"I cannot sing the praises of the River Suites enough! We had a fantastic week-long stay and everything was perfect.

Our room led straight out to the smaller pool and it was idyllic. The hotel is also walkable to Agios Nikolaos in under 30 mins if you take the route along the beach path, so you're close enough to so many...

Top Exo Potamoi Hotel Reviews

Enorme Santanna Island - Premium All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"It’s a beautiful property, luxurious, posh."

Lyttos Mare Adults Friendly 12+

10/10 Excellent

"Lyttos Mare is an absolutely fabulous all inclusive for anyone looking for a relaxing stay in Crete with fantastic service. All of their staff and services were exceptional. Highly recommend"

Creta Maris Resort - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Great resort, good value for money."

The Island - Adults Only

8/10 Good

"The staff are lovely and the room was cleaned every day however the sharing pool needs better cleaning and sweeping around as lots of sand around the private pool area"

Bella Beach - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Smaller, older hotel which was just the right size for a relaxing break. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Some parts of the property were a little tired but this did not detract from the overall experience. Beach was lovely as was the large pool. Food was varied and of a high standard."

Stella Island Luxury Resort & Spa - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"We had such a wonderful stay at Stella Island. The resort is absolutely stunning and feels like a little piece of paradise. The atmosphere is so peaceful and relaxing, and having the beautiful beach so close by made it even more special. The food was honestly the best - so much choice, everything was fresh, beautifully presented and delicious. We were genuinely impressed with the quality of the food throughout our stay. The staff were amazing - so kind, friendly and helpful, always going out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying our stay. Overall, Stella Island is a truly beautiful place with fantastic food, wonderful staff and a gorgeous location. We would definitely love to come back!"

Village Heights Resort

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel, well maintained despite dated rooms. Understand it's all inclusive if you have that option but charging extortionate prices to push people into going all-inclusive (15 EUR for all mixed drinks) is a bit much. Felt like the complimentary bottle of wine was lacklustre and a bit cheap for it was as it was only a half bottle with served with two walnuts and some peanuts. Same with the hotel only leaving a generic Birthday card in the room was really minimal effort that it may as well have not been done. Kind staff though and decent food on-site."

Royal & Imperial Belvedere Resort - All inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"For a relaxing family vacation this was an excellent choice."

Abaton Island Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely week at the Abaton. All the staff were really friendly and helpful particularly when on departure I discovered I had left my straighteners in the room. The staff went above and beyond to locate them…which they did. We did half board which was really handy and the restaurants and food was amazing and in a beautiful setting. The hotel is in a great location and if you don’t fancy the pool there was plenty of beds on the beach. All in all a very restful week and the weather was gorgeous!"
