Iberostar Waves Creta Panorama and Mare

This hotel honestly blew me away, it is truly amazing!! The accommodation was beyond good, we booked an all inclusive bungalow with sea view, mum and two teenage girls. It was stunning.. everything was emaculate. The pools are gorgeous, the grounds are so well kept, the staff were so friendly and could not do enough to help. Great food and restaurants, drinks were awesome, and entertainment was great. Different every night. I never feel I would ever go back to the same place, but honestly it hotel is so good I would definitely consider rebooking again. We also did the caves boat trip, it's only an hour and felt it was expensive, but it was amazing. Also the magic train to the village was lovely. Highly recommend this hotel, you honestly will not be disappointed. If you love baklava... oh my goodness, its included in the lunch and dinner buffet, my kids were overjoyed 🥰

This hotel is absolutely beautiful.

Myself and lots of family and friends stayed here for our wedding, around 36 people from all different ages, and this hotel pleased everyone.

Checking in we had some issues (no fault of the hotel) but the staff handled this so well, so kind calm and professional.

From the minute we walked in, the staff could not do enough for us all, handling luggage, making us all feel comfortable, drinks and chocolate on arrival.

The hotel provided us with a room upgrade for our wedding and it was beautiful!

The hotel had a number of pools (we didn’t even get chance to use them all with us being busy for our wedding), most pools are salt water and one water park which is chlorine. The kids (and adults) loved the water park!

The food - wow delicious, the buffet had a great variety of food options and lots of seating areas, indoors and outdoors. The hotel has 3 restaurants, Italian, Greek and a grill. One down fall is you can’t book these restaurants until you check in, but once we went to book most slots where gone so we had to speak to guest relations to help get us in but they managed to.

The Italian restaurant was beautiful, great setting, lovely decor and delicious food with great variety!

The grill was again beautiful - it was like sitting outside in a beautiful garden having fresh barbecue food. The hotel managed to book all my guest party into this the night before the wedding and it was perfect!

The location is also great, they have a bus into Rethmynon town for 3 euro per person, (children under 5 go free). Just a heads up on the way back your best getting off before the hotel as it stops further away if going past.

There is also a little train which goes from the hotel which takes you to a small little town (really small with a few shops and cafe) but lovely little place to visit.

There are mostly newly renovated rooms which we had and are done to a beautiful standard. There are still some family rooms which have not been re-designed but are still clean and lovely rooms.

The entertainment was good. Some pool side entertainment by the main pool, and night time kids club and adult entertainment later on. There is an arcade which was nice to get a bit of a pool and children’s club (we didn’t use as our son is 2).

This hotel was great value for money, lots of variety of food and drinks places.

No request was too much for this hotel, we couldn’t recommend enough and will definitely be back!
