Where to stay in Kalyves

Is in a relaxing area with beachfront views and includes 3 restaurants and 2 heated pools nice and r laxing hotel we will come again for sure!

In general great place to stay with small children, great facilities, fun events for children. Swimming pools are anyone can desire, outside, inside non heated, inside heated. If one wants beach that is also available, sandy ***** is just 500m away to the side if necessary. Staff is really polite and helpful, buffet all inclusive food is not boring and selection can satisfy most i am sure. Rooms are...

Great value for money. Friendly staff. Chef Ram was amazing with customized pizzas.

We had a great family vacation there. The rooms were clean, and there was a wide variety of food and activities. Great location and value for money and we will definitely return!!

Good holiday but lots to improve The hotel is good. They claim to be five star but in my opinion unfortunately it's three or three and a half. They are not aiming at high quality - they have potential for so much more. Good: pool, gym, sport options, beach, room size, friendly reception staff, some restaurant staff was also really nice, lots of beach chairs. Ok: food (lacking flavor a bit but otherwise...

Good resort for families w/ babies or kids 4+ The resort is great for families with babies OR kids 4+ years. It was a huge disappointment for us that our daughter who turns 4 in two months couldn’t attend any of the kids’ club activities, even if we would’ve stayed with her. So there was not much to do, considering we visited in April when only the indoor pool was heated (mildly, still cold in my opinion...

Really pleasant stay. Can't fault anything really location amazing children's disco daily. Nice rooms clean and comfortable bed. We were all inclusive but midway we upgraded to all inclusive plus as the drinks weren't great but that is pretty typical for all inclusive so no issues there. Also thanks to the staff as asked to organise some flowers etc for my wife for our anniversary and really lovely...

We had an absolutely wonderful experience. The location couldn’t be better — just a short walk to the beach. The rooms were spacious and beautifully decorated, with a great view of the sea from the balcony. The staff made sure everything was perfect, from the friendly check-in to helpful local recommendations. The buffet had a great variety of tasteful choices. It’s clear that the management really...

I came here for one day on a charged for day pass costing 32 euros. I caught the bus from Chania. What a TREAT! I was allowed to use the indoor and outdoor pools beteen 10 am until 6 pm. I arrived around 12 noon, just in time for lunch "EAT AND DRINK AS MUCH AS YOU LIKE" FROM AN EXTENSIVE AND EXOTIC BUFFET. I chose the outdoor dining area overlooking a river with ducks that runs into the sea I am...

The hotel is literally on the beach, which made our stay even more special. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with a wonderful view of the sea. The staff was kind and helpful in our every need, especially Kostas the lifeguard. The breakfast and dinner and the launch had variety and quality food.access to the beach was direct. Ideal place for rest and relaxation. We will definitely come back next...

Location 10 out of 10 Food 10 out of 10 Relaxing holiday on the beach. Unfortunately it was stomach bug in the hotel and our son had it. Hotel stuff dealt with this problem as much as they could. Not much to do around the hotel. Done train trip and boat trip. We had a car so we had a trip to the lake, old town, supermarket

lovely weather, good entertainment, hotel room is nice, nice people, beach was nice aswell, i loved the cats , really enjoyed myself here

Fantastic owner, simple and clean with all what you need, original decorations, great location 50m from beach, restaurants, large public parking around 60m away. On Friday and Saturday night loud music from the city center.

Everything was great, nice friendly atmosphere, definitely we will be back soon!

Near the beach with good view of it. Prices are ok.

Great family owned hotel. We had nice large apartment with sea view. Our apartment and all hotel facilities were very clean. Hotel is just few meters from the nice sandy beach. Owner is very nice person and very helpful :) we had a great stay!

Very nice place, close to a beautiful beach, close by good price efficient food. The rooms are clean and nicly equipped. Awesome and very friendly staff. We will be back :) My only "complaint": I like softer beds more

A simple, cozy place, but in a great location and very quiet. Very close to the beach; it is ideal as a base for visiting the western part of Crete and returning to a quiet place every evening. Recommended.

Quiet place and spotless rooms. Beach at a distance of 50m

Beautiful, clean, tidy and with view rooms. The owners are very polite and so helpful..!! The beach is organized, clean and only 20 meters away..

