Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests frequently highlight the hotel's great location with direct beach access, and many appreciate being within a comfortable 15-minute walk to Chania port and close to restaurants. The apartments often feature spacious balconies with sea views, some even including jacuzzies, alongside well-equipped kitchens and reliable air conditioning. While some have noted that the sun loungers on the beach incur an extra charge (€10 for two with an umbrella), the hotel also offers free sun loungers by the pool and has a beach restaurant with large portions at reasonable prices.
