Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is situated within 20 meters of our apartment, and while the room was a bit dark and had a slight moldy smell, it offered a comfortable stay. The service, especially the airport transfer in a sleek Mercedes in Greece, was incredibly helpful and attentive. The location right on the beautiful Crete sea couldn't be better, with easy access to the center of Agios Nikolaos. The dining experience was superb, offering a wide selection of traditional Cretan dishes. However, the facilities lacked some modern amenities, and the price may not fully reflect the value received.
The hotel is set across a vast area with stunning artwork of different varieties, providing a unique atmosphere. While a bit of TLC wouldn't hurt, it didn't detract from the overall pleasant stay. The rooms, though lovely, are on the smaller side.
My stay at the hotel was delightful with spacious rooms and friendly service. The location was superb, offering uncrowded surroundings and steps down to the sea. The dining experience was a mix of amazing options and some dishes being cold. The facilities were well-maintained, making my stay enjoyable.
