Unbeschreiblich schön

I visited this hotel over 10 years ago and it was great then, but the recent renovation has added even more. Spotlessly clean and the customer service is second to none. Definitely worth downloading the app as it makes booking all of the specialist restaurants easy and convenient (would recommend visiting all of them) ! I have already booked to go back in 2024

Huge hotel, good service, no hidden extra cost, great view and beach, lots of shows and entertainment.

Don't think about it, just go! This is hands down the best all inclusive hotel I have been to. I am not usually one to go for an all inclusive as I am not a fan of the food or limited spirits but I went in October with a friend (in our early 30s) and was blown away. Food - We loved that you could book each of the a la cartes once during your stay rather than having to pick one like with most places, the food at each was amazing and in some instances grown on their organic farm. We were especially happy with the steak/grilled meat restaurant (Mademi) and Platia. It also felt nice to get dressed and walk to an a la carte restaurant like you were going out for dinner rather than just buffet eating vibes all the time. Having said that, the main buffet restaurant (Enomy) had amazing Greek food and we had to stop ourselves from over eating, we looked forward to every lunch and dinner we had here. We did book the other buffet restaurant one night and wished we just gone to the main one instead as it just a smaller version and with less choice. The availability of day time snacks including ice cream and gyros and crepes was perfect. Note, the crepe/waffle bar is away from the main pool and is part of the bar near the entertainment stage. Drink - The cocktails offered at this all inclusive, while not standard cocktails, were lovely and it was nice that there was an adults only cocktail bar too. I didn't feel as though anything was watered down or cheap which added a real touch of luxury. The Aperol spritz bar by the main pool was the perfect addition for us during the day and an example of premium alcohol being used rather than having to have a typical 'vodka and coke' etc. Entertainment - day time entertainment was excellent and there is an app which shows you everything on that day and where, including tours of their onsite organic farm! The waterslide area is perfect for keeping kids (and some adults) amused. I would say there are enough pools (more than 10) and some quiet pools so more than enough space for everyone especially when you consider the private beach as well. Most of the evening entertainment was good but the quiz night was chaotic and needed work. We were happy sitting in the cocktail bar paying cards most evenings as the entertainment was finished by 10. They do have mini golf and other bits but we didn't use those. We did also go right towards to closing for the season and so I imagine it was a bit quieter than the height of summer in terms of evening entertainment. We did hear that over the closure this winter they are renovating the entertainment area. Overall, we wouldn't hesitate to go back here and you can tell the owners really care about what they are offering to guests. Our only gripe is how expensive it would be to go over summer.

We visited the Creta Maris Resort for a second time in October 2023 for 6 nights and after our amazing stay in 2022 we were looking forward to returning to this beautiful resort. We arrived late evening (though earlier than last time) and we had enough time to check-in and also have some supper at the late restaurant, which was needed and was very much appreciated. Should say that check-in was very smooth and on our arrival the staff were again very welcoming and helpful getting us to our room. Again we were taken to our room by a buggy car though our journey was much shorter as on this occasion we opted for a sea view room in one of the bungalows (though our room was on the first floor) in the Plakoura area of the resort which after our visit last year we really liked as this was a quieter part of the resort right by the sea. Should also mention that this is a perfect spot to sit with a cup of tea in the morning and watch the sunrise which is a personal highlight for me and one morning in particular provided the most spectacular sunrise I have ever seen! Our room was very quaint and again we were pleasantly surprised just how spacious the room was. The room itself gave the impression of an old style village stone house and was very clean, cosy and very welcoming. The only slight negative was that the balcony was on the small side though the view made up for this! On our first morning we began to familiarise ourselves with the extensive grounds again and also noticed the changes from last year and what actually was on offer on this fabulous resort. The grounds were immaculate as ever, beautifully kept and very clean. there are plenty of olive trees, oleander plants, and my personal favourite, bougainvilleas all over the resort providing a magnificent landscape. The resort has plenty of restaurants (though not all open for all meals at the same time) along with additional snack points and a few other bars. Yet again our overall favourite restaurant was the Estia Restaurant though we also dined at the Enomy restaurant and for one evening at the Mademi Restaurant which has outdoor seating right by the sea (which I have to say is a perfect picture postcard setting). The food choices were also very good and all the different restaurants have a large enough selection though in our experience it was not as good (or varied) as last year, this may have been due to the fact that it was very close to the end of the season but it was certainly noticeable that there was more repetition than on our last visit. One slight disappointment was that it was a shame the Cochlias restaurant no longer exists, which had been replaced by the Mademi and Alatsi restaurants. Our personal view was that the Cochlias offered the perfect outdoor gastronomic experience of Greek and Cretan cuisine and we were somewhat underwhelmed by the Mademi. Although this restaurant has been pitched to offer a high end experience the food was a bit of a let down, with the rather inadequate starters and deserts being saved by a decent main course. The snack bars during the day however, did not disappoint particularly the Waterpark Kitchen & Bar. As the title suggests this was by the swimming pool and waterpark section of the resort. The Waterpark pools were again always popular and with good reason. In terms of entertainment (especially with children in mind), there are so many activities provided by the resort. The resort also has its own football pitch, basketball court, 2 tennis courts and a mini golf course. Although personally not fussed on too much evening entertainment again this resort has plenty to offer particularly again for children though it was a shame that the open air cinema closed in September. Should say that none of the activities and service in general could not be made possible if it was not for the staff who are a credit to this resort. The service provided was again exceptional and was very much of what you would expect at such a resort. It was great to see Kostas again in the animation team and once again provided a consistently excellent level of service and was brilliant with the children, really getting involved and seemingly enjoying every activity, particularly the football sessions. Also wanted to thank Sotiris and Anna at the Estia restaurants for their wonderful attentive service and it was lovely to see Maria again, also at the Estia. Also wanted to say thank you to Melina who was responsible for house keeping, an absolute credit to the hotel, would often have a brief chat and was very friendly. Also for their great service, thank you to Katerina at the Enomy restaurant and Juliana at the Vegera Bar. As with our last visit we had a late flight home and we requested a late check-out which on this occasion was provided free of charge, for which we were pleasantly surprised with though very grateful for. It really helps to enjoy your last day as having your own room until you leave really does make a difference. I would like to take this opportunity to once again say ευχάριστο to the Creta Maris team for another wonderful stay which coupled with the fabulous late October weather in Crete, we thoroughly enjoyed, would certainly recommend and will hope to visit again in the future.

