Amazing hotel 10 stars, absolutely world class, the all inclusive has amazing restaurants and proper shaken cocktails. Really friendly staff. Impossible not to love it.

We stayed from end of September & We had a great stay and really would recommend this hotel, it’s beautiful, very clean & well kept, and offered a 5* holiday We stayed in the adults deluxe area which we cannot recommend enough, the adults pool & bar is stunning and very relaxing, there is lots of reserving of sunbeds early in the morning, we always got a bed between 8-9 but would all be full shortly after this The sunbeds all have tables & umbrellas next to them, and nice seating areas around the adults pool too Pool was cool but refreshing & nice options of the 3 smaller adults only quiet pools which were heated The sea is beautiful, lovely beach with clear waters, water sports available from the hotel including paddle boarding, kayaks & jet skis Lots of sunbeds on the beach although by late morning they were all full too. The adults pool/beach bar -sima was fab, with a friendly & efficient service from Ilias & Iosonas, great range of cocktails & the best coffees, there was also snacks available (salads, fruit bowls & sub rolls) water & soft drinks on tap, bottled water provided in the rooms each day We loved the adults cocktail bar of an evening, overlooking the pool & sea, really lovely setting with the most amazing cocktails & the best service from Niki and Giota. The buffet restaurant is excellent, the choice is great and we loved the adults only seating area which felt calm & provided a great drinks service with the friendliest staff The buffet was well laid out with sections to include fresh breads, salads, vegetarian options, meat, fish, other hot food, fruits, Greek pastries & ice cream and desserts All drinks were table service and it’s a lovely setting overlooking the sea Zambia & the other ladies in the buffet were amazing, so chatty & remembered your drinks order - their service was 5* We also tried the Mademi - grill a la carte which had delicious steaks & a great service The weather was lovely and hot, a few cloudy days/afternoons as we went into October. There are a few shops on site - gift/snack shop, jewellers & clothing shop The town is a few mins walk along the road or beach, lots of restaurants, bars & shops. We found the town to be a little dirty & dated and preferred the luxury of the hotel. The staff work tirelessly to keep the resort spotless, everywhere is so clean and tidy & they are all so friendly & welcoming the whole resort which is huge, the bungalows are beautiful & like a Cretan village, there is a hill and bridge up to the family water park, the crepe & waffle snack bar was nice, there were also golf carts to take you to this side as it is a little walk, however we felt this side of the hotel was a little more dated and could offer a whole different experience if staying on this side. Suggestions for improvements Overall we absolutely loved this hotel and have stayed at 4&5* hotels all around the world, we would say this is a true 5 star but there are a couple of improvements that could be made - more sun beds around the main pool and adults pool - We found the service to be very slow in the lobby - Bigger non smoking area in the cocktail bar (lots of inconsiderate smokers around) - Poolside bar opening one evening a week to use fire pit near adults pool - Manage the reserving of sun beds as lots reserved early morning and not used until afternoon!!

Het was een geweldige ervaring. Alles was oké. Ontzettend klantvriendelijke medewerkers voor wie geen moeite teveel is, heel veel vertier, fijne zwembaden, lekker eten en vlakbij de boulevard en de zee. Mijn zoon en ik kregen een gratis upgrade naar een appartement met vier kamers, een keuken met wasmachine, keuken en badkamer en een enorm dakterras.

The hotel is very good. Food, staff , all perfect. Dimitris from spa, give a great service i completely recommend to take treatment on the spa .. Ask for Dimitris.

We stayed at the resort 27th September till 3rd October in a deluxe adult sea front room and I must say our experiences were a little mixed The resort itself is absolutely beautiful it's as though you've been submerged into a Greek village and the staff are so welcoming especially Eva in the breakfast restaurant she really is a ray of sunshine. We ate in a different restaurant every night and the food and service is definitely 5 star along with the beautiful settings and the cocktails which are absolutely divine.......BUT We were disappointed in not only our room but most definitely in the cleaning of it I'm afraid these things let the resort down .For a 5 star resort the rooms looks tired and in need of some major TLC , whilst looking for a shoe I saw that under my bed all the underside was ripped and hanging off and having 2 single beds that moved every time you changed position didn't help towards a good night's sleep As for the cleaning I'm afraid apart from straightening the bed and changing the towels nothing else was touched , we left empty water bottles on the side and by the end of the holiday these were still there also j had to rewash coffee cups and glasses as most days these weren't changed or cleaned and the new coffee pods were just thrown onto the side ( I know might sound picky but in a 5 star you expect a little more care Also don't expect a sunbed round the adult pool as these were taken by 7.30 most mornings we eventually did find 2 on our last day and quite frankly they were so dirty and stained that even with towels down you wouldn't want to lay on them Would I visit the resort again ? For the resort itself then maybe yes it's beautiful and the setting stunning But I'm afraid not for the rooms they are definitely more a 3 star standard of room which is a shame as everything else is so amazing

