"The best time I had in Crete was my stay in Xristina's apartments because Xristrina and her family treated us like family. They were kind, professional, and very caring. The apartment is a gem, beautifully maintained right in front of the beach with plenty of places to dine and walk to. We loved Xristina's restaurant so much that we pretty much ate there every night! It's in a great location close to everything. It's like staying is a top notch mini private resort but very reasonably priced....

They are beyond accommodating regarding food restrictions and allergies and make modifications AND remember your restrictions. Staff will serve food and drinks at beach. We had a delicious welcome cake at arrival. The ONLY thing was the plunge pool the room has is not heated. I hope to come back!"

"Very well located hotel, staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was ok, could have had greater variety of breads, hot dishes and juices. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Only downside was that the aircon had been switched off all over the hotel so had to keep windows open which meant there was a lot of noise from the street. Two of the rooms had sinks outside the bathroom"

"An Absolutely Wonderful and Memorable Stay! The warmth, care, and exceptional hospitality of the staff made our stay truly unforgettable! I chose this beautiful property to celebrate a very special milestone with my friends, and I couldn’t have been more pleased with our decision. I was especially touched to learn that the entire hotel staff had held a meeting before our arrival to ensure that every guest in our group would be personally taken care of. That level of thoughtfulness and attention to detail speaks volumes about their dedication to hospitality. Even before arriving from New York, I had been corresponding with the team, and they were always incredibly responsive, accommodating, and prompt. Every little detail was thoughtfully planned and beautifully executed, allowing me to simply relax and enjoy my celebration. The property itself is absolutely beautiful, impeccably maintained, and a wonderful place to create lasting memories. But what truly sets this hotel apart is its people. Their genuine warmth, kindness, and willingness to go above and beyond made us feel so special and welcomed. We loved, loved, loved our stay! I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel and am so grateful we chose it for such an important celebration. Thank you to the entire team for making our experience so extraordinary!"

"This was our second visit to Atlantica Amalthia. Very nice hotel. Everywhere was very clean, our room was a good size (we had a room in the building on the beach side) with nice balcony. Nice bar and restaurant. Breakfast room was nice and good choice of food. Very well kept beach. All of the staff were first class. So friendly, polite and extremely helpful. Visited the spa and had two massages during my stay and both were very nice and relaxing. Definitely recommend. Reasonable price. Didn't use the pool as it got busy very quickly. Sunbeds were very close together and not positioned well that you could get the sun all day. Whilst I enjoy swimming in a pool, we chose to stay on the beach each day. Good location with plenty of restaurants nearby. Recommend Sebastien next door. Absolute gem of a hotel and would definitely recommend it."
