Great Hotel outside of Heraklion

This was a terrific hotel about 25 kilometers out of Heraklion. It was fine for us because we had a car and the driving easy. The hotel was walking distance down the hill Agia Pelagia which is a cute little beach town. We ate at the hotel restaurant one night and were pleasantly surprised at the overall quality of the dishes we had- way better than a hotel restaurant usually is. The staff was great and the breakfast buffet was very good. If you are planning a trip to Knossos and the Archeological Museum this is a good option. It was nice to get back to the quiet of an out of town hotel. The only downside is they are trying to hard to be kitschy which is totally unnecessary for such a quality property. We loved it all in all

Small resort on the hill overlooking the sea. New pool is sweet. We had a hot tub room, which was perfect. We overheard others with saying the private pools were too cold to hang out in. Breakfast was delicious. Walking to the beach town nearby was fun. Roads are very narrow and dark at night. It’s easy to get a cab back to the hotel.

This is by far the nicest hotel and location we have ever stayed. Seriously. We arrived to our beautiful room and found a hand written note from management with chilled champagne and sweets. We were stunned by the sunsets over the water of the ocean and the amazing pools! The food was very good in the restaurant and the breakfast buffet was excellent. This is a destination location!
