Great location near the Heraklion airport and walking distance to public beaches, restaurants, supermarkets, and bakery. We stayed at the hotel for 3 weeks and used it as a base to discover the island of Crete. The views of the sea and the orientation of the building provide for beautiful viewing of sunrises and sunsets. The sight of the planes landing and taking off every few minutes at the Heraklion airport is a memorable experiance by itself.The pool is outstanding, the breakfast is homemade and exceptional. The premises are very clean and parking is ample by the hotel. Airline personnel are using the hotel as a layover between flights. Great wifi throughout the hotel. The staff are courteous, friendly, and provide customer oriented experience. We will definitely stay at the hotel again in future visits to the island.

About 6kms from city centre, no attractions nearby. Bus stop to go to Heraklion centre is opposite the property. Breakfast is provided, but no restaurant thereafter. There's only a small family run restaurant nearby for dinner. Front desk staff are not very helpful in planning local sightseeing, but they are very courteous in guiding and arranging taxis. Breakfast is good. Room is fairly spacious and clean. Close to the airport, needs only 10-15 minutes to reach.

Very easy check-in and welcoming staff! Great hosts in the morning and evening! And they would ask if you had explored their wonderful beautiful city and seen the sights! Awesome hotel stay! Great room with a view! Awesome pool. Breakfast buffet had different options every single day! Very close to the Taverna Kphtiko Kona, about a 2 min walk from the hotel. Close to the Market which opens at 6am. Very close to the airport! Great view from the balcony to the beach! 7 minute walk to the beach. Also close to the motorway! Anemos restaurant was nearby, about a 7 minute walk. And car rental location or dune buggys for rent also nearby! Totally awesome stay at this hotel.

This hotel has exceeded every expectation. It was the cheapest but the hotel was fabulous. It was super clean. The pool was crystal clear and the outdoors was beautifully landscaped and immaculate. There was even table tennis provided outside. The rooms also came with a hair dryer. Everything about our stay was spectacular. the staff was very helpful and friendly and changed my room to a different one with no issues. Deserves 10 stars

We booked this for an overnight due to closeness to airport but also due to pool. Unfortunately the pool was unclean and green with slime, there were several people all wanting to use the pool, however it wasn’t possible. Also no pool towels provided which is poor. Limited dining options in the area. It’s not hard to clean their pool which is the main attraction.

Staff very nice, architecture was something special, good pool and overall a nice place to stay. It’s a rather small community and the hotel is on a main artery which has dining options within a 5 to 7 minute walk. The hotel itself has a breakfast bar but doesn’t serve other meals. The beach nearby is nice, we went to the Cicada Beach Bar for refreshments and a wonderful beach day.
