The hotel was lovely in general, big clean pools, lots of loungers, delicious and varied buffet. Having said that, we had several little niggles that added up to an overall okay experience. Firstly, we'd paid up for a private pool and unfortunately the room we were given never got any sun so the pool was freezing and we didn't use our private terrace (we were there in mid-Sept and it was only 20-24 each day with a cool wind so shade wasn't appreciated like it might be in summer). We told the reception about this and they insisted every room got sun, as if we hadn't stayed there and known...?
The hotel also didn't seem to encourage or support refilling our own bottles. We asked where we could do this and were given three new plastic bottles instead. We eventually found a cooler in the gym, but would have been nice if they promoted this more to save plastic waste.
One perk they offer is a pillow menu, but we were told it was "unavailable" during our stay. They also claim to offer a transfer to the airport, but we were told that was only if we stayed a full week. Staff were nice enough, but fairly unhelpful. We were often met with "I don't know" or shrugs when asking for things.
Perhaps we got unlucky, esp. with the room and private pool we hardly used due to lack of sun, but we don't feel we got value for what we paid and wouldn't go back.

The amenities of this hotel are amazing! The beach is not so welcoming and that's a pity but the pool is very nice. We had our room upgraded from a garden view to a pool view. The Half board service is wonderful. The variety of food and the service delivered it's top quality. I will come for sure if I visit west Crete again.

As I have a health condition I was looking for a good quality hotel in a quiet setting with easy access to good quality meals, I found this in the Avra Imperial hotel. My room was in the Residence Collection (Adults only) which was lovely and quiet with a stunning large pool, plenty of decent seating and restaurant/bar. I was upgraded to a room with a plunge pool and loungers, which was great as I spent a lot of time on my room's terrace. The reason I gave 4 stars for service and not 5 is that the staff who delivered room service, which i used several times, were unpleasant. This was in stark contrast to the rest of the staff, either reception, restaurants/bars or concierge who were extremely helpful and pleasant.

This is a nice hotel, it looks very impressive. Food both breakfast and evening meals are varied and good. We used one of the restaurants on site one evening, and that was very good. Everywhere is clean, tidy, and well maintained. We had a room with a swim up shared pool because we wanted our own space without the usual sunbed issues. Unfortunately, the patio and pool area was completely in the shade from about 1pm. We found the buffet restaurant area very loud, and it would have been nice to have some dress restriction in the evening. The tea and coffee wasn't refreshed after the 1st day, but water was supplied. Overall 4 stars.

We recently stayed six nights at the Avra Imperial Hotel, and our overall experience was fantastic. We would highly recommend it to anyone, but with a few caveats. We stayed in the adults-only section, which, as two adults traveling without children, we found essential. The atmosphere was noticeably quieter, and we didn’t have to deal with the usual competition for sunbeds. The separate buffet for adults was also a plus, though we found it lacking in options for evening meals.
The hotel's restaurants were exceptional, but it's crucial to book in advance to avoid disappointment. Unfortunately, we found the evening buffet food to be underwhelming. Our suite with a private pool was excellent, offering a peaceful retreat away from the busier main areas, especially in the afternoons.
Special mention goes to Maria at the adults-only pool bar—her service was outstanding. She was attentive, kind, and consistently thoughtful throughout our stay, and is a real asset to Avra.
In summary, the hotel is fantastic, but your experience will largely depend on your room choice, the area you stay in, and making sure to pre-book the restaurants to avoid relying on the buffet for dinner.

Such a beautiful place to stay, would highly recommend. The staff were absolutely amazing and the weather was just perfect, even in mid October! We went with our son who was 6 months at the time and he all
Had just the best time. Thinking of going back again! ✨🤍

Lovely pool and rooms (brilliant size for my husband and son). The overall look and feel of the hotel was great. The main point of disappointment was the service - none of It had the ‘how can we help’ approach (which you’d hope for, given the price) and none of the staff seemed like they wanted to be there. Also, for children, there was little activity aside from the holiday club - the other facilities were closed (without explanation) and the evening entertainment was very minimal. The overall app experience was disappointing (yet seemingly vital for bookings), and the restaurants were apparently full every night (despite being half empty when in them). It has so much potential but sadly very average.

One of the best meals I have had in Greece. The service, environment, music and food was incredible. We left our 5 star resort to visit here for dinner and were blown away.
Kudos to the ownership and team here for curating a truly unforgettable experience.

Really good 5 star hotel: large pools, excellent food, lot of nice personel, clean, no noise around a pool like in Turkey so you can really relax.
Bad things: beach must be improved with more sunbeds and better entrance to the sea. Not enough sunbeds around the pool so you have to get up at 6.30 to take sunbeds. Really unprofessional from the hotel that they don't have enough sunbeds so guests have to fight for them. You pay 5 000 euros for vacation and in a 5 star hotel at 8 am you can't find free sunbeds! Only because of this I would never come back nor recommend this hotel to my friends.

Amazing stay at this hotel. Beautiful pools, bars and restaurants. Everything is very clean. The staff are very friendly. Convenient shop on site with a lovely lady greeting you each day. She was very helpful. And the food options in the restaurants and buffet were great.
The children also had a lovely time.
We did all inclusive and I would definitely recommend it.
