Minoa Palace Resort

10/10 Excellent

"This is a nice resort for summer holidays. It is well preserved, but most of credits should go to the staff. They are all local, super friendly, exemplary of Cretan hospitality."

Atlantica Kalliston Resort - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"A fabulous resort in Crete, positioned on a beautiful bay west of Chania. Three fabulous pools are complemented by a peaceful beach perfect for a dip. Our room was beautifully presented with a large balcony which got the sun all afternoon. The staff were friendly and always helpful - nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was the buffet of dreams, we always ate early and there was always lots to choose from."

Atlantica Ocean Beach Resort - All inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was special from the moment we arrived, 5 mins before the lunch buffet closed. We were invited to leave our luggage, enjoy the food and check in after. Once refreshed we were introduced to Katerina, a lovely Scottish lady who lives in Crete and has all the information you need to make the most of the hotel and this magical island. We were lucky to be given upgrades to ground floor suites (515 and 517) and they were superb, spacious and extra touches like towel animals and complimentary minibar made our stay (for a family wedding) very special indeed. The hotel is perfect for families and never felt crowded. There were plenty of sunbeds and its selection of pools kept all ages happy. We thought the food was very good for a hotel of this size, particularly breakfast and the lovely salad bar. The à la carte Greek restaurant is located on the waters edge and is excellent though we were less impresssd by the Asian restaurant. Chania is a beautiful Venetian town with a huge selection of restaurants and narrow streets to wander through. It’s a shame the hotel is just a little too far out to make frequent visits practical. The bus leaves from the stop outside the hotel (once an hour in our experience), takes 40 mins and costs €2.80 per adult each way. A taxi takes 20 mins and costs €30 each way or €50 for a larger minivan for our party of 4 adults and a baby. For a relaxing hotel-based family holiday this hotel is hard to beat, I’d love to return!"

Maleme Mare Beach Resort Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel itself is immaculately maintained, with beautiful, well-kept grounds that create a lovely first impression. Housekeeping was excellent throughout our stay, and our room was cleaned to a high standard every day. The majority of guests appeared to be over 60, along with a few couples travelling with very young children, mainly from Eastern Europe. There were very few UK visitors during our stay. I travelled with my two teenagers (17 and 18) during the May half-term holiday, and they were a little disappointed that there was no one in their age group to socialise with. If you’re interested in boating or water sports, you’ll likely find plenty to enjoy. However, as my teens are non-swimmers and not particularly interested in water-based activities, we found there was less to do on-site. That said, the hotel provided information on local excursions and activities, which proved invaluable. We particularly enjoyed Pista Go Karting, which had excellent facilities and high-quality karts. We also took a Segway tour of Chania, which was both fun and informative from a historical perspective. One of my teenagers even went paragliding and was told it was the first time a hotel guest had ever requested it! Given the hotel’s typical clientele, that wasn’t entirely surprising. Most of the staff were warm, welcoming, and helpful. Special mention must go to Stavros and Elena, who were an absolute mine of information and went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed"
