Stunning place to stay

I cannot compliment this hotel enough, the staff were so friendly and helpful, the room was lovely and comfortable. As I am a primary school teacher it was great that it was child free. The food (we had half board) was absolutely stunning and made even more so because there was not a single British option!!! All the food was authentic Greek or Mediterranean cuisine and tasted divine! The bar staff were equally as helpful and everyone made this the best 60th birthday present ever.

Hotel Ariadne Crete

The hotel was well overdue for an update and is looking tired with many areas requiring attention if it is to regain and improve on what proved to be a disappointing visit for my wife and myself. Many things fell below the standard expected for a four star hotel offering an all exclusive experience.

Chill out hotel

Great little find , adults only hotel , rooms are bungalow style, so no noise above or below spotlessly clean , beds very comfortable , all facilities are fantastic , restaurant great selection of food , never went without a meal, there are options of board to to suit everyone, 2 pool areas, they don't have an animation team it is literally a quiet chilled hotel ,the bar in the evening was located at the front of the hotel so you can just sit and watch the world go by, or join in the dancing , a short walk into the main town or get a taxi if you can't walk it , all staff very helpful and chatty, the rooms are on an incline so if infirm or have walking issues request a low room

Lovely village, great holiday

Very nice hotel, located between sea and main road of beautiful village of Stalida. One can walk along the road visiting cute shops and restaurants. We loved the location and the village very much.

Hotel is not very big, few three stories buildings and it was full. No option to upgrade a room, what was unfortunate. We had view to the parking and bins (114), although the hotel has very nice views and gardens.

Pool is good, beach is lovely. Big waves and warm. Kids spent hours there.

Paying for the sun beds is a good idea. No need to rush there early in the morning to reserve a sun bed. Pool guy will bring you as many as you wish, 2,5 € for each per day.

Breakfast was fine, no long lines. Dinner was included but I prefer to eat in different local taverns.

Just Wonderful..

Having been recommended this place by a friend 'Mr Pete', my wife and I arrived at 2am in the morning. We were shown to a lovely room, 50 paces from the beach, the location of this place is second to none. The staff across the place (I could name all of them) are super friendly, attentive and ensure the place is kept immaculately. The food was well prepared, not the biggest area to select it perhaps, but not an issue. Predominantly the clientele were from mainland Europe which was great , it was like a holiday of old. It is effectively a community and such a good vibe from several bars shops and restaurants around it...In 35 years of holidaying abroad I can say, in some wonderful places, we will definitely return..100% Thank you to you all there, see you again.❤️ Mark and Sharon.
