Family-friendly accommodations offer spacious rooms with stunning sea views, perfect for unwinding after a long day. The location provides easy access to local attractions, making it a convenient base for exploration.
Food quality left much to be desired, often served cold and lacking variety—especially disappointing for a supposed all-inclusive experience. Cleanliness standards in the rooms need improvement. surfaces had sticky residues and dust. The pool area can be dangerously slippery, making it tricky for families with kids, and evening entertainment options were sparse, contributing to a rather dull atmosphere.

pleasant stay with a few minor hiccups
The hospitality from the staff created a warm and welcoming atmosphere during our stay. I truly appreciate how Dimitris, Ilias, and Thekla made us feel like family. The stunning sea view from our family room was breathtaking, complementing the enjoyable time spent by the pool, which was well-maintained and comfortable for my children.

We absolutely loved our stay at this cozy hotel, which is just steps away from a beautiful beach. The welcoming atmosphere made us feel right at home, and our family room with a sea view was fantastic for our teenagers. Enjoying the fun at Star Beach Water Park nearby added to our adventure.
My kids wished there were more activities available at the hotel for young teens.

Had a fantastic time with friends! We explored Heraklion Port and enjoyed a day at Star Beach Water Park. Evening entertainment with live music was a highlight. The pool area is great, though food options may be limited. Overall, friendly staff and clean space made for a chill vacation.
The only downside was the lack of Wi-Fi access in the rooms, which was a bit inconvenient for charging devices.

This place has a beautiful beach across the road and a clean, big pool. We enjoyed relaxing with the kids in the family room with a sea view. My favorite moment was the private dinner setup prepared by Chef Ilias, he made our stay lovely!

Wonderful Staff and Ocean Views
We absolutely loved the ocean views, and the friendliness of the staff truly enhanced our experience. Chef Ilias frequently checked in with guests to make sure everyone was pleased with their meals, especially during the delightful Cretan night. The accessibility to the beach with reserved sunbeds added to our relaxation. However, the food variety could definitely use some improvement.

The hotel had a great location near the beach and friendly staff, which made our experience enjoyable. The pool was lovely, but the food lacked variety and quality, prompting us to dine out. Room cleanliness could have been improved, but overall, it was a decent stay.

Family getaway with excellent hospitality
We felt like family during our stay. The staff, especially Ilias, came over to check on us daily, making sure we had everything we needed.
It wasn't exactly cheap, but considering the experience, it was acceptable.
