    The rooms at King Minos Retreat Resort & Spa were absolutely amazing! They were so cozy and comfortable, with all the modern comforts you could ask for. I loved how the rooms opened out to a private balcony, offering stunning views of the well maintained gardens.

    Personally, I wasn't a fan of the fact that the rooms didn't have a mini-fridge. But hey, that's just my opinion and others might not mind.

    The hotel was immaculate, with spacious bedrooms and comfy beds. The room with a private swimming pool was a standout feature. The facilities were modern and well-thought-out. The health suite was delightful, with a lovely scent and a variety of treatments. The staff were welcoming and friendly. The hotel is child-friendly, which is rare for a hotel of this calibre.

    Felt like a home away from home, no complaints.

    Value for money was excellent, with spacious and comfortable rooms. The location was great and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay at the resort.

    Spacious rooms, amazing buffet options, incredibly friendly and helpful staff, spotlessly clean. The poolside Sax entertainment was mind-blowing, with the talented artist taking requests. The refreshing poolside watermelon was a super hit! The spa experience was jaw-dropping and just what I needed before the new season.

    The hotel is situated on a side of a hill with beautiful gardens and offers easy access to the beach, just a short walk away. The location provides a variety of activities for guests to enjoy, such as mini golf and trips to the nearby villages. The rooms are comfortable with good air conditioning and the staff are friendly and helpful. The breakfast has a wide selection and there are great views from the front of the hotel.

    There is no outside seating area to fully enjoy the beautiful views from the hotel.

    They have a warm and cozy vibe that instantly makes you feel at home. The private balcony overlooking the beautiful gardens is the icing on the cake. As a family with two small kids, we loved having a peaceful space to relax and enjoy the view.

    Personally, I wasn't a big fan of the modern comforts in the room. But hey, that's just me!

    Luxurious amenities, excellent service, and stunning location - this hotel has everything you need to relax and unwind. The Spa & wellness centre is exceptional, with a range of treatments to suit all tastes. The outdoor swimming pool is beautiful, with plenty of sun loungers and beach umbrellas available. The sun terrace is spacious and well-maintained, as is the garden area. The bar/lounge area is the perfect place to unwind after a long day, with friendly staff and a great selection of drinks and snacks. The restaurant offers exceptional cuisine, with an emphasis on local ingredients and flavors.

    This hotel is exceptional, but there is one minor issue to note. The entertainment is a little lackluster, and could be improved.

    This hotel offers a wide variety of food options and a good-sized pool area with plenty of space to lounge around. The location is convenient, with a supermarket and tourist shops within a 10-minute walk. the staff is friendly and welcoming.

    Wi-Fi is only available in the lobby and bar area for a fee, which is inconvenient. , the hotel charges a fee for the room key safe, which seems unnecessary.

    Pool and Entertainment

    Stayed for a week and had a blast! The pool was clean and never crowded, so it was easy to find a spot to chill in the sun. Loved the L-shape design and the plenty of space around to lounge. The entertainment was awesome - loved the entertainment team’s enthusiasm and activity program. They kept us laughing and engaged. Location was also great - had supermarkets, bars, and restaurants right around the corner.

    The food was average. Nothing stood out and nothing memorable.

    I had a lovely stay at King Minos Retreat Resort & Spa. The faculties were great and the staff were really nice. One of the highlights was when I ordered a flower bouquet to surprise my wife during our anniversary and the hotel prepared and delivered it at the right time. The room was spacious with a comfortable bed, and I especially enjoyed the private pool. The hotel was immaculate and the facilities were modern and well thought out. The customer service representative was always helpful and nothing was ever a problem. it was a nice experience.

    Can't fault the property in any way. 👌
