"This is not Greece! As soon as we saw the hotel we left. Very commercialized, and nothing like Greece, if that’s what you want than you will love it but we were looking for something totally different."

"A lot of ants inside the room. We needed to pay for the air conditioning 8€ per day which is not in the description. We stayed 3 days and the day after we asked for towels change then they said they change towels every 2 days. After 2 days we asked for new towels then I had to hear that i got only 1 day left before check out and they don’t charge towels when we got only 1 day left. Really weird rules. "

"Great little apartments, nice quiet pool - no ball games allowed or kids activities make this great for that quiet holiday, the bar area is right next to the pool and fabulous views down to the coast and up to the mountains. Basic food served in the day, a little shop over the road for basics and walk down easily to the main town area for bars, shops, restaurants and the coast, or a walk up to the villages and old town (or taxi!). Staff are friendly, grounds are pretty, apartments are basic but...

"Had a fantastic stay at Psaras. This was our 2nd time & equally enjoyable. Comfy beds, constant hot water, great position for restaurants, bars etc & maid service regularly.
The only thing to mention is on our previous visit we could use the pool at the hotel in front. We were told we couldn’t do that any more as it’s an all inclusive hotel & it’s not free to use the pool/beds like it was 4 yrs ago. Otherwise all good "

"⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
We’ve just returned from a stay at Enorme Santanna Island Resort and overall had a lovely holiday, but there were a few things that stopped it from being a full 5-star experience.
Starting with the positives — the staff were absolutely amazing throughout our stay. Every member of staff we encountered was friendly, welcoming and always happy to help. The rooms and hotel grounds were spotless and very well maintained. The complex itself is huge, with plenty of space and beautiful sunset views in the evenings. There are three main pools plus additional private pools for selected rooms, which is a great touch.
The food overall was excellent. The buffet had a really good selection and the à la carte restaurants were mostly fantastic. The Greek restaurant was excellent and the Asian restaurant was exceptional — easily the highlight of the dining experience.
Unfortunately, the Italian à la carte restaurant was a big disappointment. The food was genuinely poor and tasted like frozen food that had simply been reheated, which felt out of place compared to the quality elsewhere.
There were also a couple of service issues. One day housekeeping completely missed our room, so I called reception twice to request fresh towels and for the bed to be made. They did eventually make the bed, but then forgot the towels. Not a huge issue, but something that shouldn’t really happen at this level of hotel.
The room amenities were also a little underwhelming. There’s no minibar as such"
"I view this as a base level 4 star, not a 5 star hotel as advertised. There a pieces that are up to that level (beach bar, welcome greeting) but others fall flat of expectations. It's certainly geared more towards families than couples and I would not endorse this if you don't have or want to hear children at all times. To eat anywhere on the property for dinner requires a reservation that cannot be made until you check in and then none are available once you do and you're left in a scramble. Areas of improvement: The layout of the bathroom was odd where the toilet was in the shower so you couldn't actually use the non-rainshower option or it would cover the toilet. It's also difficult to get in touch with staff unless you go to reception which is quite far for some accommodations or stay in your room. The TVs don't have any streaming apps or screen mirror capabilities. The headboard had a deep stain that was unpleasant.
As always, do your research and check if other options nearby could be a better value for you."
"Breakfast was great, very friendly staff. The only issue we ran into was when we misplaced our room key. They give you a fob card for power in your room but they also give you a key for your room. I feel like the key is unnecessary and they should just move to the fobs but besides that it was a great place. It is on a hill with a massive incline so if your room is in the 200s or 300s be prepared for a workout. Location is great as its outside of main Elounda but only a 20min walk ( or 5 min drive )"
"First would like to say I'd definitely come back to this hotel on my next holiday to Crete. The hotel is quite massive and lovely to walk around on a warm night. The room and the balcony was spotless. Didn't see much I didn't like about this hotel, many locations to sunbathe, swim and relax.
Some of the hotel staff are polite and helpful especially the bartenders on the 17.00 shift on blue bar and the bar by the Olympic size pool, it was easy to have a conversation with them and they gave good recommendations on where to go and what to see around the island.
The cleanup crew (as nice as they are) do not have patience, my do not disturb sign was on and countless times they knocked and walked in without waiting for an answer back which was an inconvenience cause we was either sleeping or getting changed.
The food at the main restaurants had a good selection, tastey and filling. I personally enjoyed lunch in the restaurant by blue bar and the snack bar. The kebab best I've ever tasted. Although some of the desserts taste like they had been out for quite while.
The hotel had a lot to offer in terms of entertainment every day was something new and was quite enjoyable.
There are shops, restaurants, bars and a bus stop as soon as you exit the hotel which is very convenient."
"We were only there for one night but were especially impressed with how clean the room/property was. We enjoyed the dinner buffet and the wait staff were friendly and attentive. Our room was very spacious and we had a chance to enjoy the balcony for our morning coffee. We would stay here again if in the area."
"Had a wonderful experience at Creta Maris. Would recommend booking the theme restaurants as soon as you arrive to ensure you get to try the cuisine outside of the buffet although the buffet was good as well. Sometimes hard to find chairs by the pools but can generally find beach chairs. The staff were very friendly, would recommend the Nami wine cellar wine tour, the staff running it were very informative of the islands history and wines were very tasty."
