CRETAN DREAM RESORT & SPA

Best hotel I’ve stayed at, from the beautiful scenery, gorgeous room and the staff are just amazing! I stayed here 11 nights for my wedding, and we had 54 guests also stay with us at the hotel. The staff could not do enough for me and my now husband, and our little boy. We stayed in the honeymoon suite which was just stunning. They accommodated us all for a meal the night before the wedding and even put fireworks and a DJ on for us!! Any request was always a yes, without hesitation. I wish I could give this more than 5 stars! Hotel and rooms were lovely and clean and a shop in the hotel which has everything you need and can use it 24 hours a day. Towel hire was €10 refundable deposit and well worth it, could swap for a clean one anytime. The morning of my wedding the staff brought us fruit platters and prosecco and it just made it even more special. Thankyou Creten dream, we cannot wait to return one day :)

Amazing hotel made so by the people who work here. The hotel was stunning and maid service every day. The hotel staff from reception to restaurant and pool Bar staff are so friendly they cannot do enough for you and want your holiday experience to be special. We had a sea view room which was stunning the sunsets are unreal. We ate 3 times at the hotel and the food was exceptional. Pool bar snacks are also good. Breakfast was lovely there is everything you could want on offer and a lovely outdoor seating area to enjoy breakfast. Theme nights are great especially the Greek music and dancers bbq night. The staff make this hotel it was our first visit and we will definitely be returning!.

Spent 11 days at this resort with the family. Can’t praise the hotel and its staff enough, by far the best accommodation we had in Greece. The place is spotless, cleaners came in every day, the staff are all very welcoming and can’t do enough for you. Breakfast is excellent, very good selection and staff always on hand to replenish everything. Restaurant food also excellent and again, a good selection to suit every taste. All in all a great, relaxing holiday and would highly recommend it. Thank you Cretan dream resort, you are all amazing.

Stayed in a suite which had separate bedroom, living room and dining area with kitchen sink and hob decent size fridge, kettle and coffee maker. The suite although immaculate was dated and dull. The bathroom was awful, it was tiny with small doorless corner shower and the bathroom door hit the toilet as you walked in so you couldn’t open fully and when standing at the vanity area the door was virtually at your back. On a plus side the cleaning was excellent and bed linen changed everyday. We had large balcony two sets of French doors and a nice table and chair set which looked new. The public areas of the hotel are lovely there’s a great indoor shop which sells everything and is reasonably priced. There is an indoor first floor lounge and bar tastefully done . The breakfast restaurant is lovely and large and breakfast was good. Nice infinity pool and pool bar (devine food) and seating area which is really lovely and all the tables looked new. A massive let down are the sun loungers they are dilapidated and some are broken and rickety. The rooms need an overhaul and please replace your sun loungers then you’d be more like a 5 star! Staff we encountered were pleasant and helpful especially Petros and overall we did enjoy our stay. Stalos is a quiet area with a few restaurants and beach bars, Teachers is a good pub. Agia Marina( it doesn’t actually have a marina) is 5 mins on the bus loads bars restaurants shops etc and it runs into Platanias which has the same. Chania is beautiful around 20 mins on the bus outside of hotel.

We stayed at the Cretan Dream as my daughter was getting married at a nearby venue and can honestly not rate the place highly enough. The hotel itself was clean and the choice and quality of food on offer was excellent, but it’s the people that make a place and every single member of staff was amazing. They couldn’t have done enough for us. If I could give more than 5 stars I would

This is our last day at this fantastic hotel and our second time here. If you are considering visiting Crete , do not hesitate to book the Cretan Dream Royale. Excellent location about 20 mins by taxi to Chania harbour ( 16 euros) which is beautiful and has the most stunning sunsets. The hotel has gorgeous grounds and rooms but it is the staff who make it stand out. Special thanks goes to Petros and Elena for their generous hospitality and service. The hotel is wonderful for families and couples alike, has a lovely infinity pool, excellent food and the atmosphere is relaxing and welcoming. Just book!!

Just home from this hotel with a very mixed opinion. As others have mentioned it’s not 5 star resort however the location is beautiful. I’ll start with the negatives- rooms need reconfigured and updated. They are generally quite basic and could do with a revamp. The kitchen area is pointless and takes up so much space. You’d need to buy kitchen utensils etc to actually use it as there’s only plates and glasses so a little confused why there was 2 hot rings? A fridge and a table top coffee machine is housed in a huge cupboard with a table in front of it making it difficult to manoeuvre around it. The food wasn’t great- arrived on night one from our flight and ordered our dinner. Both were cold and we had to ask to be reheated. The waitress also served us while talking non stop on her earpiece which was a bit odd and not very professional. The breakfast is buffet style and everything that’s meant to be hot isn’t! Even a toastie ordered at the bar had to be sent back. As a result we ate outwith the hotel which wasn’t ideal. I’m sure it could be remedied easily enough. The positives- the staff are amazing and so friendly and can’t do enough for you. In relation to the cold breakfasts my partner was brought fresh eggs every morning from the lovely Tula which we didn’t ask for- so thoughtful. The hotel is spotless! The location is great with the bus stop to Chania right outside. The views are incredible from the pool area. Overall we had a lovely stay but sadly don’t think we’ll be back anytime soon.

Wow. Its in the name! Cretan Dream resort is truely a dream. Our experience here was nothing short if amazing. The staff, the food, the room, the views, the location, the service, the atmosphere, it was everything and more we could of asked for. Thanks so much to the whole crew for all their hard work and willingness to make sure our experience was always top teir and that it was! All of our group will never forget our stay and we appreciate it so much!

We had our honeymoon at Cretan Dream Resort & Spa! After flying from Australia to get married in the UK, we spent 5 nights with 20 of our family and friends of all ages. I’ve worked with many hotels and stayed in some of the best in the world and can honestly say it was one of the best experiences I’ve had. Pete and his team went above and beyond to make sure we had a memorable stay and we felt so comfortable and happy - we all wish we had more time! Thanks again to all the members of staff, for making our honeymoon amazing!

The Hotel is not as it says on the review. The receptionist is not friendly. Even the 2 workers at the breakfast buffet was not pleasant. We felt like an outcast, they were just passing by and not giving us the same treatment with the other guests. I will never return to this Hotel and would never recommend to anyone. We even booked the oceanview and it was not cheap but we felt the value is not worth it.
