Kalypso Cretan Village Resort and Spa

Kalypso village is amazing hotel with friendly staff and very unique location! All staff- from cleaning ladies to general manager are lovely and always willing to assist. I never been to the hotel that from first moment you feel like home and all staff like your friends! You can find other nice hotels on the coast but The hospitality that we experienced at Kalypso is something special! We are wishing you all successful season and can’t wait to visit you again! Thank you for a lovely holiday

The location of Kalypso and its Pirate Fjord are just splendid! Great food, clean rooms and good WiFi. We will come back for sure.

Sehr schönes Hotelgelände, man fühlt sich dort gleich wohl. Nur die Einrichtung der Zimmer ist etwas veraltet und teilweise defekt :(

Our stay at Kalypso in October 2018, was very good. We really used the hotel as a base for the local area, you need to be aware that it is not in walking distance from Plakias and about 40 minutes walk from the nearest beaches, so a hire car is essential. Plakias is 8 Euro each way in a taxi. We had an initial problem in that due to a recent storm, the hotel was overbooked. This resulted in us being allocated a poor standard room for a night. This was rectified the next day. The initial receptionist was helpful, but just showed us the room without telling us why it was so bed, resulting in our request to be upgraded to what we had booked. All other staff in the hotel were very good and friendly. Our new room was great, cleaned daily, with a sea view and a balcony. The bed was comfortable. We did not use the pools, but swam a few mornings in the lagoon area, which again was good. I cannot comment on the hotel entertainment. I would not use the hotel again, due to the need for taxis if you are to have a drink in one of the local village restaurants as 16 Euro is a big increase on a 30 to 50 Euro meal.

Beautiful grounds, pool and views. No wifi in rooms, only intermittent in common areas. Warned by staff that water is not drinkable and should use bottled. TV in room was 12 inches and seemed like salvaged from hospital rooms 15-20 years ago..To get to spa/gym, needed to climb up 200 steps up muntain. Staff were not friendly or very helpful. If driving, if you miss a small sign, you will get lost and the gps will not help since roads are un-named. VERY dark and winding roads to facility.

Schöner Aufenthalt, ruhiges Zimmer mit Meerblick, sehr gutes Essen (auch mit nationalen Gerichten), 3 Pools, davon ein sehr grosser Pool zum Schwimmen (Wasserqualität= leider viel Chlor) gutes Preis:Leistungsverhältnis! Mietwagen empfehlenswert.

Si vous aimez l’ambiance des hôtels-club bas de gamme : cet hôtel est pour vous. Dès le lever du jour, c’est la guerre des transats autour des piscines ( pas toujours très propres). Il faut en surcroît payer 10 € pour 2 transats (vieux et sales!!) Des personnes extérieures à l’hotel squattent les piscines et la crique. Nous avions le plaisir d’avoir une chambre en hauteur avec vue mer et terrasse plutôt sympa; dommage, elle empestait le tabac froid et les vitres avaient dû être nettoyées en juillet .... 2017. L’ensemble des équipements est plus que vieillot. Le personnel fait son job sans beaucoup d’implication, au restaurant, le rosé est imbuvable (mais non échangé !), ne demandez pas de glaçons: la machine est cassée. Si vous avez prévu votre petit déjeuner à la première heure, vous devrez attendre que la fine équipe du service veuille bien tout mettre en place a son bon gré...A la première heure, ne lorgnez pas trop du côté de la cuisine, l’état de propreté général vous couperait pour le coup l’appétit. C’est tellement nul qu’on pourrait presque en rire: à oublier très vite‼️

Chambre spatieuse et propre Réception peu réactive Piscine et restaurant fermant trop tôt Petit déjeuner varié et bon

Very dirty pool. The food was ok. Room not so dirty.

Really enjoyed our stay. The girls on reception desk were particularly helpful to me on several occasions. Hard workers. Nice breakfasts. 3 separate Swimming Pools so you could still swim even if some guests had turned the main pool into a noisy Water Polo pitch most of the day. Nearby Plakias not too touristy, but offers just enough to wander around a couple of nights. 10-12 Taverners, 10 -12 other shops. Nice beaches. We did the walk from hotel to Plakias beach. Not an hour, more like 90 minutes and quite testing. Need to be fit. We were wearing just sandals and shorts, but some people coming the opposite way were geared up with what looked like Mountaineering sticks and clothing. Didn't see any snakes, spiders or scorpions.