Very good and clean hotel in Kalyves, crete.

This is an amazing hotel. Our hotel room was very spacious with a private pool overlooking the beautiful Creatian sea. The hotel is clean, the staff is very friendly and helpful. It is very neatly located at a hill very close to restaurants and bars. The sea and the beach are literally just a stone throw away. The food in the hotel restaurant is great. The hotel is definitely not crowded as it has...

I visit my cousin who is working there and we had dinner with my friend at the restaurant. The view of Almyrida beach and the village from the restaurant was very beautiful and peaceful. Also the menu and the plates were very tasteful and in another level. The service very professional.

10/10 hotel! The staff were very helpful and friendly at all times. The room was beautiful with a private pool, and breakfast offered every morning.

Just returned from our stay in Blue Elephant and would like to give kudos to all of the staff who helped to make it so memorable. Our room was perfect and we had the most amazing views! The hotel is clean, room was always cleaned daily and the food in the restaurant was so tasty. There is plenty of parking if you choose to hire a car. The hotel is not too busy, with plenty of sun beds available. The...

Simply amazing! We stayed there for 2 weeks last September and we enjoyed it very very much. They gave us a room upgrade so we had a private pool to ourselves and a beautiful view over the ocean. Also, our room was so nice, modern and huge. It’s a beautiful hotel, so well maintained, super clean, great service, great food. The breakfast is plentiful and full of choices, the breakfast room has such...

Such a lovely hotel with really good sized rooms! Really kind and helpful staff which is always great. There a lots of restaurant nearby which are at the beach but it I would recommend also going further out to explore as there are lots of lovely beaches to visit. Overall we really enjoyed our stay, it was very relaxing and peaceful.

I stayed here for one week at the end of September, the weather was amazing a lot hotter than what I thought it would be. We stayed all inclusive which was great. The location is in a local area and had a few shops but amazing restaurants which were very cheap to eat in. The beach is a five minute walk however walking back there is a hill. You are able to rent out cars and explore the area more. The...

Hotel has so much potential. Pool area and restaurant are lovely, staff are very friendly and the rooms are clean but weren’t cleaned in the 4 nights we stayed. The whole place just needs a bit investment as the location and the views are amazing and Almirida town is beautiful and so cheap. Food in the restaurant is very limited but breakfast was nice. We were half board and changed from dinner to...

A quite basic hotel. Comfortable beds. Friendly staff. A little bit worn (our shower didn't work as intended). Cleaning okay, but they didn't change our towels all week, until last day when we asked about it. Breakfast could be improved by having more kinds of bread. Located about 10 minutes walk from the beach.

Great rooms. Very tidy! The pool is excellent and the food is great for a three star hotel. Not recommended if you want a pulsating city life since it is located in a small village

Breakfast buffet was good. Had everything you'd want and with good quality. Lunch was fine, a la carte. Dinner is very good with a four course menu every night (one starter, one main course, one pasta and a dessert). All served in small appetizing portions. There's also a children's buffet. Room on second floor in main building was spartanly furnished. Two rickety night stands, one desk that almost...

place, nice accomodation, with direct access to the pool from the balcony. Cool atmosphere with many families accepting children noise. Fast communication with the owner. Easy to park in the street

An ideal hotel for unforgettable holidays! Super clean, modern and well - organized! The owners are kind and friendly to all the customers! A place that deserves a visit!

Good clean hotel. Stopped for 1 night at short notice. Very welcoming. Lovely pool. 5 min walk from the beach. I recommend 👍

Beautiful apartments, super clean, modern, and well fitted out. Cleaned daily. Owners very nice, nothing too much trouble. Excellent private pool. Very quiet, 100 metres from beach front.

It's a lovely place to stay near beach but not a lot of entertainment at night quiet place but bit pricey bus to chains right next to hotel beutiful place see 5 minute walk away too

A real, genuine, friendly welcome. Great apartments and pool in convenient village location. It's all good!

Stayed for 10 nights end September into October in a studio . Very big with everything you could need , small kitchen supplied with washing liquid , dining table , hairdryer , iron and board . Large tiled bathroom with shower over bath . Comfortable twin beds , cleaned to a high standard every day . Effective & quiet air conditioning included . Maybe the furniture is a little old fashioned but given...

