Expert's review
Now, we love a good five-star family-friendly hotel, so much so that we just had to go to Crete and check out this one ourselves. And let me tell you… this place is fabulous! Not only is it designed like a palace, with rooms that are so nice you won’t want to leave, but there’s SO much that really does make you feel like royalty when staying here. There’s a beach across the road, with an all-inclusive beach bar on serving gyros, salads and toasties (the best snacks for sunbathing, in my opinion) and the fact it’s all-inclusive is just *chef’s kiss*. If you’re looking for fun, there’s a DJ on all day at the activity pool area, where you’ll also find a creperie serving sweet and savoury treats and a whopping 18 different flavours of ice cream!! One thing I loved though, is that there’s an adult-only champagne bar too, so if you want to sneak off and enjoy some quiet time with your partner, glass of bubbly in hand, then you can!
Hotel highlights
24-hour Ultra All Inclusive service (it’s amazing).
You have 9 dining options and 5 bars to choose from!

There’s a unique lagoon that runs through the hotel grounds, giving the resort a stunning Cretan village atmosphere.

Did you know?
The beach by the hotel has wooden walkways around it and has shallow entrances to the sea, which is great for swimmers. If you’re on holiday with a friend or partner, there’s an adult-only section of the beach for you to relax and unwind. Or, if you’re there with your little ones, there’s a shop by the beach selling inflatables, sun cream and beach goodies for non-stop fun!
