Guest Reviews
- Linda (10/5): Happy near Chania, Crete. - Very clean, bed linen changed after 7 nights. Plenty of towels- pool towels provided. Good buffet breakfast. Great pool, padded pool loungers. Near airport so overhead planes and Greek military jets. English spoken. Small team of very friendly , helpful staff. There were a few families staying whilst we were there ( beginning September). Lovely plants and shady trees surrounding apartments( sadly the plants adjacent to our particular ground floor apartment had died - faulty watering system I think). Plenty of parking spaces. 2 minute walk to small popular sandy local beach. One taverna 2 minute walk, otherwise short drive to several other tavernas. A couple of shops and fuel station 5 minutes drive away. 50 minute drive to Chania, 1 hour 50 to Rhethymno. We would very happily stay here again.
- Laurent (4/5): - Les photos ne correspondent pas à la réalité. L’établissement n’est pas correctement entretenu (matériel ancien et détérioré, mobilier bas de gamme, draps de lits tachés, piscine non nettoyée, etc…). Les responsables ont déclaré qu’ils sont obligés de faire des photos montage pour attirer des clients. Le petit déjeuner est correct mais étrangement le chocolat chaud est en supplément alors que les ingrédients froids sont à disposition. C’est dommage car l’environnement est sympa.
- Hadley (10/5): Idyllic. - The location of this place is excellent. Just a short walk from a bay with a beach, beach bar and taverna, with other tavernas a very short drive away. Loads more bays to try within easy reach around Akrotiri. Service was excellent, breakfast fresh and delicious with good coffee and freshly squeezed orange juice. Rooms clean with big bathrooms and comfy beds. There is a nice deep pool, tennis and comfy sunbeds but don’t miss a swim or snorkel off the private dock.
- Stavros (10/5): Fantastic 3 star - The staff were absolutely fantastic towards us. We had a sick child with us all the way trough from the moment we arrived Tassos and Mimi were so welcomming and accomodating. It is such a beautiful quiet place perfect for familly holiday with swimming pool and beach close by. The food is a proper Greek portion, nicely cook and tasty. It actually reminds me of my grandparents village in cyprus.
- Teresa (10/5): - Love these apartments, used them before and always clean and friendly with really good breakfast options, definitely recommended.
- Marianne (10/5): Chania, eine Reise Wert ! - Einzigartiger Ort abseits vom grossen Tourismus ! Sehr schöne und gepflegte Anlage mit einer super Aussicht aufs Meer. Zimmer sehr geräumig mit Balkon, Sicht auf den Park mit Pool und das Meer! Sehr freundlicher Empfang und Service. Köstliches Frühstück und kleinere Menüs an der Poolbar.
- wilco (10/5): cute place but the best part is the staff! - cute place with a great view. But the best part is the staff. super helpful and friendly! we arrived late with hungry kids. they wiped up an amazing salad and pizza in now time.
- Sarah (10/5): - Absolutely loved our two nights here enroute from the Chania airport. The staff treated us like family and went above and beyond to give us a warm welcome. Our suite was comfortable and very very clean. The master bed and AC were wonderful. The grounds are stunning with views of the sea, a lovely pool, and restaurant and bar serving up delicious food. Loved the included breakfast as well. We travel often and would absolutely recommend staying here for value and experience!
- Rodney (10/5): - We had our flight moved up by one day (found out a day before flying) so scrambled to find a place for one night not far from Chania Airport. Turned out to be a wonderful day at Alianthos for my family and I. We were greeted with warmth by the staff. We enjoyed tasty food, floating in the pool, happy hour and swimming off the hotels entry to the sea. What a fantastic stay. I wish we could have stayed longer but our reservation elsewhere was made. Thank you Alianthos for making our first day in Crete a magical one.
- Kostas (10/5): - Very friendly staff and a pleasant facility
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Mimi and Katarina were the most amazing hosts! I lost my phone on the way home from the airport and had no idea where it could be since it was dead and Mimi tracked down the taxi cab it was in within a couple of hours. She went above and beyond. Their customer service is unmatched and the place is BEAUTIFUL. Way above our expectations.
- Adriana (10/5): Amazing and warm hearted - I have stayed in this location for already three times and every time it was excellent. The service is wonderful, very friendly and helping wherever they can. I rarely have met such warm hearted people and I would recommend everyone to stay in this apartment hotel. You need a car to get arounf but the hotel is located next to the sea and only 25 minutes by car away from the center of Chania. There is even a bus which takes you around the island so a car is not necessary for everything. The breakfast is delicious, offering savory and sweet foods, fresh fruits and veggies. And even when you are hungry during the day, the lovely personel will prepare an excellent dish at the beach bar. Thank you all from Alianthos Suites; my mother and I had an amazing vacation.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Fantastique ! - Charmant hôtel dans un superbe endroit, proche de la mer. Staff accueillant et chaleureux, on s'y sent très à l'aise.
