Great hotel literally on the beach!
With a choice of three pools and the beach literally at the end of the hotel this hotel was perfect for us. The staff are fantastic, the hotel spotless and the food is lovely. Breakfast is varied with a good selection of cooked, continental and lots in between.
Yes you have to pay extra for the beach lounger but you do anywhere along the beach. Currently €15 for two beds and a sun shade. You get water and fruit included plus attentive staff waiting to take your order. We stayed in the new part across the road but don’t let this put you off. There’s a bridge to walk over but the road isn’t busy anyway. I think the new part is the nicer part of the hotel. Air con was a God send and the fridge in the room helped with keeping drinks etc cold.
We like to explore different areas of Greece but wouldn’t hesitate to go back.

Highly recommend
We have just returned from a 10 day stay at the Atlantica Amalthia Beach and would highly recommend.
We had a room in the newer part of the hotel. It was clean, modern and a great size. Our balcony looked out onto the pool area which was ideal.
We never struggled to get a sunbed by the pool, which were really comfy and all had umbrellas available. The pool area closest to our room also had a bar which we used every day. The staff there were amazing - so friendly and helpful.
The breakfast area is on the smaller side but still had a good variety on offer (fresh fruit, bacon, eggs etc, fresh pancakes, cereal). Staff were always keeping food topped up and we never had to queue up even when it was a bit busier.
We also used the beach bar/restaurant at lunch time which had a really good and varied menu.
Overall, we would definitely return and recommend to others.
Lovely hotel , great staff over priced drinks
Honest review
Good points - staff are excellent , so friendly and helpful , our room was on the other side of the road , very modern with seaview, was cleaned every day had a little fridge and good lighting , spacious with modern bathroom
Swimming pools on both sides of the road , sadly never enough beds and although there is a rule no towels to be put on bed before 8.30am most mornings by that time all beds taken
The beach is directly at back of hotel with lots of beds but charging 15 euro for two beds for guests I think is not very good , beach clean and lots of little restaurants along the road and beach
Things that could be improved are room towels for shower are far too small !!
Charging for beach beds is not good
Hotel drinks are very expensive compared to other bars next door
The posiden restaurant next door is thoroughly recommended
All in all great stay

Good Hotel with friendly staff
We stayed here from the middle of June for 2 weeks, in the newer part across the road. The room was really comfortable cleaned well and towels changed regularly. Our cleaner was very friendly and hard working. Breakfasts were good just a queue for omelletes and the coffe machine. The top pool was very nice an clean. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Enjoyable stay, wpyld not hesitate to return

On the beach
This hotel comes in 2 half’s the older rooms very near the beach we had one of these rooms the other modern trendy rooms with pools are across the road everywhere was clean . The room was on the small side bathrooms ok and balcony looked into a road you could see a tiny bit of sea . Most people stay B&B as outside the front entrance are many restaurants bars & a few supermarkets . We did half board breakfast near reception area not a huge amount to choose from small buffet area mixed hot cold food cakes ect good quality food . Evenings 7-9pm food outside next to beach lovely setting great service by waiters but very limited menu not buffet it had entertainment 3 nights till 9pm low key which was nice . Tui reps visit she was helpful and lovely . The one downside was pool beds go very quickly not enough really and so we used the hotel beach beds these were not so comfortable as the pool ones no mattress very basic but we had to pay 15 euros a day for 2 this adds up . I stayed in other Atlantica hotels that haven’t charged for better beds . Used the little train that stops near the hotel for a few trips . Chania town lots to see it’s huge . Had a great holiday but wouldn’t return.
