Wonderful location on the beach - away from the main strip but only a few minutes walk away. Staff were amazing and so helpful. Great room amazing view. Small hotel great service - if you’re looking for a little more luxury and calm surroundings this is the hotel. Had a great stay and was very sad to leave. Thank you

Lovely relaxed place, on the beach.
A lovely, intimate hotel, tucked down a quiet road, but just a short walk to the many bars and restaurants of the resort centre. Located right on the beach, a perfect location. Despite visiting towards the end of the season, staff were friendly, helpful and ready with a smile. All together a great place, in a really great location where it was very easy to relax, escape and enjoy the wonders of Crete. Highly recommended.

Wonderful resort
The staff was amazing and very attentive when we needed assistance. The room was large with a large balcony to enjoy. Pool was very clean along with the rest of the resort. Our only negative comment was that the water at the beach was very foggy and not clear like some of the other areas. Great food and wine!!

Highly recommend this hotel. Amazing breakfast, friendly and helpful staff, small pool area with a great pool bar and service at the beach. Quiet location, but still only one road down from the Main Street with lots of restaurants, bars and tourist shops. Simple rooms, but clean. Only downside is hard beds.

Die Lage des Hotels ist unschlagbar. Direkt beim Meer und nicht weit Weg von der belebten Hauptstraße, von der man aber nichts hört. Auf die Sauberkeit in den Zimmern wird nicht so sehr geachtet. Preise sind für Getränke sehr hoch. Frühstück ist a la carte.

Fantastisk fint beliggenhet på stranda. Hotellet har fin utendørs restaurant med veldig god frokost. Man ser ut over bassengområdet , grønne plener og stranda og havet. Rolig fint på en endevei så ingen trafikk støy. Godt med solsenger både rundt bassenget og ved stranda. Hyggelig personell som gjorde alt for at vi skulle trives . Kommer gjerne igjen. Passer til voksen ferie.

Koselig lite stand hotell
Fint lite hotell liggende direkte på standen. Hyggelig og hjelpsom betjening. Stort pluss var at det var mulig å få solsenger nesten når som helt på dagen. Selv om gi gikk ut kl 10 eller om vi hadde vært borte fant vi alltid en ledig solseng. Studio-rommene er ikke så store, men det er nok plass til å bevege seg og pakke ut kofferten. God mat på restauranten, spiste der 5 av 7 dager. Gode smoothie i baren. Eneste negative var at sengene var harde, men fikk beskjed i resepsjonen når jeg nevnte det da vi sjekket ut at de kunne ordnet ekstra madrass om man syntes sengene var harde så tips til andre som synes det.

Behagelig beliggenhet med fantastisk service
Har tidligere bodd på flere hotell i platanias området og dette er ett hotell jeg gjerne vil reise tilbake til. Veldig serviceinnstilte ansatte som følger med uten å være påtrengende. Ved ankomst fikk vi god informasjon om hotellet og tilbud om en forfriskende lemonade. Solsengen på stranden er gratis for hotellets gjester, så lenge vi handlet for 8 euro i baren, men de ansatte fortalte oss at de ikke sjekket om vi handlet i baren. Det var store gode leiligheter (vi hadde 1 soverom, stue, bad og 2 terrasser/uteplasser) Noe som trekker litt ned på totalen er at de ikke skiftet sengetøyet på soverommet den uken vi bodde på hotellet. Ellers var renholdet bra. Selve hotellet ligger rett med sjøen og kort avstand til hovedgaten, men det er stille og rolig ved hotellet

29.5-5.6 2016.
Besökte hotellet 29.5-5.6 2016. Hotellet var bra och jag hade bokat en studio (fick den bästa studion på andra våningen, med bra sidoutsikt till havet, rum nummer 127). Rummet var ok, rent och hade allt man behövde, men en aning trångt (svårt att få upp kylskåpsdörren eftersom den var vänd åt fel håll och tog i stolarna som fanns nära). Hårtorken är dålig, har man behov av att torka sitt hår så är det nog bäst att man tar egen med sig (jag köpte en för 27€ i butiken nära). De anställda på hotellet var mycket vänliga och i receptionen finns också en dam från Finland. Solstolar finns vid poolen och vid stranden så det var trevligt att man kunde välja. Kan varmt rekomendera hotellet.

Unsere Erwartungen wurden total übertroffen!
Die Zimmer sind groß und zweckmäßig und sauber !! - die Betten (sogar das 3.Zustellbett/Sofa) sind bequem. Das Badezimmer ist klein, aber OK - das Wasser in der Dusche läuft stark (kein warmes Rinnsal wie man es in manchen Hotels schon erlebt hat). Die Balkone (1.Stock) sind intim und uneinsichtig. Die Anlage ist super ruhig und man kann (so wie wir das gerne haben) die ganze Nacht bei offenem Fenster schlafen, ohne gestört zu werden Pool ist ausreichend groß und nicht überlaufen. Es gibt zwar nur ca. 20 Liegebetten und 10 Sonnenschirme, aber die sind superbequem und edel. Sollte man kein Bett bekommen weicht man einfach auf den Strand aus, der ein paar Schritte weiter ist. (Da sind die Liegen aber preismäßig nicht inkludiert). Der Strand ist sauber (Kiesel/Sand) das Wasser traumhaft klar. Es gibt 2 Jet-Skis zu Mieten, aber sonst sind uns keine Aktivitäten aufgefallen (aber dafür auch keine nervige Animation) Im Apartment gibt es eine kleine Küche für Leute, die gerne selber Frühstück machen oder kochen. Wir sind im Urlaub faul und waren jeden Tag bei Nicos (Poolbar direkt neben dem Pool) frühstücken. Die Anlage liegt ein paar Meter abseits der Hauptstraße (2 Min. Fußweg) und man befindest sich sofort am "Square" - unzählige Restaurant und Bars - Geschäfte zum Abwinken (Achtung! pro Koffer hatten wir 5kg Übergepäck beim Rückflug ;-) Alles in allem ein toller Aufenthalt - vielen Dank an Claudia und Eleni :-)
