My family and I enjoyed a fabulous stay at this beautiful 5 star resort in Crete this week! We loved that we could walk straight from our room to the water. The food on offer at the buffet breakfast was healthy, fresh and locally produced. The genuine warmth and hospitality from all of the hotel staff was what made the experience so special and memorable. Oh, and did I mention the complimentary yoga and pilates classes AND mid week cocktail party! Suffice to say, we can't wait to return!
