Ella Rocrita

"We stayed at Ella Rocrita from 23rd–30th July 2026 as a family of four (2 adults and 2 children aged 6 and 4) in a Junior Sea View Suite on an all-inclusive basis. Overall, we had a fantastic, relaxing holiday and would happily recommend the resort to families. The Highlights The standout feature for us was the food. We’ve stayed at a lot of all-inclusive resorts over the years, and this was probably the best buffet we’ve experienced. The quality, freshness and variety were consistently excellent throughout the week. Another huge positive was the availability of sunbeds. There was no need for the usual early morning race to reserve loungers, and with several pools spread around the resort it never felt overcrowded. The all-inclusive drinks were also a pleasant surprise, with a good selection of premium branded spirits rather than the usual local alternatives. Our children absolutely loved the pools. There was plenty of variety with different depths, which allowed them to build their confidence in the water throughout the week. The main beach pool had a particularly nice atmosphere, with a DJ playing chilled Ibiza-style music during the day, giving it a relaxed holiday vibe without being overwhelming. Our Junior Sea View Suite was comfortable and well maintained. Any minor issues we had were dealt with quickly, and the coffee pods were replenished daily, which was a nice touch. The kids’ club also deserves a mention. Sessions were available morning, afternoon or all day. We chose to send our girls for a few afternoons, and they genuinely wanted to go back each day—which says everything. A Few Downsides The resort is quite large, so be prepared for plenty of walking. It’s mostly downhill towards the beach and uphill back to reception, which may be worth bearing in mind if you have young children or mobility issues. The bar and pool staff work incredibly hard and always remained friendly, but they could really do with a few more team members during busy periods. The lifeguards were perhaps a little overzealous at times. We completely understand banning large inflatables and lilo-style floats, but preventing our 6 and 4-year-old from using simple flotation rings seemed a little unnecessary. If you’d like to eat in the à la carte restaurants, book them as soon as you arrive. Availability is limited and they fill up quickly. Finally, we experienced several overnight power cuts during our stay. Obviously this isn’t the hotel’s fault, but when the power returned all the lights in the room came back on, which wasn’t ideal with two young children asleep. Overall Despite a few minor niggles, we had a wonderful family holiday. The excellent food, quality facilities, relaxed atmosphere and child-friendly pools made for a genuinely enjoyable and restful week. We’d certainly consider returning."

Elounda Akti Olous (Adults Only)

"We’ve just arrived home after a 10 night stay at Akti Olous, and we had a lovely stay. The hotel is in a great position, right on the coast. There is a beach for people station in the hotel as well as members of the public. There are also a tonne of great restaurants that are all walking distance, and there is a supermarket literally 1 minute walk away. We stayed on a bed and breakfast basis. Breakfast was great, loads of choice (cold meats/cheeses, pastries, hot options). The hotel is lovely, super clean in all areas and staff are so helpful. We did feel a little short changed with our room - it was really really small, and a little outdated. When booking, I was given the option to choose a sea view or standard room - we didn’t upgrade so went with the standard room. When we checked in, we’d been allocated a garden view room - except the view was of a residential garden. It did mean it limited our use of the balcony slightly as we felt like we were intruding on the residents garden. I would also recommend booking a late check out if possible - we used the courtesy room and it was not in a great state. Would’ve rather paid the extra money to keep our room."

Elounda Heights (Adults Only)

"Elounda Heights is a family run hotel, set high on the side of a hill occupying an absolutely magnificent position overlooking Mirabello Bay, with spectacular sea and mountain views that set the tone for an utterly relaxing stay. We stayed in one of the brand-new air-conditioned Mirabello Suites with private pool and patio, complete with a small kitchenette, spacious walk-in rain shower, wash basin and organic toiletries. The beds are among the most comfortable we have ever slept in. Breakfasts by the pool, overlooking Mirabello Bay, are varied and very tasty. The homemade jams are not to be missed! In the evening George prepares homemade, traditional daily specials which are delicious. The accommodation throughout was very clean and comfortable. The gardens are well-tended which added to the tranquillity of the hotel. What truly elevates Elounda Heights is the staff: Natalia, Kostas, Katerina (the Cocktail Queen!), Sinead, Christina, Ritsa and every member of staff go out of their way to ensure every guest has a wonderful experience. Their warmth, friendliness and attention to detail make all the difference."

Faedra Beach

"The room, place, food, beach is excellent. Manus and Asimina were the best host we ever had experienced. We will be coming again to the place and we highly recommend the place to visit a place just like a paradise"

Ariadne Beach - Adults Only

Almyra Hotel & Village

"Best resort ever with the nicest people. The service is perfect, the resort is clean, the sea is gorgeous and the food is delicious. So full on best experience you would ever have."

Enorme Santanna Beach

"Varasin yliopiston uintihuoneessa ajattelen, että voisin nauttia näkymässä uima-allas. Ei varjoakaan lounasta lähtien. - Hyvä on. - Keskimääräinen päivällinen."

Tylissos Beach Hotel - Adults Only

"We wanted to stay 8 nights in this hotel and were so looking forward to our holiday but unfortunately got so disappointed!!! The hotel looks like an old airport hotel not at all like the pictures. The included drinks are a joke. It’s cheap syrup coke (no Coke Zero at the beach bar included, but you can buy it lol) and other Softdrinks. Wine is from a tetra pack and the food wasn’t really good either. The worst part was that our room had a really bad view and our shower wasn’t working properly. But they did not let us change our room. It’s also on a very busy road you have to cross to get to the beach. all in all we were very disappointed and sad that we had this experience. We left after 3 nights."

Du Lac

"Generaly we enjoyed our stay in DuLac and Agios Nikolaos.We had a room on the lake side wich was simple, clean and nice with a incrediblle view with the only disadvantage being the bathroom wich was small, We felt that the price we paid was appropriate for the quality of the room. The reception lady was nice, kind and helpfull even though she said it was her 3rd or 4th week at the job, but her colleague with visible face tattos and dressing code that is not sutable not only in a hotel but any job in our opinion, made us a negative impresion.He appeared distracted, spending time on his phone sitting in the lobby couch with his feet on the table, which made it difficult to receive assistance (or asking for assistance when you see behaviour like that). Our overall experience in the hotel and in city of Agios nikolaos was nice it seems like a beatiful place wich has a lot to offer."

Harmony E Rock - Adults Friendly 16 Plus

"New and beautiful property, just off the main road. Magnificient pool and small open-air gym. Walk to the beach - approx 10 min. Staff are very polite and happy to assist. Food could be improved to include more vegetarian and local options. Great value for money."

Castello Boutique Resort & Spa - Adults Only

"This is more a 4-Star hotel. Rooms are well equipped but the whole environment does not breath the extra star they claim. The first days all sun bed’s already claimed in the morning, while in the welcome letter it’s requested not to do. Walking through the hotel to our room in the back, the smell of the sewer was not very nice, and was there every day, so structural problem. The staff is very friendly and makes sure you can relax."
