Palaiochora Holidays

Room - beachfront - absolutely worth paying extra for this, beach is lovely and kept clean. Water clean, warm and can walk in approx 100ft into the sea and still touch sea floor. Perfect environment for families with young children. All staff were impeccably polite , attentive and aimed to please, from hotel reception, bar staff, housekeeping, restaurant staff Food in restaurant was excellent- superb range of foods on buffet, delicious desserts, always topping up fresh watermelon, honey due melon, pineapple, oranges, apples, peaches, bananas in abundance Food was very tasty , great selection of breads, cheeses. Entertainment was available on some of the nights , violin player, singer, saxophone player all were great Lovely range of shops within walking distance , and bus and taxi straight into Chania old town. Had a very relaxing time and will go back again!

All staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Facilities were very clean. It was great to have a plunge pool which was larger than we thought and it had a beautiful view of the mountains and water. Having a waterpark was a huge plus for our boys. We were pleasantly surprised at how nice the beach facilities were - if choosing all inclusive, you paid for nothing at the beach. There were beautiful covered beds, fruit, drinks, and Prosecco served to you as well as a wonderful beach side bar and restaurant as part of the package; you could also pay as you go and use all beach facilities. While we didn’t use it, there appeared to be plenty of room for chairs by the main pool, and there were always lounge chairs available by the waterslides. Overall, it seemed really well staffed for the number of guests and never felt crowded. There was a wide variety of food every night, always including high quality Greek food, as well as range of other food that made everyone in our family happy. The fruit trays they offer are phenomenal! It was great to be so central for short day trips to Lake Kournas, Chania and Rethymno. Highly recommended.

All the staff are very friendly. Resort felt very safe and the dining experience was great. We're vegetarians and we never left feeling hungry. Slot has to be booked for the steam room and sauna. Which is great, as you're not then sitting awkwardly with strangers. Loved all the personal touches.

The hotel is really nice. The food and drinks were good. Beach is right there and there are lits of pools to choose from. We have loved our holiday

This property was ok, there was nothing overly wrong with the property which is set up for brits wanting a British holiday abroad. Food options are very standard, with limited Greek food and mostly catered to British tastes. Having said that the days we did eat at the property there is plenty to choose from, just nothing really authentic. The Salad bar was very comprehensive and good though. For an all inclusive we arrived late evening and dinner stopped at 2200 and there was very limited food available a few snacks and a sandwich but nothing for a vegetarian. Staff weren’t accommodating with locating any nearby options for dinner. The hotel is really set up as a place to stay all day with nothing nearby worth seeing, however we had a car and could explore the island from this location and parking was easy at the hotel. The room was ok, we paid for a sea view balcony and could just about see some of the sea, a more accurate description would be partial sea view, however was kept clean and was serviced daily.
