The hotel's location is unique nice. Especially have all rooms view of the sea, also for traveling alone. The employees and people are so nice and friendly concerned the guests a pleasant stay to ready. I was with sister and brother-in-law because, alone it would have been however then again too quiet, unless you are really in need of relaxation. Perhaps it is in the peak season different. read more

Wonderful location in a wonderful bay with its own beach. That was it but also already. The food was, except for the grill evenings one time per week at the monday, everything but enjoyable. We stayed in the 2. Week convenient to the dinner and in the tavern in istro dining. As it was however very tasty and good value for money. For breakfast found also no variation instead of. From day to day the same scrambled eggs, the same two sorts sausage and cheese, after nothing at all tasted. No fresh juice. Coffee cold and thin. The hotel management ... should urgently a other chef effort.
The Island of Crete is beautiful. There is many beautiful corners with the best rental car to explore. read more

The hotel is located in beautiful bay with clean sand/gravel beach. The view of the rooms is simply paradisiac and you will enjoy a wonderful peace. The rooms (we have locally the superior room against an extra charge taken), older classic furniture, very big, approximately 20 meters² large terrace, very good mattresses and on the patio too nice seating, beach chairs and umbrella. Absolutely great! The room would be cleaned daily. The audience was international, few children., between 20 to 75. thank god no chairs on the beach dauerbelegt, there were always some free. Breakfast was it was ok for ... greek standards, and for the stars of the hotel. Dinner we did every day the beach restaurant were eaten. Wide selection of salads and warm starters, all delicious were. With main course and dessert, you could under 3 different dishes and tasted very good! read more

The hotel lies at a very nice Bay and is almost 'constructed in the mountain'. The view over the sea to to Agios Nikolaos is simply nicer. The small beach in front of the hotel fits well in the bay. There is a direct hotel entrance. We stayed in a bungalow, the sufficiently large and well equipped was. However gnawed everywhere the tooth the time. In particular the bathroom needs to be renovated. The pool ( sea water) was nice and big, but also in need of renovation. However the water is clean. However the complex looks after the apparently ... many Nutzungsjahren run-down. Disappointing we have the food felt. As tenant a bungalows give you the permission, in the restaurant ' Meltimi ' to food. Tenant the 'normal' room dishes in the main restaurant, in the also the breakfast served. Optically the restaurants very attractive. The kitchen was however always a disappointment. Although the food was always matter of taste. Our taste however a whole week long not been taken, was disappointing. There is a starters buffet and then a Menüwauswahl as a main entrance. The dishes were bad seasoned and partly not enjoyable. The excessive use of bold came erschwerden oppositionally. It is veilful us, that the kitchen ( according to travel guide) once a star will have.
Altogether is the hotel complex quite successful and optically attractive. There is however a clearly identifiable Instandhaltungsrückstand. We had the impression, that you this hotel really could do, if it initially once and a complete makeover through would. Furthermore should the kitchen be improved. It would be the hotel for us a recommendation. In the current condition and with this kitchen we would not recommend it. read more

The hotel Istron Bay is distinguished by one absolutely one-time location, wonderful view of the sea by all rooms, very attentive, friendly and competent staff and very good cuisine.
The garden is beautifully, with old trees and very big, the pool approximately 30 meters long. The beach is wonderful!
The fact that when you every stay under the guests known from earlier years-so also
Regular customers - speaks for itself.
Can only be recommended for a quiet, relaxing vacation! read more

We were not for the first time in the hotel and very satisfied as ever, over small faults, there is no new hotel,
We look away. We like the large garden, where one always a ruheplätzchen finds. Praise is the very friendly staff.
Recommendable also the car rental istron top Cars in the hotel. Very well maintained Vehicles, reliable delivery at the airport and good information for excursions. read more

the stay in the hotel was a disaster. It was the last week before the end of the season, but for a four star hotel can they not such a breakfast and food. It was awful. The statement of the staff it is the air, which weren't acceptable. Then you will need to close just a week earlier, if the cook has no real desire to work we complained to management. They vow at the improvement. Otherwise, the hotel is actually correct. If you're looking for peace and tranquility is very well served read more

Us the hotel has for our excursions in the eastern part the island pleased. The hotel is very peaceful, no annoying entertainment. The hotel is, for children, also well suitably, because the sea from the beach only slowly deeper. A car you should already have, nearby the hotel, there is nothing, to istro you need on foot about 20 minutes the shopping facilities are enough. In the hotel shop you can also cheap buy water. Parking at the hotel are plentiful and free. It pleased us in the very good hotel pleased. read more

Per:
Proximity to the beautiful beach, balcony and view of the sea from the same.
Front desk staff was friendly and spoke good English or German.
Cons:
-Localization 'in the middle of nowhere', to the next larger town of Agios Nikolaos, with the bus connections rather bad, at night you have to take a taxi back (20 €).
-Half kilometer away next tavern about.
Food (we had half board) in particular in the evening often inedible; the vegetarian dishes were always with a sauce of tomatoes 'Mediterranean ' basis, or whether Pita apetizer. The fish was always around tropical fish ... cheap, pangasius or Dornhai. Local fish were only for a fee to have.
The staff in the restaurant was, at best, neutral (friendly) voted, in front of the grimmigen view of a certain waiter could get only in security, if you don't put in his area.
Air conditioning was absolutely insufficient, atmosphere in the room a bit dusty.
Conclusion: we paid for seven nights, but after the fifth night 'fled'. They asked us not to the 'why'. read more

The hotel of an older year of construction corresponded completely to our conceptions. The staff was always a high level of cleanliness in the room, the pool and the beach, as well as in the whole hotel area made an effort. The breakfast was adequate and the snack bars reasonably priced. Price/performance ratio very good! The hotel's leisure activities left to be desired from time to time, but the hotel convinced with theme buffets and barbeque. Sport and leisure facilities were available, had ordered and paid for. For those in search of peace vacationers a recommended familiar, small hotel. Not ... bad, we'll be back! read more

The hotel is clean and reasonably maintained, can from the facilities but not with new plants compete.
The hotel's own beach with tide and waves very narrow, the einbetonierten sun screens can not be moved, so that the chair of the overflow ocean is ( unfortunately up to the amount of spaces for sunbeds).
'highlight' was the several times daily was cleaning of the water by a motorboat, that. Eliminate waste/paper with the help of a Netztes from the water fished. The invisible leftovers you preferred not think.
The service was very diverse, sometimes you accommodating treated, partially the staff ... were/ management simply only unfriendly. read more

On the beach there is a small school with a very nice and entertaining places, called Tassos. He is very experienced and has a lot of interesting things to say! He speaks very good English and also understood German.
The equipment was not so extensive, therefor, but still in good condition.
Furthermore, he has a 200 HP dinghy, which provides a interesting spots brings diving (for example cave diving).
The rooms are spacious, well equipped and clean.
However, we are, so at night some bugs came to light.
Rental car is a must to interesting places to see on the ... island! read more
