Overall Ratings & Reviews Stella Island Luxury Resort & Spa - Adults Only

Stella Island is a beautiful and peaceful resort with a truly premium feel. The rooms were superb, and the design—with pools running throughout—adds to the relaxing atmosphere. The food was consistently excellent, with plenty of variety and top-quality dishes. While the location isn’t ideal for walking to nearby attractions, the resort has everything you need, and taxis to local towns are easy to arrange. Highly recommended for a luxurious, hassle-free getaway.

Amazing property! I plan on staying here again.

Beautiful new resort towards the NE side of Crete. Staff was uniformly kind and seemed vested in us having a great time. Spa was absolutely wonderful. A few nits to be aware of. Hotel is rather isolated and the nicer restaurants all close at 930pm and require reservations 24 hours in advance via their app with no same day flexibility. Also despite being next to the sea, there is no hotel beach club or chairs and a lot of the landscaping even blocks the sea views. Price was a little high considering no beach and need to take taxis to go anywhere off property.

Everything was amazing

Great hotel with lots of dining options and a great all inclusive package

Beautiful property with a lot of amenities, close to town and amazing beaches

Wonderful room, helpful and attentive staff and incredible food!

From the first minute, we walked into the front doors we were cared for like none other. The staff was super friendly and very hospitable. The dining options were very good. Lots of different options. We only booked a two nights stay. I wish it was a seven nights stay. I will definitely be returning in the future. The only knock I would give this place is we had ants in our room… 9.5/10 stay.

The staff was so accommodating. The room was beautiful and you cannot beat the view we had!!

1300$ for a 290 square foot room, smelly, worse than a 2 star hotel , no bathrobe, no luggage stand, grey ripped towels. We get the all inclusive but dont get fooled....is not we got charge for wine . The food is bad and the resort is in the middle of nowhere....very boring stay(one day) Maybe a 3 star hotel with no beach just a pool. Bigest booking mistake I ever did.

Amazing place, great staff, clean environment and stunning views

Everything about this place is 5 stars. The a la carte dining options are incredible with 5 restaurants to choose from, all offering very different cuisine. The cocktails are made fresh and are excellent quality. There is an outdoor gym for CrossFit style training and a well equipped indoor gym. The room was excellent - we had the premium swim up. Our deck was in the shade most of the day which may bother some people, but we were happy to use it as a break from the sun. And there are plenty of sun loungers available. The resort felt spacious and quiet despite being fully booked. Staff are very attentive and friendly. If we had to be constructive, one criticism would be the buffet - we enjoyed the breakfast. Lunch and dinner are ok, but the variety isn't huge and quality was hit or miss. However, there are several restaurant options for lunch as well where the food is guaranteed to be great. We will definitely be going back, it's an excellent resort for couples.

Great hotel with an amazing staff great service

We stayed at Stella Island for 6 days and in that time, we had an absolutely Stella-r time! I don’t even know where to start, the views are spectacular, the food is Michelin-star level, and the staff are professional and kind. We stayed in Premium Suite with a balcony. Somehow this resort is only a 3-star on Expedia, which makes no sense to us. If there were such a thing as a 6-star resort I would rank Stella Island as such. We’ve travelled far and wide and this is by far the nicest resort we have ever stayed at. We’d like to call out 2 staff members in particular for their service: George who worked at Makuti - probably the nicest person we’ve ever met. He was kind, courteous, and his level of service went above and beyond. He made our experience truly special both times we were there. Kleidi who was serving us at the pool - Kleidi took the time to get to know us, and we exchanged a few stories about where we are from, and our love of football. He was super kind and friendly, and it was a joy to have him take care of us. Overall, we can’t recommend Stella Island enough. We are already looking to plan our return all the way from Canada soon!

Amazing property. This is a clean and well maintained property. It is quiet and peaceful so relaxing is never an issue. Staff is friendly, knowledgeable and work hard. Food is excellent and drinks are delicious. Will definitely return in the future.

Beautiful surroundings

Amazing stay at Stella Island would definitely recommend to couples especially honeymooners :) It’s as beautiful as the photos on website and socials. Stunning and the staff are the biggest asset. Food is amazing at all restaurants including the buffets. If I’m being really picky I think the cocktails can be better but if you tell the bartender what you want and how you want it they accokidate.

Wow! I only stayed one night because I’d read bad reviews saying it was noisy and full of annoying influencers. I think you pay more and get more. I was in a bungalow and it was pure bliss. Marina, my concierge, really helped me to maximise my stay and was amazing. I loved not having to fight people for sun loungers at 7am with towels. I loved how private the bungalow was. The only downside for me was I think if I stayed longer I’d come back fat, the food was amazing and all inclusive just makes you want to try things and eat lots. I’m not really a drinker, maybe one, so this was a bit of a waste for me. Gym was pretty decent but closed at 7 which is really early. Overall it was brilliant, super expensive but worth it for something special. I’ll stay longer next time I go, I think 5 nights is ideal

We stayed for a week and had a fantastic time All inclusive was fab the dinning options were great Couldn’t fault anything about our stay the staff were great

Amazing food, Beautifully manicure Property!
