Top Agios Nikolaos Hotel Reviews

Elounda Mare Relais & Chateaux Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The best resort you can ask for. Would recommend to anyone"

Domes Aulus Elounda Resort, Curio Collection by Hilton - All inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Loved, Loved, Loved, the staff here was absolutely amazing and so helpful. We spent part of our honeymoon here and it was just what we needed. We paid for all inclusive and chose a room that gave us access to their exclusive pool and restaurant at the top of the resort. Was definitely worth it as the food and presentation was great. The resort itself was beautiful, only downside is that it is on a steep hill so travel around resort can be tricky as you have to call the front desk to arrange a buggy to pick you up. Beach access and spa is great. The resort also helped us plan activities to do. I can’t explain enough how beautiful the views are here. Don’t hesitate and just book!"

InterContinental Crete by IHG

"This was the best hotel we have stayed at in a while and we have traveled a lot! Great location in Agios Nikoloas. Easy walks to everything. The spa was wonderful with a heated indoor pool and no extra charge. The staff was top notch all around! The breakfast was so wonderful and varied daily . If you are vegan there are numerous excellent options. The hotel room had a sofa and a balcony which was really nice. The outdoor pools are not heated. We were there the middle of October and still went swimming in the sea on a catamaran tour and it was worth it!"
