lovely stay
really loved the spa treatment by eugenia and jueda. had an excellent stay at the hotel with such welcoming staff at the reception and erantos restaurant.
Head massage
The atmosphere that has been created was amazing! Massage rooms are very relaxing and stuff is very kind and polite. Ms Eugenia has magic hands:) highly recommended!!!
Deep Tissue Massage for two
Both my sister and I got the deep tissue massage at the spa - it was amazing, we had Eugenia and Emma. Both were super friendly and made the experience so relaxing that my sister fell asleep!
A brilliant hotel and spa
We’ve had an amazing stay at this hotel and would happily recommend it to anyone visiting Crete.
From the moment we arrived, all of the staff were so welcoming and friendly, always smiling and happy to help with anything we needed. They really made us feel at home throughout our stay.
The hotel itself is spotless, with the rooms and communal areas kept incredibly clean every day. The pools were fantastic, with plenty of sunbeds available, making it easy to relax and enjoy the sunshine. The spa treatments available are brilliant. We booked the couples message for our wedding anniversary and the girls in the spa made it extra special and really went above and beyond to treat us
The food was varied and always fresh, with something different to choose from each day. We particularly enjoyed being able to try some traditional Greek dishes alongside more familiar options.
The location is great too, with Gouves beach, local shops and restaurants all within easy reach, while still being peaceful enough to completely unwind.
A huge thank you to everyone at the hotel for making our holiday so memorable. We’ve had a brilliant week and would love to come back in the future!
Brilliant spa experience
My husband and I had a couples spa treatment while staying at the Aelius Hotel & Spa and it was wonderful. We had the luxury body scrub, hydration and massage package. Emma and Katia looked after us brilliantly, ensuring we had a peaceful, relaxing couple of hours. The products were really lovely and left the skin feeling incredible. Will definitely use the spa again before we leave.
