The hotel is right on the beach with beautiful view. They offered an inclusive breakfast, lunch and dinner buffet. It was a large buffet but not a high quality food. We liked the variety of entertainment every night they offered.

Staff was helpful and kind, enjoyed the evening traditional Cretan dance performance which was wonderful. Beach & pools were clean. Opted for the inclusive package, food and drinks with a family was great option with a family of 4. Balancing view of the sea was wonderful to wake up to in the morning. Only downfall on our whole time there was our air conditioning unit in our room was not as cool as we are used too. Overall would recommend this property.

10/10 Exceptional

We had a really relaxing time at the Kalyves beach hotel. What wasn’t clear to us at booking was the “all inclusive” and “all inclusive welcome gift” option. We went for the latter which gave us the “all inclusive plus” package at the hotel and was well worth the small extra cost, giving us unlimited cocktails, room upgrade and discount on the spa. Excellent value for money and still easily got enough for us (27c) at the end of September. The buffet food selection was great for us too as we could pick and choose what we wanted. We loved the stay and the entertainment in the night arranged by Momo was excellent too. Everyone was so friendly and keen to help we felt so looked after and pampered! Fully recommended!

Superb - everything you could want for a relaxing family holiday. Good food choice, nice drinks, 2 pools, amazing beach, beautiful village with central location, anyone criticising place is being picky and pedantic. We would not hesitate to come again.

Decent hotel. Great place for pools and the sea. Food was good and varied each day, entertainment also good. Staff were very friendly. Room was ok, everything you need in there, in our shower the curtain was about 6 inches off the floor so the room got pretty wet but apart from that it was all good.

The staff seemed overwhelmed, dirty dishware sat out for hours on tables. The bathroom was mouldy in many locations, and there were nail clippings on the floor in both the bathroom and the room.

4/10 Fair

Standard room, air condition is a scam, very hot temprature in the night, and they would not help with this when complaining. Beach is nice, and Kalyves is a small and relaxing area with some nice restaurants and fine views, minidisco in the evening was popular with the kids. Boring, repeating food at the hotel.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming! Particularly the ladies on reception and the guys on the bar. Catering staff were fantastic too, nothing was ever too much hassle. The hotel was a great place for couples or lone travellers, very quiet and tucked away so perfect to relax if you’re just seeking to relax for a few days in the sun. The all inclusive was perfect, plenty of food and drink on offer and definitely would advise going for the gold band. Not much more expensive but you have free choice of everything including branded drinks etc. All in all a perfect little chilled, relaxed holiday and we will absolutely be back!

Very Average

After booking a room with a sofa bed and soft bed topper as well as informing the hotel that this was due to traveling with someone who was disabled, we were only given a double room with the hardest mattress and told we could not have a soft bed topper untill the next day. However this was sorted then next day and we were able to move to the room we had booked. Food and beer were what you would expect from a budget hotel, with some poor dishes and some good ones, choice was also quite repetitive. Anyone who enjoys all inclusive, will be ok
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Seems to be a staffing issue at this hotel, the girls on reception were very polite with the exception of one lady called Ria who seemed determined to make things difficult rather than being helpful, we think a customer service coarse may be due!! Also the bar staff were very overworked and at peak times couldn’t cope with the volume of orders. The cleaning was very hit and miss maybe again due to lack of staff? The room was very small and suitcases had to put onto the balcony.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is perfect for a beachy, chilled holiday if that’s what you enjoy. The small town has some shops etc which is good and Chania is only a 30 minute drive away along with Souda which are beautiful towns. Especially the Chania markets! A must go to if you love a bargain! The hotel could be somewhat more clear on what is included etc. The hotel is amazing so don’t let that put you off but we were told the tourist charge was €10 euro per room, per night, which is correct but we were also charged extra and we’re unsure really what that was for. Also we have been twice to this hotel, the first time when booking we had the option available to go all inclusive plus but the second time that option wasn’t available until we arrived at the hotel and it was quite steep compared to the first time we visited the hotel and with not much difference to the basic all inclusive package. After all a gin and tonic is a gin and tonic be that from the local gin or branded big name gin. Overall though, lovely place to stay and the staff are amazing! So helpful and super polite! Will absolutely be back again!

Lovely hotel

Nice hotel for a 5 night stay. Most of the staff were great, Penelope (manager) was fab!! Our room was comfortable though incredibly hot and the A/C was not powerful enough to cool it, the staff kindly provided a plug in fan but still so hot night times were difficult, but I think it was because we were the end of a corridor and therefore had the sun on the exterior wall all day? Food options were good, generally a chicken, pork and fish option at each meal, pretty generic AI food but always something tasty available. Definitely worth upgrading to the higher level all inclusive as drinks options MUCH better with this. However there is only one bar and often only one member of bar staff on so were made to feel a bit guilty on occasion ordering cocktails. They definitely need more staff of an evening and/or another bar space. Location is great, right on the beach, with free sunbeds. Kalyves is a lovely little village to explore with lots of nearby beach bars and restaurants if you want a change of scenery, we hired a car one day to visit Kournas Lake (25 mins drive) using the lovely car hire company in the hotel. Nice gym, not hugely stocked, but suitable for a decent workout. There is also yoga/stretching each morning with the entertainment staff for something more gentle.
