We recently returned from a trip to the Thalassa Beach Resort. Upon arrival we were given a room which was not to our liking but the reception staff were very helpful and changed our room to a poolside room which was much better, plenty of hanging and drawer space and a lovely bathroom. We were extremely happy there for two weeks. The staff are lovely, very helpful and always with a smile. The beachside taverna, pool and bar area was great. The beach itself is a little rocky in places but we found a way into the sea in between the rocks. As it is adult only the vibe of the hotel was very laid back so much so that we could have stayed another week we were so relaxed! Aghia Marina and Platanias has plenty of tavernas and bars, the food is excellent all local produce but such large portions, we had our favourites and will try a few different ones next year. Thank you so much for looking after us and we have already booked through the hotel to return next year.

This was our first time at this wonderful hotel. We could not fault anything about it. The room was clean and comfortable with a lovely balcony with table and 2 chairs with an added bonus of having a clothes area to dry off wet swimwear. We stayed half board and the food at breakfast and dinner was lovely. Plenty of beds around the pool, garden area and on beach. The hotel was clean and staff were all wonderful and nothing was too much trouble. Agia Marina is a lovely area with plenty of shops and restaurants and the next resort, Plantanias was also worth walking to. Chania is definitely worth a visit, which you can get to by bus. The bus stop is just across the road from the hotel. We would highly recommend this hotel for a relaxing break. Thank you to all the staff and management for making our holiday a memorable one.

This was our second time staying at the Thalassa Beach Resort and again we had a wonderful 15 night stay! What makes this hotel special is the extrodinarily friendly and helpful staff (shoutout to Nektarios, Maria, Themis, and many others). The breakfast is the best we've ever had in a hotel anywhere. The rooms are very comfortable and the beach is just lovely. The pool is also great when you tired of the sand and surf. We tried the restaurant Elaion this time and were not disappointed. We also love the Agia Marina neighborhood - lots of great restaurants within walking distance. We'll be back as soon as we can.

We had a nasty fall when padling in sea shortly after arrival. There are rock's on beach which are slippery and are not visible. The hotel should make guests aware of this. My wife damaged her shoulderand needed to go to hospital.

Overall this is a good hotel with lovely helpful staff, nice pool and sunbed area which is close to the beach, there is a nice relaxed feel about the place. Beds were comfortable, breakfast was good with plenty of choice each day. Rooms a little tired in places but nothing too bad. Proximity is close to the beach, which is quite rocky in places and the sand is a course shingle type sand but this didnt really bother us too much. Plenty of supermarkets and restaraunts close by.

What a great hotel, first and foremost the staff are excellent, attentive, friendly and informative. Cleanliness of everything 10/10. Lovely gardens, bar, pool and beach on site. We had a really great split level room which was unexpected, as it happened we had very bad weather(due to storm Daniel) and had our room not have been so superb we would have been sooo miffed tbh. The breakfast is plentiful, fresh, hot, with some interesting extras like lemon and almond syrup juice, delish. Enjoyed our stay immensely. Would highly recommend. Thank you Thalassa x

We booked the hotel because it was child free and near the beach. Our room was surprisingly big and it had all that we could need. Hotel staff was very kind and helpful in every situation. Room was always cleaned. Breakfast was good, not an amazing but good! Pool area of Thalassa hotel is great and the staff of pool bar did great job. Special thanks for mr. Manos, who makes great cocktails and gave us best service and good laughs. We didn’t used hotels own restaurant because we wanted to have dinner in different places around the island. I used hotels gym two times, it was small but it worked for me. It was free to use. Great hotel with excellent staff! I think the location of hotel is very good also.

Stayed at this hotel from 30/6/23 to 7/7/23 on a bed and breakfast basis as we like to try the local restaurants for a change from hotel life.Having said that the staff were wonderful .and I mean all the staff.with nothing too much trouble for them to deal with.we were allocated a ground floor room with a garden view which was perfectly peaceful.The bed was really comfy and the bathroom with walk-in shower was spot on. Breakfast was really nice with a great selection ,even Bucks Fizz.The serving staff were very polite and hard working ,and always smiling. The pool area was very special with never a shortage of sun loungers From the pool surround to the lawned area to the private beach Everything was great. There is a great poolside swim up bar with a master of cocktails,and a very nice small beach taverna.We shall certainly book again next year for this hotel and would like to try to book the same room.All in all a great holiday with the only regret that we did not eat in the restaurant for a couple of nights.We will rectify that next year.

We stayed at Thalassa for a week and enjoyed every second of it. The hotel is located right next to the beach and offers sun chairs and sun beds both on the beach and next to the pool. The room (junior suite) was very nice and clean, with a roomy loft for the bed. The hotel has the most amazing staff who treats their guests with the utmost hospitality and kindness. The breakfast was excellent and offered a great amount of choices. We enjoyed lunch and drinks at the pool taverna Ouzaki. The food was really good at reasonable prices. We will definitely come back here whenever we visit Crete again.
