Hotels in Kokkini Khanion

We enjoyed our stay at Arina Beach in September as much as we did the first time last year in June. As a family with a 4 year old kid, it is a nice place to rest as we had all the facilities. The variety of fresh and tasty food, the long seaside shore , a lot of pools, every evening shows, friendly and careful staf, comfortable and spacious rooms with seaside view. A few bus stations away we visited...

We really enjoyed the vacation at this hotel. The food was excellent, the location is right on the beach. The water is crystal clear when there are no waves. In the right part of the hotel beach there is another beach that is protected by some micro islands from the big waves. The water is shallow which makes it perfect for small children. The rooms are large and are cleaned daily. The entire hotel...

The place, beach, food, pools, and events were just amazing! Unfortunately, my overall experience wasn’t great. One day I had to call the service desk to get the room cleaned, and another day it was completely forgotten even though we had selected the clean-room option while we were away. A cleaner even opened the door while we were inside, despite the “Do Not Disturb” sign being on. I had also booked...

Stayed with wife and my 3 years old daughter. Everything was great, we got a bit earlier to the hotel but we got our room earlier as well (at about 12 PM) Rooms are nice and are cleaned daily. Some minor maintenance might be required here and there but not a deal breaker Food was excellent and the variety was great as well. Plenty to choose from The beach is one of the best I've ever visited, very...

Last day of our 1 week holiday today so thought I would write a review to praise the amazing staff at Arina Beach. We stayed in the maisonette with pool. 3 teenage kids upstairs in 3 single beds (with their own showerroom) and my husband and I downstairs in a kingsize bed with our own showerroom (very small). Room was very clean, soft drinks and bottled water included in the fridge. Wifi was good....

We had a fantastic holiday at Arina Beach Resort and were truly impressed! The hotel is beautiful and well-maintained, with a lovely seaside promenade and a relaxing atmosphere. The staff were friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist with anything we needed. You can really tell that guest satisfaction is a priority here. One of the absolute highlights of our stay was the food. The restaurants...

I had a wonderful experience at this hotel. From the moment I arrived, the staff were welcoming, friendly, and attentive to every detail. The check-in process was smooth, and my room was spotless, beautifully decorated, and very comfortable. The bed was incredibly cozy, and the view from the window was stunning. The amenities were top-notch — especially the breakfast buffet, which offered a great...

My fiancé and I stayed here for 1 week at the start of October. Mitsis Rinela is a beautiful hotel. The rooms are beautiful, modern and kept immaculately clean. The rest of the hotel is also beautiful, reflecting the same standard of upkeep. The Reception and main restaurant is a little dated in decor in comparison, but again, immaculately clean. The sun loungers are luxurious and comfortable, with...

Warm welcomed, the guest relations and concierge ladies were lovely, in general the whole front office team. Our room was amazing, modern and clean, every day our mini bar was refilled and the room was being cleaned spotless. The food was good but Steak was amazing. We loved the pool but the beach was wow! Sandy and clean! Felt nice having lifeguards to watch on us. We had a great stay!

Mitsis Rinela exceeded all my expectations! The serene and beautifully designed surroundings instantly put me at ease, making it the perfect escape. The staff here is absolutely wonderful—always smiling and ready to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. Our room was a dream—spacious, bright, and immaculately clean. The main restaurant has something for everyone, with a fantastic variety of options...

One of the best hotels in Crete! The environment and design make you feel so relaxed and safe. Staff is amazing and always there smiling and ready to assist. Rooms are clean, luminous and spacious. The Main Restaurant has various options that may cater all kind of preferences and needs. From the a la carte restaurants, I tried the Taverna, which was a lovely greek dining experience and on my last day...

Our stay was very nice. Thank you very much. Organisation is Perfect!

Lovely clean room, such welcoming staff, they all have been so wonderful and friendly. Me and my partner have come here as our first solo holiday and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience, where we have been really put at ease. Everything has been smooth and easy, with daily walks to the beach and a simple trip by bus into Heraklion! The food has been amazing as well, with a good selection...

