I absolutely loved the location of Galaxy Villas. It was right in the heart of a charming traditional Cretan village and it was easy to find. The pool and grounds of the property are warm and welcoming. Sophia, the bartender, was by far the highlight. She was so kind and attentive and made sure to remember my name and preferences. She also gave great recommendations for places to go to. Thanks to her, I ended up driving to Chania and Matala, both great spots in Crete. Unfortunately, the room itself left much to be desired. My room needed a deep clean and it smelled like mildew. All of my clothes were damp by the end of the trip when I went to pack and some of them even had mildew growth on them. Honestly, just a deep clean could go a long way. I found the beds to be very hard and uncomfortable. The water in my shower was freezing cold, never heating up, and I addressed this with the front desk, but it was not fixed. Honestly, I would stay at Galaxy again for the hospitality and location, but I do think that some of the faults of the room itself would need to be addressed and corrected before I would book another stay.

From start to finish!.
A very well run, friendly and welcoming establishment. We were welcomed by "Super Mario" on arrival, shown to our rooms and everything was efficiently explained, there were no extra hidden costs as some other reviews suggested including the aircon & safe deposit box. We were not expecting anything "Hilton level" from Galaxy Villas but found our rooms cleaned daily, towels fresh always and our daughters pj's folded in a fan shape with her teddy propped up caringly on her pillow evry day! The bar was well staffed, a special mention to the great Apostoulis and Maria who showed great professionality and friendliness especially to all the children staying there and obviously enjoyed their job. The surrounding areas were again agreably fully stocked with good restaurants and bars- the shops selling a lot of local artiginal products ranging from linens, olive oil based creams, Ouzo etc.. The nearby beaches were well maintained and within easy reach, can highly reccomend the child friendly Aklios beach situated in a cove with rock caves to explore. Spinalonga (reached only by boat) was a fascinating historical trip followed by beaches and a BBQ. We met some lovely people at the Galaxy Villas.. our daughter and ourselves made some good friends during our stay which shows the type of people who chose to stay there and the family atmosphere we found. All in all a thoroughly pleasant stay that I would not hesitate to do again. Once again to all at the Galaxy Villas a BIG thank you.

Spacious apartment, very close to restaurants, shops, car hire and the beach. Lots to do or laze around the pool. Apartment cleaned every day and beds made and depending on person cleaning you get a nicely decoratively folded PJs. We had a self catering appartment but facilities are minimal. So dont plan on cooking much. Lots of places to eat out or in the hotel.
