My husband and I stayed at the Minoa Palace for a portion of our honeymoon with the half board package and we greatly enjoyed the experience. Their location was great and transportation to Chania was easily accessible. The half board includes breakfast and dinner in which the food was excellent. We choose this option so that we could venture out during the day and explore other places for lunch. Their services were amazing from the spa to the various classes you could participate in. The pools were beautiful and easy access to the beach. I would highly recommend a stay here if you’re looking for a place near Chania.

Despite our stay starting with a havoc caused by the fire on the neighboring farm (not the hotel's fault), it turned into a very pleasant experience with the hotel personnel at all levels trying hard to mitigate any negative experience we might have had, even without us asking. The room was cleaned from ash blown in by the wind from the fire immediately, and, as soon as it became possible, we were upgraded to a room with beach views and farther away from the fire affected area. Staff on the property all are extremely polite and accommodating. I highly recommend this place to anyone planning stay in this area. A lot of tours available in the area, amazing dining options, and very warm local people will add extra positive notes to your enjoyment of the beach.

Great service. Great facilities and gorgeous resort. Excellent food and dinning options. Beach was well kept. From the moment we arrived the staff were very attentive and helpful. They handled our bags, had us in our room as an early checkin in a reasonable time. Made us feel welcome and gave us several perks for us to enjoy. Highly recommend this hotel if you like luxury and 5 star service

This is an older hotel. Unless you pay for a beach front room this property is old. It is split into 2 hotels which are joined by a bridge that takes you across the street to the beach side where the rooms are slightly nicer. Not the cleanest hotel and staff not professional. Beach chairs are uncomfortable and chairs by the pool are all on grass. Not the type of hotel we thought we were getting.

Our stay was wonderful from start to finish. The staff were so attentive and provided impeccable service. Especially Zoi who we had both at breakfast and the Galazio where she introduced the food, outstanding. The facilities were brilliant from the beach, pool, spa, gym and use of the paddle court. Will definitely be coming back here at some point in the future.

We would absolutely come back here again. We had a lovely time despite being a bit cooler and stormier at the end of September. On arrival the staff were very friendly and helpful, we were shown to a seating area and checked in electronically. We were also given some fizz which always helps. Bags were taken to the room, always good after travelling. We had a few extras in the room on arrival such as a bottle of wine and some snacks. All the staff members, bar one or two, were very friendly, smiley and helpful. One or two were chugging on to the end of the season wishing they were elsewhere but it only showed itself in a slight grumpiness, it was only obvious because everyone else was so nice and smiley. The staff were able to sort issues really quickly and without fuss, greatly appreciated. The hotel is split between two sides of a road. The way it is built is really clever so you need to take a moment to get your bearings. You will not notice the road on the landward side unless you are by the hedge next to the road. We tried to sit there but moved. Everyone else seemed really happy there though so its probably just me being sound sensitive. There is a really nice bridge/walkway going from the main reception building to the beach side of the hotel, so you do not need to cross the road. There is a main pool here and we spent most of our time lounging around it. We had a suite of rooms on the landward side, a bedroom, lounge/ dining area and a bathroom. These were

Great place to stay for relaxation on the premises! What I particularly liked is that because the hotel is so spread out, it did not feel busy even though it was fully booked. The staff provided a great example of Greek philoxenia by catering to our every need. I think the property is just a few infrastructure upgrades away from being able to be considered a true luxury destination hotel and less of an all-inclusive place. Overall 4/5. Will recommend to anyone in my network needing a resort in Platanias.

We are from Boston and we went to Crete to renew our vows. We choose Minoa to accommodate us and all our guests and we were above and beyond happy with our choice. The location of the hotel was amazing, food, cleanliness , structure, everything was more than we were expecting. The service and employes was sooooo lovely and friendly without excluding anyone. Zoe from the front desk was incredibly helpfull and made our stay unforgettable , people from the spa (Elizabeth got my nails done and she was amazingggg ).. Niko our server in the restaurant was every day so nice and we could tell how happy he was for working there. We truly reccomend Minoa Palace Resort and spa and we are looking forward to come back as many times as we can. Thank you so much all of you for an amazing time .

Our room was in a newly added wing and very spacious for 3. Very close to a noisy road though, but I guess that can’t be avoided in this area. Staff was friendly and breakfast was very good. It felt a bit overpriced compared to neighboring hotels though.
