Top Elos Hotel Reviews

Atlantica Ocean Beach Resort - All inclusive

8/10 Good

"Only room for improvement was food. Likely fine for people from the UK. I was expecting much more local fare."

Caldera Creta Paradise

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful week. The pools were great and the children loved the waterpark. There are 3 different properties and you can use the different pools across all the properties. The buffet food was actually very good and there was good variety. Many options to keep the kids entertained. The only thing I didn’t like was the beach because it has lots of pebbles and my feet hurt when trying to walk on them, even inside the water. However we drove to other amazing beaches on the island so we didn’t case much about the beach at the hotel"

Asterion Suites & Spa - Designed for Adults

10/10 Excellent

"I actually don't know where to start..... The food was amazing, the staff incredible, the pool area and beach stunning. I've been lucky enough to travel to some amazing places, staying in amazing resorts. This place is up there with the very best of them. Thank you for an amazing trip, I will be back."

Myrion Beach Resort & Spa - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"It was an amazing experience at the resort. The food was excellent, and the staff were friendly, attentive, and welcoming. We especially enjoyed the beautiful pool area and beach. A few small improvements would make the experience even more consistent with a five-star hotel: adding extra towel or robe hooks in the shower area, installing a hygienic shower in the bathroom, and providing a capsule coffee machine in the room. The location is also very convenient—just a short taxi or bus ride from Platania, with many restaurants and shops. Overall, we had a wonderful stay!"

Galini Palace Resort Hotel - All Inclusive

8/10 Good

"We had a lovely, relaxing stay at the Galini Palace Resort Hotel. The overall atmosphere was calm and peaceful throughout, as the hotel is located in a quiet area away from the main tourist crowds. The Highlights: The absolute star of the hotel is the pool area - it is large, beautiful, crystal clear, and offers great view of the sea. The staff were also extremely friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. The food variety in the dining room was impressive, and while not every dish was to our personal taste, we always found plenty to enjoy. Areas for Improvement: There were a few minor issues that kept this from being a true 5-star experience: Pool Hours: The pool hours are quite limited (10:30 AM – 6:30 PM). We felt it would be much better if it opened earlier and stayed open later in the evening, especially during the long summer days. Room Amenities: For a 5-star hotel, we expected more luxury touches. For example there were no bathrobes, and it was disappointing to be charged an extra daily fee to use the room safe. Maintenance & Cleanliness: The showerhead in our room was completely clogged. Also, there was a strange, strong smell of cleaning products in the hallway outside our room, which wasn't very pleasant. Overall, a very enjoyable stay in a beautiful setting. With a little more attention to the small details and operating hours, it would be perfect."
