Great club, many activities, wonderful pools, and different restaurants.
Could propose more choice in international wines... as frankly speaking the Cretan ones are not at level. ;)

Large hotel, good facilities. Poor for 5*
Great beach, nice pools, good architecture.
Poor service, old furniture, but generally clean. 2 lifeguards manning 4 swimming pools and large stretch of beach. No pool service, not able to change rooms despite being on the first floor with no lift and a baby+pram. Good kids club and entertainment.

Nice beach & pools, small and outdated rooms
The beach and pools are very good, we really enjoyed this part. Sports and evening program, kids club and disco was fantastic - the animation team is doing an amazing job. Reception and restaurants staff are friendly and really nice. You can order transfer from/to airport at the hotel - very convenient, and costs normal. Food was good. We could always find something for adults and kids. The disappointing thing was the bungalows (small and outdated, old and dirty shower, insects (ants) on the floor, strange non-breathable linens). Veranda was ok, and the view on the beach is unforgettable.

Passe grei overnatting i hotellkompleks
Ok for noen netter. Litt for nær motorvei, men nært strand og turområde. Litt for stort hotellkompleks. Mister nærheten til betjening og beboere. For stresset frokost med så mye folk.
