Silva Beach Hotel

We have stayed at this beautiful hotel for a number of years now and love everything about it. The hotel’s Manager and Assistant Manager, Haroula Zervou, are the loveliest, most friendly and helpful people and all the staff are so friendly and welcoming and can’t do enough for you to make your stay the best it can be and we are always welcomed back like old friends. Eleni, on reception is always so helpful and friendly, as is Sissi. The food is amazing, lovely Greek food especially, but there is something for everyone. The pools are so clean and kept beautifully and so inviting. The hotel is more like a Cretan village, with pretty little pathways adorned with beautiful trees and plants all the way around. Wherever you are in the complex you only have to walk a few steps to reach the beach and promenade walk to other bars and restaurants and in the other direction,through reception to the street for the shops. The restaurant Manager, Lefteris, has been at the hotel many years and keeps the restaurant running so well and is always so welcoming and very friendly. The Pool bar and beach bar are run by Zacharius and Kostas, who again, are both super efficient and have been there many years and greet us like old friends, which is lovely. Everywhere is kept so clean at all times and the beds are very comfortable and the walk in showers are very good for anyone with mobility issues. We have been to many Greek islands and this hotel is the best and friendliest we have stayed at, we highly recommend this beautiful hotel/complex.

Arrived late in the evening staff were very friendly we had a nice ground floor room with a terrace where it was nice and quiet. Room was a bit dated but was comfortable and clean. Bathroom had a couple of issues loose toilet seat and plug in sink broken we did report but it didn’t get fixed properly but didn’t spoil our Holiday. Food was excellent a lot of choice at breakfast, Lunch and dinner with Greek specialties every evening. Pour yourself beer and wine in restaurant which was good. Tried the Al a carte restaurants Italian and burger but wasn’t impressed the Buffet restaurant was better. Sunbeds were always busy some people putting towels on beds early and not going on them until mid afternoon which I think should be policed better. But we did get sunbed most days. Nice cove at Scorpio beach for swimming to use if you don’t use there sunbeds there is no charge just walk down the path to it to the right of hotels beach pool. Staff friendly and efficient Pety in the bar and Maria front of house in restaurant always smiling. Will definitely be back.

Silva beach hotel was recommended to my sister in law and I after asking Tui for a hotel with a beach which we could access easily and have regular swims.On the first day of our holiday we walked down to find the hotel had no beach, sand yes abd loungers but then just rocks and low cliffs which made it almost impossible to enter the water, so having a swim 5 minutes down from our hotel was not possible There was a little cove at the hotel next door but u had to pay for their sunbeds and the walk down to it was dodgyy including a huge pit in the middle of the path covered with a few old planks We tried the hotel on the other side this turned out to be too rocky and slippy and the steps accessing the beach had no safety rail.After my sister in law fell off the steps and ended up in a wheelchair we found 2 other people who had fallen on the same steps trying to find a beach as they like us thought the hotel had one The ramps at the hotel are not fit for purpose They are so steep it took strong men assisting us to get her back up the ramps after leaving the restaurant which is at the bottom of a steep hill The first couple of days the porters helped us but then the reception told us they were not coming anymore so we had to rely on some very strong holiday makers to help us.Dont go there if ur in a wheelchair disabled access is hopeless. The staff were very helpful at mealtimes and cleaning our room.The bar staff were lovely The main pool got very slippy and u had to go by it to get to the bar.The railings down into the pool were loose and shook.The food was ok but didn't change much from day to day we got bored with it. The evening entertainment was ok but not much variation same people all the time. The place was very pretty but health and safety didn't exist . Would not go back again

We stayed at the Silva Beach, as an older couple, in early October. Check in was easy although a bit of an ouch for the hotel tax and the hire of a room safe. The receptionist tried to insist on cash for the hotel tax but was out of luck as I did not have enough euros. Paid by credit card instead. We were taken to our room by a lovely guy who pointed out where things were in the grounds as we went along. He also carried our cases up to our first floor room. The rooms are perfectly adequate, very clean with a very comfortable bed. It needed a bit of slight TLC in that a lick of paint would not go amiss and the bathroom door did not close properly. Presumably this will be dealt with in the close season. No issues with hot water and the housekeeper did a great job every day. We asked for a quiet garden room and it was just that apart from the odd drunk who needed a volume control. Be aware though, the walls are very thin! Food is excellent with lots of choice and a bias towards Greek dishes which we totally enjoyed. Asian Corner made a nice change too. We tried both the bookable al a cartes and both are worth a visit. Pizza in the Italian is very impressive. Drinks are adequate, beer and wine are both palatable. Spirits are local and are weak which is understandable as they do not want people legless drunk. Some people did treat it as a challenge though. There is supposed to be a dress code in the restaurant but it is not enforced even though the Hotel matrie de is always present. It is a nice restaurant and the ladies make a real effort to dress up but the men do not bother. The way some dressed, Wetherspoons would have turned them away. Top tip, go to dinner when it first opens or you will be queuing outside. Usual sun bed warriors who think they will die if they do not get the same sunbed every day. There were sunbeds always available away from the pool but the hotel was not full. Peak season I guess would be a different story. The grounds are beautifully kept and are a pleasure to walk around. Staff are wonderful never came across a miserable one. They cannot do enough for you and the smiles brighten up your day. With a little investment and some tweaking this hotel would be excellent. I have marked it down only because of the sunbed situation and the lack of dress code enforcement. If you have rules, enforce them or get rid of them and create a fair playing field.