My stay at Erato hotel/ The Evina Suites was excellent, with a beautiful room that was kept very clean, even our sandy shoes were cleaned! The breakfast and dinner buffets had a great selection and were delicious. The best part about Erato Hotel/The Evina Suites is the friendly and welcoming staff that went above and beyond to meet all our needs and keep us happy. There is a bus stop just outside the...

Nice little hotel with good service. It is situated near busstop to Heraklion but I think a rentalcar is needed to go to better beaches and to discover the island. car rental from hotel was very uncomplicated and easy. I also liked the dinner because it was always different traditional greek food.

Wonderful Small Hotel, the rooms were big and immaculately clean and a huge king size bed. Family run hotel, who really do look after you. Food was good, breakfast was continental. Lots to do locally and a great bus service. Little shop just a two minute walk from the hotel and sells everything you could need. Thank you very much to the all the staff and specially the Marie's.

We loved it here. The rooms were always clean. The foods were great but it was mostly the same things maybe it can be more different but it was great. The service was very good and the staff was very friendly and kind. The weather was perfect for us.

Everyone at the hotel is so lovely and accommodating! We had a trip on the Friday the lovely Maria helped us and phoned them for us. We but would have missed breakfast that morning because of pick up times, the staff brought us some breakfast and fresh coffee in a flask the night before so we didn’t go hungry! Really good selection of buffet food changing each night. Highly recommend going to the...

We’ve come here fore years and every year we come back to the beach at themis hotel. Kiki and sofia are always very friendly and welcoming. They offer the best service you can get. We are very happy to come back again

A few days with my daughter 4 nights with my daughter. Good location right on the beach, pool ok but very cold water, the sea was warmer I think… Busstop just a step away on the mainstreet that takes you straight to Heraklion or if u like to Agios Nikolaus. Only are Breakfast but it was good and lots to chose from. Can recommend the Hotel.

Very nice hotel exceptional front desk service very unique and organized,guy named Demetrius he is the best. very respectful,and helpful ,he is amazing thank you. And one more thank you for the manger in the restaurant when we have breakfast buffet in the morning name Gregor's he is amazing with service with attitude and everyone working in the restaurant was wonderful thank you again ,nice jobs.

This hotel exceeded my expectations. The views, staff are welcoming, the free breakfast was great so many options to choose from. It has WiFi although out the hotel even the beach. You have your own sun bed with umbrellas. They also have a restaurant next to the beach. The view from our room is amazing. I was also given an upgrade from a garden view to a beach view. I was so happy since it was my birthday...

Nice location, nice room with sea view, excellent breakfast, lots of space by the pool, plenty of free sunbeds👍 Wifi in my room was non existent 😢

The receptionist was great.. Also the restaurant manager is a professional and wonderful person.. The hotel is old and needs renovation.. The bed is hard and the covers are light, not clean and smell bad.. The breakfast was good and varied

The word that comes to mind after staying at Marilisa is "Home"... and this helps us understand the judgment based on our experience and, above all, on what we seek. We're not talking about luxury hotels, cutting-edge technology, or special services; we're talking about hospitality, courtesy, and excellent quality. The staff is perfect: empathetic, friendly, and welcoming, Nikos above all. Traditional...

Great hotel and service – we really enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and the friendly, helpful staff. The pool was excellent, and the beach was just a short walk away. The food could be improved, but it didn’t ruin the experience. It was also convenient that the city center could be easily reached by public transport. Overall, a pleasant and relaxing stay.

Came for 4 weeks into our last week now , all the staff are very good and will help you as much as they can, the rooms are big and clean they clean every day, the outside is also nice and clean, the service is very good all the staff never stop and for the price we paid for 4 weeks half board is good value for money, only a stone’s throw from the beach and you can use the facilities of their sister...

We were very satisfied,the servise was very good and all the employeers very nice. We can recommend the hotel to tourists traveling to Crete. We hope to return to this country some time in the future. We also appreciate Greek food which is very good and healthy.

A hotel on the street, close to the airport, so you can quickly and easily get to Heraklion, Hersonisos and beyond. Close to bus stops, price about 2.5 euros/person, usually by an air-conditioned bus. The sea and the beach are very close, through the yard, 2 minutes away. Planes, however, have an entry path there, so earplugs are recommended at night. "The room" we were assigned to, in my opinion,...

