A/C was very noisy but rooms clean and nice. Big nice swimmingpool. Because we did not have all inclusive we were questioned at the pool area if we really were guests. Easy to take the bus to Chania or Platanias, station just outside the hotel.

A great hotel but beware of listing

The hotel is fantastic, but look at the hotel website for clarification on the room spec. Hotels.com stated the room came with private pool but it didn’t. The great service at the hotel ensured we had a great time. It’s a fantastic peaceful hotel but be mindful of the star rating as some facilities don’t meet the mark I.e spa, food variety

Great Holiday

Stayed in the hotel for 2 weeks with extended family. Food: tasty, always warm, a lot of variety (appreciated a lot of seafood choices) Room: pick a room with a sharing pool Staff: everyone really friendly and accommodating Main pool: nice with a poolbar in the middle and really good for small kids as on two parts depth gradually increases Beach: we did not visit often as it was windy and wavy, so you really appreciate all the pool options Animation: no animation (minidisco etc) for kids, 1 greek night and 2 one man shows in two weeks - as a family with small kids we would apeciate something more in the evening time, but the hotel is still relatively new and maybe still developing in this area Cleanliness: very appreciated the cleaning team work - towels changed every day Advice: rent a car and discover Chania area

Hotel rules and instructions weren't clear, no information where to get beach towels, no prices for inroom dining etc. also although we had all inclusive, we needed to pay extra for certain services etc. Drink service didn't work properly at lunch and dinner.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Lovely rooms, very clean, great food and lovely staff. On the downside the drinks were pretty average. Coffee not great, wine not great, soft drinks varied, spirits weak. Also found it very odd for a supposed 5 star to have to pay extra for things like pool towels, some “premium” sun beds and bottled water? Not expected. The dining areas could really do with better lighting and some added character - they feel a bit canteen-like. However the food was really very good. Fresh, varied and tasty with lots of options. Deserts were also excellent. And the staff are great all round. It’s a quiet hotel, peaceful, with little or no evening entertainment even in peak summer. But if that’s what you like this is hard to beat. We walked into the village one evening which was so nice with a few good local restaurants, and only took 10/15 mins to walk. The grounds, pool area and rooms are so well kept and can’t be faulted. We were in the swim up rooms which were very lovely with great views. Best of both worlds. Overall I would definitely recommend it, and would certainly go back.

Die Unterkunft ist vom Flughafen ca.40 Min entfernt d.h man Muss Kostenpflichtig die Anreise organisieren entweder mit dem Taxi, oder Mietwagen wenn man vom Flughafen anreist . Ein Tolles Hotel, was für Familien perfekt ist ,es gibt ein Wasserpark mit Rutschen,und auch für Kleinkinder Ideal. Das All-Inkl Ist sowie ganz in Ordnung. In der Anlage gibt es auch weitere Pools und wenige Meter entfernt ist der Meer! Abend werden auch, für die Kinder tolle Veranstaltungen gemacht. Man kann in der Hotelanlage Spaß haben.

I beste fall 4 stjerner, mye manglet her

Galini Palace Resort fortjener ikke 5 stjerner, i beste fall 4 stjerner. Nytt hotell, så rommene var ganske bra. Veldig betong aktig, og upersonlig atmosfære. Underholdning var omtrent helt fraværende, bortsett fra en person som dro på en høytaler, og sa noen ord i en mikrofon, for så å forsvinne, mens masete og dårlig musikk ble stående på alt for høyt. Rett og slett plagsomt. Hotellet bestemte seg også for å endre på åpningstidene i restaurantene, så de stengte en halv time tidligere enn annonsert. Ala carte restauranten var ikke åpen i det hele tatt. Mat og drikke var ikke elendig, men lite å glede seg over på denne fronten. Har vært på hoteller med 3 stjerner hvor maten har vært mye bedre. All tilgjengelig mat i snackbaren var kald, og lite appetittlig. Under oppholdet brøt det ut magevirus på hotellet, om det skyldes mat eller smitte vites ikke, men mange ble syke, og hotellet gjorde lite for å begrense spredning. La personlig merke til brukte glass som kom i kontakt med tappekraner. Servering ble ikke beskyttet, og smitte kunne vandre fritt. Svært kritikkverdig. Dette er et hotell hvor alt koster ekstra, og ikke en gang Strand håndkler får du låne uten å betale. I tillegg var det ikke lås på et eneste felles toalett. Vil ikke anbefale dette hotellet til noen, dersom dere ønsker en koselig og smaksrik opplevelse, det finnes mye bedre alternativer på Kreta, og til billigere pris.

Mitigé

Nous sommes restés neuf jours dans une chambre accès piscine, en all inclusive. Dans l ensemble, le complexe n est pas trop mal. Bonne literie. Le buffet est plutôt bon. Le ménage moyen. En option payante : serviette piscine, transat à la piscine collective... L unique possibilité de restauration à distance piétonne en dehors de l hôtel est une véritable arnaque...Mais vous trouverez tous commerces en quelques minutes de voiture dans le bourg de Kolympari. La vue est pas mal, mais y a mieux ailleurs, désolée. Un rapport qualité prix donc un peu élevé pour la prestation.
