We have just returned from a break at the Creta Royal and we had a wonderful time. We booked through Jet 2 holidays. We were the only English couple in the hotel so please bare in mind when booking this hotel. The hotel is spotless and right on the sea front. Staff are excellent, very smart and well mannered.

Having never written a report before, I had to start as I thought Creta Royal was 5*. Great people great service, great food. Make sure you go all inclusive as there is not a lot of places around to eat. Hire a car before you arrive don't get transfers its cheaper & you can get around easier. Just have to... More

This hotel, has never been, nor never will be a 5 star. We booked a double with Garden View, and put in a twin, when we went back to reception we were told that Greek double beds are not big enough for 2 adults! When we laughed and said we wanted what we had booked we were told that the... More

The beach is permanently red flagged due to rip currents and rocks in the water. The pool is so chemically enhanced that you are blinded by the water. Rooms are small. 11km away from the town so taxis cost 18 euros each way. Nearby restaurants are limited, small and quite good and very well priced but don't expect anything 5... More

This was our second visit to the Creta Royal. This is a lovely hotel for couples. What makes this such a fantastic place to stay is the staff, who are always friendly and helpful. The hotel food is good. The Tuesday outside BBQ is a labour of love but well worth it. We enjoyed the Gala Dinner on Saturday evening... More

We wanted to choose a quiet place where we could be eat and drink well in a relaxing environment. Creta Royal was able to provide this. Initially we were slightly disappointed on arrival due to a few things such as the beach which was rocky in most parts and the buffet food which was uninspiring. However, we tended to stay... More
