This charming and rustic hotel is set right on the coast, just a short walk from the small, sandy coves as well as the city centre of Chersonissos. The town offers various shops, bars, restaurants and entertainment venues, many open 24 hours a day, and numerous sites with ancient ruins can be found throughout the area and the island. The hotel has 196 standard rooms and 8 maisonettes, all air-conditioned and furnished with en suite bath, balcony or terrace, refrigerator and satellite TV. Guests can energize for the day in the hotel gym, relax in the sauna and hammam or by the outdoor pool, play tennis, table tennis or billiards, and enjoy Greek and Cretan themed evening entertainment after a delicious meal at the hotel restaurant. Tasty treats and refreshments can be found throughout the day at the snack bar and lounge bar, and guests can indulge in breakfast in bed with room service. The perfect place for a relaxing, sunny holiday in Crete.

Another lovely relaxing stay
We have recently returned from an all inclusive 2 week stay and want to thank you all for yet another wonderful/welcoming stay (we were with you May/June 2025). Thank you Nikos for arranging for us to have the same room as last year, very much appreciated. The hotel, built in the style of a Greek village, is in a lovely position across the bay from the very lively/noisy Hersonissos resort hotels so offers peace and quiet, we can thoroughly recommend it unless you want all night entertainment. We have seen some reviews remarking on the ‘tired and out of date rooms’ we cannot totally agree with this as they have everything one requires and are kept beautifully clean by a friendly diligent cleaning crew Who spends time sitting in the room when the sun is shining and there is a lovely sea front beach bar expertly managed by Max, the beach and local Taverna to enjoy???? The food offerings, at all meal times are extensive, well cooked and thoroughly delicious and the wine perfectly chilled👍. The restaurant is managed by a lovely chap called George, maître d’, who is present at all meal times working very hard to ensure everything in the dining room works seamlessly. We must also thank our waiter Antonos for looking after us with his excellent friendly service and enabling us to sit in our preferred location on the restaurant veranda. After dinner you can relax in the inside/outside hotel bar where Micheal makes a perfect Ouzo with water and ice and of course many other drinks, also some evenings the bar is the location for entertainment, this year an excellent singer. If this hotel is aware that you are celebrating eg. birthday, wedding anniversary etc. the head of housekeeping, Maria, takes a lot of trouble decorating you’re room with flowers, artificial trees, fairy lights, flowers, wine and various other pretty things….loved the addition of the love bird ornament….thank you so much Maria for making our anniversary special both this year and on our 2025 visit you’re artistic installations are so very much appreciated. Sadly for this lovely hotel there is, close by, currently under construction, a huge garish water park standing out like a carbuncle on the horizon together with two hotels. We fear that upon completion and inhabitation these hideous structures might spoil the whole area but of course there is nothing the Hotel can do but live with it and hope that it does not impinge too much on this lovely area. Thank you All for looking after us once again and hope to see you all on our return in September.

Massage
Kivikali Very nice and Relaxing! Perfect English! Communication was great! Very pleased!
Definitely not 4 stars!
The appearance of this hotel is very deceiving as the buildings and gardens are beautiful but our room was horrible. It probably hasn’t been decorated since the place was built. There was artex thrown at the walls, broken tiles in the bathroom, broken shower rail so the water went all over the floor, a peculiar old radio in a bedside cupboard, and a disgusting smell of urine coming up through a drain in the bathroom. Meals in the restaurant were like school dinners and we went along the road to a restaurant one night to get an authentic Greek dinner.
