I had a fantastic stay with a huge L-shaped balcony perfect for soaking up the sun. Loved the daily room service and the delicious breakfast, especially the free fruits and raki shots. No issues with the shower despite its size!

The smoked salmon bagels were a game changer, like a heavenly bite of Cretan delight. The restaurant staff were super friendly, and the location was a breeze for finding local gems. Plus, the pool was clean and perfect for lounging!
Dinner was a bit of a letdown. the surprise menu was not up to par, serving food that looked rough and tasted even worse. We wished for more variety instead of those tiny joke desserts.

Our family room was spacious and very clean, perfect for 4 of us. Showers were super powerful, and those beds? So comfy! Breakfast was decent, but get there early to snag the good stuff. Overall, the room met our needs without any complaints.

I loved my stay! The room was spacious, clean, and adorned with a good balcony that offered fresh air with every morning coffee. The staff went above and beyond, even swapping rooms so we could be closer to family during our time there. Plus, being just a short stroll from the beach and great local restaurants made every day an adventure!

A Surprisingly Pleasant Stay
We spent one night in a lovely double room with excellent air conditioning. Enjoyed quiet afternoons on our sunny balcony! The nearby restaurant served amazing dishes. every meal was more delightful than the last. Pro tip, use the bus stop right outside for easy access to Heraklion!
