We have just returned from Asterion hotel, and just like everyone else says, this hotel is magical, we had a 2 bedroom suite which was fantastic as my partner and I never travel light, so plenty of room for our clothes, the rooms are cleaned daily by the friendly cleaning team, and our fridge was never empty of beer, fruit juice and cold drinks, water was plentiful. In the dining room there was always plenty of choice even though my partner and I are both pescatarian, just be careful with the minestrone as it has bacon in it, the staff couldn’t be more helpful especially Maria, but all the staff are fantastic. We loved the ordering from the bed service and the longest we waited for a drink was 5 minutes with the record was held by the fantastic Ramesh of 2 minutes. At the bar there is the amazing Tony and George or as we have nicknamed Tony Negroni never had one before but now it’s our favourite drink. All in all this is a fantastic hotel with amazing staff.
We recently had the most amazing holiday here, and this was one of many stays we’ve enjoyed at this beautiful hotel.
The location is wonderfully relaxing, right on the beachfront, with first-class food and service throughout. The rooms are beautiful, everywhere is absolutely spotless, and the whole hotel has such a tasteful, classy, adults-only feel. It really does offer a very special experience and is somewhere we always look forward to returning to.
There is, however, one thing that really lets the standard of the hotel down — the live piano entertainment on a Tuesday evening.
Unfortunately, it was genuinely embarrassing. A restaurant full of guests had to sit through what could only be described as very poor karaoke-style entertainment, and it just felt completely out of keeping with the otherwise sophisticated atmosphere of the hotel.
Please 🙏 consider bringing in some quality professional artists who complement the beautiful setting and the standard of experience you provide everywhere else. This hotel deserves entertainment that matches the class and quality of everything around it.
We have never been to a hotel where every single member of staff from cleaners to waiter, receptionists and bar staff and all that falls in between, have been so kind and helpful.
The staff were faultless, the rooms were spacious, the food was exceptional and varied and the location was peaceful and convenient for day trips out. If we are in Crete again we wouldn’t stay any where else.
Thank you once again to every member of staff at Asterion. We hope our thanks are passed on by whoever receives this review.

What can I say. Had the privilege of staying in some of the best hotels in the world… but my stay at Asterion has been a magical time and up there with my best hotel experiences.
Hotel Fabulous boutique style hotel. Rooms are modern and stylish with plenty of space.
Food Main restaurant and buffet food was stunning. Breakfast, lunch and dinner, so many yummy styles of food to try.
Drinks Cocktails delivered to your bed via the app. Amazing cocktails and a fab selections of wines. All of these are part of the all inclusive deal.
Staff The best staff ever!!! Anywhere.. I can’t express how amazing the staff are!!! Everyone is super happy to help your stay to be perfect. Food and drinks served with the biggest smiles and with full of enthusiasm. We had a birthday meal arranged one night. Hotel organised the birthday table. They made a birthday cake. They also arranged the live band to pause and sing happy birthday to our party member. Honestly it was perfect evening
The American-Greek head of customer relations is amazing. She spends time getting to know everyone who’s staying here. She organised meals in and out of the hotel. She also organised ebike hire for us too. She is brilliant at her job!
So in summary…
The best time ever!
We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The hotel is very clean, rooms are spacious with good rain shower. It has very nice pool and beach area, which unfortunately, we couldn’t use because of the storm. There is a buffet at the hotel, which was probably one of the best, that we had for both breakfast and dinner. But what made our stay very special, are people who work there, especially Michael and Katerina, who went above and beyond their duties and made us feel like we are visiting a family. I would definitely recommend this hotel.