Very chilled hotel, we were here for 10 days. Quiet time of year, very chilled, got lots of rest, hotel staff were lovely, good sized rooms, beds comfy. Close to the beach and local cafes and bars, supermarket. Rooms cleaned every day, food also very nice. Lots of variety at dinner time. Local buses every 25mins to take you to Herkalion, Hersonissos, Malia. Id defo recommend the hotel if your...

We arrived late . We were given room 1. Expect some noise as this is next to reception and you'll here people coming and going. Room was comfortable with air con and small balcony to sit on. The lovely wonderful Penelope has made this trip for us she is always smiling and funny. A mention for Maria too who is so sweet. I think the manager/owner could be more friendly and engage with his hotel guests...

George an Lavrendis are the best in the Hotel, they are so polite and have a good sense of humor. Hotel has a greatlocation, just by the perfect beach. We will n back definitely. Waterpark and Heraklion are also closed. The food is good, the room tidiness also great.

Very good position ,main street front of the beach ,frendlly personal ,nice pool and restaurant ,atmosphere is quiet and that s what i searched for ,you can acces easelly all good restaurants ,bars ,rental car points from Kokkini ,we will come again for sure

Extraordinary experience! The staff and the people of Crete are top tier! And the food, absolutely no words. The view its the cherry on top of the cake. Thank you! Will returne for sure.

Arglios was the best Service waiter. The room was very clean. Thank you for everything!!

We really enjoyed staying here. The views are amazing and it was great being so close to the sea, literally just down the steps. It was 30 degrees plus when we were there so it's a relief to have the sea breeze and to be able to cool off in the waves. It's quite windy at the moment so we found the sea isn't flat enough for paddleboarding unless you like the waves. The staff are lovely and friendly...

Nice hotel with restaurant attached stayed for 2 weeks . Very attentive staff. Bar open until the last customer goes. Very nice apartments , with a relaxed atmosphere. Not much in the area. But a fantastic bus route that takes you to malia and the other way herkalion.

Simple rooms with a small kitchen and bathroom, nothing special but perfect and as expected. Amazing family run business, all the staff are great and will go out of their way to make your stay better. The restaurant is also the best in Kokomo Hani by far, the food is top notch, even the homemade raki they serve you is the best you’ll come across. Only a 3 or so minute walk from the beach and a supermarket...

Wow. What a great experience. Was not expecting that since the hotel was so cheap but the staff was absolutely amazing. They greeted me by name everyday. Helped me with whatever I needed. The restaurant there is sooooo delicious too. Must try the pizza🤤 the room was huge and comfortable with a nice balcony. Pool was so clean. If you have a car, there is plenty of parking on the street (it’s safe),...

Everything is great here! The apartment is a great size, facilities good, access to washing facilities, very clean, excellent housekeeping, very friendly and helpful staff, location is great (outside but close to tourist area), lovely views of countryside, access to amenities… plus restaurant on site, where vegetables and salads come from their own garden!! We’ll definitely come back :-)

I have rated the Ideal Hotel with 5 stars throughout, it is not a 5 star hotel, it is a self-catering apartment hotel, but for what it is it deserves the high ratings. It is family run, one brother George works the bar and Taverna in the evenings, another brother is the Chef, and the third brother works the bar in the morning and afternoon. There is a huge garden next to the hotel and every morning...

Ideal apartments are fantastic,5 minutes to the beach, and the food at Ideal is fabulous, and all the staff make you welcome.

one of the best hotels on this island, perfectly clean rooms, delicious breakfasts (we took only with breakfast), the staff is very attentive, I recommend this hotel to everyone without a doubt❤️❤️❤️❤️ very beautiful hotel grounds and clean pool, and be sure to try the wine 🍷 thank you for the gift 🎁😍🧿🧿🧿❤️

The hotel is about 15 minutes by car from Heraklion. The beach is just a few minutes' walk away. Pharmacies, taverns, souvenir shops and grocery stores are all within walking distance and are nearby. The town doesn't have much else to offer. The hotel is very noisy. The reception is never manned and hotel guests who were partying loudly in the next room at 3 a.m. were not asked to quiet down. This...

