Cretan Dream Resort & Spa

OmG.. we were speechless on arrival. We arrived late(11pm) and we were greeted by very friendly staff. Checked in smoothly and have been offered a complimentary dinner which was amazing. Then we got taken to our seaview suite on a buggy. The luxury suite was exceptional...more than I expected. The view of the sea was astonishing. The infinity pool was excellent.. On my birthday, we decided to eat in the hotel as they were hosting a Tomahawk night with live band. The food was excellent. The hotel staff surprised me with amazing cake, serenaded by the live band and what made it soooo special....fireworks display. I was so overwhelmed with all these. Great selection of breakfast. The staff are very friendly and accomodating and attentive. We booked 2 excursions from the hotel (Samaria Gorge and Knossos Palace). Early start to both of them and what the hotel did was they even organised a packed breakfast for us to take away to the trips. We didnt expect this. Now the luxury suite with a sea view.. it was luxurious, clean, spacious, beds are extra comfy. I cannot fault it. The location is great. Bus stop just in front of the hotel. 10-15 min bus/ taxi ride to Chania Old Town. There is a beautiful beach across the road if you are fed up with the amazing infinity pool. OmG.. i cannot praise this hotel/resort too much. Its a dream to stay there. Cretan Dream Royal Resort and Spa. you lived up with your standard. I am so grateful for making my birthday so special. First time in Crete and OmG you didn't disappoint. Efharisto!

Beautiful, clean hotel with friendly, helpful staff. The pool area was really lovely with plenty of comfortable sunbeds available. The breakfast was very nice with a good choice each morning which could be enjoyed either indoors or outdoors with a lovely view of the pool and sea across the road. We were B&B only but we did eat in the hotel one of the evenings and the food was delicious, probably one of our favourite meals of the holiday. We also ate lunch by the pool and that was equally nice. The cocktails were very good too! The room we had was perfect for a couple but a little tight for us (couple and 17 year old). Our 17 year old was sleeping on a sofa bed that was ok but more suited to a smaller child. The room itself was very clean with everything we needed including a little kitchenette area. It was cleaned daily and fresh towels every day. We had a late flight the day we checked out but the hotel was very accommodating with a luggage room to store our bags and fresh towels provided for us to shower in the courtesy room. There is a mini market on site that has everything you might need and very competitively priced too. There isn’t a lot to see or do in the immediate vicinity of the hotel however there is a bus stop right outside the front of the hotel that takes you to Chania old town where there are an abundance of shops and restaurants. The bus can be extremely busy, especially early evening and they pack it as much as they can so be aware of this as it made for a couple of unpleasant journeys. We found the slightly later bus a better option. The journey costs just €2 per person. We would highly recommend this hotel and hope to return again one day.

Very quiet, comfortable and spacious sea view suite on the 3rd floor with excellent sea view terrace balcony. Excellent breakfast catering for all European tastes. Bus stop outside Hotel from Stalos to Chania (2Euros), with a supermarket close by. Staff were very helpful and courteous. Airport shuttle bus available to Chania Bus station (3Euros) as well as Herkalion and Rethymno (e-ktel.com). Recommend Kri Kri Taverna in Stalos and Steki restaurant in Chania old town. Beach opposite the hotel. Our second visit to Cretan Dream Resort and would certainly recommend this hotel for future vacation.

Excellent breakfast and easy location to quickly get under way to various touristic hotspots (Balos, Chania, etc.). Als main reason why we chose the hotel. Didn’t actually spent too much time in the hotel itself so cannot comment on the facilities. To me it seems the pool area is nice with good views.

Various spacious room with excellent view. Excellent facilities no need to leave the resort other than to explore. Small shop within the resort for all essentials and not overpriced like you would expect in a resort. Great daily breakfast, themed nights with entertainment, nothing another question. Extremely family friendly. The service was I’m above and beyond. I’m here come here, Jonah Noah go mommy go to mummy
