Ikones
Beautiful hotel with super friendly staff. Food was exceptional. Room fabulous with private pool. Special thanks to Eirini for booking it for us. Housekeeping outstanding. Fantastic massage. Lovely beach with comfy sunbeds ( chargeable). Only downside was the small pool which unfortunately we didn't get to use as the beds were occupied whenever we tried to go. Great area for walking to harbour and old town. (About 35 minutes) Would totally recommend
A beautiful stay — and a hotel that truly shows up when it matters
We just got back from a wonderful stay at Ikones Seafront Luxury Suites, and I can't recommend it highly enough. The hotel itself is lovely, the food is excellent, and watching the sunset from the beach is nothing short of magical. The "private beach" dinner was a particular highlight — genuinely one of the most memorable evenings of the whole trip.
But what I most want to share is how the staff treated us when things went wrong. On the very day we were due to fly home, our airline cancelled our flight. They were impossible to reach, and our travel agency had no on-call service on a Sunday, so we suddenly found ourselves stranded with no clear way forward.
The hotel stepped in without hesitation. They extended our room by two hours while we tried to sort things out, and they got on the phone to chase information on our behalf. Once we were rebooked onto a flight the next day, they let us keep the same room for an extra night at a very fair price, half board included.
They didn't stop there. They arranged our transport to the airport for the new flight, and because our departure was well before breakfast service, they prepared a breakfast basket for us to take along. They even wrote a letter describing exactly what had happened, which I could pass on to my insurance and the airline.
A great hotel is easy to find when everything goes to plan. A hotel that looks after you when your plans fall apart is rare — and that's exactly what Ikones did for us. We left grateful, and we'll be back.
Amazing holiday
My wife and I have just recently returned from a trip to Ikones Suites in Crete. We had a wonderful holiday, the staff were fantastic especially Demetriou and his team on the beach, Yiannis and Ilva in the restaurant and our housekeeper Irena. The hotel is lovely, with the beach just across the road with very comfotable sunbeds. The food was very nice and the Greek pizza that we had on the beach was excellent. The rooms were kept very clean and tidy by Irena with the towels beautifully arranged on our beds each day. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff who made our stay so special. We loved it so much that we will return again.
excellent family trip
Very nice hotel and perfect staff, excellent foods. I recomnend try the Melody spa as well, there are Eleanna & Costas at your disposal.
Is it too much to allow to hotel cards for two travelers
Ikones (or the owner) has bought hotel Zannis and service level has collapsed. Despite the different schedules with co-traveller (wife) Ikones doesn't allow two hotel cards. It is a pity because of an ankle injury of another traveller, which itself is quite harmful. The ladies in reception seem to understand the situation, but the actual decision maker not. The price of the air conditioning is 12€ a day and quite clearly the decision maker in all his/her genius mind thinks, two hotel cards means automatically all time AC! Avoid places which don't respect even the smallest wishes!
