"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."

"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."

"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"

"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!"

"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...

"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...

"This was our first time at an all inclusive and this hotel really did not disappoint! Previous holidays we had always opted for self-catered as we were worried about the crowds and the quality of an all inclusive - but with two young kids we decided this was the year to just go for it!
From the moment we arrived the staff were amazing - we were made to feel really welcome. Our room (an inland view family suite) wasn't huge but it was more than big enough for 2 adults and 2 young kids (including a toddler in a cot) and it was modern and spotlessly clean. Also, we really didn't spend much time in the room because the kids loved the pools so much! With a large pool, kids pool, baby pool and slides everyone was happy! The sun loungers were 'claimed' around the main pool pretty early every morning, but as we had a toddler we preferred to be further from the main pool anyway so for us this wasn't an issue. Also we couldn't believe how calm it was around the pool despite the number of people - there was an excellent atmosphere with everyone just having a really lovely time!
Finally I need to mention the food - the choice and quality at the Samaria restaurant was outstanding! We all ate too much and even my very fussy daughter was well fed every day.
We will be coming back next year!"
"Very spacious and clean room, with a large balcony. Every day the room was cleaned and the floor was cleaned with water and wiped. Staff was always friendly and willing to help. The included breakfast was excellent with enough options to please everyone in the family of 2 adults and two kids, 10 to 15 years old. The walk to the beach was shorter than we thought (about 5 mins max) and the beach + the sea in this location were wonderful. The sunset is also a must see around 8:30PM local time."
"Large clean room. Very nice and helpful staff. Beautiful beach with plenty of chairs. Good breakfast included. Easily walkable into town with great nearby restaurants, bakeries and stores. Had an amazing and relaxing stay here."
"We had a lovely, relaxing stay at the Galini Palace Resort Hotel. The overall atmosphere was calm and peaceful throughout, as the hotel is located in a quiet area away from the main tourist crowds.
The Highlights:
The absolute star of the hotel is the pool area - it is large, beautiful, crystal clear, and offers great view of the sea. The staff were also extremely friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. The food variety in the dining room was impressive, and while not every dish was to our personal taste, we always found plenty to enjoy.
Areas for Improvement:
There were a few minor issues that kept this from being a true 5-star experience:
Pool Hours: The pool hours are quite limited (10:30 AM – 6:30 PM). We felt it would be much better if it opened earlier and stayed open later in the evening, especially during the long summer days.
Room Amenities: For a 5-star hotel, we expected more luxury touches. For example there were no bathrobes, and it was disappointing to be charged an extra daily fee to use the room safe.
Maintenance & Cleanliness: The showerhead in our room was completely clogged. Also, there was a strange, strong smell of cleaning products in the hallway outside our room, which wasn't very pleasant.
Overall, a very enjoyable stay in a beautiful setting. With a little more attention to the small details and operating hours, it would be perfect."
"Clean rooms and property.
Small bathroom and small kitchenette.
Adequate for a relaxed beach vacation.
The secure WiFi Internet was very weak, unsecured was at full strength.
Close to restaurants and small grocery store (2 minute walk), falassarna beach (2 minute drive) and bigger grocery store (10 minute drive)"
"This boutique hotel is a gem in the mountains. The staff are outstanding and make your stay worth every minute. They are attentive, friendly, helpful, and proactive at all times. The surrounding views are incredible and this is the ultimate quiet escape away from the crowds. Can’t say enough good things about this hotel and I look forward to returning."
