Domes Zeen Chania, a Luxury Collection Resort, Crete
The staff is so nice! If you’re traveling with kids this hotel is perfect. They offer child care services for a very reasonable fee. The only downside for me is the gym was outdoor and way too small, but I’d still come back to this hotel. The rooms are cozy and spacious. We enjoyed so much our stay ...
