Amazing stay, loved every second. However, could improve on the lunch timings - as it is too close to breakfast and too far from dinner which can leave you hungry for a while & the snack options are very limited.

Room was kept clean, the cleaners are so friendly as were the pool/bar staff as well as spa. Emma the spa manager was lovely as was our therapist Dimirta. The receptionist Marta was absolutely rude on arrival and her attitude during our check in and room assignment was just shocking. The manager was able to correct and give us an alternative room which was what we paid for. Sea view room. The hotel should give guests complimentary late checkout especially when they are not so busy. The hotel is beautiful and the food did not fail during our half board stay. The soft drinks are overpriced but there is a local spa which is more affordable.

Excellent location. Beautiful property. Wonderful staff. Really enjoyed all 3 pools, the nearby beach, and everything within walking distance! My room type should not have been listed as it is “ Dazzling Blue Sea View Outdoor Hot Tub”. It is a ground floor room directly facing a fairly busy pedestrian street. Flip up blinds were closed the entire stay, so this room doesn’t truly offer even a peak view of the ocean, let alone a “dazzling blue sea view”. Had a great time while in Crete, but wish they would market this room type honestly, as it was disappointing and I think false.

The Akasha Resort, made the reservation a year ago this was our first stay, from the front desk at check in, to check out there were greetings with smiles, even a (hug). Great suggestions for a quick bite, in walking distance, (food was delicious). Our bags were in our spotless room by the time we opened the door. The buffet was delicious and diverse. The service in the buffet, pool, and beach were excellent. We can’t wait to come back and hope to stay longer then 5 days. This is most definitely a 5 star Resort.
