Very friendly staff in the whole complex. There was no problems communicating.Starters and desserts were great, the main courses were not five star hotel ( unfortunately!).Had the first 2 nights in a suite, simply amazing! Then we stayed for 7 nights in a double room seaside (508) a indescribable view. Very good furnishingA great complex. You feel like in a small village. The view from the restaurant, the bar, the pool and from our room (508 ) was wonderful. What the guests is concerned, there are about 80% Russian, 10% German and 10% american people in the hotel.

The hotel is very much off the beaten track. There is no neighboring hotels and no discos nearby. If you just want to relax, without the crowds of nearby is, the perfect hotel. No children, almost only couple, to my time German, Russian and British guests. The hotel complex is built like a small village. There is a fresh water- and a salt water pool, as well as several small pools between the individual accommodations, but neglect can (no one has used). Food was fine ( desserts not really great). The beach is very rocky. Walk in you can only roughly. … read more

Stops unfortunately not, what ( in our opinion and experience) from a five-star hotel should be offered. We often had to inadequate ftate in our room report, they were quickly fixed, but a mängelaufnahme by the guest should five star hotel not happen. The dinner ( in our opinion and experience) was very unimaginative and unlovingly presented, to ensure we do not each evening on the bad ( in our opinion and experience) half board to annoy, are we nearly each evening in one of the beautiful restaurants in panormo or Rethymnon dangers.

In comparison to other reviews here I could nothing of slackness of the service team notice, on the contrary! Very friendly, courteous, very speedy and dining experienced waiter ( serviertechnik etc.) , also noticed, which one always ordered ( for example Cappuccino for breakfast, glass beer or wine evenings...) Good assorted mini-market. Priced okay, mineral water in the 6-pack 1.80 Euro, I was really surprised!OK for a buffet-restaurant. What was possible, here done. Clearly, that meat drying tasted, if it is a bit in the hotplate is, despite small portions and attentive staff, the always on time trimming nachfüllten. Springing the … read more
