Lugn & ro/vacker omgivning

The Island Adults only överträffade våra förväntningar. Hjälpsam och trevlig personal. Vi hittade alltid en solstol och maten var bra. Hotellets 3 pooler har olika teman en för relax, en ”vanlig” och en för mer action med DJ etc. Väldigt vackert hotell man tror att man är i Karibien. Stranden är jättefin och hotellet erbjuder gratis solstolar. Städningen var utmärkt. Hotellets mat var bäst i hela området så vi rekommenderar er att ta en halvpension. DJen Theodore var väldigt bra.

Gerne wieder

Die Hotelanlage war groß und hat viel geboten. Die Pools und allgemeine Ausstattung in den gemeinschaftsbereichen war sehr gut, perfekt zum erholen.

Das Frühstück hätte etwas abwechslungsreiche sein können. Der Abfluss in den Zimmern hat stark gerochen und die Klimaanlage war nicht leistungsstark genug für die Zimmer.

Super dejligt ophold med venligt personale. Vi kommer gerne tilbage en dag.

Beliggenheden tæt ved strand, gode pools.

Fitness var dårligt, det manglede klima/udluftning

Teleurgesteld

Ontbijt en avondmaaltijd met zicht op zee

1. Betaald voor zwembad- geen zon meer na 13u 2. Avondbuffet: meestal lauw of koud !! 3. Animatie: zeer beperkt 4. Zeer slecht internet 5. Omgeving vervallen, veel dicht, op 2 km een centrum klopt niet ol de simpele reden dat het amper een centrum te noemen valt!!

נהנו מאד מהמלון.

מקום מצוין לחופשה, ארוחת בוקר טובה מאד, מתקנים טובים.

נתקלנו בבעיה בזרם המים בחדר והמים לעיתים אינם מספיק חמים.

Air con very poor

2 Adults - Stayed 1st to 11th August 2023 in room 111. A Cool Junior Suite (hotels name for this suite), with seaview and balcony, on the 1st floor. We booked via a 3rd party paying €3640 (£3150.00), including breakfast. Flights and transfers extra. We booked this hotel as it had the following critical features we wanted hence we were willing to pay the high price. Air conditioning - this for us is a huge importance especially for my wife who is menopausal and suffers from extreme hot flushes. Seaview - We love a great view and it’s one of the things we look for as we live in a City. Balcony - We love sitting watching the Sun go down and a night cap on returning to the room after a night out, watching the ocean. The suite came with a full bathroom including jacuzzi bath and separate walk in shower, walk in wardrobe, open plan lounge area / bedroom and butlers pantry; two balcony’s with double sliding doors over looking the gardens onto the sea. The suite has four air conditioning vents, bathroom, walk in wardrobe, hallway and bedroom area with two control unit’s which were both set to: On-Cold-Full Power-Zero degrees. Room was an odd wedge shape and each balcony was only bigger enough for one chair and a table so a couple would have to each sit on a separate balcony and communicate via hand signals! Now it’s not a huge issue but it’s not what is shown in the photos of the “Cool Junior Suite” on the hotel’s website nor is it mentioned anywhere in the hotel or room description. So on arrival we were disappointed with the setup and felt let down as it was not what we had ordered and paid for. Aircon - We arrived in the suite at about 1530 hrs, and although the aircon was on as above the suite was stifling hot. We thought we would give it a few hours to get going just in case it had been switched on just before we arrived. On returning to the suite several hours later it was still extremely hot and unpleasant.

Wonderful, relaxing, beautiful design, great food, quiet, great sleep.

Wonderful location, beautiful clean minimal design, great spa, great restaurants and bars, clean. The bed has a luxury mattress that can give any type of sleeper a very comfortable sleep. It's quiet and serene. Great for relaxation.

The fact that the rooms are a bit of a walk from the sea and the reception. The beach in front of the hotel is not adults only fyi.

Superb

Great accomodation, with a very good location near the sea, with several restaurants and facilities. The very well-stocked shop with decent prices, the spa service, especially the massage, the 3 beautifully arranged swimming pools, with deckchairs and beds on the water, are to be commended. Regarding the room, the first 3 days we had a double room with sea view, after which, due to the small bathroom, we requested and paid for an upgrade. We received an apartment with its own pool, which was worth all the money. It is worth mentioning also the vecinity of the hotel with many restaurants, tavernas, shops, bars with live music.

Small details regarding the room facilities (not matching the expected 5 stars classification). The breakfast is good, but repetitive (no variety in 6 days) Also, a small bar on the beach would be helpful.

Very good

Great location by the waterfront, ideally situateed between Heraklion and Agios Nikolaos. The staff will bend over backwards to accomodate any request you have.

Even tough I booked half-braod, drinks -even the basic ones- were not included with the evening meal. It is greedy from the management. The beach is not private so it's not completely "adults only" but it's still OK.

Pleasant

very nice staff. service was excellent.

the hotel is old and some fixes are required. there is humidity everywhere due to licking water. walls are wet and therefore there is an unpleasant smell in the rooms and hallways. unfortunately the food is average at best , although plenty of choice. too expensive for what it offers and not really a 5 star hotel

Had a great time there!

The hotel is very clean and quiet, the employees are kind and nice, always smiling and happy to help. The dining room has an amazing view!

On breakfast and dinner the food was variated but sadly we did not like the taste of most of the things.

Excellent location, next to the sea, spectacular pools, a perfect romantic vacation

Excellent location, next to the beach, stunning pools, hotel for adults only, no families, no children and no noise. Clean and well maintained. We had a great time and although this is the second time we will come back again later.

Wi-Fi is spread all over the hotel, but at a low reception level, and therefore, unfortunately, the hotel is not suitable for business stays until the hotel understands the magnitude of the problem and upgrades the quality of surfing. Apart from the above - the breakfast is overall good but needs an upgrade in the quality and variety of the food served. We stayed there for a week and every day exactly the same food is served. The pastries are of a rather medium level and are not tasty, there is no fish and fish products at breakfast and there are not enough salads as expected from a hotel of this level and quality. You should also consider serving guests cappuccino and espresso at breakfast.

Beautiful resort, amazing food, great value

Beautiful hotel, amazing amenities, very friendly and helpful staff. The food is incredible with excellent value for money. Very cute bars and restaurants right outside the resort.

We got a room with a shared pool: I wouldn't recommend this simply because the resort is so beautiful that we didn't end up spending a lot of time in the room. It also means you have a little less privacy cause the other guests who share your pool could look inside your room unless you closed the curtains.

very silent and clam environment. possibility to swift across different kind of swimming pool and sea. really convenient the dinner in the restaurant with buffet set.
