great times in Crete
Beautiful resort, the staff are friendly and make you feel welcome. We got there late after a delay from the ferry and they gave us a bottle of white wine and small dinner. The buffet breakfast is great and so have many choices that way you can satisfy your need. The room is big enough a had a semi-private pool and the beach is just across the road and you can hear the waves from out room.

I am a world traveler. I have stayed in 5 star accomodations all over the world, including many beachfront properties. I have also stayed at 2 star hotels and everything in between. This is the worst resort I have ever been to. There is zero information on the website regarding many things I think people need to be aware of. There were 3 of us traveling and we had to have a larger room because of this. The room is at the back of the property, it takes a good 10 min up and down MANY stairs to get to the room. It was perfectly horrendous. I am disabled but not in a wheelchair, I did ask about this ahead of time and was told it was accessible. I was traveling with my elderly mother and it really was hard on her as well. JUST TO GET TO THE BEACH (which is all the way to the front of the property and THEN across the street) took so much out of us that we only went for 1/2 of one day. And other people, just from the public, were there as well. We had to fight to find a chair. No food or drink for sale except for a guy in a van that was driving up and down the street selling fruit. We stayed in the pool area the following day. I was very disappointed because I have a pool at home. I stayed here to be able to use the beach but it was so much work and effort just to get there and find a chair, much less pack food and drink for the day we just gave up. There was an included breakfast buffet, it was okay. The pool area drinks and food were both good and not overly expensive.