- Carsten (10/5): Hyggelig rolig perle - En hyggelig perle i dejlig ro. Lige et super sted til ren afslapning
- Dave (10/5): - The hotel is very close to the beach and has brilliant views across the bay from the hotel,the hotel is very clean but the reason why we would go back to the Alainthos Suites is the staff that work their from the gardener/handyman who always greets you with a smile and a hello and the ladies that clean the rooms always smiling and then their is Mimi and Tasos who are always their for you with their smiles and if you need anything they will help you We truly enjoyed our stay here
- Eugene (10/5): Hidden Gem - Lovely spot and beautiful pool and gardens. Very close to the airport.
- Mélia (8/5): Trs bon sejour - Séjour très agréable, les employés étaient très gentils et souriants, la vue était très belle et le petit déjeuner avec du choix. La chambre était confortable et moderne, cependant l’isolation un peu limite, on entend beaucoup les voisins du dessus!
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Déçu... une odeur désagréable dans la chambre d égout. La climatisation en fonctionne pas. Les chambres sont rénovés à moindre coût. On cache juste l’ancien. Dommage car la vue est sympa et le personnel plutôt sympathique
- Dani (8/5): - Amazing location next to the sea and the city of chania. A very calm hotel suits with nice scenary and very nice beach next to it. Only if the bar could stay for a longer time or mayb to have music till midnight. Mimi and katrina are amazing and super hosts ask them anything u need and they will help u with a smile.
- Antonio (10/5): MAGNIFIQUE - Très agréable séjour dans cet appartement propre et bien équipé au milieu d'un magnifique jardin, très bien entretenu. Une très belle petite crique à 150 mètre environ. La piscine est superbe avec beaucoup de transats. Le petit déjeuner est varié salé, sucré et un vrai jus d'orange. Et l'accueil est parfait Mimi et Katerina sont au petit soin avec les vacanciers. A réserver sans hésitation si vous souhaitez être au calme.
- Istvan (10/5): Paradise location - Alianthos Suites offer self catering accomodation with a few additional features which combine into something unique. I would say it easily beats more prestige looking and expensive places for guest experience. The accomodation bit is based on apartments most of them facing the see and nature. The inside is usable and clean - to my complete surprise this included daily cleaning and bedlinen changes. The location (Chourafakia) is not densely populated so walking down to the beach - 5 minutes - you will not see masses of tourists. Moreover you will hardly see tourists at the local beach as 9 out 10 on the beach is greek. The water is crystal clear, warm and full of fish so you may want to consider bringing your snorkeling equipment. As a byword you do not even have to go to the beach as the pool is magnificent catering for children and adults as well. In addition to this you can walk down from the pool to the Alianthos' own rocky beach within 1 minute. The breakfast is a good variety based on local produce. The taste of tomatoes and melons just reminded me of flavours from my childhood. Greek hospitality comes into its own in this place and based on my experience visiting Italy, France, Spain, Portugal this is the winner of all our mediterranean holidays.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Très joli cadre(piscine + JARDIN).Prévoir la rénovation des appartements. Tonnelle de PARKING non adaptée (Pas assez large) attention !! Nous avons cabossé la voiture de location.
- nathalie (10/5): - Bravo à Mimi pour son accueil et sa disponibilité!!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Personnel attentif et très accueillant Situation et cadre très agréable Accès privatif à la mer et belle piscine Petit déjeuner varié, complet et genereux
- Ralph (8/5): - Schöne Strände in der Nähe Sehr sehr grün gelegen Erfrischender Pool Nettes Personal Gutes Frühstück mit Katzen und Brot Sehr ruhige
- Nadine (8/5): Appartement spacieux vue sur mer. - Je recommande cet établissement. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié. Ce n'est pas le grand luxe, mais le confort, le cadre, le jardin magnifique, la piscine super, le terrain de tennis surplombant la mer, la petite crique privée depuis laquelle nous pouvons assister à un beau coucher de soleil.... ont rendu notre séjour excellent ! Nous y retournerons !
- Daniele (6/5): - Monolocale ampio ma a piano terra, bagno discreto ma con un po' di cattivo odore di fogna, angolo cucina con stoviglie e frigo sufficiente. Letto buono. Piccolo tavolo rotondo esterno con 4 poltroncine. No vista mare. Buona la colazione.
