You'll be spoiled for sightseeing choice when spending time in Kolymvari. Orthodox Academy of Crete is a good place to begin here, but there are plenty of other worthy places to experience. Afrata Beach, Karavitakis Winery, and Ravdouha Beach are near the higher education institution and will top off your day nicely.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (35 reviews)
Our stay at Vertali was made truly special by the outstanding customer service. Every member of the team was warm, welcoming, and genuinely committed to making our vacation memorable. From the moment we arrived until the day we left, we felt cared for and appreciated.
A very special thank you to Kiki, whose kindness, professionalism, and positive energy stood out every single day. She consistently went above and beyond and made us feel like valued guests rather than just another room number.
I’d also like to recognize the incredible breakfast team. Their friendliness and attention to detail did not go unnoticed.
Exceptional service is what transforms a great hotel into an unforgettable experience, and the team at Vertali did exactly that. Thank you for making our holiday so enjoyable. We will consider back again and create beautiful memories at Ventali.

8/10 Very Good! (1 review)
The toilet seat was broken, and we had to wait half a day for it to be fixed. The Wi-Fi was terrible, and we couldn’t get a 5G signal at all.
The soundproofing in the room was awful. On our last night, a couple staying in the room above us were fighting and shouting, waking us up at 4 a.m. We informed the manager, but he was unable to resolve the situation. As a result, the noise, shouting, and arguing continued, and we weren’t able to fall back asleep.
Since it was our check-out day, we asked if it was possible to extend our stay in the room. The manager said they could only extend it by one hour, which wasn’t helpful. In the end, our entire day before the flight was ruined because we were exhausted from the lack of sleep.
A few more downsides:
It takes more than an hour to get to Chania from the hotel, and the bus is usually overcrowded.
There are no shops nearby.
On the positive side, the area is very peaceful, the beach is within walking distance, and the food offers a good variety to suit different tastes. Other than that, it’s pretty much the same as any standard all-inclusive hotel.
