Stylish Boutique Hotel
This is a lovely, stylish boutique hotel with a great pool and restaurant. We only stayed one night during a business trip, but really would have loved to stay longer for a holiday.

Great stay, would recommend
Gorgeous, new hotel with amazing rooftop infinity pool. Has a cool outdoor cinema which rooms overlook. Made use of the hotel breakfast which was plentiful and delicious. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay

Great for relaxing holiday
This boutique resort is a lovely getaway right by the beach and very close to great restaurants and bars: it’s got two great swimming pools with pool bars for relaxing. The services provided seem to be scaled down due to the pandemic situation, but nevertheless the staff are very welcoming and helpful. Best feature, personally, is a plunge pool in each room - amazing extra! I’d definitely recommend the resort for a nice, quiet, resting holiday. Ps. If you rent a car, they offer free parking space in the basement.

Brand new and very clean. Loved everything about our stay. The only issue we had was finding this place. Google map sent us to a place a couple of streets over. The hotel should contact Google to have it corrected.

Not a 5* Hotel/Resortand no suitable for families
Decided to stay for a week instead of the initial two we booked. Poor services, poor choice for the breakfast menu, same menu every day, unsuited for kids. Staff is not friendly nor helpful. We booked a room with sea view ( Deluxe Suite, Private Pool, Sea View) and got a room wih parking lot view. The private pool was small and without any security measures for kids (sharp edges, no protection against slippery) . Also, you can not have any privacy in this pool or inside your room due to the fact that the bathroom is open and it has no doors. The hotel pool is small, the beach is not great. Hotel does not have direct exit to the beach (the pool that you can see on pictures in a public pool with no connection with the hotel).

Response from Giorgos Motakis on 27 Aug 2019
Dear madam, We are very grateful for taking the time to share your feedback with us and for choosing to stay at Atermono boutique resort. All kind of feedback is necessary for us to improve our selves in the future. As per your recent stay, we sincerely regret to learn that you didn’t receive the expectations you were looking for . While we are expressing our apologies, we would like to inform you, that after reading your review we must say that your remarks are correct and probably the main problem is that you have booked a wrong hotel for your holidays, since you were probably looking for a family 5 star resort and not a boutique hotel like us. Our hotel is not specialized for families with young kids, its a designed boutique hotel , with infinity pools specially designed for relaxation in a unique ambience . The room you have booked with private pool (all other rooms as well), itis clearly mentioned the size of the pool (12m2) ,also there are plenty of photos of the interior, bathroom, pools ,etc showing every kind of detail and views. We don’t understand your remarks concerning ,bathroom style, views and privacy ,since there are all detailed mentioned. We also regret particularly to learn that the service of our stuff was not up to your expectations and our staff's attitude was not good either. Your feedback will make us improve our service in the future. Again we deeply apologize if you didn't have the experience we are trying for all our guest. , We hope you had a good stay in our island. Kind regards Giorgos Motakis manager

Fantastic modern property in the perfect location. I would highly recommend staying here. If you have a room that looks into the hotel, they have a circular fire pit and a large open air cinema that you can enjoy films right from your balcony! Food and beverages are on the more expensive side compared to other local restaurants and bars, but it is to be expected in a 5 star resort.

Just stayed at the hotel which opened 2 weeks ago, the hotel wasn’t finished the gym and spa still needed completing when we left. Maids often didn’t get round to cleaning the rooms until 5-6 o’clock, hotel will need additional staff to keep its 5 stars. Hotel is beautiful where finished and think that it has the potential to be great 👍

MAGNIFIQUE!
Un des plus beaux hotels que j'ai fait, si ce n'est le meilleur! TOUT le personnel est souriant et au petit soins de leurs hotes. L'hotel est situé au calme, nombreux restaurants a coté a pied. Le petit dej est magnifique, a volonté et pour tous les gouts. Nous avions une chambre avec piscine privée, chambre spacieuse, vue sur mer. A refaire.

Hotel schön, Service verbesserungswürdig
Das Personal ist sehr freundlich. Leider ist die Qualität des Services sehr Personenabhänig. Bei der Zimmerreinigung z.B. manchmal war ein Abfallsack im Eimer drin, manchmal nicht. Die benutzten Tassen und Gläser wurden teilweise Tagelang nicht abgeräumt. Der Aschenbecher auf den Balkon nicht geleert etc. Das Frühstück starte um 7:30 und um 7:45 ist alles bereitgestellt (z.B. die Milch, alle Teller etc.) Auf den Kaffee wartet man z.T. so lange, dass er kommt, wenn man schon fast fertig ist mit dem Frühstück. Und dies auch, wenn nur 2, 3 Tische besetzt sind. Der Frischgepresste O-Saft reicht nicht für alle Gäste und um 10:29 wird das Licht am Buffet abgeschaltet. Da hätten wir uns mehr Servicegedanken von einem 5* Hotel erwartet. Die Lage des Hotels ist super, direkt am Strand und die Liegen vor dem Hotel sind sozusagen für die Hotelgäste reserviert und kostenlos.

