"This all-inclusive hotel gave you as much food ice cream beer and wine as you could eat and drink. Our room has a view of the ocean and the pool and the small balcony it was terrific. Lots of families from different countries many children all having fun. The odd thing about the hotel is that you have to pay extra for the safety deposit key for air-conditioning wi-Fi in your rooms and shampoo. But it was a minimal charge and not very important overall. We went to the waterpark which was...

"Evina is an apartment hotel, with a number of two story buildings around a square. The compound was supposed to have a pool and a small store, but these looked to have been closed for some time. There is also no restaurant on premises, so we were informed that we would have to go to the hotel down the street (owned by the same owners) for breakfast, and that we could also use the pool there. That pool isn't suitable for small children, as it is too deep, even at the deep end, and when we were...

Creteco Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"This a beautiful hotel right at the Mediterranean Sea. The prices are very good and the staff are friendly. Breakfast and WiFi is included. The rooms are spacious and clean. Wish we would have been able to stay more than one night. We highly recommend this hotel."

Gouves Water Park Holiday Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Only wish we had better weather but the place was amazing"

Niriides Palace

10/10 Excellent

"Very beautiful and modern property with a nice seaside view. Plenty of parking. Reception has limited hours but were responsive over WhatsApp when not on site. Excellent value for your money and I would definitely stay again."

Saint George Gournes Bay

10/10 Excellent

"It was our first time in Crete Greece and not realizing how big the island is ( biggest island in Greece) we picked Saint George Gournes Bay. It is a really nice, clean and almost brand new hotel looking over a beautiful sea Our room was spacious and very well designed. Bathroom was big and we had a balcony looking over the courtyard and some sea view. The staff is friendly and extremely professional.. Alex welcomed us upon arrival went over all of the necessary information with us. Breakfast was great with plenty of choices to pick from. My favorites were watermelon and Greek pastries.. of course not to forget yogurt !! One thing I highly recommend is to rent a car from the airport if you want to explore this beautiful island. Various locations in the island offers something unique.. there are some restaurants and mini markets however you need to walk minimum 20-25 minutes to get there. plus this part of Crete is new so some of the streets are not really that well lite ,, we didn’t get the rental car first 3 days after walking 10-15k steps a day to get bread and water and some snacks. We decided to get a car. Also do not use OK mobility not reliable .. Back to the hotel you have everything you need if you want to stay by the pool Beach is about 5-6 minutes away by walking and it is 10 euro a day for 2 chairs and umbrella. The sea in front of the hotel is very rocky so swimming is not possible. We went to various beaches in the island to explore This side of the island i"

Destino Luxury Villas Gournes

10/10 Excellent

"We had an absolutely fantastic stay and couldn't have asked for a better experience. The villa was beautiful, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a perfect vacation. A very special thank you to Eleni for her incredible hospitality. She was always responsive, kind, and genuinely cared about making our stay as enjoyable as possible. Her warmth and willingness to help with anything we needed truly made the difference. Highly recommended—we would love to come back!"

Aelius Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful welcome from wonderful staff. Nothing feels like too much trouble. The standard room was basic but was perfectly sufficient for our needs and cleaned every day. The hotel has a boutique style with 2 nice outdoor pools and one indoor, next to the small but sufficiently equipped gym. Unfortunately we did not have time to try out the spa treatments but the staff were also very nice in there. We were half-board and found the food to be excellent - lots of choice, very fresh and again, wonderful staff. I travelled with my teenage daughter and we were glad to see a variety of different people and age groups at the hotel, couples, groups and families. The location is also very good. It is in a quiet area within walking distance (20 mins) of the beach, some shops, tavernas and bars. There are bus stops close by to take you to busier areas such as Heraklion and Hersonissos, which we used frequently. The hotel also facilitates car rental (for the brave) as well as airport transfers, which we used on arrival and were very happy with. The one and only criticism is reserving sunbeds with towels. The hotel states that they do not allow it but it happened daily and no one acted upon it. It meant that we spent very little of our time in the hotel using their facilities. I think if you have a policy, you should stick to it. It was very frustrating to see reserved beds left for many hours unoccupied."

Astir Beach Hotel

8/10 Good

"Bar closes at 11pm for all inclusive. Local drinks available for all inclusive. Branded drinks your need to pay euros."

Evdokia Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Cleam rooms, great staff and great food."
