Should be 5*

This hotel is small but it should be a 5* hotel as it is one of the best I have tried. And I travel 30-35 days a year.

The staff was just fantastic

The entire staff went above and beyond in every aspect. Once they heard we were checking out early, b4 breakfast, they made 2 "to go" breakfasts that we could eat on the ferry. I cant say enough about the staff and property. Our only mistake was not renting a car, but we were there to relax

Our first time in Crete. The hotel was amazing. Along with our VIP access we received an upgrade including a private jacuzzi. The views were stunning. The Spa services and facilities were one of the best I have experienced.

Cretan stay

We had an amazing time. Nothing was too much trouble. Food in the restaurant was so tasty. And beautiful views..
Lydia, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The rooms were stunning, we had a private pool and it was so worth it! The views from everywhere in the hotel are gorgeous. Clean rooms, luxurious and comfortable! The only downside is that it is away from the main city but we were ok with that since we mostly wanted to have a relaxing couple of days before the next leg of our honeymoon! Highly recommend :)
Natasha, 2-night trip

wonderful suite with private pool excellent design of the new area - pool bar and restaurant in the new area are not open yet - breakfast does not match the quality of the new hotel facility But we are sure it will be a fantastic place once the whole new area is open next year! Highly recommended!

Repos absolu

Séjour très agréable dans un hôtel très récent avec 2 grandes piscines, un personnel aux petits soins, des chambres raffinées et très confortables avec un superbe vue sur la mer. 2 grandes salles de sport très bien équipées. Petit déjeuner extraordinaire!!! Hôtel perdu dans la montagne, loin de tout, ce que nous nous recherchions ! Seul point négatif pour le jacuzzi de notre chambre était HS et nous n’avons donc pas pu l’utiliser pendant une partie de notre séjour.

Un hôtel exceptionnel sur tous les plans

Le service, les chambres, l’accueil,… tout était exceptionnel! C’est un endroit calme avec une vue exceptionnelle. La nourriture est très bonne, et on se sent à l’aise tout au long du séjour. De plus, le directeur de l’hôtel nous a laissé un cadeau. Il est à noter qu’il est préférable d’avoir une voiture pour aller aux restaurants/cafés en bord de mer. 10/10
