Mavrikiano Hotels from S$76

"Staff was wonderful. Very friendly and attentive. The amenities are great too. Just had concerns about the quality of the room."

"Clean, Friendly and helpful staff in every facility the hotel offers! Plenty of space, sunbeds, seating and so many pools never felt crowded even with 2000+ guests staying. Entertainment is on offer every day but with bar options you can easily avoid if you wanted to do so! Family friendly but caters to adults to. Couldnt fault restraunts, even with dietry requirements they were happy to accomodate and bring allergen friendly meals to your table. The late arrivals buffet at 11pm is a fab option when you arrive at the end of dinner and there is an early breakfast for those leaving early to. Feels like everything has been thought about. It is an open hotel (gated with a security guard at the entrance) but the corridoors are open to outside so a few walls needed small bits of maintenance and as early in the season some renovation still happening but the hotel left us a note explaining and didnt interfere with our stay at all! Waiters and Bar staff so friendly and didnt not have a single issue. Very happy and will return. As others have said the hill to and from the hotel to the main roads by foot is a little steep but we found it plenty manageable wearing trainers. Bus stop into Heraklion right outside or you can walk to the town centre in 30 mins. "

"A beautiful premium resort, which is set in sunning location."

"Perfect. "

"Everyone was very friendly. The rooms were clean and cleaned regularly, highly recommended."

"Food was amazing. Layout of resort terrible. Have to cross a road to get to the pool , beware with children. Wasn’t clear from initial advert some areas were adult only areas and children areas were crowded and messy "

"This is such a brilliant hotel for young families. It’s a really beautiful place with some lovely restaurants, bars & some cute additions like the gelateria & the little on-site kafenio. The staff are brilliant with kids and they’ve thought of everything you need. Malia isn’t the prettiest area, but parts of the Old Town are charming with some lovely, great value restaurants. My only criticism of this hotel how expensive the restaurant are. We chose not to go half board or all-included but I wish we had – I think it would’ve been much better value overall!"

"Stayed at NIKO for a long weekend in mid October - we had the BEST weather (sunny and warm but not too hot) and really enjoyed our time there. The views are just stunning (definitely recommend sea-view rooms). Great service and attention to detail. Breakfast buffet is excellent and all hotel staff from reception to bar/restaurant are incredibly nice and helpful. Thanks in particular to Manos, the night receptionist for being so helpful and welcoming when I arrived so early in the morning!"

"Excellent place. Amazing food (actually too good). Nice staff. Only downer is a 100 euro "climate crisis tax" slapped on your bill at the end. If you're going to obligatorily add 100 euros to a bill. You should say this at the time of booking. When do we draw the line on this? A "water crisis tax" of 20,000 euros slapped on a check out bill? I realise it's not all their fault. But more could be done."
