We stayed here for a few nights and had a wonderful time! The hotel is very nice and the beach was amazing. The owner, George, is very warm and inviting. The whole team at Emi Seaside is kind and take great care to ensure the hotel is pristine- and George himself makes the best strawberry daiquiris we have had!

Staff provided excellent experience and were very helpful during our entire stay. Free onsite parking was actually in an adjacent parking lot that the hotel owns. I recommend going directly to the hotel check-in desk first. After check-in you can turn around at the end of their driveway to exit and move to designated spot next to hotel. Staff provided 5-star service.

Wonderful stay, great location, with welcoming and helpful hosts. I booked one night for my family, and stayed a couple of nights as a solo traveler, and it was ideal. Great private beach, comfortable and clean rooms, delicious breakfast and tiropitas, bar access for the pool or the beach. Great place to hang out, also close to the airport, Knossos, and the old city. Would highly recommend.

The Manager was top notch, we booked last min and was greeted with a drink and asked to wait one moment while the finished getting the room available. Within 5 min we were taken to our room. The staff, location and beach were all so nice we decided to extend our stay an extra day. The Manager once again was able to make arrangements for us to stay in our same room. Will definitely stay here again if we make it back to this Beautiful location.

10/10 Exceptional

Our stay at the hotel was excellent. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and very clean. Breakfast is buffet-style with a wide variety and constant replenishment. There are never delays or waiting due to lack of products. A big plus of the hotel is its direct access to the beach, with sunbeds and umbrellas included. If you get tired of the sand, there is also a beautiful deck with a pool, sunbeds, and tables. Whether on the beach or by the pool, there is permanent bar service. But the real golden touch comes from George and his parents. They welcome all guests with warmth and kindness, always attentive to every detail. In case of any unforeseen event, they show great willingness and professional experience in solving problems. Without a doubt, I highly recommend this hotel and would definitely return. Thank you for such wonderful hospitality!

Our stay at Emi Seaside Resort was absolutely wonderful – everything was great, but the true highlight were the owners, who are simply the best! We really regret that we found this hotel only for our last night, as we would have loved to stay longer. This place definitely deserves more stars!