What a fabulous place to stay, in the heart of the resort, close to Tavernas and supermarket , gift shops and jewellers. beautiful clean rooms , great food and drinks and the most amazing owners who treat you as family. Antonis and Anna go out of their way to make your stay perfect we can’t wait to return

Absolutely fantastic place. Antonis and his wife saved our holiday after jet2 kindly lost our daughters suitcase(still hasn’t turned up!). Great pool, lovely apartment, so clean. Pool bar brilliant with great snacks and meals. Defo be going back sometime 💜💜💜

I have been living in this area for the past 34 years so am familiar with all available accommodation. Gianna Apartments are the best for the money! The buildings are immaculately clean andthe grounds and pools are well kept. My room was wonderful with everything so clean, well provisioned and contained all I could need. The manage, Adonis and his wife, Anna were so friendly and accommodating,...

Stunning place. Fantastic hospitality. Near everything. Definitely going back.

Excellent apartments, clean tidy and a lovely pool area with bar and food facilities. Very welcoming and great service for the rooms

Just returned from a 4 week stay in these apartments. Such a fantastic find, a perfect place to stay! Elena and Nikos, the owners made the booking and check in very smooth and even organised our airport transfers. When we arrived, very late at night they had kindly left a welcome pack which had everything we needed for a cuppa and snack and even breakfast the following morning. Our whole stay was fabulous...

Perfect spot for a relaxing stay. The apartment, number 4, was stylish, clean and had a beautiful sea view. Steps away from everything Almyrida has to offer. Elena and Nikos were friendly and welcoming. No pool, but the sea and beach are just across the road. Highly recommend:

We stayed on apartment number 5 with fantastic view for the sea. Apartment was very clean with gifts from ours amazing hosts Elena and Nikos. They were very helpful alway kind and do the best to make our holiday best ever. Strongly recommend 👌

Me and my wife had very nice stay in a clean and well equipped apartment. Nice host who advised us when we arrived. Almyrida is a small tourits town with a few good restaurants. Small beaches with reasonable prices for renting a sun bed. We will be back.

Best place to stay with the best owners. Clean and beautiful all days we where there. Lovely beds and apartments with everything you need to cook if you dont want to eat out. Close to everything but you don't get disturbed by the main street with restaurants. Absolutely not the last time there for me.

Our stay at Elena apartments Clean and Nice apartment with a vert good standard. Very helpful and nice hosts and excellent communication both before, during and after stay. Almyrida is a very nice and quiet place with good food, beautiful beaches and nice people!

Quite simply couldn't find fault. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Will definitely return. The food was varied and always nice..The staff were some of the best I have ever encountered. The room was a good size and very modern.Lovely view from balcony. Also a very nice resort. Highly recommend

Nice location, friendly staff, warm welcoming hotel. I would recommend to stay at Almyrida Beach, also liked that you can use resources from the hotel on the other side Almyrida Ressort like Wellness, other pools, hot pool for charge etc. you will make no fault to be there.

Really lovely relaxing stay. Staff attentive and friendly. Everywhere clean. Food was good breakfast excellent. Cocktails great. Pools were lovely if a little cold. We will definitely we looking to come back next year. We might try in May

A first class hotel with excellent customer service. We had a room with a balcony overlooking the pool and a view to the sea. The rocky beach opposite turns into a lovely sandy one with peaceful swimming. The food at the hotel is delicious with something for everyone. I will be back.

Simply a wonderful experience from start to finish! The staff are friendly and welcoming, the room was clean, spacious and very very comfortable. The hotel itself offered good food and drinks . A choice of pools to swim on or simply lounge around and let yourself soak up the relaxing atmosphere whilst have a cocktail (or two!) . I would recommend Almyrida Resort to anyone who wants a relaxing...

Absolutely amazing, staff so helpful and friendly. Lovely gift left in my room for my birthday. Rooms spotless and cleaned daily with lovely staff Loved the use of all the pools, so close to the beach and amenities. Have been before and would come again.

