Modern four-star hotel providing a wide range of entertainment for all ages. Simplicity of style, delicate staff, service thought out to the smallest nuances - all this will help you take a break from the bustle of the big city and give days of serene rest. The area of ​​the territory is 16,000 sq.m. It is a complex of 2-3-storey buildings. The hotel is great for families with children.More →

1. Location: 15 minutes from the airport. The child will not get tired. But just above the hotel, the planes come in for landing (altitude 1300... 1800ft), if anyone is afraid, it must be taken into account. 2. The territory is large. Several pools. There are slides for both the little ones and adults. Children especially like the water complex with a "bucket" on top. … More ▾ 1. Location: 15 minutes from the airport.

2. The territory is large. Several pools. There are slides for both the little ones and adults. Children especially like the water complex with a "bucket" on top.
3. The beach is sandy, with a very gradual increase in depth. 200 meters from the hotel. Sun lounger and bottle of water €6. There is no bar on the beach.
4. From the beach to the left after 1.5 km along the seashore there is a marine aquarium. I recommend. To the right of the beach, 500 m, there is a fenced off quiet bay, but the water there is not at all as clean as in the open sea
5. Food. Plenty, tasty, satisfying, varied. Pizza, pork, chicken, fish, mushrooms always. Occasionally: beef, lamb, seafood. Various fruits. Everyone reports, so there is no point in rushing to the beginning of the distribution.
Alcohol as elsewhere - you can drink, but not for gourmets.
6. In the room: refrigerator, TV, air conditioner. There is no water (it is best to fill a bottle in the dining room). From detergents only liquid soap.
7. Children's club works, animators are excellent (girls from Poland). Languages: English, French, German, Polish.
8. In the evening, entertainment program in the amphitheater.
9. There was a late departure. Check out at 11. Then the bracelets are not cut off, there is a room for luggage, showers. Therefore, you can eat and continue to rest until the departure.
In general, the rest was very satisfied. I recommend the hotel

A hotel with a complex territory, not fenced, consisting of several separate buildings mixed with the private sector and complete devastation. The buildings have different distances from the sea, restaurant and reception. All buildings are different according to the years of construction, we were settled in a rather old fund, number 102. … More ▾ A hotel with a complex territory, not fenced, consisting of several separate buildings mixed with the private sector and complete devastation. The buildings have different distances from the sea, restaurant and reception. All buildings are different according to the years of construction, we were settled in a rather old fund, number 102. The building has its own separate pool and bar, where in October there is a vending machine with drinks, cakes and sandwiches and two thermoses with tea and coffee. In principle, this building is quite convenient in the sense that it is not noisy, you can not hear music and noise from the restaurant, all bars with activities are in the distance, close enough to the sea. To the restaurant 5 minutes walk, to the sea about the same, a little longer.
The downside is that there is no Internet, only at the reception, and the bathroom . . it is of course completely antediluvian. A small tray in the shower and a sticky curtain, the water pressure was always different, but more often good. A one and a half year old child was afraid to wash in such a shower, washed in the sink with persuasion) an important point, Mosquitoes! Here, of course, everything is for sale, but on the first day you may not have time to buy and be bitten, me and the child, even with a fumigator, are all in bites.
The food in the restaurant is quite decent, you can always find something, the choice is large. There is no children's table for a small child. Breakfast was buckwheat with milk, semolina, oatmeal. Everything is locally prepared, we don’t eat such porridges in Russia, plus they are very sweet. But there is always cheese, vegetables, eggs. For lunch, you can find pasta and some vegetables steamed or stewed. All meat and fish in spices. For dinner, there is no choice at all for the child. We asked the employee who works at the restaurant at the entrance to ask the chef to cook a soup without salt and spices with vegetables and chicken breast for the child - they cooked all week meekly, for free.
The new rooms at the water park seemed uncomfortable to us, because. there is a strong smell of bleach, stuffy and next to the amphitheater, which hosts a mini-disco at 20.45, then an hour later a disco for adults. The new pool rooms in front of the restaurant are also inconvenient in that well, very noisy from the music in the bar and amphitheater.
In general, we did not understand where it would be better to live)
There was a refrigerator in the room, but there was nothing in it, water was bought separately. There is also no kettle in the room.
The beach is paid, two sun loungers and an umbrella 6 euros.
There are no entertainments around, but we didn’t need all this with the child, the main thing is that 20 minutes from the airport.
In general, we liked the hotel (especially for the amount that we paid for the ticket: 68 thousand for two plus a child of 1.5, an all-inclusive week), but I would not give it 4 stars, 3 stars are quite for myself.

Rested family with a child of 7 years. Tour operator Tez tour did not distinguish itself. We arrived at the hotel around 8:00 and received the keys to the room. The sea was already warm, especially during the day, and we were very lucky with the weather, out of 8 days, 3 days were a little cool. I liked the sea, very clean, small waves. … More ▾ Rested family with a child of 7 years. Tour operator Tez tour did not distinguish itself.

