Great club, many activities, wonderful pools, and different restaurants. Could propose more choice in international wines... as frankly speaking the Cretan ones are not at level. ;)

Large hotel, good facilities. Poor for 5*
Great beach, nice pools, good architecture. Poor service, old furniture, but generally clean. 2 lifeguards manning 4 swimming pools and large stretch of beach. No pool service, not able to change rooms despite being on the first floor with no lift and a baby+pram. Good kids club and entertainment.
