Average facilities, many in bad state of repair. Good food in restaurant, although very repetitive if staying more than a few days. Restaurant and room staff were nice, animation staff energetic, but the front-desk staff were unhelpful, sometimes rude and did not tell us about many of the inclusions in our stay. Close to nice beach, but crowded in August... More

Kalimera! Many thanks for the review of our hotel. We're very sorry that you did not enjoy your holiday with us in every way. You write quite right that here on Crete it’s much livelier in August – which means in high season – as in May or October. We're also very sorry that you perceived our staff from the... More

This hotel is right on the beach so it has that going for it. All inclusive food was good and you can eat in the hotel restaurants that are not the buffet twice a week. The all inclusive bar pretty much only has soda, beer and wine so do not expect fancy drinks unless you are willing to pay for... More

“Kalimera” from Crete! Thank you very much for the review of our hotel. We are very happy, that you spent your holiday with us. In high season it can happen, as in many popular resort hotels, that the most popular sun beds are occupied quickly. However, there are always plenty of sun beds on the beach at your disposal. We...

Location is great – at the middle of Stalis, there are a lot of taverns and shops with souvenirs around hotel.
