Royal Marmin Bay Boutique & Art Hotel

Nice hotel located on the entire hill but there are 2 lifts and buggy service, very good breakfast , nice private beach ( you need to use a lift to go down and cross a road , not many cars ) . Standard rooms are not big but nice and clean and not very high so access is easy to the beach and breakfast and to the pool area

Overall a great experience! Very friendly staff, beautiful views and the breakfast is a real treat.

Hôtel parfait La vue magnifique Gentillesse du personnel Chambre parfaite

Ein wirklich sehr gutes 5 Sterne Resort. Lage,Zimmer, Service alles Top. Ich weiß nicht, was manche negativ bewerten!. Das ist kein 5 Sterne Stadt Hotel in London, New York oder Tokio. Aber selbst da, haben Sie kleinere Zimmer und keine solch tolle Aussicht

Lovely place!! I visited with my husband, parents and two brothers. Room - our room was lovely, we think we may have been given an upgrade as our room had a huge balcony with wonderful sea views, spacious and clean. The bathroom was a bit strange, there was no ventilation so once my husband and I had a shower it was a bit of a slip hazard and ridiculously warm. Breakfast - lovely breakfast, fresh. The first day we arrived I think we got the timing wrong as it was so busy but after that we were early risers so no problem getting a table. Coffees were lovely included with breakfast. Lunch/day time drinks- the prices are slightly eye watering for drinks. Both at the pool and the beach. It’s a shame really because although it’s a gorgeous place, the prices do not need to be that incomparable with the rest of the area. Dinner - we did adventure out mostly for dinner so cannot comment, when we came back the pool bar was often busier with some live music one night. My brother did try and join a wine tour one evening but they were told it wasn’t on and hadn’t been on for months, even though they advertise it? Beach - lovely beach, quick service but can be a little hard to get beds. It is an adults only hotel however they seem to sell the beach beds to anyone so this is not a kid free zone which seemed a little bizarre to us. Spa - treatments were ok, the area you sit in before and after your treatments aren’t that relaxing or luxury. You do end up leaning against the wall on top of a couch style seat. But the girls were very helpful and accommodating.

Das Hotel liegt etwas außerhalb von Elounda, dem schönen Örtchen im Nordosten der Insel. Es ist neu und wir hatten einen herrlichen Blick von unserem „de Luxe“ Zimmer mit Meerblick. Wegen der extrem steilen Hanglage gibt es mehrere Aufzüge und Golf-Carts die einen dahin kutschieren, wo man hin will. Am Wasser gibt es einen kleinen Privatstrand. Wir hatten Halbpension, was wir nicht wieder tun würden, denn obwohl das Frühstück wirklich gut ist, fanden wir das Abend Buffet für seinen Preis überteuert. Im nahe gelegenen Elounda gibt es sehr schöne, kleine Restaurants.

Prachtige locatie, zalig strand en uitzicht. Kamers met prachtig zicht maar wel heel klein met superkleine badkamer. De kamers zouden een beetje opgefrist kunnen worden voor een 5*. Eten was goed meer niet. De frisdranken vond ik duur, 5€ voor een cola is er wat over. Ongelooflijk vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel

We have just returned form an amazing week at the Royal Marmin . The hotel is in the most idyllic setting overlooking the bay and with the most spectacular views . From the moment we arrived we knew we had struck gold with this very special place . Nicholas - the hotel manager - is both a delightful guy and also runs a tight ship . All the staff are genuinely welcoming and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. A particular shout out to Angela who is the host at the beach and also Mario who ran us to and from our room countless times in the buggy . The food is good and the cocktails even better! All in all a special place looked after by a great team of caring people who understand good service - something that is rare today . A big thank you to you Nicholas and all your team for giving us such a lovely week - we will be back !

Firstly I’d like to say a massive thank you to the hotel manager Nikolaos Thanellas, this is a truly amazing gentleman who has this very beautiful establishment running like a very fine Rolex, the staff here are fabulous, always smiling and very happy in the jobs they do, this makes the service to quests a lot more spectacular, Well done Nikolaos 👌 Maria Drakaki, Guest relations manager had given me and my partner a wonderful tour of the facilities and the various rooms the hotel has to offer prior to our next years booking, we both would like to thank you for your time and your hospitality, you did an amazing job just watch your knee on the cart handbrake in future 😁 George and Angela at the beach bar are absolutely fantastic even at this time me and my partner were not quests at the hotel they made us feel very welcome and we really do appreciate that. So thank you to both of you. As for the gentleman and his lady assist who’s names I’ve unfortunately forgotten, they run the beach restaurant and are also very amazing people, the quality of the food, the service, that combined with the friendliness of the staff makes the experience exceptional. However i do think that he may well be a comedian as he always made us laugh every time we visited him and nothing was too much trouble to fulfil our needs, that said this was only 5 days of 7 we stayed in Crete. 100%,,,,,! if your looking that perfect couple retreat that’s adult only you’ll be hard pushed to find a hotel in Greece or any other island that could compare to the standards that Royal Marmin Bay has to offer. Thank you to the rest of the staff at Royal Marmin Bay for such a wonderful experience and we will see you next year!! 🤟
