Perivolia Holidays

The hotel rooms are spacious and clean, staff are very friendly and accomodating, always working to please. Beach is down the street and has a public beach so we didnt need to rent chairs and umbrella. We rented a car and were able to park it at the hotel. Taxi to city center is 15 euros and there is also a bus that stops in front of hotel and costs 1.50 euro. Breakfast at the hotel is plentiful. For dinner there are also nearby restaurants with delicious food and reasonable pricing (Piato was a favorite). The corner shop has everything you might need and is not a rip off ( large bottle of water .70 cents). There also a Lidl within 5 minute walk. It was great to be just outside the city and avoid crowds but close enough to go to city center within 10 minnutes. We will stay here again when we return to Chania.

All staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making our stay very comfortable and enjoyable. The reception staff were particularly welcoming and efficient, ensuring a smooth check-in and check-out process. The restaurant offered a delicious and varied menu, with friendly and attentive service. We had a wonderful experience at this hotel, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great stay!

We loved our stay at the Blue Elephant. The property itself is lovely, with a lovely pool that has a gorgeous view, the rooms are spacious with everything you need. We had a shared plunge pool and loved it. We never saw our neighbours who we shared it with. The staff were also fantastic, with a special shout out Kostas and Emiliano at the pool restaurant and bar area. Penny at reception was also very helpful. Everyone we encountered was friendly and lovely. There were only a few things on the very small con list and that is while the breakfast buffet was lovely, it was exactly the same everyday, no variarion at all and the milk area was kept out in a fairly warmish area - if they'd put the milk in ice that would be great! But honestly, those were small things. The town of Almyrida is lovely, with everything in walking distance. Lots of great restaurants with friendly and lovely employees. Just note that if you have a mobility impairment there is a fairly steep hill from the main drag to the hotel. It would not be an easy walk to get up. We will definitely be back, it's one of the loveliest hotels we've stayed at.