- Miroslav (6/5): Overpriced. - Beautiful garden, close to nice beach - which is perfect for young children. Very quiet place. Close to airport. You should rent a car to stay there, nearest supermarket is 1,5km up to hill. Apartments very small, messy - should be refurbished. You can find messy stains everywhere - bed, sofa, pool chairs... Pool is also not clean enough. Buffet breakfast - limit is 2dcl fresh juice per person - really funny ;-) Wifi is usable around the pool or close to reception only. This hotel is overpriced.
- Stefan (8/5): - Far away to Chania center and to larger beaches an no restuarants nearby
- Anders Modvig (10/5): - Rigtig dejligt sted og i god stand. Rigtig lækkert poolområde og en fin strand i gå afstand. Lejligheden var rigtig fin og stor, med god terrasse til.
- paola (8/5): Beautiful and pleasant - The hotel was nice and clean. The service was warm and welcoming. The location is about 20 min from Chanias's Old Town, a bit challenging specially if driving at night. Overall very pleasant.
- tomlau (8/5): quiet and confortable hotel near the beach - We stayed a week and were very good. Our apartment was clean, spacious, quiet with views over the pool and the sea. The hotel staff is friendly and welcoming. Very convenient parking and the proximity to a beautiful and quiet beach.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice place near the sea. - There are air conditioning, pool, tennis court, nice bar e small restaurant. Near the sea, with parking.
- Tim (8/5): Very nice stay inthe Chania area of Crete - Very nice stay and good value for the price. We loved the location with the little beach down the road.
- alain (8/5): hotel sympatique - bon petit dejeuner ,bon rapport qualité prix ,agreable,mer et piscine
- alain (8/5): bel hotel - bon petit déjeuner ,endroit très agréable ,belle vue ,bon rapport qualité prix ,piscine et mer ,bon restaurant a coté avec musiciens
- pascal (10/5): Charme et sérénité - Un hôtel agréable, dans un environnement calme et un service sympathique.
- Dag Ingvard (8/5): Skiller seg fra massen! - Spennende og annerledes i rolige omgivelser. Fantastiske bademuligheter. Frodig beplantet område. Tydelige sikader.
- celine (6/5): Hôtel proche de la plage et calme - L hôtel est situé à côté d une plage. La piscine est spacieuse avec les transats tout autour. La barmaid est vraiment sympathique et accueillante. Le seul point négatif a été la chambre. Nous avons eu une chambre toute petite avec 2 petits lits alors que nous étions en couple. La réservation avait été faite 7 mois à l avance et il n a pas été possible de nous la changer, inacceptable.
- Michel (10/5): great place to. relax with family and friends - we just returned today form the hotel, important notes, the hotel owners has changed so all the older reviews are not relevant special thous about the chef who cooks meals per request in summary the place was just what we were looking for, quite clean and good location, the place is located 20 minutes from the airport on a small cliff over view on chania Bay, you can go down for snorkeling and fishing or to go down 100 meters to the nice beach not crowded and small snacks bar, there is a good size pool with beds around and bar for drinks and small snacks and basic meals. the rooms are clean and big with basic kitchen but missing basic stuff like salt sugar coffe or dishes soap (which the cleaner doesn't clean) also no shampoo and soap. no towels for the pool. to my opinion you must have a car as if you like descent meal you have to drive 5minutes to sunset restrunt or the tressea traven which both very recommended. I am sure you will enjoy the place.
- Birgitte (6/5): Fint område - Fint hotell og bra leilighet. Rot med bestillingen fra hotellets side slik at vi måtte bevise at oppholdet var forhåndsbetalt. Gratis WiFi men fungerte stort sett ikke. Fint basseng men møkkete. Leiligheten ok og renholdet veldig bra. Dyrt i forhold til standard.
- Alexander (10/5): Perfekt! - Helt utrolig bra og service i topp klasse. Egen kokk hadde vi aldri regnet med. Bestiller på frokosten hva du vil spise til middag på kvelden. Alt er hjemme laget mat i høy kvalitet. Georgos kan lage alt du vil ha å spise. Samme pris som utenfor på andre restauranter. Dette er ikke noe festplass, men stille å rolig sted for dem som ønsker å slappe av i ferien. Bassenget stenger klokken 21:00 på kvelden, men lysene er på hele natten ;)
- Gemma (10/5): - Alianthos Suites are a 15 minutes drive from the airport. Studio was basic but we had a lovely patio. There was a separate kitchen which had a fridge, and a hob and although we didn't use it at all it seemed pretty well equipped. Twin beds, storage and hangers were also provided. The pool area is lovely, with beautiful views to sea, well established and maintained gardens. The breakfast provided is very basic, but George is a fantastic, friendly host and was so welcoming every morning. The coffee wasn't very good, but we still had a cup every day, it was just a bit weak for our liking. George also cooked lunch for us one day. He is offering to cook anything anyone wants and we told him to cook something local! He prepared a very good traditional pork and celery dish with potatoes, which was very much home Greek cooking and we really enjoyed the experience. The location is lovely and quiet, and you can walk to the nearby beach which is very small, uncrowded and perfect for families with young children.Would recommend you have a car so you can explore the beautiful west side of Crete and Chania. Alianthos was lovely, we would definitely return.
