Israelis are very welcome here.

From the moment we arrived, the staff welcomed us warmly, helped with every request, and were simply amazing. The air conditioning in our room didn’t work, and they immediately moved us to another room. Everything we asked for, we received. The hotel has a very relaxed atmosphere, and the kids felt free to use the facilities at any time — even at night. We were invited to meals and greeted warmly throughout the hotel. The food isn’t particularly rich, but it’s decent. We were on a family trip and spent most of the day outside, so it wasn’t a major issue. The location is excellent if you have teenagers, as they can walk in the evening to the nearby clubbing area. The only downside is that if your room is in the main building, there’s quite a bit of walking to get to the beach or the pool.

We enjoyed our stay in Kernos hotel. Big, well maintained area. Really good sandy beach, one of the best in the area. We liked the room, heated floor in the bathroom, lots of storage. We would love to have a kettle in the room. We barely used swimming pool as the water was pretty cold there. Food was good. Breakfast is pretty the same choice, but you will find what you prefer. You will always find something you like during the dinner. George is the best lifeguard on the beach, always friendly and helpful. We felt safe in water under his watch.

The hotel was good overall, the cleaning staff need to wipe the floor of rooms as it is dusty, they also need to add a box of tissues in each room.

10/10 Exceptional

Spacious room bungalow, huge pool, clean beach, plenty authentic greek food, beautiful flowers and traditional grounds. A bit annoying but no kettle to make tea or coffee in room, also no mirror in bedroom, was a challenge to dry hair and get ready for the evening from the bathroom mirror, lack of plug sockets. Cleaners did a good job, although not at a consistent time of day, so appearing early evening at door when you want a shower was not ideal. In the main restaurant the fresh fruit deteriorated in the second week of our stay and the general consistency of food from the previous week went down hill. However there is plenty of places on site to get good food and drink at different points of the day, we particularly enjoyed having a local beer from the bar overlooking the beach at the end of the day. Malia town is a short walk away providing plenty of nightlight and authentic eatieries. The evening entertainment at the hotel throughout our stay was very basic and lacked greek culture and fun! Nearby hotels certainly had much more to offer. The room although was in a lovely quiet part of the hotel and ticked many boxes, the view of the sea was very limited, not really what we expected from advertised and the money paid. The staff do favour the requests of the German clients being the main clientele however it did not ruin our stay and we made the most of our well needed holiday.

4/10 Fair

Positive things: SEA: nice sandy beach with a very clean water. Sea getting deeper very slowly, so perfect for children. BUILDINGS: nice context well integrated and with a flourishing nature around. AREA OUTSIDE: nice for an evening walk. SWIMMING POOL: big and very nice! RESORT AREAS: many good areas near the pool, under the trees or near the restaurant to relax. Negative things: RESTAURANT: A problem is the quality of what is cooked; it looked like a food cooked in a school canteen, not the one it can be expected from a 4 star hotel. Food very repetitive and tailor made for German guests: beans, cobs, wurstel, fried onion rings, fried potatoes croquette, ... Especially in the evening hard to eat and obliged sometimes to eat child food like chicken nuggets and fish fingers, together with same food. They were nice at the beginning but not after a while. Same fruit ot mostly not local/not seasonal (pineapple, apples, pears, grapefruit). RESTAURANT SERVICE: When you order drinks before to sit for dinner you receive them after long time (After buffet picking and eating the meal!) Many times and not understable. The waiter when changing the tablecloth and preparing the table took the salt and pepper and tried to put in my hands while preparing hands while preparing the tablecloth...are you joking?!? Extra: I phoned at the reception and they told me that shower gel and shampoo are provided only at arrival. It's a 4 star resort and never heard this in all the hotels I stayed!
Omelette, one normal, one with strange!!
Strange egg consistency
Morning jam

L’hôtel est très bien situé, sur une plage de sable, avec belle piscine. Belle chambre bungalow avec vue mer et terrasse privée. Les buffets du matin et du soir étaient bien fournis, manquait un peu de diversité. Les boissons (eau, bière et vins) pour les repas et les apéritifs étaient beaucoup trop chers, tenant compte de la qualité des produits.

Hotel war scheinbar überbucht und wir hatten 2 Nächte eine niedrigere Zimmerkategorie als gebucht. Wir haben dafür kostenloses Mittagessen für den gesamten Aufenthalt bekommen, aber es ist dennoch nicht das Erlebnis, dass man möchte und den Aufwand für auspacken/einpacken/siedeln/auspacken. Das Sofabett bzw. die Matratze darauf war eine Frechheit - unsere Kinder haben jede Feder gespürt - es hat eine ganze Wiche gedauert, bis wir einen Topper erhalten haben. Das Petsonal ist freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Essen war ganz ok, allerdings bei starker Auslastung war das Restaurant wirklich am Limit (Sitzplätze, Warteschlange beim Essen) Sauberkeit des Zimmers und des allgemeinen Toiletten war ausbaufähig. Die Anlage ist schön und weitläufig. Alles in allem kein perfekter Aufenthalt, aber das Hotel ist grundsätzlich gut.

Preis-Leistung top! Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Anlage sehr schön begrünt und weitläufig, sodass es nicht zu voll wirkt. Gutes Frühstück inkl. frischer Crepes- & Omlette-Stationen & Toller Sandstrand mit klarem Meer - inkl. hoteleigenen Sonnenliegen (die zwar gerne unerlaubt mit Handtüchern reserviert wurden, aber es gab immernoch genügend Plätze zur Auswahl). Rundherum viele Möglichkeiten zu Shoppen, diverse Restaurants zu besuchen. Wir würden wieder kommen.

- Der Strand ist schön. - Das reservieren der Liegen am Strand ist furchtbar. Man hätte doch pro Zimmer zwei Liegstühle samt Sonnenschirm vergeben können. Dann wäre dies kein Problem.

In die Jahr gekommenes Hotel mit schönem Strand

Großartiger, feiner Sandstrand mit tollen Wellen und Lifeguard. Ausreichend Liegen, saubere und sehr große Pools. Essen ist ausreichend und vielseitig. Gute Qualität. Preise für Getränke schon sehr hoch (0,2l Prosecco für 15€). Personal hilfsbereit aber nicht sehr freundlich (Ende der Saison?) Warmwasser im Zimmer nicht immer vorhanden. Auch ein Wasserausfall war dabei (Toilette….). WLAN nicht stabil aber überall vorhanden.

La struttura è bella, elegante, perfettamente inserita nel paesaggio naturale, molto bello il ristorante sul mare, vicino alla piscina e con diretto accesso alla spiaggia dove ombrelloni e lettini sono gratuiti. Le stanze sono moderne ed arredate con gusto, dotate di un efficiente isolamento acustico e termico. Unico difetto è la mancanza nei bagni di un punto dove appendere gli asciugamani da doccia ed all'esterno di uno stenditoio per teli mare e costumi. Il personale è stato davvero gentile ed il cibo di buona qualità e abbastanza vario. Grazie, consiglieremo senz'altro questa struttura!

Très bon séjour

Le personnel est vraiment au top, l’accueil, la gentillesse,que ce soit à la réception, lors du dîner ou bien encore lors du ménage c’est un sans fautes. Pour ce qui est des repas c’est assez varié et la nourriture est bonne. Ensuite les piscines sont bien et propres. Le jardin est superbe, manger avec vue sur la mer c’est génial. La plage est bien c’est très pratique de pouvoir alterner en plus il y a des douches à la piscine des qu’on sort de la plage donc c’est parfait. Le point négatif : La literie il faudrait revoir les matelas et mettre des couettes au lieu de couvertures.
