Mr & Mrs Smith

Exceptional service from the friendly staff - they even provided a speedboat trip to Spinalonga early in the morning so we could beat the crowds. Cannot recommend the spa and the seafront resturant highly enough. Very family-friendly place - all the staff were very warm and clearly loved having children around. Best thing about the hotel was the room, number. 212, with a great view of the sea.

Music choices in the bar and poolside were quite odd and kind of tacky for such a nice hotel - they could do with some advice on their playlist. Food in the pool bar and buffet restaurant is very average, Smith members will want to avoid this and head to the seafront restaurant. Would be great to have either a shuttle service or footpath to the nearby village of Plaka, the road is too dangerous to walk at night and having to get taxis is a bit of a hassle.

Thallos resturant in Plaka for amazing food, great service and cute kittens.

The hotel was absolutely perfect, no complaints whatsoever, we were made to feel very welcome. We loved the hotel’s own beach restaurant ‘1910’.
But a great little find is worth the 15 minute walk into Plaka, the nearby town; some great little traditional tavernas here, but our favourite, and highly recommended by the locals, is the beach restaurant there: Ostria. Charming traditional restaurant with amazing view, and the most fantastic fresh fish, traditional Greek dishes and friendly staff.
