Spa-Hotels in Kato Daratso

Checked into the hotel quickly when we arrived. However, on arrival was told we would have to pay €105 due to tourist tax and being a 5* hotel. TUI, claim they told us but it was in small print......however we did receive a free upgrade to a room with a pool. 5* hotel, questionable. Not sure if that was due to Platanias closing down for the season or if it's just how the hotel runs. (Food excellent...

Large resort hotel in Platanias village right next to the beach. The hotel is spread over a huge area, with many room types to choose from in several buildings. There are several smaller and larger pools between the buildings, which are not heated. Unfortunately, hotel guests "reserve" the sunbeds in the morning, so it often happened that although there was no one in the pools and around them, we still...

We were moved from the village resort to the beach resort due to being under subscribed at the end of the season. We were worried as we booked there for the water park but on jet 2 looking into it they were keeping the park open with the rest of the resort shutting. Fine print though states both resorts have to pay extra for the water park at €15 per person. We did use it one day and as the resort...

Porto Platanias has got to be the best hotel I’ve personally been in. The staff are super super respectful and helpful from handling luggage to booking activities from the reception. Not only that but they are also really friendly and is always nice to talk to the staff as well. Amenities and services wise: They have it all on their MASSIVE estate. They have many pools, a super nice restaurant for...

We came back for a second year with our 2 boys and loved our stay yet again. We were given a free upgrade to a superior family mezzanine room which was a fab start to the stay. Our balconies overlooked the harbour, our favourite pool and the mountains behind. The breakfast buffet was a highlight, as it was last year, the pools were always accessible and never overcrowded and the safety of the resort...

We had the most wonderful vacation in years! The hotel is spotless and well-organized, with friendly and attentive staff who made us feel very welcome. Our room was cleaned daily and fresh towels were provided every day. The food was excellent – delicious, varied, and plentiful. Even though the hotel had many guests, the restaurant never felt crowded and the service from the waiters was consistently...

Fantastic Stay – Clean, Comfortable, and Relaxing I stayed at this hotel for 4 days and had a fantastic experience. The service was excellent—staff were friendly, helpful, and always attentive. The hotel and room were spotless, very clean and comfortable. The facilities were great, and the spa service was also very good. I especially appreciated the multiple swimming pools with plenty of space to relax...

Stayed 6 nights in a pool view room which we were upgraded to. Had a beautiful view from the 2nd floor. The bedroom and bathroom were both very spacious and clean. The buffet breakfast was excellent. Was fresh every morning and had a very large variety of hot and cold dishes and sweets. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Overall a pleasant stay in a beautiful property.

My husband and I stayed at the Minoa Palace for a portion of our honeymoon with the half board package and we greatly enjoyed the experience. Their location was great and transportation to Chania was easily accessible. The half board includes breakfast and dinner in which the food was excellent. We choose this option so that we could venture out during the day and explore other places for lunch. Their...

I am very satisfied with the service. Ctrip's customer service is also very professional. Thank you very much.

We spent the last night of our weeks holiday at this resort as a treat. The room was very good - very clean. Some excellent perks such as welcome drinks / cocktails and a bottle of wine. The Spa was beautiful- I enjoyed their amazing cool pool and jacuzzi all to myself. Beach and hotel pools good. What let this place down was the very poor quality of food we ordered with room service. I had to send...

The resort grounds are very beautiful! The beach area is nicely kept, from there you can see breathtaking sunrises & sunsets. There are plenty of beach chairs available, and you can have a fresh beach towel every day, if you wish. You can get served with food/beverages the entire time the beach area is "open". The food choices are amazing, a massive buffet both at breakfast & dinner, although dinner...

The bottle of wine offered in the room, and the complimentary welcome cocktail drinks.

We spent some holidays in a past years in a hotels better and worst and we had some sort of level of everything that we didn’t want go lower. We’ve searched for this year holiday for 6 months because one bad review put us off. But decided to spend this year at Caldera and that was the best decision ever. Starting from reception, everyone was very friendly and helpful. We were offered to leave baggage...

