"Just a great relaxing experience. Room was clean, new and had a bar fridge & large a bathroom. Breakfast was provided and was delicious & changed daily. Pool & Bar area with cocktails, beers & snacks, lunch & dinners. Just delicious, try the sardines, large beans & pasta. l highly recommend. Nearby beaches, cafes are a 5min walk along the beach.

"Great family resort with multiple pools and activities. Good for younger kids and families who are mostly looking to spend their time at the hotel. A few decent shops and restaurants nearby and nice beaches a 10 minute walk. Taxis are expensive in the islands. €35 from airport to resort. 15-20 min"

Creteco Hotel & Suites

8/10 Good

"W"

Golden Bay Boutique Hotel & Bungalows

8/10 Good

"Great sea front location (beautiful sunset), walking distance to few restaurants, and with friendly staff. Rooms were spacious and clean and very functional, though not the most luxurious (likely 2-3 star). Included breakfast was also good. One thing I did not like is that the access to the hotel and vicinity is not that polished (area looks run down with an under developed feel, even though the hotel itself is decent and well maintained)."

Astir Beach Hotel

8/10 Good

"Bar closes at 11pm for all inclusive. Local drinks available for all inclusive. Branded drinks your need to pay euros."

Evdokia Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Cleam rooms, great staff and great food."

Magda Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Immaculate rooms , staff super friendly and accommodating Food : better buffet options "
