Great location; ideal for exploring Heraklion, Knossos, Rethymno areas (with a car). Staff were friendly. The food was plentiful, good and varied. The water slides were loads of fun.
The cleanliness of the room was fine, but not spotless.

This definitely isn’t a 5 star hotel, though we a good time and there positives:
-The room feels new and is a decent size but balcony is small. Cleaning is OK
-The food is great
-Alcohol is really good from the main bars in the evening (premium brands, good selection)
-The beach and waterpark are great
-The staff are friendly
BUT, there are many things that we’ve never experienced at a 5 star hotel and that would stop us staying again :
- The swimming pool isn’t big enough for the number of guests; lots of people were arguing with reception about it. The sun loungers are crammed in next to each other and you can’t get them most of the time - it resembles a 3 star hotel in Benidorm. (the beach is better and we paid €30 for a cabana most days to have a good spot)
-There is no drinks service by the pool or, more importantly, in any of the restaurants. If you want water at breakfast, wine at dinner, or a juice for your child, you have to go and queue for someone to serve you. They do bring water to your table at dinner but the staff are too busy and sometimes miss you. I’ve never known this in a 5, or even 4 star hotel. It's attrotious
-There are lots of extra charges such as for ice cream or cocktails on the beach
-There is no iron in the room and no way of getting one. Again, We’ve never known this in an hotel, let alone 5 star
Overall, our child loves it but we wouldn’t stay again and don’t think it is good value for money (€400 a night)

We had overall a nice stay at Fodele beach. Positives: water park is great- very well organised and with lots os different slides and pools. It is the highlight of the hotel. Staff is nice and the entertainment team is absolutely fantastic- the best I have ever seen in hotels. Lots of entertainment options and evening shows. Beach is nice - not the most scenic but the water is warm and calm most days. Hotel is close to the airport (30min) which is very convenient. Negatives: hotel is built on a hill so be prepared to spend the whole day going up and down. Some parts of the hotel felt a bit tired and not 5 stars. For example the bathrooms by the pools. The lockers for the bathroom doors are dodgy and I got stuck twice and had to be released by people outside. The food could be better. There are lots of options on the main restaurant but generally food is oily. The wifi in the rooms doesn’t work. We moved rooms on the first night because of that but new room closer to reception was only marginally better. Staff drives around on golf carts which doesn’t feel safe for kids to walk around. Also the golf cart’s brake undid when we were removing our bags from it and almost hit our son. Lucky it was just a scare but it could have been serious.

Crete was the third stop on our trip and we were so excited to check out this amazing waterpark resort overlooking the Aegean Sea. Overall the resort is ok.
Things we loved: Staff was very friendly and helpful, Room was big and loved having 2 bathrooms, Waterpark was very fun, Beach was beautiful and the views even better. Loved the daily entertainment, we have never laughed harder than we did at the resort comedy show. Quick taxi ride from the Ferry Port or Airport.
Things we wish were different: It is an All-inclusive that is mostly self service, you serve yourself everywhere you go, have to get your own food, your own drinks, no towel, drink or food service at the beach or the pools. Felt like a self service resort which was very odd to us for a 5-star hotel . Food was the same everyday and got very boring very quickly, reservations for the only 2 other restaurants were very inconvenient and difficult to make, plus wines were not included in the restaurant reservations. The enormity of the resort also makes it a bit exhausting to go from one end to the other.

The staffs at the desk were welcoming particularly Gianna and Michael. All the staffs were friendly and happy to help.
Maria (the staff at the bar downstairs) was very cheerful and skilled in making good drinks.
The facilities was great.
Security was good
At the pool areas, there is always life guards that are serious about making sure everyone is safe.
I will give the hotel a rating of 9/10.

Perfect hotel for families with children. The water park is very good, clean and organized. The service and food are great. Ask for a room in the first row to the sea and you will get a perfect view and the sound of pleasant waves. Highly recommended!

Beautifully located resort with a great beach and a very nice water park.
The resort is built on a mountain, so many stairs expect those who stay in the top rooms. There is a small train (active between 10:00 and 18:30) and a golf car to take you if you're not in shape to take the stairs.
We reserved 2 beach front rooms and requested to have adjacent rooms as we are a family with kids.
When we arrived, we received found that the rooms are comfortable, but quite old. The rooms were adjacent and inter-connected which was great.
In the evening we found that the location of the rooms (below the main swimming pool) is unfortunate because there was loud music in the pool area. The morning after, we asked if there was an option to change rooms and they gladly offered us to switch to a 2 bedroom family accommodation. No beach front, but much nicer and nicely renovated accommodation.
I would recommend going for a renovated room, but unfortunately, there is no easy way to know if a room is renovated or not when you book online.
The water park was the main reason we selected this resort, and it was indeed great fun.
We stayed in early October and the water in the swimming pool was cold, so we tried the heated pool (which is external), but the water there were not much warmer...
Breakfast is varied and excellent, but lunch and dinner, although varied, was not tasty.

We had high expectations, but the hotel managed to exceed even these highest expectations. Great service, best waterpark of all hotels we have been to, very big facility that could enable us even to dance in the big plaza to the sound of live music, and to eat meals without having to book in advance. And on top of that - gave us 4 hours to stay in one of our rooms for free until leaving to the airport. It was our second visit after 7 years and definitely would like to come back. Very recommended by our whole family (9,12 and 15 year old).

Nice hotel with sea views from most rooms. A good selection of quality food in the restaurant and the way the perspex screens had been installed for COVID and meant the hotel was able to serve the food quickly and efficiently.

We were at Fodele for 6 days, the view is amazing the hotel is great. We enjoyed our stay a lot - the staff is super helpful & kind, the rooms are nicely decorated, clean & comfortable, the animation team is dynamic, creative and kind. We even got a surprise birthday cake for our son waiting in the fridge on his birthday - very nice attention. Last, we have specific dietary restrictions and the team accommodated our needs at every meal at no extra cost which we appreciated a lot.