Great resort. We are in one of the ground floor rooms. Would have give an extra star if I had a better view from my patio. Some rooms will have. We went bed and breakfast and the breakfast is great, loads of choices.

Very nice location, with direct access to the beach. We booked an apartment with sea view, with a large terrace, very clean and comfortable. The hotel has its own parking and has plenty of restaurants nearby, beachfront as well as in the main street. The host is very friendly, he offered a lot of valuable suggestions for spending time around the island. We arrived at in the middle of the night and...

Very happy my first holiday in years. I took a long time scanning the Internet for a destination and I chose this 👌 I must say I was happy. Jet2 were fantastic and I will use them again also. When we landed at the hotel there was an issue with our room so we got moved to the sister hotel over the road for one night which was fine, then they gave us a free massage and late check out also for the inconvenience...

Lovely hotel with great customer service and fabulous food. Spacious rooms cleaned daily very well. What makes this hotel special is their greatest asset and thats the staff who are sociable, friendly and go above and beyond. Leaving a piece of our hearts in Crete

This is a great and clean hotel complex. We didn't do the all inclusive although the breakfast buffett covered all bases. The swimming pools offer variety and the beach is fantastic to visit around 4pm/5pm when it is a little cooler. The staff who cleaned are room were amazing and very friendly.

Average , could be better , some positive points , the beach location is great , plenty of sun loungers available on the beach . The Restaurant has a good variety of food and a good standard, but it does have other issues, it’s quite chaotic, often one or more drinks machines were out of order causing a queue, often running out of clean cups or glasses , when it’s raining the outside area is obviously...

The best place and the best people. Very nice! Eddy ans Michalis are the best barmans! We are very happy to be here. I recommed very much!

Nice clean hotel , although room towels and bed sheets had seen better days , some frayed , and holed , which we did mention to the hotel reception and it was rectified immediately . Beach towels are only allowed to be changed every 3 days between 10 am- 4pm. With no exceptions , We had been out on an excursion all day came back at 5.45 pm and was told too late come back at 10 am next day ...

We've just returned from a lovely holiday in Crete. The hotel is good but as I say in the title, there are some improvements needed. We still really enjoyed our stay though. When we first arrived we had to complain to TUI about our room as we had paid extra for a swim up room but the one they put us in originally was far from it. You had to cross a big terrace to reach a small pool directly in front...

Perfect for all ages from 0 to 99. The staff especially Nikos on front desk were extremely helpful and assisted throughout with a smile. For my first time in an all inclusive resort I can only say it was a great 4 days of exploring, family time and wellness

great hotel, great location. great staff. the bartenders were absolutely brilliant, one really stood out his name was Zhivko

Lovely hotel! Brilliant location right on seafront and close to town's restaurants and shops. Staff are so friendly - Pinelopi and Katerina on Reception were extremely kind. Welcome drink on arrival and a voucher for a free drink at the bar also. Pool area is relaxed and there are loungers on beach and round the pool so best of both options. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Breakfast really nice and...

Just returned from a week at this fabulous hotel . This hotel is amazing the bed one of the comfiest i've ever slept in . The attention to details is second to none and i would 100 percent stay there again . The staff penelope on reception and eddie who worked in the restaurant and bar were lovely and friendly . The location of the hotel is amazing as well as the food we ate one evening in the restaurant...

My parents came from Azerbaijan for one week vacation here and absolutely loved it: nice and clean hotel, access to the beautiful beach, a beach bag with toiletries. What make their stay even more lovely was a very attentive staff - Penelope, Catarina, Mohamed, and special thanks to Andreas for his signature daiquiris!

My wife and I loved this hotel. Right next to the beach and breakfast was wonderful. But what made our trip extra special was the hotel receptionist Katarina. She was so kind and helpful. She gave us the best recommendations and made the hotel feel like a home.

