"Generally a positive review especially the staff who were excellent. Family friendly with food surprisingly good for an all inclusive, a notch down from restaurant quality but good value for the overall price. Facilities otherwise excellent which are clearly geared for children with the exception of the ‘quiet pool’ (one of four pools).
Negatives as follows:
Bar area poor, no adult vibe whatsoever with simple tables and hard chairs located next to the children’s play area which tends to be...

"The rooms were lovely and clean. They were basic compared with the rest of the hotel, they could have done with some more storage or drawers.
Food was good, entertainment was great, the children’s pool was a little small but done the job and there was always sun beds. I’d happily go back and I never usually say that"

"Cannot say enough nice things about the facilities and the staff at Numo Ierapetra. Every detail was thought of and executed perfectly, from complimentary massages to helping my partner plan his proposal! Numo Ierapetra will forever have a special place in our hearts as the place we got engaged.
The 2 pools and beach were well maintained and the poolside music was relaxing and matched the vibe perfectly. The food was really good for a buffet and the a la carte menu for lunch was delicious. They...

"The room we had was big, with a very comfortable bed and a cute little balcony. It was very clean.
The staff, food and site were amazing. Beautiful resort. Nothing was too much trouble and they even offered us food and drink when we arrived at 2am."

"It's a great hotel for families, offering excellent facilities and amenities, good food, comfortable rooms, and easy access to several beautiful beaches.
The only downside was that complimentary drinking water wasn't provided. Having to purchase bottled water separately was disappointing and felt out of place for an all-inclusive hotel. Other than that, we had a very enjoyable stay."

"As a family traveling with our child and staying in many beautiful five-star hotels around the world, we can honestly say that this hotel has everything you could ask for. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, the food and cocktails are delicious, and every member of the staff very friendly and kind.
What impressed us the most is that the all-inclusive experience is clearly created with genuine care rather than as an afterthought. There is an incredible variety of food and drinks, ensuring...

"I enjoyed my vacation at Lyda Club Hotel. The room was so clean. The sheets and towels were changed every day. The food which was buffet style was pretty good. I liked the snack bar where they had barbecue almost every evening. Sometimes they had pasta. Overall, it was good and convenient. The staff is nice and friendly. I recommend it. "

"Plenty of helpful and friendly staff. The room was cleaned to a high standard and well stocked and organised. The hair dryer and steamer were high quality.
The pool area is beautifully decorated. Loungers are limited and fully taken by 1130. The DJ and saxophone artists were excellent.
Breakfast buffet has good selection and was fresh and good quality. Coffee machine rather than espresso machine with barista but acceptable.
The Al a carte restaurant was disappointing. The service was fine but the food was very basic and Salty."
Aquila Elounda Village Resort, Suites & Spa - Adults Only
10/10 Excellent
"It was very beautiful. The staff were wonderful and respectful. Location is great especially if you have a renter car. We were 10 minutes from lovely waterfront restaurants and the center of town. It is a quiet town. It’s lighted up at night time. We will definitely be back."
"Fantastic stay, lovely staff, great breakfast buffet, great location and easy walk in to town or a quick cab. Very relaxing stay in beautiful grounds. Views from our room across the bay were amazing. Will definitely return."
"One of the best resorts in Crete. The location and private beach are absolutely stunning. The resort offers excellent facilities, and there’s also plenty to explore in the surrounding area. This was my second stay at Daios Cove, and once again, it didn’t disappoint. I already can’t wait to go back!"
"Just had a 7 night stay with my husband and children- 16,14,11. The hotel was clean and tidy, the staff were helpful and friendly and couldn’t do enough to help. My daughter has a wheat and dairy intolerance and they were happy to let us use things we brought with us as well as buying milk and making a cake that she was able to have. The pool was big enough for them to play and have fun but not too busy like some bigger hotels. We are looking to come back next year."
"The staff is outstanding. Everybody is nice and you feel a wish to « go the extra mile ». You want something they don’t have, the find a way. Absolutely no waiting time with the buggies as the staff are so numerous.
We had such a lovely time. The resort is indeed kid friendly however the « adult zones » create a bit of a weird feeling and there are not a lot of animation like some resort. You don’t go there for the animation, you go there for the extreme serenity provided by the beauty of the place.
Tips: ask for a buggy tour around the hotel. You should see everything, views are outstanding!"
"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel and would highly recommend it. We were delighted to be upgraded to a sea-view bungalow, which was absolutely amazing. The room was spacious, beautifully presented, and the view was simply breathtaking.
The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help, making our stay even more enjoyable. The food was excellent throughout our visit, with plenty of delicious options to choose from.
Overall, everything exceeded our expectations. The only minor downsides were that the beach area was quite small and there wasn’t any evening entertainment at the hotel. However, these were only small points and did not take away from what was an exceptional holiday.
We would definitely return and would happily recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing stay with outstanding service and beautiful surroundings."
