Sentido Amounda Bay

Comfort and convenience.

Nothing, I just wish we had more time to enjoy the facilities.

Good location, 7 min to the beach by foot. 15min to the Heraklion by taxi, bus station behind the hotel. Room feels new, bed is comfortable. Very beatuiful garden and pool area. Possible to do some watergym. Good food. Very clean restorant area, comfortable seats. Singers in the evenings.

We stayed in garden house, and there doors let a lot of noise through.

Overall this hotel is a great value for money. The food was good, and there was abundance of it. There was always something available to eat. The pools was great, there are 2 big pools and one shared pool with 2 other rooms that was quite than the others. The stuff were really nice. They let us stay at the hotel after the check out and we could use all the facilities of the hotel after and they also gave us a room to shower later with no extra cost. The tennis court is bug and has an amazing view. There was a lot of places to sit in the hotel and in the pools. We thought that it is a great value for money.

The cocktails weren’t good (although the wine and beer were good). Also, the beach is far from the hotel and it took us some time to find it. There was not a lot of vegetarian options at the dinner. Also there was a spider webs in some corners of our room.

- Food was excellent quality, especially for an all-inclusive - plus they changed dishes every night at the buffet. - No mad rush for a sun bed before even 10am - we even saw peoples’ towels moved before 9am which was nice to see a hotel enforce its rule. - Very comfortable sun beds - Everything was very well kept and clean, in particular the pools. - Good choice of all inclusive cocktails and we liked that they did a cocktail deal of the week! - Only a short 7 minute to the beach.

Not enough bar staff in the evenings which meant we queued sometimes longer than 20 minutes for a drink. I imagine they do this deliberately to limit how much you can drink, but it’s a bit of a shame to waste so much time queuing. It’s nice that they provide some entertainment but a lot of it was quite samey and it would be good to actually know ahead of time what’s on.
