This was our second visit to Caldera Creta Paradise as we enjoyed it so much the first time round In 2024. 2025 for us was just as good! Similar to 2024 we upgraded 1 room to a family swim up, which is always fantastic for the kids and adults too! Since 2024 there had been an upgrade with a water park, which is great, you can get drinks there via the all Inclusive, kids was free, adults are €15 pp. During the busy periods there was limited 2 person rubber rings. But this is a great addition. I feel the Complex would benefit to some a la carte restaurants, as the food was rather repetitive, although every night was a different theme, there is also a snack bar downstairs for drinks food ice creams, which is good. The arcade games room could do with updating, and potentially more variety. The beach is nice and close too! Sun beds need updating. Overall a great holiday, great staff, and would recommend!
