Sissi
The picturesque natural harbour of Sissi, is less than 100 meters from the hotel. The tourist resorts of Hersonissos and Malia with their archaeological sites are to the west of the hotel, while to the east guests will find another popular resort, Agios Nikolaos. The establishment consists of 9 traditional buildings scattered across beautifully manicured gardens. In this wonderful setting of green lawns accented by picturesque arrangements of shrubbery, guests can enjoy all the beauties of nature. Visitors can take a refreshing dip in the large outdoor pool, surrounded by lounge chairs ready to welcome sunbathers. After a day of aquatic fun, guests can enjoy a night of lively entertainment. The hotel regularly hosts Greek nights with folk dancing. Guests are invited to dine on the terrace where they can choose from international, Greek and Cretan cuisine.

Uncomfortable pool beds.
Good hotel. Clean rooms and food good. We didn't always eat at the hotel as wanted to experience the local tavernas and cafes which were great. Breakfast was a slight disappointment. Even though they have the facilities they can't make omelettes. All other food ok. Pools and their surrounds are lovely and clean. Very disappointed though in the sunbeds. They are very uncomfortable and have seen better days. Parasols also looking very sad with rust marks and holes in them. I think some money needs to be spent upgrading bed and parasols. Staff are lovely and also very helpful and welcoming.
SIMPLY THE BEST
This hotel is like a little piece of paradise. Nothing flashy all the basics you require for a fantastic holiday. Staff are wonderful friendly people always happy to help and always smiling. My room was spot on, first time ever I have paid extra for a Seaview (we are tight in Yorkshire). It won't be my last. It had its own little garden with sunbeds. I was over the moon with it. The room itself was spacious, enough wardrobe space and no breaking my neck over the suitcases. Shower was ok if you played with it and get the knack of it. Trial and error. At the end of the day you go on holiday to explore not sit and stare at the blinking room. Air conditioning was like the artic on every setting but it didn't bother us. Safes are behind reception, a bit annoying so didn't bother. The food is nothing to write home about it's your usual buffet food. Something for everyone. Your not going to starve.The area is so peaceful and quiet. The pool is a good size plenty of sunbeds. The gardens are gorgeous.The location is surrounded by a handful of posh 5* hotels. Two supermarkets bypass the one at top of street turn right 2 minute walk and supermarket half the price. Just a little walk (I have mobility issues) takes you to the bay and the little village of Sissi with a handful of shops and amazing restaurants. Big shout out for the Bakery cafe on the corner. Ice cream to die for and the best cheesecake I've ever tasted. Greek night on the front is an absolute must. The food is outstanding. Name is on pics. Sissi is a remote location 1 bus a day at 9.15 one going to Hereklion and one to Agios Nikalos, we got on both. It's confusing because you get on the bus for both locations then you get to the main road and swap buses. Sissi happy train is brilliant the driver has a very dry tongue in cheek sense of humour, right up my street. It went over most people's heads. We went up in the mountains for the day on the train. Boufos beach is a 10 minute walk to the right of the hotel seafront, just keep going. It's beautiful a bit dodgy with my mobility but with help I managed it. The beach is standard like everywhere €20 for the beds and brolly. I have to point out to other reviewers Nothing is free in this life. You get a Greek Manuel assisting with them, I found him hilarious but to faint hearted he would come across rude. In a nutshell I am 54 and this is the best holiday I've ever been on. Love all the cats. This hotel and location ticks all my boxes it's clean and refreshing the ambience is perfect. I didn't want to return home. Never have I returned to a hotel before but I am definitely returning here. Maritimo thank you for an amazing holiday.

Fabulous Spa Experience (visitor)
Ended my holiday in the Aegeo Spa at the Maritimo (Sissi) as a visitor.
Enjoyed a fabulous 70minute Cretan full body massage, expertly carried out by the therapist ‘Shima’.
Would highly recommend this Spa.
