Absolutely fabulous. We travelled as a family and it was our 1st time in Crete and an adults only Hotel, our whole experience was outstanding from the moment we arrived at the hotel till the day of leaving. The staff went above and beyond to help us with our stay. Everything was great and the hotel staff were very friendly. I would definitely recommend the hotel and will go back again.

Insula Alba is mostly just really pretty.

My first experience from the Insula Alba was the reception. As I entered with my suitcases, the older of the receptionists rushed to me, panicky looking, and with voice raised let me know that I must leave my luggage outside. After asking for my and the wife's passports, she again, worried looking, told me I can't enter dinner 'like this'. I was wearing flip flops and a sleeveless shirt (like some summer tourist in Crete, go figure). It's okay to convey this information, but the way she approached me from the first moment was anything but welcoming. It was more like my presence was soiling her lobby. Other than that, service was good. The room is basic for the price, but spacious. There were very okward chairs in the living room, not comfy at all. Bed was decent. Bathroom and shower as well. Dinner had a very wide variety, but the overall quality and taste was below your average taverna on the street (admittedly a high standard to begin with in Greece). Bright spots were plenty of fresh vegetables, and excellent desserts. We didn't have a chance to try breakfast. The hotel is beautiful, especially the pool area. Overall this hotel is more than decent, but for the price I paid, I feel there were better in Crete.

All was really amazing! The service, the staff so kind and the food. The only thing is that our room with the exit to sharing pool has always shadow on our area of the pool and was not available rooms to switch.
