"We absolutely loved our stay at Youphoria Villas in Kissamos, Crete! It lived up to and exceeded our expectations. We stayed in Harmony Villa and the view was absolutely stunning. The location and orientation on the hill felt very private. It was spotless both inside and out with well kept gorgeous gardens. The inside was beautiful and modern but warm. The outside area and infinity pool with incredible views of the water and mountain landscape was the best part. We could’ve lived outside from...

"Excellent accueil. Nous avons été surclassés et avons eu l'agréable surprise de découvrir un frigo rempli de victuailles pour agrémenter nos petit déjeuners (presque plus nécessaire de faire des courses !). Le logement était parfait : très propre et confortable, extrêmement bien équipé avec un bel espace extérieur. Facilité de stationnement devant le logement"

"The hotel view was lovely and the sound of the waves crashing up from the patio was nice but this place feels more like a one star to me. There was zero wifi even though they claimed there was and the AC stopped working around 1230am. We woke up boiling hot and suffered until we left at 8am. I enjoyed the pool and the location but sadly would not be back."

"Quite unique and interesting villa in a quaint little village worth the drive but the grounds around the villa are not looked after at all, the pond with goldfish in it was green and not working, the other pond was even worse. Very limited kitchen facilities, clothes washer and dishwasher smelled moldy, beds and pillows were clean and comfortable.
The Dog next door barked a lot all hours of the day and night. The deck boards on the 3rd floor balcony were not attached and moved around when you...

"Nette accomodatie, met klein keukenblokje, aan een drukke weg, in een buitenwijk van Kolymbari gelegen. Zwembad aanwezig, geen ontbijt. Ca. 10 min rijden naar het strand en het centrum van Kolymbari. Aquapark in de buurt. Enkele horecazaken op wandelafstand."

"We had a great stay here - house was beautiful and well equipped and the remoteness and private pool were great for a relaxing stay in Crete. While you are about 20 mins outside of Chania it served as a good base for all of the western beaches and attractions while still close enough to Chania for dinners and exploring. On top of that Erato was super hospitable and responsive to our needs - highly recommended!"

"Lovely hotel on the sea front with two great pools. It’s a little far out from Chania but we used the local bus service to go to Chania and platanias which had a lot more going on. We enjoyed our stay which was good for a four night break. Rooms are immaculate "

Domes Zeen Chania, a Luxury Collection Resort, Crete
10/10 Excellent
"The only criticism I have is that the light switches are not located very well by the bedside.
Otherwise really spacious rooms and great staff. Beach was lovely although you should wear some water shoes as there are pebbles before you get onto the sandier bit if the seabed and they are incredibly hot!"
"We had an amazing time at this wonderful resort! Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Room was spacious, clean and in top condition. The pool areas were lovely and water temperature in pools was perfect, cool but not too cold. It was difficult some days to get a free sun lounger, however they had several Bali beds for €19 which included 2 waters and 2 other soft drinks so we thought was reasonable. There are several restaurants on site, we loved Galazio restaurant . I can honestly say their steaks were amongst the best we ever had. The location is perfect, quiet surroundings with a 5 minute walk to the Strip, where there were several bars, shops and restaurants. This hotel is excellent for families with young or older children/teenagers, young adults and couples also . We will definitely go again and recommend it highly!"
"The hotel exceeded our expectations.
Great location on the harbour.
Facilities, rooms, cleanliness and breakfast were all spot on.
Staff were all exceptional.
Would definitely recommend,"
"Enjoyed are stay at the Atlantica. Location is perfect for access to the main highway that goes to all the tourist attractions. Local restaurants within walking distance of the resort. There is no parking garage at the resort only a small parking lot (10 cars max). They have a valet to park your rental car if their parking lot is full."
"This hotel was great, amazing views and the staff were lovely! The glasses in the room were not cleaned properly nor were they replaced. Great location for relaxed family holiday, just a short drive away from chania town"
