Excellent staff, rooms need renovation
We holidayed here for 9 nights booked through Jet2holidays. The walk up the hill after the coach drop off was quite tough with our suitcases in the afternoon sun, definitely easier going home. We received a very friendly welcome and the communal areas looked very nice so we were excited to get to our sea view suite. Unfortunately our impression on entering our room was very disappointing. The room was very dated and scruffy looking, not 4 star and was far below our expectations given the holiday price.
The suite was a good size and had plenty of storage in the bedroom. We didn't use any of the cooking facilities in the kitchen except the kettle. Beds were comfortable and the aircon in the bedroom was welcome. It would be nice to have a unit in the living area too. The shower in the bathroom was again very dated but except for 2 days we had plenty of hot water. Cleaning was just adequate.
The pool bar was very nice with lovely views and parasols for shade. We are not pool people which is a good thing as people are up at the crack of dawn putting down towels. We found it funny but it is probably annoying for other guests. All the staff we met were really friendly and work hard. Breakfast offers a great choice but it is a small room and gets congested at times. Avoid 8.30 am if you want a more peaceful experience.
We loved the location as we are used to hills and enjoy walking. The choice of bars and restaurants in the villages is excellent. Our favourite restaurants were Gevsi and Patriko. The sports bar Antidote is also really friendly and good for watching the games.
We love this area and have visited on 3 occasions now at different apartments. We will return but not to Amazones until the rooms have been renovated.

Great food, great views, great staff, great pool area, overall worth it.
Staff were great, friendly and always around. Boss was always around too if there was ever any issues although we did not have any. Pool area is really nice overall really nice. Showers could do with some improving but rooms also nice very spacious. Great food, great breakfasts, great bar. Around 20 minutes from beach and strip which is all down hill (up hill on the way back) or taxis is less than 5 minutes drive. There is a smaller strip 2 minutes away from the hotel with everything and is absolutely great. Everyday ate at a different restaurant on this strip. Great place to stay, great location, great views, but be prepared to walk most days or get taxis! Definitely try it out if you haven’t been to Crete before.

Chill out week
We have, just returned from this lovely hotel. We have been before 2 years ago. George remembered us which was lovely. The hotel is situated above Koutalafari village. Steep hill and steps to climb so if any mobility issues maybe best to get a taxi back from the village. The view is amazing tho. Lovely room B2 had an, amazing view too. The pool area is lovely and clean and plenty of sunbeds. The breakfast is lovely scrambled eggs bacon or sausage pastry sweet and savoury. The best Greek yoghurt too. We came home Sunday, and have booked to go baxk next June. I would recommend visiting this hotel

Stunning
First time staying at this hotel, won’t be our last. Excellent service from all the staff who are just lovely and can’t do enough for you. Our room was clean on arrival and housekeeper came daily except for Sundays. Food was fantastic, I loved the breakfast which varied daily and all the pastries and cakes are made fresh in the day. Had lunch and evening meal a couple of times, can’t fault anything.
The pool is lovely, getting a bed can be an issue sometimes as you would expect, but plenty of sun on the terrace if you sit there. The view from the pool area is stunning, watching the sun rise and set was lovely
Location wise, if you have mobility issues, then the walk down to the village and back up may be challenging. But those without, it’s fine.
Plenty of places to eat and drink in the two villages and only a few minutes walk. We love coming to the villages as they are authentic Greek, tranquil and just beautiful people. Can’t wait to come back and will definitely book this hotel when we do.
Perfect week away
Just on the transfer coach to the airport after a fabulous week at Amazones village.
George & Daria were so friendly, helpful & welcoming.
Special Thank You to Nikos & Manos who were exceptional taking care of us and making us feel part of the community from day one.
The one downside is the sunbeds by the pool - people get up and chuck towels on them to reserve them before the sun has come up & if you get down to the pool after 9am you are highly unlikely to get a sunbed.
We are booking to come back again next year but for longer!
Piskapiano & Koutoulafari are gorgeous villages, we had no trouble getting around but if you have mobility issues or very young children it may be difficult to get around without using local transport - some areas are not accessible by motor vehicles though.
Perfect week away, thank you.
