My stay at this resort was memorable. From the moment we arrived the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Their attentiveness and hospitality made our trip easy and seamless. The property was always kept clean. The architecture of this resort felt elegant, you can tell it was carefully designed. The breakfast buffet had a variety of options, and the convenience of being able to book cabs and excursions directly through the hotel made things stress free. The resort had a peaceful ambiance. Even in busier areas it felt calm, I felt relaxed during my whole stay. On our final day, my partner and I enjoyed a couples spa massage treatment it was worth every penny. The right way to end our trip. I genuinely loved everything about this resort and will definitely return. Highly recommend.

We had an amazing four days, the property is beautiful the staff are very sweet and helpful, the food is really good had so many varieties in the buffet. Our room had a problem with the AC and the staff offered a new upgraded room. On the other hand we didn’t feel like our rooms were properly cleaned during our stay. We had a half board in our reservation although we had to pay for water during dinner which felt weird. Other than that it was a perfect holiday

My second time visiting in less than a year! Absolutely love this hotel. The service is incomparable and the food is exquisite. Our favourite options were the traditional Cretan restaurant Elemes and the Seafood restaurant Bony Fish. The service and the cuisine were star-worthy in both. My advice? Take the staffs recommendations on dishes of the day. Lots to do in the hotel's complex such as shopping ( I spent too much money here!) and snorkelling in the sea. The spa stocks brands like Davines which thoroughly impressed me as it is a sustainable B-corp brand that I love. The most incredible sunrise and sunset views! Already dreaming of our next visit. My only minor comment is that I would have appreciated a later check out option. Currently late check out is only available until 12pm and I would have preferred to be able to spend a few extra hours in the room by our pool rather than waiting to leave.

It was a fantastic experience. The reason for the lower markings on some areas are: Our reservation was for 3 people (2 adults, 1 child) and we were only provided with accommodations for 2 (towels, bedding). We had a Loft, with a pullout couch for the child. The pullout did not have bedding (pillow, sheets, blanket). I called the reception multiple times (4) to have them send some to our room, and they were not delivered until late in the evening, after the 4th call. For the towels, I had to call reception at least once per day for the first 3 days, to have an extra towel provided so we all had a towel for showering. Cleanliness, overall we were very satisfied with the cleanliness of the room, however, one of the decorative throw pillows was very badly stained (looked like it could possibly be blood), we left it out and visible for housekeeping to replace it, but every time we returned, the pillow was still there with the stained side turned over so it was not visible again. There were also 2 occasions when the clean towels provided were stained, or not cleaned. They had brown colored stains and marks on them in some areas, which weren’t noticeable until the towel was unfolded. Overall the stay was very pleasant. It is a beautiful resort with much to offer. The staff were very friendly, and seemed to go above and beyond to provide an overall great experience. They even allowed us to check in 1 hour earlier.