Εξαιρετική εξυπηρέτηση, άριστη φιλοξενία, θαυμάσιες υποδομές, κορυφαίες γεύσεις, μοναδική εμπειρία! Συγχαρητήρια στην Μαλαματενια (reception), στην Κυριακή (στην φροντίδα του δωματίου), στην Φραγκίσκη (Athletics), στην Ardita (Alatsi). Το ξενοδοχείο και το προσωπικό του, αποτελούν υπόδειγμα του Greek hospitality! Keep up the good work! Ευχαριστούμε για την εμπειρία!

Excellent service, very profesional. My therapist name is Stela, very . recommended The place is clean with relaxed , atmosphere

Stayed here for a week in September and thoroughly enjoyed being at Creta. The hotel is just a few minutes walk away from the town with great bars and shops, handy if you fancy a change of scene. Its seafront location is beautiful and the beach was well kept. Yes a few stones in places but it wasn’t challenging to get past them as the water is crystal clear. Was very kindly upgraded to a pool view room free of charge, a lovely surprise. The resort is huge and you’d be wise to familiarise yourself with the layout as certain things are only available in certain locations; the waffle and crepe bar is at the back of the resort, the Aperol bar only serves Aperol and soft drinks and the water games are only played in two designated pools. Once you’ve learnt where to go for what it’s no bother though and the grounds are beautiful so the walks are enjoyable. The selection of food in the main restaurant were overwhelming! I’ve not had better quality or a wider range at any other 5* resort. The selection of bookable restaurants is great too and although I did have issues using the app the Reception staff were lovely and helping in securing me bookings. In fact, every member of staff I spoke with was lovely. I didn’t have any issues getting a sunbed at the main pool or the beach, people seem to forget that there are several pools so I don’t think it’s fair to moan about limited availability at the ‘main’ one. The drinks are all branded and there is a fantastic cocktail menu! Salad bar and fruit station were great to mentally off set the consumed cocktails!! I did hope for a better entertainment programme, I enjoyed a Grecian show one evening but it was typically a music act running between 9-11pm so don’t expect any bingo or talent contests! There are several elevated bars which overlook the sea and the hotel doesn’t have neighbours so it feels as though the whole cove is private. The bathroom products were from a lovely honey range (shampoo, conditioner and body wash) and there were some complimentary welcome kits left, cotton buds, shower cap, razor etc. Fresh towels and the room cleaned every day unless you ask otherwise and a soft, fluffy dressing gown and pair of slippers were also provided in the room, as well as complimentary water and soft drinks refilled in the mini bar every day! The service from Creta was second to none and the resort is so pretty and well kept. I was taken to my room in a buggy and helped with my case and given a great experience at the spa on my final evening. Yes, as with many of the other reviews, I was caught off guard by the adult only exclusive area but the facilities and grounds are so nice everywhere else, it didn’t make me feel like a peasant whatsoever! I had a magical break at Creta Maris and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to others, I’ll very likely return :)