We found this place by chance last week when looking for a place for the night. Very clean and friendly and handy to local shops & tavernas. I will be giving Maria a call in the next couple of days to see if she has rooms available for another overnight stay.

Had an amazing stay at anemos. Rooms were lovely, beds were comfy. The pool and facilities were always kept clean, Maria and Kostas were so friendly and made us all feel like family, they really went above and beyond! Would highly recommend!

Nice place to stay, with a pool, near the beach. Very friendly people. The room was clean and the beds very comfortable. We had a big wardrobe, a small fridge, TV, air conditioning, small bathroom and a cozy terrace. We will return!

We stayed here for a night and it was wonderful. The room was big enough and had a little terrace. The breakfast the next they was complete and super tasty. we had parking in the hotel and was super close to the beach.

Hi everyone, First of all I would like to recommend Coralli Beach hotel for people and professionalism they use to work, and congrats for this as well! A clean hotel, with a variety of breakfast dishes, suit's etc Think that you are near by the beach ⛱️ , you have good restaurants next to the hotel. We been here for honey moon and really enjoyed and HIGHER Recommend for everyone that could be a simple...

The location is perfect, the beach is 5 meters away from a gorgeous small sandy beach with crystal clear water, the rooms are spacious and they clean and change towels every day! It is quite and relaxing atmosphere with the best breakfast that is from 8-11 so you can wake up early or just sleep more and go to enjoy the awesome pancakes on with sea views right next to you!

The hotel is great: big rooms, every room cleaning, extremely helpful staff! Big terrace next to the sea with gorgeous view fir breakfast. Breakfast is traditional Greek food - big and tasty. Rooms are extremely big with a nice terrace. The hotel has its own beach, and a lot of sun beds next to a swimming pool. The hotel is pets friendly so you can come with your dog 😊. 3 years ago the hotel got a...

P-E-R-F-E-C-T-I-O-N: This hotel is everything you are looking for. The rooms a spacious, super-clean, and have all that you need. The swimming pool is clean and our 3 young children loved playing there. the beach is literally 10 steps away. you have 5 different restaurants within 1 or 2 minutes walk. As a final bonus, the owner, Dimitris, is one of the nicest guys i ever met - there for you with any...

The owner and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. The hotel itself is located nextdoor to a couple nice restaurants (Avra and Ambrosia) and a nice beach is just across the street. We also really enjoyed the pool and the breakfast offered in the hotel. On the day we had a flight home, we had to leave before breakfast and the owner made sure to prepare some snacks for us to take - it was a very...

Coralli Beach is the best place you can rent a room if you want to stay in the area of Kokkini Kani- Gournes. First of all you got spacious rooms with TV air conditioning, en suite bathroom, continental breakfast with several local products and a lot of choices including fruits, salads and much more. Every morning the staff gives you a bottle of cold water with breakfast which is a plus with the hot...

I have to write a negative comment and it is related to the breakfast/kitchen of the restaurant. Today I came to the restaurant at 7:35am. The coffee and juice machines were not turn on, only the basic things (bread, cheese, salami, tomato salads, cucumbers and spreads). The famous Greek cheese was brought out a few minutes before 8am... and the information was that breakfast is from 7:30am... you...

We were dropped off by a transfer bus outside a sign that says shotels almare beach. We walked down a path towards the building but couldn't see a reception area and I had no instructions about what to do so then I had to call a number who then called the hotel and sent someone round to us. We then had to walk to Shotels Sunset Beach Hotel, which is a short walk down from where we were staying. There...

The hotel is impeccably maintained and exudes a sense of cleanliness and order. One of the highlights was undoubtedly the view from the sea-view rooms, which can only be described as magical. The staff deserves special mention for their exceptional hospitality. They were not just courteous but also seemed like endearing characters from a TV show about hotels, always ready to assist with a smile. ...

We were already staying in the neighbouring resort of Gouves. We decided that we wanted to check out this resort. It was a great decision. This is a beautiful, traditional Cretan resort. We decided that if we came to stay here for a couple of nights we wanted a nice accommodation. We booked a Junior Suite with the most amazing Sea Views. The room was clean, it has a fridge, safe and free air-conditioning...