Me and my daughter really loved our week at the Porto Platanias Luxury. Nice room/suite and facilities, clean, peaceful environment and top tier service from the lovely staff! The room was very well equiped, good comfortable bed, great air condition, bathroom supplies including razors and other useful items. Also a ironing board and iron so one could get wrinkels out of the shirts. Breakfast was...

we won’t be staying here again. The amenities are just not up to our usual standards. the airconditioning system is substandard so the room was rarely cold enough and we are in the air con business. out of the hundreds of hotels we have stayed at in the past 40 years, this is the only hotel that doesn’t supply free water every day. Our television had constant internet issues so we couldn’t use it...

This was the second time we've stayed at the Thalassa and we were so pleased we did . Fantastic hotel , lovely staff , great room and a good size balcony with a pull out clothes drier. We used the spa and had a very relaxing experience , recommend it . The pool bar made excellent cocktails and Manos's cocktails are far the best ! The Thalassa is in a good location with plenty of shops and restaurants...

Back for a 2nd year and it didn’t disappoint. We stayed in one of the sea view rooms again (#500 row) which gives you a view of the pool, sea and bar, and even though the hotel is quite compact it isn’t noisy. The dinner format has improved this year. It used to be a set menu if you were half board, but it’s a standard menu this year so you can choose from a variety of things. However, the hotel is...

Fabulous hotel fantastic staff great food excellent location pool scene good Ouzaki pool restaurant is exceptional value for money

Our cruise ship was detoured here due to high winds and dangerous surf. We emailed the resort and asked for a day pass, which they offered to us. We rented a lovely day bed and towels and enjoyed the sun, bar, and restaurant service. The staff was all polite and professional. Our lunch of pork gyros was delicious. This was a great way to spend a windy day.

We have just returned from another wonderful week at this hotel (4th year running) We had a double sea view room which was clean, comfortable and of ample size. The cleaning team are amazing, not just the rooms but the hotel and grounds are all immaculately kept. Great service at the pool bar and the guys that bring your drink direct to your sunbed if requested. We were B&B so I can only comment...

A great team from bar to reception to the cleaning team. The location for the beach and attractions (short taxi to Chania) is excellent. Rooms are starting to look a little tired. However, they are kept clean, and more than regular towel/ linen changes are welcomed. Breakfast is good, and it was clear that many people return year in year out. An adults only location. Great that there is no deposit...

Mossa was everything we hoped for on our recent trip to Chania. We wanted a blend of relaxation, delicious food, hiking, easy parking, and beach days—and Mossa delivered on all fronts. The facilities and staff were incredible, always attentive to our needs and ready to answer any questions about exploring the nearby area or recommending ideal spots within driving distance. The included breakfast was...

I recently stayed here for 10 days. We had the most fantastic stay and are already looking forward to our next visit! The rooms were spacious, well appointed and very clean. The breakfast is good value for money with a range of options provided. The Greek night which is held every Monday was such a memorable part of our stay. A special shout-out to Alex, Christos, Aris and Anna who all went above and...

My experience at this hotel was generally good. At first glance, it doesn’t seem like just a 3-star hotel, as both the decor and the facilities are very nice, and the rooms turned out to be comfortable. The breakfast and the menu, in general, are fine, with enough options to satisfy guests. Regarding the service, I must highlight the exceptional attention from Aris, who made our stay much more enjoyable...

This hotel is truly worth a visit! Top-notch quality, stylish area, perfect service, very friendly staff who is ready to help in any situation! Once we checked in we’ve got a list of recommendations with a lot of helpful advices. Breakfast in the hotel is outstanding with a great variety of food. Rooms are clean and spacious with all the equipment needed. The location is perfect, there are 4 beaches...

The hotel was great. Good location , very clean, pleasant place. The staff is super kind, they will pay attention in your requests, give you great tips about what to do, where to eat. They can book your tours. Only good things to say about them.

