"The reviews were spot-on. We throughly enjoyed our stay as it was convenient to restaurants, bars, shopping, local landmarks and of course the beach! The staff couldn’t have been nicer! And the breakfasts were outstanding! Super nice pool too! You’ll be glad you picked this place!"
"Extremely helpful staff. Breakfast very good. No other food available. Clean, modern well equipped facilities. Area has lots of construction work in progress."
"This is an excellent hotel located within walking distance of city center. We had a party of three, so we received a two room suite, which was excellent. The breakfast was great - had plenty of choices. The suite had a balcony which was a nice place to relax in the morning or evening. Staff was very helpful and courteous."
"Great location right on the front supermarkets nearby and dozens of shops and restaurants lift to all floors but quite a few steps to get to reception "
"Beautiful room, nice location, and the host was very nice, and helpful, giving us recommendations of things to visit both in and out of the city 10/10"
"Great place to stay! The owner and the staff were very kind and accommodating. The room was cool with a beach view and a pool. And the restaurant (same owner) was excellent! I recommend for a stay in Crete! "

"We've stayed here twice now and have had a lovely time on both occasions. It's handy for the town but also quiet enough with lovely facilities. Can't recommend it enough. "
A verified traveller stayed at Macaris Suites and SPA
"I would not rate this property 4 stars. The ‘all inclusive’ was very limited. The dining area is very small with only a few choices at meal times. The walk to the beach was unpleasant. The hotel is on a noisy main road. I think the pictures are not a realistic reflection of how the hotel looks"
"The hotel is beautiful, public spaces are not modern but very well kept, outdoor areas are beautiful with plenty of open space for the kids to run around. We had 2 classic double rooms and one 2BR Mythika suite, the classic rooms were OK, decent size, in good condition but could use some refreshing. The Mythika suite was amazing, spacious, renovated, cleaned a few times through the day and included tasty goodies (fruits, wine, etc). Mythika guests receive private beach seating, benefits at restaurants (which we didn't use as are our party were not entitled) and free late check-out up to 6PM! (which was fantastic as our flight was late). Beach and pools are very cozy, there's a shortage of sunbeds in the big pool but we managed.
Parts we liked less: The water park, it's in all the hotel pictures on Expedia, and the hotel's FB an IG pages advertised the new park set to open in the beginning of the season. Unfortunately the park wasn't ready, it's set to open soon and we weren't offered an alternative. Other points: Hotel has lots of stairs, there are some elevators but they are small and slow. AC in the rooms works only in the afternoons, problematic in hot days and during the night (hotel could only offer a rattily noisy fan as a solution). Apart from the beautiful kids club we found the animation schedule a bit lacking. And finally, some of the staff are not as friendly as you'd expect for a 5* resort, we found ourselves having to "nudge" some of them into helping at times."
A verified traveller stayed at Aquila Rithymna Beach
"Vacation was great. The hotel is well maintained and the service is excellent. We didn't have WiFi service in our room and they provided a modem for a wireless connection. The beach is small and not the greatest, but pools are nice. They should have recycling bins and not just garbage bins. Also the tour we booked to Knossos and Heraklion was just a private taxi taking us around and the taxi driver wanted to finish the tour as soon as possible. Not the nicest. Overall, our stay was great. My kids loved the pool and the kids' club. The young ladies who played with and entertained the kids were extremely nice and friendly."
