My wife and I stayed at this hotel to celebrate her birthday. Due to problems at Athens airport, we arrived late, check-in was simple and we were given a sea view room. The room was large, it had a large bed, TV, safe, fridge (soft drinks), coffee machine, dressing gowns, slippers, toiletries, hairdryer, very modern shower with various settings and a bottle of wine with two glasses. The bathroom sink was unusual as it did not have mirror or held the water thus making a wet shave difficult. As it was low season, there was only the buffet restaurant and the main bar that was open. There was plenty of choices with the food and drinks. The service was excellent and attentive, especially by Stella who kept everybody’s glasses filled. The staff were friendly and the housekeeping team kept the hotel in tip top condition. Karina was the Animator who organised her daily sports and social activities, the best one for us was the Folklore dancing team. The hotel had a modest gym consisting of running machines, bike, cross trainers and a multigym that I used daily in the morning. Due to the low season, the town was deserted and shops closed, it was like a ghost town. We enjoyed our walks in town and along the empty beach. This was our first visit to Crete and we enjoyed it, we met some really wonderful people during our stay. I would recommend this hotel and hope to return soon. NB: Each room is charged a tourist tax. Taxi fares can be expensive to/from the airport, so book in advance.