The room was quite nice and the staff were friendly. Note that this is a satellite hotel of another one in the chain. It is a good choice if you want to save a bit of money as the “actual” hotel is a couple minutes away by foot. They connect along the “beach” path which is nice and you have full access to their amenities. The only complaint is that I wouldn’t really consider it a beach hotel, the building...

Thank you for awesome time Almare.. We stayed in beautiful, spacious apartments with 3 balconies, two bedrooms and big dinning room with kitchen. Our apartment was cleaned daily and the lady who did it put her whole heart into it. Breakfast was very good. Dinner could have more to choose from but we need to remember it is 3 stars place and it is the best 3 stars hotel I ever stayed. Staff. Very friendly...

Very nice hotel, quiet, graphic, clean, and helpful stuff. Oleg was great and helped us out a lot... See you soon!!

Quiet small hotel across the road from the sea. Without any frills, for a relaxing family holiday. The sea is shallow, but wavy. The rooms have a kitchen with the necessary minimum of dishes. There are not enough sockets, including in the kitchen, on the kettle and electric tile one outlet. Entertainment, except for the sea and a couple of bars with cocktails / hookahs, there are no any.

Trust no one, 10/10, Oleg is the manager, a really great person, he knows everything, he will tell you everything, peace and quiet reigns in the hotel, in the mornings they play Soviet cartoons for children, no drunken cattle, the whole hotel, as if on command, falls asleep somewhere in 11, in general, beauty, if you want a quiet retirement holiday, then this is your option: D the hotel is excellent...

Small hotel, ideal for family with children. I like it.

I had a great experience at Knossos. Excellent location, rooms, and customer service.

The place is beautiful! Very quiet and adult friendly. We had a few issues with our heated pool and they were remedied immediately. The food choices were outstanding and delicious. Customer service was excellent.

We had an amazing time in the hotel. Thanks to all the staff for making it great. The facilities are wonderful. The views are outstanding, especially at night. I love the cabanas at the beach. They have different foods each night in the buffet restaurants. The food is great with a wide range to suit everyone. Feels everything in the hotel is done with thought, and care for the well-being of the guests...

We had a fantastic stay at Knossos Beach! The food was very good. The Service did a great Job, staying very attentive, kind and helpful all the time. Only (very small) disclaimer was the Sounds of the Planes due to the proximity of the Airport. We highly recommend to book a room with a Cabana - it's absolutely worth every Cent!

We were upgraded to a bungalow upon arrival but couldn’t find the cabana reserved for it anywhere on the beach. The food was good at the buffet. We like to eat outside, but we were overwhelmed by the amount of cigarette smoke at almost every meal.

Nice place. Advertised as a five star but far from it. Staff friendly and helpful. Food good but DO NOT buy the meal package

We recently stayed at Golden Bay Apartments as a family of five. two adults, a teenager, a child, and a toddler and it was such a lovely experience that we’re already planning to return. When we first arrived, we were placed in a room that wasn’t quite to our liking in terms of the outlook. However, the staff couldn’t have been more accommodating and kindly moved us to a different one. The rooms themselves...

We have just got back from an amazing week at Golden Bay. We have stayed in Crete on numerous occasions but this is by far our best ever stay. Staying as a family of 5 we had a one bedroom apartment with 2 sofa beds. The apartment was a good size and the amenities provided within the room were spot on. The beds were very comfortable and the travel cot provided was excellent as well. The pool is a good...

We had a lovely relaxing week here. Our room was large with double balcony, plenty of storage in the bedroom. It is in a quiet place with a handful of restaurents 5 minute walk away, we walked along to the next village which took around 20 minutes and there are more restaurants on offer there. We were disappointed that the onsite restaurant was not open on an evening, as when we booked the holiday...

Amazing hotel and staff. Would defo recommend!