- Christian (8/5): 2 nights in Crete - Alianthos was a decent place for a couple nights stay for our small family. Unfortunately, when we booked we were traveling with a friend and booked a single unit with 2 rooms so we could all be together. When we arrived we were in 2 separate units. I feel the rooms could've been cleaner. The air conditioner wasn't on when we arrived and there were some bugs inside the rooms. The internet did not work at all in the rooms. It worked only in the lobby where there was no air conditioning. The best thing of this place was the swimming area in the back. We practically had it to ourselves. There was even a lounge chair and beach umbrella to keep from direct sunlight. The waters were pretty rough for little ones though. We really enjoyed the little beach in the area. Good enough stay for 2 nights.
- Huynh (10/5): - We had a great stay at the Alianthos Suite hotel. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful. The place is perfect for travellers who want a quieter place to stay after a long sightseeings etc.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Disastrous situation turned into an enjoyable stay - My boyfriend and I arrived at this location in Chania last week and upon driving through the gate we immediately knew something was off. It appeared that the entire estate had been abandoned. There was trash everywhere and all the bushes were overgrown and clearly nothing had been maintained for some time. We arrived and tried to get someones attention and a man walks out in what appears to be his pajamas, but he quickly goes back inside and gets dressed appropriately. When he comes back out he explains to us how they have been experiencing many issues lately and he apologizes, but they are going to take us to another hotel on the other side of the island for the duration of our stay. This made us feel a little better, but we weren't sure what the hotel would look like. I will have to say it was a far drive to the other location, but the man took us the entire way and had called ahead to the hotel to ensure they had a nice room waiting for us. Even though the Alianthos Suites was in shambles we were very pleased with the warm welcome and terrific room overlooking the beach that the hotel had provided us for our stay. The hotel staff at Indigo Mare went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our time and were very apologetic for the mishap. I believe they may be owned by the same person so they are sister hotels. Wish we would have been notified ahead of time of the problem, but overall it turned out alright in the end and we had a pleasant stay at the Indigo Mare hotel.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Perfect Crete hideaway - The apartments are in a fantastic location if you are looking for a peaceful holiday away from the crowds. The gardens and the pool are lovely but best for us was the diving platform off the rocks at the bottom of the garden, directly into the sea. Peri & Louda could not have been more accomodating and solved a plumbing problem with minimum of fuss and maximum thought to our holiday. The nearby beach and bay is perfect - small and almost empty at the end of May. The only taverna on the bay is run by a great guy who cooks perfect grilled squid and cuttlefish. All in all, a deeply relaxing holiday in a peaceful location with other like minded, unobtrusive holidayers. Highly recommended
- Cassie (4/5): Late Plane Arrival - We arrived around 12am because we took a late plane. The staff knew we were going to arrive late and showed us to our room. It was far from the airport 20 minutes and 20 euros for a taxi. The outside of the is beautiful pretty location but not close to anything. There were also some bugs in our room - this may be normal for Greece, but Americans were not used to this. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and if we rented a car and were not planning on going anywhere we would maybe go back.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Alianthos in May - Very good location overlooking the Bay of Chania. An excellently presented suite - clean, and well equipped with good outdoor furniture on a large balcony. Attractive and comfortable swimming pool area and gardens. Most importantly excellent service from the staff of Peri and Luda who were welcoming, helpful and dedicated.
- Biggles (8/5): Pleasant quiet location excellent swimming pool - Enjoyed the stay. Slightly remote situation. Limited cooking facilities and somewhat dated room accommodation. Good view of air traffic to Chania airport.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Value for money, peaceful and great location. - Good value for money, excellent location, and very friendly staff.....we had a great time away from the tourist madness, yet close enough to Chania, Stavros etc. 2 minutes walk away, you have one of the nicest little coves with a nice small beach with trees to shade under and a really good restaurant to one side of the bay.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Perfect relaxing break - Wonderful staff. Willing to help. Beautiful setting and lovely location. Small bay and taverna 2 minutes walk away. Plenty of sun beds around the pool. Very good tennis court. Best to have a car if you want more taverna choice and don't want a fair walk to a supermarket.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Perfect for a quiet 'getaway' - Brilliant. We made good use of the courts, pool and pool bar. Xena and George couldn't have been more accommodating. Great little resort in a lovely location.
