Staff was great we enjoyed the food I think the main draw back was it’s a very popular spot on hot days and there isn’t designated parking for people staying at the resort, so sometimes when we would come back it was really hard to find a parking spot

Lovely location. Nice resort, though a little dated and some degree of shabbiness. But the food was generally good, service excellent, the room was nice. We enjoyed our time here and would visit again.

This must have been an amazing all inclusive resort in the 1950s which appears to be the last time it was repaired. Still has great amenities like pools, scuba, food, yoga and entertainment but the rooms and facilities are pretty rundown and outdated. Still a good deal for the all inclusive stuff available if you can overlook that.

Beautiful location. Very cheap accommodations. Not as advertised. Rooms were terrible. Bathrooms were clogged and no one could fix them. Food was bad. It’s like management has given up on the place. I would visit for a day but not spend the night. We paid $360 EUROS for this place and I feel so ripped Off!!

This is not all inclusive! Continually expected to pay for things. Not enough staff. Food hit & miss and continually running out. Not enough crockery, cutlery etc. dirty tables. This is not a spa! No spa facilities. No cocktails. No food between set meal times. No drinks from bar in evening. Sheets not cleaned in 10 days. 8minute taxi drive to nearest town. All very tired and unloved / grubby / tatty

Gorgeous, quiet location.

I had a lovely stay here and would come again. I will say that while the property is clean and the staff take care of it, it does need a little lick of paint here and there but overall it is a beautiful location and a true place to relax and recoup. I was disappointed that there wasn't yoga classes as posted, but I was able to book a private class with a teacher, who was great. Booked with their masseuse a few times as she was WONDERFUL (Rose if I remember rightly) Handy swimming pool right outside my room (salt). And a little general store on site which after realizing that Plakias is a 15min drive away, was good to have on hand. Scuba diving in the cove was gorgeous and there was a little spot you could jump straight into the ocean near the main pool. The cove is not the beach however, the walk to the beach is about 20 minutes and up some very steep stairs. The view is amazing, but I'd recommend wearing solid walking shoes as there is loose gravel/rocks and the drop to the ocean is sheer. The entertainment was mediocre to be honest, and the location would benefit from a karaoke night in my opinion. All-inclusive does not include all drinks, beer and wine only. But the food was decent enough to not bother going into the town except for a treat. Great nudist beach nearby in Plakias, with regular beach down the road. Lovely little town.

Could do so so much better

Reception - nice welcome from the lady at reception, we went all inclusive but evening bar wasnt - false advertisement on the baord at reception as when we asked for ultra all inclusive they said oh sorry we dont do that anymore. Pool bar - was meant to open at 10.30 but it wasnt the guy will arrive at 11 and he would say that he needed 30 min to organise Pool areas floor SUPER DANGEROUS as the floor was super wet no sign for wet floor and tails are so dangerous- saftey 0 Sunbed old and dirty Food was ok they could do so much better, staff super tired and sorry to say to have white tops they should change it for all the services as some of their tops were yellow from sweat. Rooms old and dated, uncomfortable beds, smelly and leaking toilet. The only thing that save this hotel is the location and the view.

Room : 0 cleanliness i had the bungalow room , it was dust everywhere , mini bar looks like it was never clean for years to be honest , the bathroom was quiet okay. Restaurant : the quality of the foods was really poor , there was flies everywhere , you couldn’t identify what was what because there was no sign or no identification. Spa : it was a let down when we walk to the spa to spa table was disgusting, there was no privacy at all my it’s across of the gym , i don’t know should be calm a gym at all , it’s completely empty. Bar : it’s quiet okay they have a good selection of drinks , definitely enjoy it Overall this place have so much potential to be great , the views is amazing , they really have to step up ! the pool is amazing , the bathroom pool not at all they should have someone 24/7 there to keep it cleaning it. The staff is very friendly and helpful they help and told where i should go eat outside of the resort …… they shouldn’t call this place a resort because they have only 1 restaurants beside the view they have nothing to offer lol