It can’t get any better than this. Rooms are perfect, with central air (not common in Greece), very clean. The pool is amazing. Across the street there is a park, and 2’ walking from there, you’ll find a nice beach. There is also a bus stop right outside the property. The staff is so nice! This place is worth every penny.

I booked this hotel myself, not through a travel agency. I read reviews and viewed photos, and I must admit that the hotel looks much better than in the photos, and we had a wonderful stay! We stayed eight nights and everything was great! The service, the delicious breakfast, the small but adequate gym, and above all, the location right on the beach, close to many attractions, yet in a very quiet area...

Went her with my family in July 2025 and the hotel did not disappoint. They did try to put us in a family room even though we had booked to separate hotel rooms but that was sorted out after the first night. The hotel has a unique location/area with a part of the beach that feels private. I walk along the beach and looked at all the other hotels and Geraniotis stands out with their open green area...

Tourism is big business on Crete and the team running the Geraniotis have figured out how to make the most of it. The main Platanias village on a hill is a 15 minute walk and Chania is 30 minutes away on regular crowded buses (with a stop right outside). The hotel is well designed: two-storey, white, vaguely Arab-style buildings with lots of grassy areas, flowerbeds and trees. The rooms are functional...

Great place, good location, excellent design. All the staff was super friendly, and Lefteris impressed us with his openness plus he even spoke Polish to us. I definitely recommend this hotel. Thank you :)

It is worth buying family apartment typ de lux number 165 because it was worth the price. High standarts of ccleanliness,very goog food(regional green products👏).The beach place wonderfull(UNCROWDED,grassy beach of hotel and sand /gravel beach with turtle nests and sea lilies-NATURE 2000.They are no loud animatora and loud disco.There is atmospheric live music(e.g.greek and…swing👌).We recommend this...

Dear All, Our Family stayed here last week, and my honest opinion is that the hotel is too perfect :). Before our vacation I have read some negative review, but we didn't faced nothing bad during our stay. It's a really family friendly and clean hotel, we got a room cleaning almost every day, the food was really fantastic, everybody found the best food for their needs. The staff also very friendly...

We had a great holiday at Althea Village this summer. It was our first holiday with our daughter which was 7 months old and the hotel felt perfect for us. The staff was really nice, everyday they were waiting for us with lunch prepared special for our daughter (at that moment she was eating only boiled vegetables), the room had a crib only for her, the "village" was quiet so we enjoyed our stay. We...

We've had our holiday at Althea Village in mid-september. It was the first time coming to this hotel and we will definitely come back in the future. The complex is big and spacious, perfect for a family holiday. We really liked how well maintained the common area was, with many trees and flowers, that gives you a holiday vibe. The rooms were very clean and there were a lot of food options at the restaurant...

Just a lovely place overall. Really really nice place with very helpful staff and super nice food. Located 10 minutes from the beach making it great for a short walk after breakfast to reach the beach. The small gym was super well maintained and surprisingly well equipped. All day Gyros was an absolute treat, I highly recommend it!

Overall we had a great stay! The staff was super kind and helped us with everything we needed. Our room was cleaned daily which was a huge plus! We did however had a little problem the last day because our toilet didn’t flush. The pool areas were a bit small but there was always sunbeds available. Food was fantastic most days, some days a little weak and vegetarian options weren’t the best. The bar...

Just returned from a lovely weeks holiday staying in Althea Village. Facilities and room were very good. Good quality food, we were particularly were pleased with how well labelled it was as my wife is vegetarian. She was very well catered for. Location is excellent, short distance from Chania airport. Short walk to a bus stop to take you into Chania itself which has a very pretty Venetian harbour

Everything was great, especially Radek as an entertainer. Great food, activities and location, very helpful staff. Rooms were clean and in good condition. Would definitely recommend

Top Hotel with Nice service and every rooms have 3 balconys. Great when you dont want to live in a big tourist complex.

Clean, welcoming, great manager/owner and lovely staff. Near the beach and walking distance to many restaurants.

