The perfect stay in Crete. Great location, extrafriendly staff, good room layout, good size bathroom. Food was also excellent, with big portions. Beautiful pool, with a nice bar and restaurant. The beach and the river are also nearby. Everything was top notch. The jacuzzi in our room was a nice touch. The restaurant by itself is also high level.

We had a really lovely week with our 9 month old baby in a junior suite (with pool). The room was lovely, and worked perfectly for us with a baby, allowing us to relax during her naps. The main pool area is gorgeous too. The food was excellent, at the time of our stay it was a buffet but we were told they are going back to à la carte. The complimentary massage was a very nice extra and we rated the spa highly. The location is great, on the edge of Elounda. We walked in to the town which is doable along a lane (unlit) but easier when not baking hot. Taxis are easy and affordable. The hotel private beach is lovely and the shuttle to get there works extremely well. The staff are a true asset to this hotel. They really go above and beyond are are so so friendly and kind. They made us so welcome and were exceptionally lovely to our baby. Special mention to the guys running the breakfast, dinner and bar! A further special mention to Athina running the kids club who was wonderful! All in all: a gorgeous and calm boutique-y all inclusive hotel/villas and we would certainly return.

This is the second time we have stayed at Naiades Marina Hotel. This time it was our wending anniversary so we went for a room with a SPA. The SPA was positioned on a private balcony and was ideal. Monique was very helpful helping sort out some flowers and the other decorations they provided in the room were really good.

There are a lot of facilities for children, including toddlers: inside playground, outside playground, waterslides, beach playground and a really nice beach. The room was huge and had many shelf and drawers so you can have your belongings organized. The food was various and delicious, a lot of vegetarian options too. Everything was sparkling clean, even the inside playground was decently clean. You can rent bikes or go for walks in the town, which is not an usual thing for all inclusive hotels. The gym was well equipped and not crowded. Everyone was extremely nice from the restaurant stuff who never complained about my one year old making a mess at every meal to the front desk ladies who can help you with anything you need.

the hotel area is wonderfull. The organization of the Easter celebration was on a high level. The breakfast is very various and delicious. But the breakfast box (in case of early departure) disappointed me. The hotel managment should review the possibility to add hot meal in the box as the package is allowed to do it and the hotel level gives an expectation of such care. But it's just a recommendation. Despite of that our stay was amazing.

The perfect place for peaceful vacation. The city itself is nice but not something extraordinary, but you get the best food in Greece alongside the best beaches in the World! Try Psarropoula, Kakkos and all other beaches in Ferma area. Make beautiful trips to Chryssi Island or Agios Nikolaos (30min), Siteia (45min), Vai, Oropedio Lasithiou etc.

Probably one of the nicest place in Crete.

Probably one of the nicest place in Crete. In the south-east this small village with harbor and several taverns direct on the sea, which serve excellent food at a reasonable price has no overtourism until now. At the beautiful 3 km sandy beach, many very nice private App direct on the beach or above the harbor in the old town offer perfect locations to stay. Only at the end of the sandy beach away from the rest of accommodations a hotel complex offers an all inclusive stay.

The local restaurants are excellent.

The local restaurants are excellent. We particularly liked the 'Natural foods' one at the turn off for Mocholos, about 4 km from the village. This is a classic family run taverna. However, those in the village were almost as good. In October the place is still lively and pleasant.

Tiny village with a great atmosphere.

Tiny village with a great atmosphere. We attended to a traditional event, with cretese music and dances, and in the area you can find very interesting historical sites. The beaches are very close and nice (the coast is facing east, so there are no waves in case the strong wind is blowing). Our favourite beaches have been Kouremenos for windsurfing and Itanos/Paralia for swimming. The best restaurants we tried are Mythos in the village centre and Elia in the close village of Agathias that you can reach on foot in ten minutes. Pharmacy, restaurants, shops, markets. Here you can find all you need for a perfect stay!

Big sandy beaches. Good tavernas, we liked MeRaki. Istron is a "strip" of a village running along a main road. There are apartments and hotels up the hillside from the road, with not too much road noise. When rough you can hear the sea from your apartment. Apart from the beaches and eating places there is probably not too much else to do.

Largely a number of tavernas and rent rooms behind a mixed shingle / sand beach. It is quiet, as it is quite small, but this is because it is at the end of the paved road and due to government restrictions on development (to protect the Minoan palace site). So, if you want a quiet, relatively undeveloped location right on the beach, but with the benefit of a number of different tavernas to choose from and accommodation nearby, this is it. It is an excellent base for exploring the local area, especially if you like walking and/or historic sites.
