This was our first trip to Crete and we took our son for his high school graduation. We were lucky to be upgraded to a bungalow with a private pool and a view of the Mediterranean! The room was beautiful and kept clean throughout the day by staff. We were given a bottle of wine, water and fruit basket as... More

Spent here few nights in May 2013 and was more or less satisfied with the stay. Upon arrival got "upgraded" to bungalow... The hotel is few decades old, and renowated few years ago. As the title says, everywhere you see things almost done: in the lobby nice chairs + decor, but behind chairs dustballs. New paints, but painter have had... More

The hotel and our stay would be much better, but... We are facing the problems with the room. I carefully selected the hotel and the room type for the vacation with 2 kids. Finally I chose Deluxe Family Bungalow in Creta Palace. The Grecotel brochure (2013) issued in Russian, as well as their official Internet site, promised a spacious bungalow... More

Very nice and luxurious hotel. Very friendly and professional staff being available when you want them to. Beach was very nice and warm, the sea was nice. The small houses were nice enough, although the cooling wasnt good enough for a viking used to snow. The breakfast was _fantastic_, never seen so much food in one place! Loved it, and... More

Not bad, nothing to complain about, with 300 odd rooms it's not so intimate but the upside is that there is a certain infrastructure and good staffing levels.

Perfectly situated in a mid of north of Crete, nice beaches, close to Rethymnon and its cosy old town, good service, nice facilities. In September still crowded and already windy on a beach. Personnel is professionally managed and speaks all main EU languages plus russian.
