"Great hotel, staff really friendly. Short 2min walk to the seafront. "

"Once we found the property and settled in, it was the perfect beautiful and low-key way to begin our Greek vacation. We had plenty of room, the beds were super comfortable, and the location was close enough and far enough away from the in-town beach action.....it really felt like we had our own private slice of the island!"

"Very nice hotel. Breakfast was included! Location was convent for visiting the beach. Room was clean safe and quiet! Tastefully decorated. We had a nice sea view from our room!"

"The staff were very friendly. The hotel rooms were lovely. "

"This is a very nice property in a lovely town--very walkable. We enjoyed it very much."

"I had a lovely stay here and would come again. I will say that while the property is clean and the staff take care of it, it does need a little lick of paint here and there but overall it is a beautiful location and a true place to relax and recoup. I was disappointed that there wasn't yoga classes as posted, but I was able to book a private class with a teacher, who was great. Booked with their masseuse a few times as she was WONDERFUL (Rose if I remember rightly) Handy swimming pool right outside my room (salt). And a little general store on site which after realizing that Plakias is a 15min drive away, was good to have on hand. Scuba diving in the cove was gorgeous and there was a little spot you could jump straight into the ocean near the main pool. The cove is not the beach however, the walk to the beach is about 20 minutes and up some very steep stairs. The view is amazing, but I'd recommend wearing solid walking shoes as there is loose gravel/rocks and the drop to the ocean is sheer. The entertainment was mediocre to be honest, and the location would benefit from a karaoke night in my opinion. All-inclusive does not include all drinks, beer and wine only. But the food was decent enough to not bother going into the town except for a treat. Great nudist beach nearby in Plakias, with regular beach down the road. Lovely little town. "

"Rooms were cleaned daily. Staff were very polite. "

"The staff were very friendly and accommodating. However, the room was of an average Greek apartment standard. The large wardrobe housed 3 coat hangers (for two people).We purchased some, which isn't a big deal, but shows lack of thought. There was a very sharp bolt in the floor securing the french window , which would be very painful if stepped on.A colony of ants lived in the gap of the bath room door and regularly made huge columns of sorties to the kitchen area, which meant nothing could be left outside of the fridge. The electrical socket by the front door was very loose and I believe presented a fire risk. The kettle was erratic-probably about to give up the ghost. There was a big light that lit up the area outside the apartments at night, which was blinding and unnecessary. The apartment building next door (which was owned by the same people) piped irritating muzak all throughout the day. As usual to these low budget apartments, the shower was problematic. It was fitted way too close to the toilet roll dispenser (soaking the toilet tissue) and the curtain (which wrapped round one as you showered). It was also weirdly too close to the wall, so you had to lean into the fittings to get to the water.The fitting was loose and kept flopping against the wall. A large wide screen tv was situated on the dressing table instead of being wall mounted, so took up too much space. A great location marred by a lack a little TLC. "

"One of the loveliest hotels we've stayed in on Crete, and excellent value. Our room had a breathtaking seaview and we'd return just for this alone. But the host, Harris, was also very friendly and attentive, telling us how to navigate down to the beach and town. Air conditioning worked like a dream and the bed was comfy. All in all a brilliant experience, and as we are frequent visitors to Crete we will be back. "