Looking at booking this place for September after reading all of your amazing reviews ❤️ We would be eternally grateful if someone could please share a food and drinks menu Thanks so much

We are currently half way through our stay(me and my daughter) From the moment we checked in, we had the warmest welcome! The day and evening staff are so warm and friendly and will do anything to make your stay perfect. They can arrange excursions for you. The room we’re staying in is a twin room with little kitchenette which has 2 ring hob, kettle and toaster and lounge area. There is a hairdryer...

The room was very clean, with fridge & tea making facilities. The beds were soft & comfortable. Have read other reviews about no hot water, but this wasn’t the case, there was plenty of hot water every day. Only downside was there wasn’t enough plug sockets in the room. Hotel staff are very friendly & helpful. I wanted to go into Heraklion for the day & was given a map & directions to help enjoy my...

The Dimitra Hotel is situated on the road into Kokkoni Hani down a short lane. It is about a one minute walk to a lovely small beach and a five minute walk to the village centre. It's a small hotel but a very tidy place both inside and outside and ideal for people who do not want the bustle of a big hotel. It has a very nice pool area, the rooms are well appointed and almost all have a side sea view...

5out of 5 Second Visits this year Staff very endearing nothing to much trouble Breakfast a fantastic selection Housekeeping 100% efficient Clean rooms with air-conditioning TV fridge and Tea and coffee facilities Good location, beach opposite and 10 minutes either way, there are sandy beaches

Great place! Simple but very cosy and had all amenities. Also very close to the beach and some taverns. The stuff was very friendly and nice and helped us with everything (from settling in our room to moving around tips). The breakfast was just excellent! It had everything! We highly recommend it! Great value for money. Thank you for the wonderful experience

Good hotel with breakfast a few steps from the sea, standard rooms, I stayed here three nights, buffet breakfast with sweet and savory, beautiful swimming pool and very friendly staff The small village of Kokkini is on the outskirts of Heraklion convenient for all trips, but it is not a very large and lively town, some shops, supermarkets and excellent taverns, parking in the hotel, equipped with fridge...

A decent budget-friendly hotel. The biggest benefit was the location (close to the airport and Heraklion) and how close it was to the sea. Everything was clean and tidy as well. However, there was a mold smell in our room, around the closet area. When we told the staff about it we were offered to switch rooms but the new one had the same problem. We managed the week by airing out our room and the closet...

This place is family run by some wonderful people. They were a joy to interact with. The pool was nice and clean. It's budget friendly which is a blessing when traveling with a strict budget. I would definitely stay here again.

Very clean and very friendly staff!!! Suggested to everyone!!!

Perfect and relaxing vacation hotel!Rooms are well furnished and staff lovely and ready to help!Amazing!!!!

The apartment was beautiful, clean with plenty of room, storage and beautiful views from roof top veranda. The location was very close to the sea front and many tavernas and beach front cafes and bars. The service at Kri Kri was second to none. George and Jenny who run it are superb hosts. They attend to every need and more. We felt like family. The pool was lovely and the evenings at the bar were...

Great Central location on Crete and very reasonably priced. It is also nice and quiet and set far enough away from the main tourist traps. There are bars, restaurants and a carrefour supermarket within walking distance in Gournes and is only around a fifteen minute drive from Heraklion Airport. The beaches nearby and along most of the North shore of the island are usually close to the main road and...

The owner Georgio is amazing. Thank you

Great place, affordable and close to the coast, with a bus stop right in front and small markets close by. The aquarium is great, and you can go walking by the coast.

Lovely place and an amazing host with the most Georgio (think that's how you spell his name) we stayed in the apartment and have absolutely loved our stay. Rooms cleaned spotlessly and grounds well kept. His food is lovely, Greek salad to die for and if you're lucky and ask in advance he will cook almost anything for you all home made (we had rabbit 10 out of 10). It's a great relaxing place with shutters...

Really like it, peace and quiet and clean. Location is a few steps to the beach and a host is a good person. Plenty of shops around and bus stop to Heraklion is 2 minutes away. It also has nice places for a coffee. I recommend to anyone who is in Kokkini Hani.

Very nice apartment, great value for money,it's located beachfront, in quiet area, nearby the supermarket. The room was very big, there is shower, kitchen fully equipped, bedroom and living room, the cleanliness very good. Very friendly staff. We definitely suggest this apartment. We had amazing sea view
