6.6/10

The hotel boasts a stunning location with breathtaking views over the cliffs and sea, which is truly a highlight. The pools are beautiful, adding to the relaxing atmosphere, and the food quality is commendable. However, the rooms are in need of updating, and the service can feel underwhelming, especially when it comes to entertainment and bar service. Additionally, expect to fork out for beach chairs, which seems a bit excessive.

Rooms

6.0

The rooms are spacious and generally clean, complete with a balcony that offers a nice sea view. However, they're quite dated and in need of a refresh, and the TV options left much to be desired.

Service

5.0

While the staff was friendly, they appeared overwhelmed, especially at the bar during peak times. The entertainment aspect felt lacking and could use some improvements to engage guests better.

Location

9.0

The hotel's location is spectacular, perched on cliffs with easy access to beautiful snorkeling spots, though its remote setting necessitates a rental car for exploring the areas around Crete.

Dining

7.0

The buffet offered plenty of choices, showcasing good quality food, but the service at the dining areas often felt slow and could benefit from better organization.

Facilities

6.0

The variety of recreational facilities, including multiple pools, is impressive, but the issue with sunbed reservations and a general lack of pool-side service takes away from the experience.

The resort boasts a stunning location with breathtaking views and clean, spacious rooms. Although the dining experience was generally good, issues like broken amenities and outdated decor detracted from our overall enjoyment. The staff were helpful but certain facilities, like the pools, need serious attention.

6.0/10

The hotel boasts a breathtaking location perched on cliffs with stunning views and an impressive set of pools. While the dining experience offers a great variety of food, the cleanliness and maintenance of the facilities leave much to be desired. The rooms are outdated and not up to the standards expected from a mid-range resort, and the overall attention to detail in service and facilities could use significant improvement.

Rooms

The rooms are quite outdated, with old furniture and minimal amenities. A TV that only had one channel working and no Wi-Fi access in the rooms made it even less appealing.
