We had a lovely stay at the hotel, our room/view was perfect with the pool. And the beach is behind the hotel. They where very friendly, but there was not much to do outside of the hotel. The food was good as well.

This place is perfect for a stay off the beaten path. There are a few good restaurants, beach bars, and even a small dance club within walking distance. The property itself has a private beach with push button ordering service. The photo is the private beach area, always had a seat. I can’t complain about anything! We really enjoyed a weekend here. It is 15€ to Heraklion town center. No reason to rent a car.

Could not recommend this place more! We will definitely be going back. The staff was phenomenal, when we arrived we were greeted by a concierge who took our bags inside/to our rooms and made us a mimosa while we filled out our check in details. We did the half board so we got a buffet breakfast and dinner each night that had so many options and were very delicious! The front desk also made us a reservation for the el la carte dinner which was also free. The staff didn’t hesitate when we asked them to book us a taxi to check out city centre as well as booking an early taxi to get us to the port the morning we checked out, also supplying us with a box breakfast to go. Highly recommend this place! Absolutely loved every minute of our stay!

Very nice adults only hotel! Particularly liked the beach pool continuation and the extremely friendly staff! Would benefit from an update in certain areas like bathroom fittings and plumbing, new towels as the ones provided were visibly very old, as well as more coffee options included as standard with breakfast. it’s the first hotel i have been that the only offer filter coffee and tea for breakfast-not even decaf! Any other option have to be paid which is very weird in Greece in 2024!

Impeccable visit and top notch

Incredible hotel and value. Service and food were top notch! All around great experience. Great water that varies from calm to some little waves so something for everyone. Beach service was incredible and special shout out to Marios! The food at Armonia was world class. Not much of a breakfast person but found myself indulging nonetheless so that should tell you something! Regular rooms are very clean with patio and room cleaning is world class! Look forward to seeing our friends again! Thanks Paralos!

Liked: Staff & service
Based on all the high reviews and “4 star” status, we were expecting this to be a much nicer hotel. Pros: - Nice beach view - convenient poolside service - friendly and helpful staff Cons: - crowded on the beach, can be difficult to find a chair during the day - the rooms have very poor soundproofing, and a lot of noise can come from the hallway at night - our AC was not working the first night, and we didn’t realize this until it was very late in the night - the electricity in the room doesn’t work unless you put your key card in the wall, and they only give you one key card. So if you plan on coming back to a cold room at the end of the day, think again! It takes over an hour to cool down even after our AC was fixed. What kind of “luxury” hotel does this?

Wir waren zu zweit als Paar hier und hatten die letzte Woche bevor. Das Hotel schließt vor dem Winter. Es war alles wirklich richtig gut und komfortabel. Die letzten Tage hat man gemerkt, dass das Buffet etwas nachlässt, da die Schließung Anstand. Ansonsten gab es nichts zu bemängeln.
