Everything was absolutely perfect – from the room to the location, and the incredibly friendly staff. Design of rooms is very nice too! The SPA bath was a delightful highlight, and the variety of beaches in the area, with their different types of sand and rocks, made my stay at this hotel truly enjoyable.

Very nice hotel, with very welcoming people. Our room (106) had a wonderful view and was very comfortable. Everything was new and worked perfectly. Breakfast was very good - nice variety of classic things (eggs, fruit, yogurt, cereals), but also some local items (e.g. lychnarakia). Very nice beach under the hotel, reachable by going down a path with 40-50 steps or so. It was worth it and the hotel provides a portable umbrella for the beach. What was outstanding was the hospitality of the staff. Meeting every request with a smile and making us feel very welcome. Would definitely prefer to stay here again.

Excellent Stay at Galaxy Hotel in Ierapetra! We had an amazing experience at Galaxy Hotel in Ierapetra! The rooms are beautifully designed, combining aesthetics with practicality, and offer exceptional comfort. Everything was clean, modern, and well-organized, making our stay truly enjoyable. The staff deserves special praise – they were incredibly polite, attentive, and always ready to assist us with anything we needed. Their professionalism and friendliness made us feel truly welcome. Despite its central location, the hotel provides a peaceful and quiet atmosphere, allowing us to relax and unwind. It’s the perfect balance of convenience and tranquility. Without a doubt, Galaxy Hotel is the best choice in Ierapetra, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable stay!

The location was fabulous, sheltered sandy beach with water sports and close proximity to two local towns which both had an excellent choice of restaurants. The staff were all first class throughout the hotel and extremely polite. Our hotel room was perfect with the added benefit of shared pool which seemed private as the other two rooms adjoining us didn’t use. Would definitely return when next in Crete.

Almost everything! We especially valued the ample space on the beautiful hotel grounds. It is never crammed with people and there is lot of privacy for each guest. The personnel is absolutely great, exceptionally friendly (in a natural way), forthcoming and competent. The breakfast buffet was the best ever! You can also clearly see the difference from not being part of a hotel chain.

The hotel has an excellent location and service. We have been to the hotel three times in seven years and food, service and facilities are still as good. I even find some improvement every year. I especially appreciate good coffee, 100% juices and fresh orange juice. We like the wide range of food and the quiet at night, as there are no bars nearby.

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!

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.
