Top Aptera Hotel Reviews

SanSal Boutique Hotel – Adults & Children 11+

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely property near the Old Town and Venetian Harbor. Easy walk to shopping and restaurants. Lovely rooftop bar and pool. Great place to watch the sunset. Great breakfast! Truly lovely staff. Would definitely return"

Oros Luxury Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"We had a deluxe villa with own pool. It was just a shame due to staying later in the season, we did not get the sun on our loungers and the pool was very cold. (Still tried it though!!) Suite was lovely, Breakfast was good, lots of choice. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Resort is close to main road, which was a bit annoying if sitting out. Overall though, could not fault the resort. However, walked along the nearest beach, and was very disappointed with the amount of rubbish and plastic around. Shame our tourist tax isn't helping with that!!"

Cretan Dream Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"The place is just wonderful"

Porto Veneziano Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"An hotel in a great location on the harbour waterfront. Possible for taxis to drive to the rear of hotel. All major attractions of beautiful Chania can be reached on foot within 10-15 minutes. I had a very decent sized bedroom with a balcony. Good quality linen. Bathroom also a decent size with roomy shower. Excellent breakfast buffet with wide choice of options. Cooked options to order - as with orange juice and coffee ! Evening dining options very well presented and delicious. Friendly and helpful staff with excellent service throughout the hotel. Highly recommended."
