This was our 4th visit to this excellent hotel. Everything is as always at the highest level. The breakfasts are excellent, the staff is impeccable, cleanliness, comfort, entertainment program every evening, here we got everything we need for an unforgettable vacation. The hotel's territory is stunningly decorated, like a medieval city surrounded by a garden of Eden. There is clean sand on the beach, comfortable sun beds, beach towels can be changed daily to clean ones. At the exit of the hotel there is a street with shops and taverns where you can eat delicious food and have fun shopping. But the hotel is quiet, as it is separated from the street by a park. I sincerely recommend this hotel, and I would like to come here again with pleasure.

The hotel is well located with a nice beach front bar. Each room from the Adults only hotel had its own spot at the beach with a bottle of water courtesy from the hotel. Breakfast had a good variety of food and the option of having a brunch at Elia restaurant was very nice.

We stayed in a two-bedroom villa with a sea view, two couples, for the second time. The service at the hotel is perfect, the staff is courteous and responds to every request with a smile and kindness. The villa is well-equipped, clean and simply perfect. The location of the hotel is truly dreamy, located on the mountain, with a simply stunning view, and is close to all the main places. Highly recommend staying at this hotel. We will definitely be back♥️

The setting is stunning — nestled among the hills with panoramic views, the hotel offers both tranquility and easy access to everything you could wish for. The rooms are spacious, modern, and beautifully appointed, with every comfort you could imagine. The service deserves the highest praise: professional, attentive, and always delivered with a genuine smile. From the reception to the restaurant and housekeeping, every member of staff made us feel truly valued. The golf course itself is world-class — a pristine championship course that will delight both seasoned players and beginners alike. Even for non-golfers, the hotel offers superb facilities, a relaxing atmosphere, and exquisite cuisine that celebrates the best of Crete.
