"Adult area in the pool was a good idea, as we were separated from the main pool."
"The hotel offers a 25 minute transfer from the airport and once you are there, it is set up to feel that you are in a Greek town."

I had an amazing experience at this hotel with great food options and a lovely atmosphere. The spacious rooms and variety of pools made it easy to relax, although the room I received was a bit further from the beach than I'd hoped. Overall, it's a fantastic resort, but a little further walking might be a consideration for families with small kids.

The resort offers a unique experience with its spacious accommodations and family-friendly atmosphere. The animation team and staff all contribute to a warm ambience, and the well-maintained grounds are delightful. Although the dining options could use improvement in quality, the variety is commendable. The pools are decent but not extraordinary, and the beach area could be cleaner, which slightly detracts from the overall experience.

My stay at the Creta Maris resort was fantastic! The atmosphere was vibrant and the layout was charming, resembling a Cretan village. The staff went above and beyond, especially in the dining areas, making my stay comfortable and enjoyable. Although the food options at certain restaurants were limited, the quality was outstanding. The diverse pools were a big hit, but it was a bit chaotic at times, especially around the waterslide area. Overall, it was a lovely experience, and I look forward to returning.
