Agios Nikolaos Hotel Guide - Adventure Sport Hotels in Agios Nikolaos, Lasithi

Overall had a good time at St Nicolas Bay Resort Hotel and Spa. Positives were beautiful grounds, clean and new rooms (we stayed in the junior deluxe club sea view suite), a few options for eating at hotel, very good spa facilities and treatments; friendly staff; very good views, good restaurants within 15-25 minutes walk to town, few options for sunbathing (pools, beach and rocks), good parking facilities, and they kindly let us have a late check-out 19:00 pm. Less positives were food and service was mixed and pricie (I guess price is what you'd expect for a resort, but we found the quality elsewhere a lot better for much less). Our shower had really good water pressure but wouldn't drain / blocked so had to turn off during shower when washing hair. I travelled with my sister and we spent 5 days at resort, I had requested a twin bed room but they couldn't provide. Also very difficult to get sun-bed near the pool. You have to go early and put your towel down. Overall we loved Crete and the beach and weather was the absolute highlight!

The hotel is all you see on their site and more! The view is breathtaking, the hotel is super luxurious and the staff is so friendly and professional! Don't think twice!

The Mirabella Apartments have got it perfect. From the moment you book the holiday until you reluctantly have to leave, everything is just about perfect. Elizabeth from the apartments originally gave me a text for my email. She then gave me a very good email thanking me for the reservation and letting me know what to expect. Nearer my travel dates she then emailed full instructions of how to get there and what to do when I arrive. When we arrived, the room was ready and the view was breathtakingly gorgeous, the best room view I've ever had. The room had air-con, basic kitchen, bathroom with a shower (Hot Water was always available), double bed, wardrobe and a great little balcony to sit out on watching over the pool, the ocean and mountains/islands in the background. The room was cleaned regularly and the cleaning, bar and any other staff were all more than accommodating and friendly. Free Wi-Fi was available all over the apartments, it worked very well. We only ate there a few times towards the end of the holiday as we ate in town most evenings but should have dined there a little more often as the food was great from a presentation and taste perspective, and the price was the best value you could get anywhere. We had a car for our whole 2 weeks holiday and I'd recommend this as it makes it very easy to get around. But if not, town

We were lucky enough to book this hotel only one week before travelling at the end of July for 11 nights. Greeted with a warm welcome which lasted for the whole holiday - the reception staff could not have done more for us , booking taxis , tickets , sorting small issues out and giving advice. Rooms were cleaned every day. Breakfast was a decent selection of what you would expect with enough choice to mix it up each morning. We did B and B only but I`m sure the all inclusive would be good also.There was no fighting for sunbeds although they could possibly do with a few more. Free aircon ( first time ever in Greece ! ) and a free safe were nice surprises. The beach ( not sand ) is only a few yards from the hotel and the sunbeds are free for Expedia customers - everyone else paid ! We visited Spinalonga early in the day direct from Plaka to beat the crowds via the local bus service , Aqua Park and Agios Nicolaos - the latter being a little disappointing - very touristy and expensive food and drink. Each evening we walked into the centre which was a comfortable 15 minutes along a flat , newly laid promenade . It feels completely safe to walk around . I must mention one restaurant. On the way into Elounda , just before you turn into the main centre please try Okeanis. It is always empty but the food and service is fantastic - such a shame it`s in the wrong place. Overall , we had a great holiday and would recommend both the hotel and Elounda itself.

Lovely place, great welcome, restful atmosphere and superb views. Thank you Leda and all the staff for a beautiful time. Love Daniel and Rebecca

We booked a one bedroom villa for the Easter weekend and were upgraded to a two bedroom. The villa has everything you need and quite spacious. It has a lovely terrace with good size pool overlooking the sea. Our hosts Andonis, Dimitris and Andonis' daughter (I forget her name) were so amazing. We had breakfast in the hotel every morning where a feast was prepared by Andonis. They made us feel so welcome and nothing was too much trouble for them. We had a truly special time and I would not hesitate to return. I can only highly recommend these villas.

We really loved everything about Vangelis Villas. Our beautiful, comfortable and immaculate apartment gave us the perfect base for our family holiday, and we felt really well looked after - although the apartments are technically self catering, towels, toilet rolls, etc are provided, housekeeping come in daily and there's breakfast/dinner and a bar available if you need it. A nice selection of essentials (milk, water, tea/coffee and fruit) was also waiting for us when we arrived. The view over the bay of Mirabello is absolutely stunning, and the children loved the pool and the garden. The location just 10 minutes drive from Agios Nikolaos meant that we didn't have far to go to eat out or buy anything we needed, and there's so much to do in the area - the semi-submersible trip from Agios Nikolaos harbour was a particular highlight for us, and it's only about an hour's drive to Lasithi Plateau and the incredible cave at Dikti. There's something to do every day if you want to, but otherwise the villas are a really lovely place to just relax and enjoy the sunshine. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Vangelis Villas.

I should like very much like to visit again. Stairs, no lift, but I managed. breakfast was the usual modern boring buffet, with weak coffee, but satisfying. Dinner, on the other hand, was fantastic, with plenty of choices. Wish I had booked for more than two days.....hope to be back some time.

We booked our stay right at the end of the season, in the middle of October, but the weather was beautiful and it was still warm enough to swim in the complex's infinity pool. The suite was tasteful and comfortable and the staff couldn't do enough for us. The Argo restaurant was accomplished, if pricey, but visitors really must try The Ferryman in Elounda.
