10/10 Excellent
"The staff and check in was exceptional. We received a very personal touch. The facility is amazing, the beach was also clean and very pleasant. The pictures don't do justice to how beautiful the facility is. The housecleaning and room service was also top notch. I'd recommend this place for anyone seeking a vacation on this part of Crete. The location is very close to Agios Nikolaos a very pleasant seaside town."

"Modern design on a beautiful point. 270 degrees of ocean views. The hotel was full, but the layout offered us a lot of personal space and privacy. The staff were wonderful. For me & every tourists nightmare - I lost my passport on the plane. The concierge, Mariana, knew how stressful this was and was on the phone to the airline, the airport, and the police for us right away. She found it for me. Just incredible. Thank you, and thanks to the airport staff and police for being well prepared for these events."

"Inconsistent staff experience, on first day staff was spontaneous to provide beach towels them following days needed to find people to get those towels. Breakfast a little bit too crowded and noisy with limited selection. Over priced dinner buffet option to avoid. Italian restaurant on premise had great food but again service was not at level"
