Kernos Beach Hotel & Bungalows

My husband and I spent a long time choosing a hotel and settled on this one. We didn't regret it at all. We were very happy with our vacation. I'll start with the pros: large territory, lots of space and air. There are swimming pools and restaurants on the hotel grounds. The hotel has a gorgeous beach - a wide coastline, excellent entry into the water, a sandy beach. Sun loungers and large umbrellas - everything is provided by the hotel. There is a lifeguard tower nearby. The sea has waves, it's not scary to swim, there are no currents. The bottom is not very interesting, there are no fish, but this is for an amateur. There are a lot of couples with children in the hotel, children's pools. Very friendly staff. Delicious breakfasts (but monotonous), very tasty dinners with beautiful presentation. We booked a bungalow with a terrace - you could read a book on a sun lounger or drink a glass of wine in the evening in complete privacy and in the fresh air. The hotel also had its cons, but they did not affect our impression: the hotel is not new. There are renovations, but they are tired. You shouldn't expect modern renovation in the rooms - most likely everything will be in the color and texture of the wood. It's a matter of taste... The rooms are not very clean, there are stains on the floor, streaks on the mirrors, unwashed curtains. Although daily cleaning of the rooms was normal, no complaints, linen and towels were changed. There is practically no door to the toilet - just nominally, a partition and, as a result, no soundproofing. Well, the cherry on the cake - there was no toilet brush. Well, due to the coronavirus, the bars were closed, there was no interaction. The restaurant had to be rebuilt and made a serving table and service, like in a cafe, instead of a buffet, which significantly increased the workload of the staff and the waiting time. There are cats walking around the restaurant, so if you are allergic, keep this in mind. I recommend the hotel. I think you will be satisfied if you do not have high expectations and demands. The service is at a good level, very friendly people at the reception. I hope to come here again or send my parents)

We loved our stay, the hotel is very quiet, the location is perfect. You can admire the sunset while you eat. The staff is very nice, especially the restaurant's chef ! I highly recommand !

Best place ever you get everything there sea mountain beach love it and the food is amazing a big buffet 😁😁😁

Gently sloping beach ideal for families. Red flag occasionally on the beach due to wind/waves. Quiet family atmosphere. Little entertainment which is fine. Good food. Roast meat option nearly every night. Weekly barbecue.

Overall a great stay. The room was a bit small, no coffee service in the room. Booked the Superior Bungalow Sea View - we were pretty far back from the ocean. There were bungalows right along the beach area so not sure what the difference was. Otherwise the stay was great - excellent breakfast, staff was top notch.

We spent a week at Kernos Beach Hotel in Crete.
The hotel is nice and updated, spacious rooms and a really nice atmosphere.
The beach is spacious too, not too full with sunbeds.
The service is excellent, they are very friendly. Our airco was broken the first night, so to compensate us we got a bungalow with seaview.

Great beach,fine sand, warm water...a perfect Location for your vacation... Special thanks to Yanny and his stuff in the Restaurant..

Efharisto Kernos beach.

Excellent architecture lets you enjoy the spectacular view from the beach/pool.
Excellent cooks will show you that they can also cook you spectacular dishes besides an excellent buffet. I particularly enjoyed the amuse bouches .
The sea is kid friendly because there is plenty of low sea before the bottom gets lower.
Check in was a breeze, since the hotel was already prepared for us.
