"The hotel location is fantastic, very peaceful, with well kept and beautiful grounds. Food is excellent, staff and service equally so. Whilst the rooms are basic ours was very clean and the swim up pool, whilst shared with two other rooms, felt private. We had a wonderful ten days all inclusive, which was excellent value. We'd 100% return! Not a place to go if you're bothered about watching television 🙂"

Top Petrokefálion Hotel Reviews

Idi Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulous hotel !!! 5 Star"

Paralos Irini Mare

10/10 Excellent

Traditional Cretan Houses

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay at the Aphrodites apartment. Uniqueness and quiet serenity of this traditional Cretan house in the mountains would be hard to match. We would be happy to return."

Eva Marina Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff at Eva Marina are the best! So helpful and friendly. They do everything they can to make your stay enjoyable. The breakfast they serve is amazing worth every penny. We will definitely be coming back to stay again."

Private paradise with heated pool Peace, comfort. Goddess and large garden

10/10 Excellent

"If you are wanting a 5 star hotel this is not the place for you however if you are wanting a very Cretian villa with a beautiful pool and garden and a host who goes the extra mile then this is the place. Vagelis (the owner) simply added to the holiday with his fresh fruits, honey and oil from his own olives. He was available for any help needed. Great place to stay and great people. We would gladly visit again."

Paralos The Maxine - Adults Only

8/10 Good

"Great sea views and easy 5 minute walk to Agia Galini beach. Room 212 was spacious, bed was comfortable, pool was beautiful and had ample sun-beds and shade, and the AC worked great. Improvements that would enhance the stay include figuring out and fixing the sewage smell in the room and fixing the moldy trim outside shower. Lacked basic amenities like hair conditioner, had a bottle of hand lotion in the shower instead of hair conditioner- which was really weird. When you leave the room, all electricity turns off which means the mini refrigerator and freezer turn off- you come back to melted ice and warm beer. There is no restaurant on site. They do have a snack bar at the pool open until 5 pm. They have buffet breakfast with a lot of hot and cold choices each morning. If you want real orange juice, cappuccino, or espresso there is an additional charge (most hotels include these options via self serve machines). In the evening they offer a buffet dinner. Bar is open til late but does not serve food or snacks. We really missed having a restaurant to order from. Good news is plenty of great beach bars and tavernas were short walk away along the beach."

Areti Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay, room was comfortable and clean, hotel was in a quiet and peaceful area. Pool was nice and the poolside bar was a bonus. Complimentary breakfast was great. Everything needed was close by. No complaints from me!"

Stella Luxury Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Great apartment. Clean room"

Galini Mare

10/10 Excellent

"We were welcomed by the helpful couple at reception and showed to our rooms early. The rooms where nice and clean with a comfortable bed. We had a coffee maker in the room which was really nice. The rooms are small but comfortable. The reception gave us some good suggestions where to go for dinner. Everything was close by and within walking distance We had a nice breakfast at the hotel too with many delicious choices.. I can highly recommend this property"