Propre et calme. Les transats sont propres et disponibles. Ce sont les plus dispendieuses que nous devions payer. 20 euros pour ceux près de l'eau. Ceux près des piscines ne sont pas payants. Le buffet du déjeuner n'est pas très chaud et le personnel de ce dernier n'est vraiment pas souriant. Pour le repas du soir, il est BEAUCOUP trop cher pour ce qu'il offre avec peu de choix. Du fait que cet hôtel est assez isolé, il laisse peu de choix pour se nourrir. Moi je n'y retournerai pas

La vue, la mer et les piscines sont très belles. Mais les chambres étaient belles il y a 20 ans... pas du tout un hôtel chic... De plus, la formule déjeuner et souper inclu c'est un buffet de "tout inclu" vraiment très ordinaire.... Les chaises longues ne sont pas ajustables. On aurait voulu faire de la plongée et louer de l'équipement vers 16:00, mais la section de location était fermée. Le super market est un genre de bureau d'administration avec des choses à vendre... les lits sont ultras durs. La douche de notre chambre avait des tuiles changées un peu partout dedans; ça ressemblait à une vieille douche qui aurait dû être rénovée il y a 10 ans. Avec un rideau de douche en satin qui nous colle dessus... vraiment je ne recommande pas cet hotel. Vraiment trop cher pour ce que ça vaut.

Bien que les avis nous aient fait peur avant de réserver, il faut reconnaître que le site est un joyaux. Si le complément était neuf, il serait forcément inaccessible pour les gens de classe moyenne dont je fais partie . A ce jour nous avons payé l'équivalent de 200 euros/nuit en all inclusive et je trouve le prix cohérent. Bien entendu ne vous attendez pas à du caviar au self ni à des whisky 10 ans d'âge au bar... Si vous venez sur ces principes alors vous apprécierez votre séjour. Si vous êtes exigeants et êtes un habitués des complexe mêlant qualité et opulence alors ne venez pas ici vous serez forcément déçus. Si vous venez pour la beauté du site alors foncez. Il faut évidemment prendre en compte qu'il y a des problèmes d'évacuation récurrents mais j'ai trouvé l'intérieur de mon logement très correcte ( sans cafard etc comme ça a pu être ecrit ...). Il faut néanmoins faire un effort sur la restauration. La requention et le prix des locations doit forcément y jouer... Mais certains repas sont très limités,parfois indignes d'une cantine scolaire . Si je devais mettre une note à mon sejour, elle serait de 8/10. Profitez du cadre exceptionnel 👍👍👍

Umiddelbart ser det hele meget godt ud da vi ankom, men efter at have ankommet til den bestilte bungalow, kan vi ikke undgå at se den generelle nedslidning på hele hotellet. Det eneste positive vi kan fremhæve er pool-området samt personalet, der virkede til at arbejde med det de havde, og gjorde alt hvad de nu kunne. Aften buffét (20 EUR inkl vand) og morgenmad var under middel. Vi valgte at checke ud 2 dage før tid for at få et lidt bedre indtryk af Plakias inden vi skulle tilbage til Chania.

Die Anlage ist sauber und gepflegt. Vor allem hat man eine große Auswahl an Pools, wo man immer ein ruhiges Plätzchen finden kann. Auch mein Zimmer wurde regelmässig gereinigt. Leider hat das Bad eine Regendusche, die aber direkt vor der Toilette hängt. Somit wird das ganze Bad zur "Dusche" und ich konnte nur mit Flip Flops duschen. Ansonsten ist das Personal sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Preis/Leistung stimmt und das Essen auch.

Wir waren im August für 16 Tage als Familie im Kalypso Cretan Village Resort und insgesamt recht zufrieden. Die Anlage ist sauber, die Pools sind wirklich schön und die Aussicht einfach toll – perfekt zum Entspannen. Auch die Mitarbeiter waren sehr freundlich und stets bemüht, uns den Aufenthalt angenehm zu machen. Das Frühstück war in Ordnung, aber oft leider nicht wirklich frisch. Die Zimmer sind geräumig und sauber, allerdings schon etwas renovierungsbedürftig – hier könnte die Anlage in Zukunft aufholen. Insgesamt aber ein schöner, erholsamer Aufenthalt mit einer traumhaften Lage und viel Potenzial.
