We stayed at the hotel in July 2012. In Greece and Crete for the first time, although we travel a lot. The decisive factor in choosing Crete for a holiday this time was a direct flight from our city. Choosing a hotel based on reviews on the Internet, I realized that there are not so many hotels in Crete that would meet our requirements, namely: 5 *, small in size, consisting of villas, and not of a huge building (I can’t stand it when , among marble and mirrors, crowds of people in swimming trunks crowd into the elevator to go down to the sea! ) I like hotels not in cities, but somewhere in a quiet place so that there are no strangers on the beach, given that the beaches are not the private property of the hotel - especially. Discos, night promenades and shops are also not needed! In general, to be quiet, calm, few people, tasty, clean and comfortable!
I can say that the hotel fully satisfies all these requirements! There are so few people in the main pool (more than 3-5 people did not swim at the same time! ), That it seemed at first that the hotel was half empty! But then they realized that this is because a lot of villas have their own individual pools, so the people are dispersed. Our room had its own lawn with an umbrella, sunbeds and a large jacuzzi, in the shade of trees and flowering bushes! Considering that it takes 1 minute to walk from the room to the pool and the sea, we enjoyed the solitude for the first few days and after swimming in the sea or sea water pool, we splashed in our jacuzzi and sunbathed on our lawn. The sea was just amazing! Clean, calm, comfortable temperature, the color of light bottle glass, swimming is a pleasure! The beach near the hotel is in a small bay, entering either the lagoon, but it’s shallow and slippers are needed, because. the bottom is rocky, or - from the pier. It is very convenient to swim from the pier in calm weather, but it was stormy for 2 days and I had to be content with jumping on the waves in the lagoon and the pool. It's good that the pool with sea water is clean and without bleach! The food for breakfast and dinner is excellent, a lot of fruits - watermelons, melons, cherries, peaches, etc. , delicious meat and fish, all sorts of moussacks, etc. , fresh orange in the morning, drinks at dinner are paid - good local wine and French champagne! ) Ice cream is delicious, varied , sprinkle yourself with all sorts of nuts, chocolate -mmm! In short, recovered by 2 kg! (
Of the shortcomings - unstable mobile communications, the network was constantly lost in the room! And no free Wi-Fi! Upon check-in, however, they provide an hour of free time, and then they bought unlimited for 40 euros.

I would also like to note the exceptional friendliness of the staff - at the Reception, the waiters in the restaurant. By the way, there are also Russian speakers, which sometimes makes any task easier! If the review is somehow analyzed by the hotel management - a big thanks to the main manager of the hotel, who helped solve the problem with the broken Internet and the waiter Svetlana - very helpful and pleasant!
The hotel, in my opinion, is very good for couples, parents with children - there are children's pools, slides. But young people and those who love nightlife will be bored!
