Lovely compact hotel. Start of season so town isn't really open yet. You don't need to go anywhere else, as the hotel covers you for food and drink. Staff are really friendly and always have a smile, more so if you try and speak Greek. Nice for locals to hear the effort being made. They speak about 4 - 5 languages anyway. The room was bigger than we thought it would be, with a massive bed. Firm but comfortable. Plenty of wardrobe space. Small fridge. Kettle, as well as a coffee pod machine. TV, which we never bother with. Free WiFi. Bathroom is a nice size with shower over bath. Toiletries are local, Olive oil based and fantastic. May have brought some home..... Spotlessly clean, housekeeping are a credit. Nothing to complain about but there are a few finishing touches (bathroom joints) that aren't quite right. Not really an issue though. Not worth complaining about. We went for shared pool sea view room. Nice to use our own pool but you're pretty much on the beach. Say 10mtrs away from where our room was (209). Pool was cold (not heated) but it was early May. Sea was cold too but both manageable once you're in. Lovely bit of snorkeling if you go to the rocky wave breakers. Beach is pebble and shingle. Recommend water shoes. Parts are sandy but not much. Plenty of choice for food, amazing tastes. Should be something you can eat. Only one setting where I didn't fancy much on the menu, but I managed. Save room for dessert as they are also fantastic. I've gained a lot of weight this week. The a la carte restaurant is also very good, if you don't want to be bombarded with choice and wish to be served. Had a gorgeous bottle of wine from a monastery in the east of Crete. The drinks are very good, you know you've had a drink. Wine comes in a mid sized bottle (2 large glasses ish) and is local and very palateable, whether red, white or rosé. Local beer is about on par with Carling etc. You can upgrade to All Inc plus and get Mythos, Peroni equivalent. Cocktails are really nice, my wife loves the Pina Colada. They don't do Mojito on the all Inc. But you can pay extra for certain drinks. All the staff were amazing, I won't name them all. But reception, bar staff, waiting staff, chefs, cleaners and yes even management. Always had time to chat and joke and practice my Greek. Nothing on during the day, but its a chill out place, make your own entertainment. Start of season, maybe more to come? Evenings had various shows on. Violinist on Fridays, we were knackered, our first day, so didn't stay up too late but he was very good. Would've like him to play again in the week. The town is relatively flat so not much bother for the less able. Nice little harbour to look around. The Monastery is well worth a visit. €3 pp. Looks good and reveals its history once you look around. Don't forget, women have to cover their legs and shoulders. Be respectful. Just outside the monastery is Bambi zoo. Just a small fenced off area where deer are kept. Seem well looked afte
