Casa di Cornaro ★★★

"The hotel is very close to the pier. The store service is very good, and I notified in advance how to take the key into the room. So although it was very late to the hotel, everything went smoothly into the room. The room is modernly decorated, very clean and comfortable, that is, the bed has a platform to climb up and down. Stayed for one night and was quite satisfied."

Ella Rocrita ★★★★

"We absolutely loved our stay at Rocrita Resort in Crete! The hotel is around 1.5 hours from Heraklion Airport and is surrounded by beautiful mountains. I loved how peaceful and secluded it felt, and the views were breath-taking every day. The private beach was one of the best beaches I have ever visited. Our room was wonderful, and we were even given a complimentary upgrade to a swim-up room. We loved having direct access to the pool and being able to use it whenever we wanted. The staff were absolutely amazing! Everyone was so warm and friendly. I especially loved how they remembered me whenever I visited or simply walked past them. Their service made our stay feel very special. Special shout out to Kim, Maria, George and the staff by the main pool bar! They were amazing. The food was also incredible. We visited the Italian à la carte restaurant, and it was genuinely some of the best Italian food I have ever had. Once again, the service was excellent. It was an unforgettable holiday, and I would absolutely love to return!"

Casa di Mare ★★★

Ella Rocrita ★★★★

"Absolute joke of a hotel. We booked to stay for 29th July 2025. As of February 25, we started to see worrying signs of people who had booked for May, having their trips cancelled as the hotel wasn't going to be ready. I contacted the hotel reservations to be told the hotel will be fully open by the start of July. I again contacted them in April to be told yes, everything will still be ready for July. Today, 21 May 2025, I have received an email from my booking company saying the hotel is closed until 2026 and they are offering me a different hotel which looks nowhere near as good. Absolutely disgraceful, leaving it so late that we will struggle to find a new hotel to accommodate all our family at such short notice."

Amenities: Everything you need for a comfortable stay—reliable Wi-Fi, good air conditioning, and lovely pool area. Some great local dining options are also just a short walk away. Overall: A hidden gem in eastern Crete. Perfect for travelers who want authenticity, tranquility, and a beautiful seaside setting."

Lithos Traditional Guest Houses ★★★★★

"Staying at Lithos Traditional Houses was an unforgettable experience that perfectly blended comfort, authenticity, and Cretan charm. The property is beautifully designed, with traditional stone architecture and warm rustic details that make you feel immersed in the island’s history and culture. At the same time, all the modern amenities are there to ensure total relaxation and convenience. The houses are spotlessly clean, spacious, and thoughtfully decorated, offering both privacy and stunning views of the surrounding landscape. Waking up to the sight of the mountains and the tranquility of the village was truly special. What really sets Lithos apart, though, is the hospitality. The hosts are incredibly welcoming, attentive, and genuinely eager to make your stay memorable. From offering local tips and recommendations to small touches that made us feel at home, their care and kindness elevated the whole experience. The location is also excellent—peaceful and authentic, yet within easy reach of beaches, hiking trails, and traditional tavernas. It’s the perfect base whether you want to explore the island or simply unwind and enjoy the serene atmosphere. In short, Lithos Traditional Houses captures the very best of Crete: tradition, beauty, and heartfelt hospitality. We left feeling refreshed, grateful, and already planning our return."

Terra Minoika Boutique Resort ★★★★

"I have been to Terra Minoika from the 9th till the 14th July. I was there with my wife and my 12yo son. I have no words to describe the excellent stay we experienced in our 5 days at Terra Minoika. I need to mention the spectacular view from our room (Deluxe Suite) and the tasty breakfast. The room interior and the hotel in general are simply perfect! Thank you Hope to see you again in the future! Kind regards from Leonardo, Silvia and Niccolò"

GM Luxury Suites & Spa ★★★★

Hiona Holiday Hotel ★★★

"This hotel was perfect for what we needed. We wanted to visit Sitea region and in particular, Via beach, so perfectly situated. A short five min walk To the town square with plenty of tavernas to choose from. The hotel itself was spotless clean, room very comfortable , however, it was supposed to be a superior double and I have never seen a smaller balcony in all my travels !! That aside, we were warmly welcomed and shown to our room which was spacious enough, with everything we needed. I did ask for the use of an iron and was told that they had none!! Breakfast was lovely, with plenty to choose from. Excellent value for money. Some parking in hotel grounds too !"