My wife and I went here in September 2025, having booked last minute following a very difficult year. We went with TUI. From the moment we arrived we were treated fantastically, with reception staff helping us with bags to our room. We stayed in the main hotel part. Nice touches included a Nespresso machine in the room and a minibar which is free to use, although you'd be charged i believe for restocking. The pool area is spotless and there are a large number of bars and eateries right next to the pool, including the fantastic Aperol spritzer bar! You get one free a la carte meal, and we went to the steak restaurant (fantastic!). You also get a free cinema ticket which is also a lovely touch (there is a large outdoor cinema amphitheater). The main restaurant has the tastiest food i have ever known in an all-inclusive resort. But the best aspect is the friendly staff. Special shout outs for Cristos (Aperol Spritz bar), Aggeliki (downstairs bars), Emanouella (pool bar) and Micalis (a Chris Pine lookalike also at the pool bar). The only minor shame is thst there are nowhere near enough poolside loungers, and also, it was very difficult to get a seat at the adults cocktail bar. Also, watch out for rooms 402, 403 and other areas at the back, overlooking the road and mountains. The hotel extractor vent is very loud when you're out on the balcony. But these points in no way detract from what a fantastic resort this. PS recommend the TUI booked 4x4 safari with Chris. Great fun and v interesting. We WILL be back.

goed verzorgd resort en zeer vriendelijke mensen, eten zeer goed en goed verzorgd en afwisselend, huisje vonden we niet goed, te ver lopen berg op en kregen direkt een andere kamer in het hotel zelf ga hier zeker een keer terug met familie

We recently stayed at Creta Maris for a family reunion, bringing together four families from Europe and the Middle East — three generations in all. After thorough research, we chose this resort and couldn’t have made a better decision. The team at Creta Maris took the time to understand each family’s needs and matched us with ideal bungalows. The result was a seamless and truly memorable five-day stay that delighted toddlers, children, parents, and grandparents alike. We’ve only just returned and already miss it dearly — we will certainly be back. What makes Creta Maris so special? • A genuine 5-star, family-friendly all-inclusive experience • Beautiful, village-style architecture with whitewashed buildings, stone paths, bougainvillea, olive trees and fountains — all creating a truly enchanting atmosphere • Spacious, peaceful grounds that never feel crowded • Excellent food and drink, with multiple themed restaurants overlooking the sea or mountains • A generous all-inclusive package offering great value and variety • Warm, attentive staff who made us feel welcome throughout • Endless activities for all ages, including seven pools and a stunning beach Highly recommended for anyone looking to create lasting family memories in a magical setting.

הכל היה מדהים, שירות מושלם, אין צורך לצאת מהמלון היינו 5 ימים עם ילדה בת שנה וחצי ונהננו מכל שניה, יש מלא דברים לילדים, אנשי צוות אדיבים. ממליצים מכל הלב -

Very good food, kind staff. A thing to consider is that the resort is huge and your room might be a good 7 min walk one way from your room to the restaurant, beach etc - The weight lifting gym open only form 9am until evening and closed all day on Sunday.

הנקיון, השקט, היחס האדיב של הצוות. המרחבים, הטיפוח הניכר בכל מקום. הצמחייה הפרחונית, הריחנית. החדרים מאוד נוחים, המרפסת הקטנה נעימה ומאפשרת לצאת לנשום וגם לייבש את בגדי הים. - - אין לנו תלונות. הייתי מצפה לערב של מוזיקה יוונית אותנטית. -

The Al Carte Restaurants were amazing. - Pools were cold!

Дуже велика територія. Схоже наче це не готель, а невеличке селище. Аутентичні номери. Басейни біля амфітеатру був з підігрівом. Смачна їжа, більшість їжі готуюсь прям при вас. Гарні коктейлі, особливо в вечірніх барах. На вечерю ми ходили у ресторани, які бронювали завчасно, дуже смачно, окрім BBQ. - - Готелю треба змінити свою політику з приводу лежаків біля басейну та на пляжі. До 9:00 ранку на центральному басейні та пляжі лежали рушники, а людей не було, вони зʼявлялися десь о 12-13:00. Одноманітні розваги ввечері, були сумно. -

Everything was just perfect. Location, facilities, food, staff.

Lovely experience Dimetri was brilliant and calming, the spa is a lovely place to relax and chill out would defo recommend

Went to Aegeo spa was exactly what I needed very professional and skilled would highly recommend when you’re here at Creta Maris

Perfekter Aufenthalt, es gibt nichts zu meckern. Das Personal, die grosse Auswahl an Speisen, unterschiedliche Sportmöglichkeiten und eine gepflegte Anlage sorgen für eine schöne Zeit. Zudem haben wir beim Check-In ein kostenfreies Upgrade erhalten (Zimmer 10m vom Meer entfernt). - - ----- -