The Almyrida Residence Boutique Hotel is decent, but there's definitely room for improvement. It was quite busy during my stay, and while the rooms were fine, the bathroom was too small, making it nearly impossible to keep dry while showering. Additionally, the safe in my room wasn’t working, which was a bit inconvenient. The breakfast buffet was mediocre at best. They offer a full English breakfast...

Overall an amazing hotel. Right next to the beach and such an ideal location for a relaxing holiday. Cleanliness is a very important thing for me and they met and exceeded all my expectations, thoroughly cleaning everyday. Staff is beyond friendly and extremely helpful and made us feel welcome and eager to visit again. Food was fantastic and they had a variety of different foods giving us a taste of...

There's nothing I would change about our stay at Almyrida Residence. The location was perfect, right in the heart of the town. Our room was spotless, comfortable and modern. Breakfast had lots of options and was great quality. The staff were friendly. Our highlight was the rooftop bar and pool - an unbeatable view and delicious cocktails.

The hotel is exerlant the rooms are also exerlant . All the staff from the top to the bottom are wonderful, very friendly and cheerful, helpful . Almyrida Residence also Almyrida Beach Hotel are kept very clean and tidy. The food is buffet service so there is a good selection for everyone for breakfast and dinner. I would recommend these hotels for everyone

Thank you very much for your quality of service. Everything was perfect. - magnificent rooftop - 3 swimming pools - quality of the room maintenance - very good buffet food Special mention to the friendliness and professionalism of everyone working in the hotel. You do a remarkable job and allow us to have a stress-free vacation. Small possible improvement: think about varying the desserts because...

Summary: *Staff:* Exceptionally friendly and attentive ⁠*Location:* Conveniently close to Chania airport, easy to reach ⁠*Food:* Excellent quality with a variety of vegetarian options ⁠*Hotel:* - Brand new - Beautiful swimming pools - Spacious and well-appointed rooms ⁠*Time of Visit:* Mid-April - Pleasant weather with sunny days ⁠*Areas for Improvement:* - Towels seemed worn out, could be replaced...

This was one of many hotels we looked at but after so many positive reviews about the hotel and the staff it was a no brainer to book and we weren’t disappointed. The staff go out of their way to help you always with a friendly smile. The hotel is clean and adults only makes it a bonus. It’s a 10 second walk from the beach front. The beach is a cove never over crowded and the water is crystal clear...

From the moment my son and I were collected from the coach drop off point in the village in the very early hours I knew we were going to be in for an amazing holiday. Welcomed with a refreshing drink while we checked in our luggage was taken to our room where a much needed cold meat, fruit & cheese platter was waiting for us (at our request). Our room was spotlessly clean, extremely comfy beds &...

Such a beautiful clean and welcoming hotel set in the ideal location a few feet from a sandy beach. The water is so calm you can walk out such a long way and the selection of bars and restaurants are all amazing. The cleanliness and friendliness of this small boutique hotel is what makes your stay so enjoyable. The call button around the pool is a big luxury especially while reading a good book. 1...

We stayed at this beautiful hotel for one week and cannot recommend it enough. The service is exceptional and the hotel itself is very clean and well designed with everything you need. The location is ideal for a quiet relaxing holiday by the beach, but easy enough if you wish to travel into Chania centre. We were privileged to meet such wonderful staff at this hotel, especially Amelia on reception...

Recently returned from aloe boutique. Lovely small hotel for adults only. Spotlessly clean, all the staff seem to work really hard. Even saw them change the covers on the cabana sun beds round the pool. We were there on a bed and breakfast basis but we had a couple of lunchtime meals and one evening meal. All the food was lovely. Our bedroom was great, beds really comfortable and the showers were...

Fabulous hotel. We were very well looked after from start to finish. Everything positive that I'd read in previous reviews was accurate. The team were amazing, friendly and very helpful. Quality of food was great too. Our room had everything we needed and all the onsite facilities such as the pool, loungers, gym and spa were spot on. No complaints whatsoever. I would definitely recommend this hotel...

Great villa, in good location, very close to the beach, restaurants, cafe. Nice surprised to find cold wine and water in the fridge. Some bread, fruits, biscuits and honey also been left for us. Very clean and kitchen equiped with all you could need for self catering holiday.

Warm hospitality, in crystal clear villas with all amenities and wonderful views. I highly recommend it!