I really enjoyed my stay there.super clean rooms and shared places,beautifully decoration and nice staffs.Beside all,its perfect location near beach. I strongly recommend you to stay there

Love the staff and the can-do-fix-it attitude that you find here. Even non-alcohol drink was easy to fix which is quite unusual in this area. Go there, relax, chill out and enjoy If you are not satisfied, you probably need some extra vacation 😘

My friend and I are two girls from Denmark, who spend 1 week in Agia Marina and stayed in Epimendis hotel. Our flat consisted of 1 bedroom, 1 dining room with a small kitchen, 1 bathroom, and 2 outside sitting areas. We enjoyed to make our own breakfast and there were plenty of shops nearby the hotel witch made it easy to get groceries. It is not a 5 stars hotel, but you get good value for the money...

Very nice and clean Hotel. (floors could be cleaner, other wise everything ok). Nice pool. Restaurant had also good food, gyros,pizza and mousaka for example. Location was easy, everything nearby. Travelled with Kids and i would go back to this Hotel again, if going to hania again. Nice restaurants close By,i recommend Nymfi and Meraki tavern close, up on the hills.

Why have many stars on the hotels. When you can have epimenidis. Nice staff. Nice rooms. Nice hospitality. And a nice pool. You are only 5 min away from freedom and nice Places to eat.. so if you want to save money and use Them on fun. Choice epimenidis.

Had a one bedroom apartment in the last block of the complex. Liked a lot the location and peacefulness of the room. The room itself was spacious for one person but could easily accommodate 2 adults & 2 children. There were two big sofas in the living room-kitchen area for children and they looked comfortable enough to sleep. Two wardrobes, one in the bedroom and one in the hallway just beside...

We returned from a week at the Epis hotel last Saturday (24.09.22). It is in a great location with so many restaurants nearby it was hard to choose where to eat! You walk out of the hotel and can turn left or right to a street full of shops, bars and restaurants but it is not a noisy place. I would say it is most suited to middle aged couples and families. We didn't see any nightclubs but then...

The biggest advantage of Sun City is the family that runs the hotel. I have never met such kind people who are like family after first encounter already. But not only the family,also the location is perfect,just 5 minutes walk from the beach,accross the road 2 great restaurants (Angelo and Oreganos), but you can also have great snacks at the hotel bar next to the swimming pool. Great experience and...

Very nice hotel run by a very nice family. Rooms are very clean and comfortable, close to beaches. We came back after amazing experience last year.

After finding that our hotel had been changed due to the insolvency of the agent who took the booking, we were not expecting much of the new hotel. Well it was fate to find we had been booked into the friendliest hotel ever, with a beautiful apartment with the most outstanding views of the mountains and sea. Nothing was too much trouble and we were soon feeling like one of the family. The hotel, pool...

One of the best holidays we ever had! The entire family that runs the hotel is so nice you feel like you are at home. Rooms are big and allow you to take the best rest possible. There is a swimming pool in front of the hotel,there is also a nice small bar with great people working in it. Have a beer or whatever drink you want and meet people from all around the world - the best experience ever and...

What a treat finding this place ! Location was great- chania was 10 mins away on a bus - platania just the same in other direction. Lovkey beaches nearby - great restaurants all around and amazing family who hosted My worry is others finding out and it not being available!!

I felt so comfortable and welcomed here. It is an amazing family running this place and they make you feel like you are family. I came solo and I felt safe and at peace. Great location, didn’t want to leave. Beaches are down the street, easy busy into Chania. Truly an amazing experience. Would come stay again in a heart beat.

Beautifuly designed hotel.Apartment with the pool is very spaceous,bright,with separate bedroom,and big terace,perfect

Nice breakfast buffet, but they could do with a bit more space for it. It gets crowded very easily.

Beautiful resort!! Everything was so clean, comfortable, and calm. Felt like a perfect relaxing escape from the hustle of Chania. Also, in the nearby area, it is only a 5 minute walk to the ocean with a stunning hiking spot for when it is too cold to swim.

