Kalimera Kriti Hotel & Village Resort

נהננו מהכל. הינו בחדר קו ראשון לים שמתאים מאוד לילדים. ברכות ענקיות. אזור גם של מבוגרים. בריכה רק למבוגרים. אוכל מגוון וטעים. צוות נחמד מאוד. אוירה שקטה ורגועה. כל ערב היתה תוכנית טובה. היינו גם בערב יווני עם מוסיקה ריקודים ואוכל מעולה. בטוחה שנחזור.

אין לי מילה רעה אחת. כשכתבנו שנגיע עם ילד עם כסא גלגלים הם קצת הסתייגו ואמרו שלא בטוח יהיה לנו נח ונבהלנו. למעשה היה מושלם. הצטערתי שסגרנו שם רק חצי חופשה.

Everything was targeted for an excellent family vacation

We spent a week at this property in a bungalow with a sea view. The facility is conveniently located, very clean, and well-maintained but somewhat outdated. The staff is excellent and helped make our stay enjoyable. The food is delicious, buffet-style for both breakfast and dinner, offering many options. The bungalow was very spacious, very clean, and had beautiful sea views. The atmosphere was quiet and relaxing. There was free bottled water in the room, but no other amenities. The resort is within a 1-hour drive of Heraklion and other major attractions on the island. The property features washing machines, indoor and outdoor pools, and a private beach. Very family-friendly. I think it’s a bit pricey, but I have not checked the prices in Crete. Overall, it was a good stay, although we prefer more hotel amenities.

A bit outdated.

Generally friendly staff Good size pool Beach is great with warm water and nice sand Buffet breakfast is good Doctor on site in the morning we liked Evening entertainment was generally pretty good fun Free tennis, mini golf & gym is very good (the gym is well fitted out with modern equipment) Bar drinks are well priced, so are snacks

Kid pool is pointless as it's 1 meter deep, so if you have a shorter child that doesn't swim it's worthless and the next size down is a baby pool 20 cm deep The room safe uses keys - this is awful as they sink if they fall out in the pool, get lost and can easily be stolen, so someone can access your safe if you lose your key. Upgrading to digital codes is an absolute must as people can't gain access if you choose your own code The door keys are also very out of date, most hotels use cards not physical keys, as again they can be lost more easily in a pool The wardrobes barely have any drawers - pretty rubbish for a family staying for a week or two (see pic) The bedside tables don't have any drawers, but appear to have what seemed like an old style record player facia (see pic) - very odd The 3rd bed was almost little more than a camping bed (see pic), the other 2 were singles pushed together No tea or coffee or drink making equipment in the room at all, not even a cork screw, nor any stationary The hotel doesn't really seem to want to make money as they don't properly publicise anything, yoga, on site photographer, you name it, they fail to sell it well The Spa is nice, but disgracefully over priced - 175 euros for massage is hysterical - again, they don't want to make money (drop the price 50% and it would be full) We really did ave a good 10 days and there is a lot going for it, it has a nice atmosphere, they don't rip you off except for the spa and there is plenty to do, BUT, it is no where near 5 star. Our room was very clearly a 3 star room that would NEVER be acceptable in a 4 or 5 star resort, there may be better rooms, but a 5 star resort starts with great quality and improves, not here. Frankly, with a little investment and some smart project management, this place could be awesome, but for now it's pretty average