Sejour au calme dans un cadre superbe
Tres bon sejour a Atermono. L'emplacement est ideal (bord de mer avec une tres belle plage, quelques commerces/restaurants accessibles a pied, 5mn en voiture de Rethymnon). Le design de l'hotel (avec ses 2 piscines) est tres reussi/moderne, les chambres confortables et silencieuses. Niveau restauration, le petit dejeuner pourrait cependant etre amelioré (notamment les confitures), et on regrette un peu l'absence de restaurant pour le diner, mais le room service permet de se faire livrer des petits plats, et on trouve de tres bons restaurants a coté. Note: le staff ne parle pas francais, mais ca n'etait pas un probleme pour nous :)

Top Hotel, sehr gemütlich, sauber und stilvoll!
Ein wunderschönes Hotel, super Lage (nicht weit zur Schnellstrasse von Ost nach West der Insel), in 500m gibt es einen umfänglichen Supermarkt und einige Restaurants/Bars. Das Hotel liegt direkt am Meer, keine Strasse dazwischen, der Strand ist direkt am Hotel 50m. Es gibt Liegestühle des Hotels reserviert für Gäste. Das Hotel ist sehr schön, ganz neu im 2019 erbaut, ist modern und schön eingerichtet. Sauberkeit ist top. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Frühstücks-Buffet ist ausgewogen und hat von allem etwas. Kaffee (Capuccino) hervorragend. Die Zimmer sind sehr schön, stylisch eingerichtet, aber nicht zu abgehoben. Es gibt eine Minibar, Safe, TV, etc. Kaffeemaschine (Nespresso) sollte auch noch da sein, fehlte in meinem Zimmer, was aber für mich nicht tragisch war, da der Kaffee am Frühstücks-Buffet hervorragend ist. Die Standard Superior Zimmmer sind gegen den Innenhof gerichtet (Balkon, Sitzplatz). Die Deluxe Zimmer (ohne Pool) sind im EG, Aussicht, seitlch zum Meer (jedoch kaum ersichtlich). Legt man Wert auf Aussicht und mehr Privatsphäre sind die Deluxe Suites mit privatem Pool zu empfehlen. Diese sind im 1.OG. Man hat Privatsphäre, niemand kann in das Zimmer von draussen schauen. Hat eine schöne, bessere Aussicht (seitlich) zum Meer. Und als Highlight einen eigenen kleinen Pool. Die Atermono Suite ist die Krönung (gibt es nur 1 Zimmer). Ist zu Vorderst und man hat durch ein rundes Fenster vom Bett aus direkt Ausblick auf das Meer!

lækkert hotel med nydelig morgenmad.
Nydelig hotel med beliggenhed på stranden. Vi beode på er dejligt værelse, med god plads og fed niveau indeling. Egen terasse og lille privat pool med morgensol. Superlækker morgenmad! Skønne udeområder men alt for høj musik ved fælles pool, og iskold vand i poolen. Havet var meget varmere

Très bien
Hôtel très Neuf jolie décoration literie parfaite cependant notre chambre n’a pas été faites ni nettoyée Le lendemain A revoir totalement le système d’eclairage impossible de séparer un éclairage pour pouvoir lire individuellement ...ou tout simplement plus reposant .. toute la chambre s’allume et s’éteint en un seul interrupteur très gênant !!! Petit déjeuner excellent Piscine et son bar magnifiques vue mer et musique de fond très agréable !!! Mais dommage que pour quelques goutes de pluie tout soit rangé ... même en demandant de pouvoir s’installer une fois l’orage passe ... hôtel un peu isolé ... les clients comme nous tournaient en rond ..!!! La plage Très agréable ... transats Et parasols ont le méritent d’être là ... mais sans aucun service ..de ce fait ni rangés ni nettoyés ???? Un grand merci à la jeune dame de la réception pour son accueil et sa disponibilité... que nous retrouvons le matin au petit dej toujours très aimable !!! Avec un peu plus d’effort... de petites mises au point .. l’hôtel sera parfait !!! Je le recommande !!!!

Hôtel agréable mais encore des points à améliorer
Un hôtel agréable! L’équipe est adorable et dévouée. Le Spa est vraiment formidable! La responsable et Johanna ont été exceptionnelles! La piscine et la vue sur la mer sont des plus très appréciables. Déjeuner et dîner corrects. Bonnes salades. En revanche Cocktails pas maîtrisés du tout. La déco est très agréable. La literie est tout à fait correcte. Notre chambre très sympa. Les points négatifs sont la qualité du petit-déjeuner Il est inqualifiable pour un 5 étoiles. Jus d’orange en poudre, pas de réels choix sans gluten malgré notre demande, juste des petits pains au goût très limite. Des produits bas de gamme. La salle de bain exigüe et absolument pas pratique. On ne sait pas pas où poser ses affaires et on a les pieds humides en permanence. Lorsque l’on se douche l’eau s’insinue sur le sol. Nous avons pu échanger avec une jeune femme réceptionniste adorable qui a entendu nos doléances. Nous souhaitons à cet hôtel charmant un bel avenir! En espérant que les équipes sauront améliorer les points négatifs. On ne peut pas qualifier cet hôtel de 5 étoiles.

Sehr schönes neues stylishes Hotel. Der Infinity Pool auf dem Dach ist sensationell. Hervorzuheben ist das außerordentlich nette Personal in allen Bereichen. Das Frühstück ist sehr lecker, wobei (Jammerm auf hohem Niveau) für ein Fünf Sterne Hotel die Auswahl größer sein könnte. Was wir uns noch gewünscht hätten, und auch das ist Jammern auf hohem Niveau, ist dass man die Rechnungen von Poolbar und Spa aufs Zimmer schreiben kann, um nicht immer Geld oder Karte mitnehmen zu müssen.

Eine einzige Enttäuschung: Unfertig, ungemütlich, unpersönlich, schlecht gemanagt. Die Einrichtung entspricht in keiner Weise der Darstellung auf den Fotos. Man hat sich offensichtlich ein schickes Einrichtungskonzept am Computer erstellen lassen, dieses aber nur ansatzweise umgesetzt. Wie sagte ein anderer Gast treffend: „It‘s all Fake“.