The sea was already warm, especially during the day, and we were very lucky with the weather, out of 8 days, 3 days were a little cool. I liked the sea, very clean, small waves. The beaches are all equipped: changing rooms, toilets, showers. In general, the level of service is good. Beach towels were taken from home, but they seem to give a deposit. There is nothing to see in the village, even nowhere to walk, we walked along the embankment and souvenir shops in the evening.
The playground is ok. the child went to the mini-disco, the animation is not translated into Russian, there is basically nothing to do there. Within walking distance, approx. 2 km from the hotel, there is the Cretan Aquarium. The food is normal, like there is a choice, everything is delicious. the baklava was delicious. Fruits - melons, watermelons are snapped up, but also different, cherries, peaches. The apples were cut into circles and sprinkled with cinnamon. limited alcohol is included in all inclusive. In general, I liked Crete, I liked the Greeks, a very good attitude for the money. Last year we were in Rhodes, I liked the island much more.

we are sitting waiting for check-in to the hotel room from 6 am and check-in will take place only after 14 days People are fed with promises from 10 am, couples with small children eat among us.

We rested with a family with two children in July 2013. We booked a family room (2 rooms). Upon arrival, they settled in a remote building on the ground floor near the passage to the sea. Opposite the window is an abandoned wasteland with a homeless person who every day made some smelly brew on a fire. The murdered number resembles more a ward of a domestic hospital. … More ▾ We rested with a family with two children in July 2013. We booked a family room (2 rooms). Upon arrival, they settled in a remote building on the ground floor near the passage to the sea. Opposite the window is an abandoned wasteland with a homeless person who every day made some smelly brew on a fire. The murdered number resembles more a ward of a domestic hospital.
They asked to be moved - there were no rooms. They offered to come the next day at 9 am for relocation. We arrived on time - there were no rooms. The girl at the counter asked me to come at 12. We came, they showed us a better number than before. But it hasn't been removed yet. They said they would move to exactly the same as they showed, but in a different block. They said to come back in an hour. I asked several times - is it exactly the same? ? Confirmed yes. We went to lunch. Since they ran at the request of the staff to them every time like clockwork, as they asked, this time they were no longer in a hurry, they dined calmly. Came in an hour and a half and ran into frank rudeness of the staff. The girl attacked us in a raised voice: "Where do you go, why are you tearing down my settlement, why don't you come on time. " We were shocked.
As a result, we were moved, but when we entered the room, we saw that it was absolutely not the same as we were shown before, but completely different. Moreover, worse than the one from which we moved. The children's room was without a single window!! ! Pantry. How can a hotel with such rooms be 4 stars???
We returned to the reception, asked for the number that was shown to us - it was not there. They asked to return to where they were - they refused us and said that they could not help us with anything else.
Only an appeal to the tour operator with a demand to return the money for the ticket helped us to solve the situation. On the 5th day of our stay we were given a normal room. But the first 5 days of rest were spoiled very seriously.
Wouldn't recommend this hotel if you don't want to ruin your holiday.

The island of Crete has something to be proud of, and not only the sea and beaches, but also a rich history. Few places in Greece are associated with so many ancient myths and legends, heroes and gods, stories and adventures. Finally, dad and two children landed on the island of a long dream. Honestly, Heraklion International Airport named after Kazantzakis disappointed: small, stuffy - and this is with such a huge flow of passengers. … More ▾ The island of Crete has something to be proud of, and not only the sea and beaches, but also a rich history. Few places in Greece are associated with so many ancient myths and legends, heroes and gods, stories and adventures.
Finally, dad and two children landed on the island of a long dream. Honestly, Heraklion International Airport named after Kazantzakis disappointed: small, stuffy - and this is with such a huge flow of passengers.
Upon check-in, the standard room, through negotiations and surcharges, was replaced with a Family Room. Already very standard, with three-digit numbers, look miserable.
The hotel is very good. Large territory, three pools in different parts of the hotel (not counting the additional sections for children), good all-inclusive food. To the delight of children and adults, there is a mini-water park. Everyone's favorite pizza is cooked in the oven for almost a whole day. Throughout the day, the hotel has an international team of animators - well done, they try. There is a mini-club for kids, but we didn't go there anymore. City municipal beach is 3-5 minutes walk from the hotel. Sand, very gentle beach, two sun loungers and an umbrella for 6 euros. And, of course, an evening entertainment show in the amphitheater, how could it be without it. To be honest, it left a double impression - just thanks for the effort. We did not rent a car, although there was a desire.
The palace of Knossos remains one of the most impressive sights of the Minoan era. As part of the group, we visited it, as well as a walking tour of the city of Heraklion. It was very interesting. The staff at the hotel is friendly. Nui in conclusion, I would like to note that the Gouves Park Holiday hotel in terms of price-quality is just an ideal place to relax. The main thing is a good mood and positive. Have a nice holiday everyone!
