I decided to build my review in the same style as many tourists who left their reviews on the pages of this site. I would like to draw your attention to the fact that I and my family vacationed at Creta Palace in different seasons, “high and low.”...More ▾ I decided to build my review in the same style as many tourists who left their reviews on the pages of this site.
I would like to draw your attention to the fact that I and my family vacationed at Creta Palace in different seasons, “high and low...”. This is April, this is July and August and September and October! Therefore, I can reliably tell the entire wide audience of both those who have visited the hotel and those planning to come to this luxurious and at the same time very homely, family hotel Creta, about all the nuances, beauties and little things of Creta Palace!
1. BEACH: Immaculate in every way! There is no desire to even compare it with other beaches! Some people like wild beaches, for some, rocky shores, for others, the entrance to the sea is preferable from stone slab... The blue flag of the European Union is not given out just like that, I assure all reasonable people! Moreover!!! I will note, because I have the right to this, having been to this beach 10 times already, that every year, a new season, a lot of new things always appear on this beach, great ideas, redevelopments, recreation areas near the beach-bar, services, sports areas, animation zone! The only thing that remains unchanged is concern for sea ​​turtles Oh! They receive a lot of attention, love and care! There is a volunteer group of young people who monitor the entire breeding process of carreta-carreta sea turtles on this beach!
FOOD: I can say that, having visited all the countries of the Mediterranean basin in different time summer season, food in the Grecotel network, regardless of the number of stars, is the best! From the point of view of organic products, from the point of view of the variety of dishes, from the point of view of restaurant staff, and this is extremely important! I think that many people do not know that in the Creta Palace Labyrinth restaurant you can ask the restaurant staff and they will make Fresh juice of your choice from any fruit and completely free of charge! And this is not a one-time request from guests, I personally observed this! As for the quality of the dishes, their variety. I have the opportunity to make a comparison over many years of rest in the department. There was one season, in 2010, and this was noted by the hotel managers themselves in conversations with me, when the cuisine of the main Labyrinth restaurant was not very successful, or, as we say, “not up to par.” But this was an isolated incident! This, as the restaurant workers themselves said, was a question from the chef. But this year, I was on vacation from September 20 to October 1, the cuisine, all the dishes were simply excellent!
As for children's dishes, I cannot say exactly all the nuances. But very often I noticed that children ate different foods and were satisfied, just like their parents! Although a separate segment of children's cuisine was present in the restaurant in a large assortment! By the way, this is what makes the entire Grecotel chain different from other hotels in Greece! Taking advantage of the fact that I am writing about the food and restaurants of the hotel, I would like to thank all the staff of the Labyrinth, and especially, I may incorrectly define the position, senior manager Stelios! Always attentive to everyone without exception, responsive, knows his job thoroughly!
ROOMS: I rested in different parts of the hotel, in the central building and in the bungalows and in the famous class. Despite the slight negative reviews about the rooms, I will say that the room is cleaned both once a day and twice a day, with a mandatory minibar and a bottle of wine and water! Water every day, a bottle of wine every two days! As for the accommodation in the rooms, this is simply beyond praise! It’s not entirely clear to me how, when reading reviews, I learn about the discomfort during accommodation or the desire of hotel workers to place people in the worst rooms.. Over the course of 12 years of holidays at Creta Palace, I have not encountered the cases described in the reviews! Each of my trips to the island. Crete in this hotel is always remembered very fondly! As for the so-called wi-fi, in 2002-2010. Internet was present in the reception area and the first floor. While vacationing this year, I used the Internet in the room I lived in, 705.
POOL: again I would like to remember the reviews of hotel guests that “in all the pools the water is cold and no one swam”... This is not true even in the period September-October! The water is the same as in the sea, there are a lot of swimmers, especially since the sea has been extremely turbulent since September 20, with waves! On September 20 there was heavy rain, many hotel managers joked with me that it was I who brought such weather on the first day of my vacation! Therefore, there were many vacationers near the pool and directly in the pool itself, including children!
FARM Agrecofarm: you are drawn to come here, even if you are far away hometown, in winter.. Why? Everything here is created for relaxation, complete and luxurious! I can't forget my first visit to the farm... Just like this year, everything comes back to life in my memory! A grape harvest festival, Kri-kri goats, a church, a rich dinner, unforgettable landscapes... Visiting this family birthplace of the President of Grecotel for the 10th time, I come across the idea that I myself can already conduct excursions to all corners of the farm.. Although every year is incredibly interesting! When I enter the farm, it’s as if I’m returning to my childhood.. God bless Nikos Daskolandonakis and his entire team of top managers and just all the hotel workers for many years to come, who every year make a holiday for all guests of Creta Palace!
Arriving back home after a vacation, a little time passes and all the days of vacation come back to your memory... And you already begin to plan a meeting with your friends on the island. Crete and in the hotel next year! Indeed, to paraphrase the words of Nikos Kazantzakis: “Crete is not an island, it is a state of mind,” we can say that the Creta Palace Hotel is not a hotel, it is a state of mind!