Just returned from a weeks stay at this hotel, the reception was very pleasant, Konnie on the desk was very polite and helpful, the porter was polite, he even came out of the hotel, crossed the road to fetch our cases. Once in the room it was spacious and spotless clean, pool towels were already on the table, and water in the fridge, air conditioning was already switched on. The hotel was very Cretian looking as we walked around the grounds which made it feel really inviting and relaxing, the pool bar was great, ZACK was brilliant and nothing troubled him to have a good conversation with him, the main buffet restaurant was amazing, if you couldn’t find anything to eat here there must be something wrong with your taste of food, the variety was excellent. Morning, noon and night.it was the last week of the hotel before shut down, we thought the quality of food might of dropped off abit with so little guests BUT NO IT DIDNT !!. The quality kept the same (perfect). The staff in the restaurant were fantastic, polite, smiling, and soon as your plate was finished with it was taken away, the place was spotless. Also the weather gods must of been looking down on us because we had hot weather all week, 24 to 30 degrees, brilliant just what us brits need before we go into our winter 🥶. We would highly recommend this Hotel it’s a beautiful place, it’s not a concrete jungle, as I said earlier it’s very Cretian, warm and welcoming. Xx

We stayed as a family with two teenagers in the last week of the season. We arrived at 11.30pm and we were escorted to our room. We were pleasantly surprised to find four meals in the fridge and bottles of water . This was very welcomed. The room was a great size and very clean. You would never have known this was the last week as the staff were very attentive and there was a lovely welcoming atmosphere. All the staff were friendly and helpful. We thought the food was fabulous - lots of choice and we enjoyed the Asian corner, Prime Burger restaurant and the situation of the Italian on the main road made it feel like we’d eaten out . Both pools were spotless and well maintained and the views of the beach, sea and mountains are stunning. There are sun beds on the beach if you prefer, however it was very accessible from those by the pool. The hotel has the feel of a little tranquil village with all the cobbles, walls and separate buildings, however there was still atmosphere and music/entertainment in the evenings if you wanted. We all really enjoyed it and would all stay again. The beautiful cats sleeping on the walls also seemed to look as happy and relaxed as we felt.

We recently had a holiday at the Silva Beach Hotel and would like to say how fantastic the hotel and staff were throughout our stay. The reception staff/porters gave a very warm welcome when we arrived and offered a thorough guide of what the hotel had to offer. The hotel was in a great location with public services virtually right outside the hotel if required. The room was clean and comfortable with double and single bed with a nice patio area outside overlooking the pool. We went all-inclusive and were not disappointed. The food and choice each day was fabulous and special mention to the executive chef . As a coeliac who requires to eat gluten free food the executive chef took time out everyday to go through my dietary needs. Nothing was too much trouble for him and for that I was truly grateful as that was my main worry travelling. The facilities were first class with choice of the two pools and more than enough sun beds to lounge around on with even more by the beach area. The hotel staff even left a birthday cake and lovely letter in our room which was amazingly thoughtful and really showed they care about their customers and make sure they have a great stay. Big thank you for the gesture.. Thanks again Silva Beach Hotel for making this a fantastic holiday and definitely hope to return in the near future.

My husband and I enjoyed another stay in this nice hotel . This was our 6th stay here arriving late on 30th September for 9 nights . We were in a nice room we’ve been in before as it’s got such a lovely view from our balcony . We were taken to our room by the nice porter . All the hotel staff are so pleasant and helpful and can’t do enough for the guests . Especially Pety, Sissy. zach and Maria who are so friendly . There are less sunloungers than when we started staying in this hotel but we still Managed to find some as many guests still reserve them with towels by 7am.. Great choice again with food and drinks . Not so much entertainment as we would like to see maybe bingo ? We would recommend this hotel . Thanks again for another lovely stay . We also enjoyed our night in La Strada restaurant . We also met the manager Spilios who is such a nice man .
