Hotel ratings by criteria:
If you are visiting Crete for the first time, choose this hotel. A new hotel, which means that the rooms are clean, bathrooms and just brand new equipment, fresh linen. The rooms have an LCD TV + DVD, air conditioning, slippers, bathrobes, even a trifle in the form of shampoos, hair balms, shower gels do not need to be dragged with you. Most rooms on the ground floor have their own area with a swimming pool and sun loungers. The territory is large: several tennis and football fields, two swimming pools (one is outdoors, the second is indoor, next to the gym), there is a step aerobics area, its own SPA-salon, two beaches, three restaurants, a playground.
Food. . . rating 5+. the most diverse: seafood, meat, chicken, dairy dishes, sweets by itself (during my visit there was sushi (you could even watch the manufacturing process)). Everything is very high quality and tasty.
Beach... there is pebble, there is sand. Sand, meaning not only the part of the beach where they sunbathe, but also the bottom. Also 5+ rating. Please note that in many hotels they write about the sandy beach, without mentioning the rocky entry into the sea. It's all right here. True, I can definitely say about one of the two beaches, but they are close to each other... if you want, you will find it.

Animation... I'm not particularly interested in it. There was volleyball on the beach, I didn’t watch stepaerobics, the men were chasing the ball, there were no discos concerts, and what else... no, well, figs with him. The nearest city is 2 stops on a local bus for 1.2E. . . and here you are: bars, discos, cool shops. . . have fun. . .
Excursions... Many exaggerated excursions... I advise you to rent a car and go around some places yourself, for example, the Lassoti plateau, where there is supposedly a huge number of windmills (they are no longer there, only skeletons remain), it is even better to go to the cave of Zeus by ourselves (I can’t imagine how an “excursion bus” is placed in a small cave), Phaistos is an ancient city...
All sorts of little things... the hotel has Russian-speaking staff.
At the reception, Olga answered a huge number of our questions, advised something... The restaurant has a menu in Russian . . in the SPA-salon too (I highly recommend). All information at the hotel is in 4 languages: English, German, Greek and Russian. A trifle, but nice... we planned to leave the hotel at 15.00, so they left the room for us until 14.30 for free, and did not set it up at 12.00 won. Another little thing... we were half an hour late for dinner, so the restaurant did not close until we were fed.
For animal lovers... a small number of clean, gentle cats and cats walk around the territory, it made me very happy. For the first time I regretted that I took a ticket only for a week...
