Not a great experience for the price.

For the high price, they cannot compete with other resorts in terms of quality. Seems a bit run down, old school style all inclusive resort. Customer service was terrible. Employees seem unhappy and burned out. The checkin process tries to be fancy, but the first think we heard was the security guard yelling at us not to bring our bags inside the hotel, like we had to leave them on the steps of the hotel by themselves. Pool staff behaves like kings, and are rudely talking to guests across the board. Unacceptable. Rooms were run down, cleanliness was fine. Railings are brittle/unsafe and flooring is not designed for rain, making it extremely slippery. Food was basic, mostly fried foods, little Cretan and Greek food. They promise ONE a la carte dining per weeks stay, but requires multiple days of prior reservation if you don’t just want a subset of the main buffet menu. Avoid the Italian buffet as it’s just pasta/pizza from the main buffet. The “all-you-can-drink” / all-inclusive drinks are subpar to anything I have experienced so far. Beverage a generally given out in tiny, not reusable, plastic-lined 0.15ml (5oz) cups. The quality of drinks tastes water down. Additionally there are time restrictions. All around not great. I guess the highlight was that can order 3 beers at a time to fill into your own glass to not run to the bar after each sip. Kids club was basic, the first day they went to the water park which was fun, after that it was just drawing/sitting around.

Great resort for families. The buffet dinner got a bit repetitive and many of the outside tables were under a roof, but no ceiling fans, so it was HOT. The directions to make reservations was confusing and our one reserved dinner at another site was a huge disappointment. I called the front desk to express my concerns. They said someone would call back but they never did.

We had a wonderful stay at Marine Palace, it was easily accessible and we had a 5 month old plus pram in tow, pool selection was great and the food was excellent, lovely choice and highlight was the BBQ by the Sea! Staff were all very helpful and bonus of a WhatsApp number to message if had any problems, the rooms and all outside areas were kept to a very high standard of cleanliness, very impressed. The village of Panormos was only a 7-8 minute walk away, very small but lovely village with bars, restaurants and a few gift shops. Would definitely return!!!

I can only speak about my room but it was not reflective of the Grecotel reputation. It was in old condition and looked like a room in a much less expensive establishment. The food was mostly mediocre. It is not fine dining at the restaurants at all. It’s just ok. For the money I give this place a 2.5. I would not rebook here because although we had a good time here I feel for the money I can choose better.

The Grecotel Marine Palace is a great place for a family holiday. It has great facilities for the children including a great aquapark. The resort is spread across a wide area The pools are great and well spread acorss to cater for all accomodations. The main restaurant served excellent food with a good variety and variation everyday day. There are three ala carte restaurant which we did not try as it was fully booked up for the days that we stayed.The resort is located about 1 hour drive from the two airports and gave us the option to explore the island in either direction. Most of all, the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. Overall, an excellent holiday and I would highly recommend it to my friends and family.
