Insula Alba is mostly just really pretty.
My first experience from the Insula Alba was the reception. As I entered with my suitcases, the older of the receptionists rushed to me, panicky looking, and with voice raised let me know that I must leave my luggage outside. After asking for my and the wife's passports, she again, worried looking, told me I can't enter dinner 'like this'. I was wearing flip flops and a sleeveless shirt (like some summer tourist in Crete, go figure). It's okay to convey this information, but the way she approached me from the first moment was anything but welcoming. It was more like my presence was soiling her lobby. Other than that, service was good. The room is basic for the price, but spacious. There were very okward chairs in the living room, not comfy at all. Bed was decent. Bathroom and shower as well. Dinner had a very wide variety, but the overall quality and taste was below your average taverna on the street (admittedly a high standard to begin with in Greece). Bright spots were plenty of fresh vegetables, and excellent desserts. We didn't have a chance to try breakfast. The hotel is beautiful, especially the pool area. Overall this hotel is more than decent, but for the price I paid, I feel there were better in Crete.

resort was absolutely beautiful, absolutely can't fault the condition of the resort. Staff overall were absolutely lovely, my less than excellent review of the staff comes from my interactions with management. My partner came to management with a problem and they were hostile and unwilling to help us resolve the issue. Because of this I felt uncomfortable around some of the staff who saw this interaction and felt like I wasn't being heard by those who could help me. When checking out we requested a taxi to the airport for 8:30, the taxi didn't show up until 9:10 causing great distress but the hotel offered no compensation for this. I understand the hotel can't control the taxi driver but they provided the service of booking it. We ended up arriving at the airport much later than I would have liked. Again general staff and everyone who worked in the resort other than management were lovely and the resort is beautiful.