An amazing and relaxing place to stay during your vacation. The room was spacious and mostly perfectly cleaned. The stuff is really kind and helpful. You can enjoy your coffee or drink by the pool. I will definitely visit Okeanis again when being near Chania. Thank you for being an outstanding hotel.

Everything was great! The location is very quiet, the place makes you feel relaxed and cozy, and the staff is really nice and helpful. See you again next year!!

Everything was perfect, very kind service from the reception desk, very close to the beach, clean room and bath.

The best staff possible. Everyone was above and beyond hospitable and nice. You can't get better service than here!

Cute aparthotel on the beach, simple furnished rooms but very comfortable and clean. Amazing staff and great prices for the drinks. I felt very welcomed and relaxed there, will definitely return!

First time at this place. Will definitely come back. The great staff is very service minded, and great rooms with an amazing atmosphere. The place is located just a few meters from the beach whereas the hotel have their own place with different options for beach beds. I highly recommend you to stay at this place.

We had excellent time. Very big and comfortable room for 5 pax. Beach is a dream

A little gem of a hotel. All staff were so friendly and welcoming. The food in the restaurant was delicious and the breakfast buffet each morning offered a wide selection of mouth watering hot and cold options. The pool and gardens were immaculate and we had no problem getting sunbeds each day. We stayed in a Superior Apartment and it was great to have an indoor seating and kitchen area as well as...

A lovely place to stay. A fabulous pool area. Always kept very clean. Our accommodation was really good, very spacious, with a living room and kitchen. No cooking facilities, just a fridge. Great outdoor space, with sunbeds and jacuzzi. Breakfast was an option and we were very happy we included it. The staff were so nice, really friendly and helpful. I asked for an umbrella for our outdoor area...

What's a fantastic hotel. Firstly the staff were tremendous, so friendly and accommodating. The hotel serves a stunning breakfast with a selection for all. The pool area was never crowded always sun beds available. The rooms were lovely and clean and had everything you needed including arrival drinks. The hotel is kept in a lovely condition and is clean and bushes all well trimmed. Close to beaches...

We spent a weekend at Zeus in July24 and the staff had impeccable attention to details and made this a lovely experience. They noticed that it was my birthday on the booking details and left us a gift in the room, which was so sweet. Thank you for making this a special weekend Such a relaxing weekend, the massage was also soooo good, highly recommend

We have enjoyed every minute of our stay at Zeus Village Resort! We were helped by the hotel to book a first-class transfer from the airport, which was very smooth and comfortable. Despite our late arrival at the hotel, we were met by a nice man from the staff who quickly guided us to our room. The first morning it was time to explore the hotel's breakfast. And what a wonderful breakfast it was! We...

We have just spent a week in this wonderful hotel, staying in the 215 zeus suite with a private pool and balconies. We have never booked a hotel with less than 5 stars before but took a chance on this one. Well what can I say other than we were blown away! Firstly the staff, everyone from the moment you arrive are so welcoming and helpful, nothing is too much. We checked in early at no extra cost and...

We spent half of our honeymoon here we were welcomed with beautiful gifts and friendliness, the hotel was beautiful, comfortable and clean

Everything was amazing. Very satisfied .Tomas the security and Angelo very profesional we miss them .See u next year

It was peaceful like paradise.Amazing choice for relaxing .The staff was so friendly. Angelo we ll come back .Miss u

Very nice hotel! The bartender and the staff was very good! The best drinks I have ever teased!

The hotel of the dreams. The bartrender Angelo was an Angel from above. The bar was a pleasure to hang out, he is so friendly and make the best drinks I have ever drank. You have to visit and say Hello from Kimberlee to Angelo.

Excellent hotel! The rooms spacious with a lovely view of the pool, we could sit outside and relax or swim. 1 minute for the beach. Also the windows were soundproof so no matter the noise or music outside, the rooms were peaceful
