    Great hotel with spotless rooms, amazing service, and stunning ocean views. It's a bit secluded from the nearby dining spots, but you can head to Epico for a nice cup of tea or coffee. Don't miss the signature restaurant for top-notch food and service! 🌊

    Sincerely, it was an unforgettable stay for an all-around great vacation. The location of the property was beautiful, with the hotel's floating pier. It was so close to The Blue Door taverna which was good. Amazing restaurants in Plaka and Elounda are both close to the resort.

    Simply everything, the service, the beach, the breakfast, the view of Spinalogga, the whole staff. Simply everything top. . Great hotel.

    I just want to note that the upgrade to half board, which was in the confirmation email, is not correct. We didn't mind we wanted to try the taverns in the area anyway.

    The staff is very helpful and very friendly! The breakfast has a wide choice and the restaurants in the resort are all TOP! I can only recommend it.

    The water in the pool in our bungalow was too cold, even at noon when it was warmer outside. Unfortunately we could not enjoy it.

    The location of this hotel is perfect - it is very close to the water bus stop but tucked away down a quiet street next to a pretty canal. It is on the Lido, just a short boat ride from San Marco.

    Nothing, it is perfect.
