesque coast of Crete, Greece. This resort offers more than just a holiday—it offers an experience that imprints on your heart, a destination so remarkable that leaving feels more like saying goodbye...

Large resort hotel for couples and families, set in a beautiful location between Elounda and Plaka, overlooked by the fortress island of Spinalonga. There is a spa, great selection of restaurants, choice of pools and chauffeured golf carts to move around the resort. There are various room choices, the pool villas being superb with an array of personal facilities including a washing machine. There...

I am a global traveler being fortunate to have stayed in many amazing resorts. This place is amazing! All the details are considered. If you’re debating on coming here, just come and enjoy you won’t regret it. Beach, food, pool, service, service, facilities all best-in-class!

We were blown away by our first visit to the Domes of Elounda! Gorgeous property with breathtaking views and lots of amenities and small touches to elevate the experience for families with young kids. The Kids Club is amazing and staffed by exceptional women (Eleni, Connie and Debbie)! The concierge team were also very helpful with volunteering information and suggestions (esp Harry, Rena and Marina...

Very friendly staff and good location

My family and I stayed at Legacy Gastro Suites for seven nights in early July, and it was simply perfect.
