Kernos Beach

Positive things: SEA: nice sandy beach with a very clean water. Sea getting deeper very slowly, so perfect for children. BUILDINGS: nice context well integrated and with a flourishing nature around. AREA OUTSIDE: nice for an evening walk. SWIMMING POOL: big and very nice! RESORT AREAS: many good areas near the pool, under the trees or near the restaurant to relax. Negative things: RESTAURANT: A problem is the quality of what is cooked; it looked like a food cooked in a school canteen, not the one it can be expected from a 4 star hotel. Food very repetitive and tailor made for German guests: beans, cobs, wurstel, fried onion rings, fried potatoes croquette, ... Especially in the evening hard to eat and obliged sometimes to eat child food like chicken nuggets and fish fingers, together with same food. They were nice at the beginning but not after a while. Same fruit ot mostly not local/not seasonal (pineapple, apples, pears, grapefruit). RESTAURANT SERVICE: When you order drinks before to sit for dinner you receive them after long time (After buffet picking and eating the meal!) Many times and not understable. The waiter when changing the tablecloth and preparing the table took the salt and pepper and tried to put in my hands while preparing hands while preparing the tablecloth...are you joking?!? Extra: I phoned at the reception and they told me that shower gel and shampoo are provided only at arrival. It's a 4 star resort and never heard this in all the hotels I stayed!

The hotel was good overall, the cleaning staff need to wipe the floor of rooms as it is dusty, they also need to add a box of tissues in each room.

From the moment we arrived, the staff welcomed us warmly, helped with every request, and were simply amazing. The air conditioning in our room didn’t work, and they immediately moved us to another room. Everything we asked for, we received. The hotel has a very relaxed atmosphere, and the kids felt free to use the facilities at any time — even at night. We were invited to meals and greeted warmly throughout the hotel. The food isn’t particularly rich, but it’s decent. We were on a family trip and spent most of the day outside, so it wasn’t a major issue. The location is excellent if you have teenagers, as they can walk in the evening to the nearby clubbing area. The only downside is that if your room is in the main building, there’s quite a bit of walking to get to the beach or the pool.

The hotel room looked nothing as advertised. Not clean and disorganized. House keeping and other workers barged into the room at all hours. Would not recommend

Spacious room bungalow, huge pool, clean beach, plenty authentic greek food, beautiful flowers and traditional grounds. A bit annoying but no kettle to make tea or coffee in room, also no mirror in bedroom, was a challenge to dry hair and get ready for the evening from the bathroom mirror, lack of plug sockets. Cleaners did a good job, although not at a consistent time of day, so appearing early evening at door when you want a shower was not ideal. In the main restaurant the fresh fruit deteriorated in the second week of our stay and the general consistency of food from the previous week went down hill. However there is plenty of places on site to get good food and drink at different points of the day, we particularly enjoyed having a local beer from the bar overlooking the beach at the end of the day. Malia town is a short walk away providing plenty of nightlight and authentic eatieries. The evening entertainment at the hotel throughout our stay was very basic and lacked greek culture and fun! Nearby hotels certainly had much more to offer. The room although was in a lovely quiet part of the hotel and ticked many boxes, the view of the sea was very limited, not really what we expected from advertised and the money paid. The staff do favour the requests of the German clients being the main clientele however it did not ruin our stay and we made the most of our well needed holiday.

Stayed for 5 days at this resort (room 313). Spacious and clean room bathroom - Comfortable and cozy. Beautiful and clean grounds. Beautiful and clean private beach. Had the half-board, food options can be improved.

Accommodation was great and the staff really looked after us

Nice and comfortable facilities, excellent beach, extremely friendly and professional personnel, outstanding food. Very good location as base for your daily excursions in central and eastern Crete. Excellent choice for your summer vacations.

Very clean and comfortable, good amenities, plenty of choice at breakfast/dinner, helpful and friendly staff. Would highly recommend!

Spacious grounds so it never felt crowded, wide beachfront adjoined to hotel so we could always get a spot on the beach, spacious room & bathroom, plenty of variety for breakfast & dinner buffet & food quality was also very good. We hired a car to look around but found it hard to leave the resort & beach as it was so nice & relaxing. Lovely pool & gardens to relax around if you didn't want the beach.

Great hotel for a relaxing holiday at the beach. Friendly staff, good food.

Sehr zu empfehlen

Preis-Leistung top! Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Anlage sehr schön begrünt und weitläufig, sodass es nicht zu voll wirkt. Gutes Frühstück inkl. frischer Crepes- & Omlette-Stationen & Toller Sandstrand mit klarem Meer - inkl. hoteleigenen Sonnenliegen (die zwar gerne unerlaubt mit Handtüchern reserviert wurden, aber es gab immernoch genügend Plätze zur Auswahl). Rundherum viele Möglichkeiten zu Shoppen, diverse Restaurants zu besuchen. Wir würden wieder kommen.

- Der Strand ist schön. - Das reservieren der Liegen am Strand ist furchtbar. Man hätte doch pro Zimmer zwei Liegstühle samt Sonnenschirm vergeben können. Dann wäre dies kein Problem.

Sehr netter Service beim Buffet.

Un hôtel. Magnifique avec un beau et très grand parc magnifique. Une belle plage privée . Un personnel accueillant et sympathique.

Hotel calme avec acces plage de sable, nombreux transats, chambre propre avec literie correcte, dejeuner correct, environnement magnifique, grande piscine agreable, 2 petits cafes agreables et un 3eme accessible aux personnes externes. Pas d ascenceur ! Grand parking Gran

Großartiger, feiner Sandstrand mit tollen Wellen und Lifeguard. Ausreichend Liegen, saubere und sehr große Pools. Essen ist ausreichend und vielseitig. Gute Qualität. Preise für Getränke schon sehr hoch (0,2l Prosecco für 15€). Personal hilfsbereit aber nicht sehr freundlich (Ende der Saison?) Warmwasser im Zimmer nicht immer vorhanden. Auch ein Wasserausfall war dabei (Toilette….). WLAN nicht stabil aber überall vorhanden.