Io, il mio compagno e la mia bambina di tre anni abbiamo soggiornato dieci giorni in questo fantastico resort. Essendo del mestiere non è facile per noi trovare una struttura che riesca a rispondere a tutte le nostre esigenze e a garantire tutti gli standard qualitativi che desideriamo. Abbiamo provato tante strutture ma personalmente non abbiamo mai trovato nulla che possa essere paragonato al Creta Maris Resort. Il resort è grande ma il personale è estremamente gentile e ha garantito alla nostra bimba sempre un sorriso e un'attenzione particolare. Il cibo è ottimo così come i cocktails. Buonissima anche la carta dei vini extra. Pulizia impeccabile sia della camera che degli spazi comuni (unico piccolo neo la pulizia della palestra che non è all'altezza del resto della struttura). Che dire, noi siamo rientrati da alcuni mesi ma non facciamo altro che pensare a quanto siamo stati bene al Creta Maris Resort. Oltre a questo, la mia bimba non vede già l'ora di essere di nuovo vostra ospite...ci vediamo il prossimo anno! Grazie per averci fatto passare una vacanza indimenticabile.

We had a lovely holiday at Creta Maris. Staff are absolutely brilliant, special mention to the lovely Anna at Estia restaurant- she is so welcoming and kind and really goes the extra mile. Thanks so much, Anna! The resort is beautiful, so many pools and lots of activities. We used the gym and sports facilities, which were brilliant with our active kids. The animation and sports facilities hotel staff are wonderful. The location is great and it is easy to take day trips out to see historical sites, such as Knossos palace or local attractions, like the nearby reptile rescue centre.

The best all inclusive hotel resort providing everything you could possibly want for a family holiday. There was a great selection of food including a la carte restaurants. The resort offers all day activities for adults and kids, a Waterpark and several pools, some even heated. I attended the daily yoga and also enjoyed a mystic greek massage at the hotel Spa- Dimitris was very professional and offer me all the information I need. Our room was very clean and spacious. I would definetely recommend this hotel!

A wonderful hotel resort providing everything you could possibly want for a family holiday. There was a wonderful selection of food, beautifully presented and served by attentive, friendly and helpful staff. Our son had a great time at Kid’s Club, the Water Park, the playground and the numerous pools. I attended a couple of fun Step classes and daily yoga with Julia, who delivered enjoyable and varied practices for all abilities. Our room was clean and comfortable with a lovely view of the beach. I would thoroughly recommend Creta Maris as it has something for everyone.

Had a foot massage. Dimiteris was great and attentive. He also gave me advice as to how to manage my lower back pain. It was definitely a worthwhile experience that I would recommend to anyone considering a spa treatment. Also a big thanks to Melanie who make the booking. She was excellent.

Hervorragendes Hotel. Das beste aus 5, die wir während unserer Kreta-Rodos Reise besuchten. WLAN auf dem ganzen Gelände sehr gut. Parkplätze. Sehr komfortabel. Personal immer sehr freundlich. Super leckeres Essen, in den a la Karte Restaurants sogar gehoben, manchmals Feinschmeckerniveau. Ein Restaurant ist Bio. Mehrere Restaurants mit Buffets, immer die Qual der Wahl, wohin zu gehen, weil überall verschiedene und sehr große Auswahl. Frühstück und Mittagessen sind ausgezeichnet. Am Strand ein Kiosk, wo man Aperol-Spritz immer nachtanken kann. Mehrere Kiosks mit Snaks und Bars in der Strand Nähe. Sehr großes Gelände, wir waren im entlegendsten vom Strand Gebäude untergebracht. Fußweg zum Strand ca. 7 Min, sehr angenehm. Viele Pools. Es gibt eine Futterstation für die streunende Katzen, sehr beliebt von Kindern. Auf dem Strand kann es mit den Liegen bei Vollauslastung etwas knapp werden. Sonst nichts einzuwenden.
