Overall Ratings & Reviews Almyrida Resort

Rooftop bar/pool area used for breakfast is a real delight with views of the sea and mountains. The food was exceptional and the dinner buffet very good value head and shoulders above most we have experienced in terms of quality and choice. Very unusual for holiday hotels is the quality of the bedrooms and especially the bed. Excellent in all respects apart from the MUZAK which is played morning noon and night and spoils the wonderful rooftop breakfast experience totally.

Perfect! The Hotel is well maintained, spotlessly clean with warm friendly service. All rooms overlook the beach and Almyrida bay. Bed and Breakfast, with breakfast served at Almyrida Beach hotel (200m walk). Great choice of food and beverage of a high quality and friendly service (staff brilliant with our kids). You also have access to all facilities at Almyrida studios, beach and residences during stay including pools and bars. Location is footsteps from the beach with crystal clear water and Sandy beach with lots of sun loungers and umbrellas (€15 a day for two). Temperature of water is warm so a good substitute for the pool (also good for young kids as not deep). Multiple places to eat and drink throughout day and night (lots of great restaurants for night and beach bars/cafes during day), with all facilities decorated to high standard and clean. Also a few supermarkets and shops to cater for all your needs. We rented a car (Centauro - was really good, organised, efficient and friendly service with free shuttle to and from airport). We went to a water park in limnoupolis which was very good (30 mins), explored Chania Town with its Venetian harbour, which was spectacular (25 Mins) and visited Rethymno (45 mins) which was again very nice with Venetian harbour. The rest of the time we relaxed on beach/by the pool. A great family holiday, we will be back

Very nice staff. Solo traveller, I got the usual worst room until I brought up the fact that just because I'm alone, doesn't mean I'm lonely! And they gave me the room I requested.

Very helpful staff. Very clean and well-equipped hotel. Rooftop bar is excellent, and the breakfast has plenty of choice and tea coffee and juice, however the evening meal is luck warm at best and unbelievably they don’t serve water to drink with the meal this should be a basic requirement for the hotel when guests are half board. Pools are excellent unfortunately people get up early to place towels on the sunbed then don’t use them until lunch time this should be stopped, the bathroom is excellent, Overall, I would very much recommend.

We were in Studios which were comfortable and clean but we spent most of our time at the Beach and Residence where our family were. Very well appointed and great pool. Really enjoyed the breakfast.

The location of the hotel is great, literly on the beach (it's the Almeria studios section) but the room itself is quite old and needs a refresh.

We have just got back from a lovely 10 day stay at Almyrida Resort. For anyone that doesn’t understand the difference between the accommodations (as I didn’t when I booked it!) Almyrida resort is a new style, modern hotel with an amazing infinity pool on the roof and restaurant called Thea, which is opposite the Almyrida Beach Hotel - a more traditional style hotel with a swimming pool and the Windmill. Almyrida Studios is also About 250m along the road aswell, along the coast. I think they are all owned by the same company. We stayed in the Almyrida resort And it was excellent. The rooms were equipped and quiet, and all of the staff were very very welcoming and accommodating. We had two toddlers with us and they were all very friendly and helpful. A special shout out Xanthi the receptionist as she was very nice to us, and also the housekeeping staff as they did a fantastic job every day. Both me and my sister also had massages in the spa with Panos. He was brilliant and very attentive. We were also very impressed by the staff who were at the breakfast buffet and manning the bars, they even made special vegan pancakes for my sister every day!

3 summers in a row i stay in this hotel. Very nice area, great for a few relaxing days. Dinner and breakfast a bit basic but tasty nonetheless. For a small tourist place, it has good places to eat and drink anyway at descent prices. Beach near the hotel is very good, but you can have great fun in their pool also. Rooms are good, had problems with tv receiption but i guess this could be fixed, i didnt bother asking anyone. Rooftop bar and coctails were also fun. Staff is pleasant and helpfull.

Great roof terrace with infinity pool. Very average food quality for breakfast buffet..... walk out of the hotel and choose anywhere on the seafront!! Would I stay again, no. It was the noisiest hotel I have stayed in...ever

Fruit juice was concentrate rather than pure Beef Lamb and Chicken cuts in veg buffet poor

Great place to stay

The service at the Almyrida Resort is excellent. Nothing is too much trouble. Ideal place for a relaxing break.

The area is outstanding, loads to do and lovely beaches....the staff were all very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend.

Staff were very helpful and friendly. Enjoyed the rooftop bar. Very laid back

Check in was great very polite and friendly staff, we were traveling as 2 couples and they placed us in adjoining rooms very convenient. The hotel rooms were spacious and very comfortable beds. My only criticism would be that the showers had fabric curtains. The breakfast was a very plentiful buffet which was constantly replenished. The pools were great. We stayed in the more modern section of the hotel. Parking when we first arrived was a little chaotic but you were competing with the general beach going public later there was no difficulty in obtaining spots. Almyrida beach was a lovely spot with close proximity to the beach and the eating options great. The beach was also the fine sand rather than the more rocky options in some parts of Crete. Lovely sheltered beach safe for children.

We had a fabulous short break early season in May. Stayed in Almyrida Studios which is directly on the beach and at the end of the Almyrida Bay. It has great sea views looking across to Chania. It is ideally located for beach, bars and restaurants. Room was excellent but the bathroom needs modernising. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Good selection of breakfast options in Almyrida Studios or at the sister hotel Almyrida Beach which is only a 5min walk. We ate out every night at the higher rated restaurants in the resort all of which were excellent. Highly recommend a day trip to Gramvoussa and Balos Lagoon. We are planning a return trip for the same time next year.

We stayed at the Al Myridia Studios (one of the three hotel buildings). A pleasant hotel in scenic surroundings. The hotel staff were lovely, the rooms were clean and there were good facilities (multiple outdoor swimming pools ) and the hotel was on the beach. There were a couple of issues: firstly the room walls were very thin which meant that we could hear our neighbours flushing, moving chairs etc thus making it hard to have a good nights sleep. Secondly the breakfast was ordinary. Overall if we were staying there again I would advise to get earphones and to get breakfast elsewhere!

Brilliant hotel and excellent staff. Would have liked the Amyrida Residence Hotel to have been adults only rooms. It would have been quieter in our rooms. 2nd week spoilt due to a crying baby next door and children running around. Otherwise perfect.

The hotel was perfect for us. It's a great place for children. The pool is perfect for swimmers and non swimmers. The beach is very close by and there are endless options for eating and drinking. The hotel food is good and available at the poolside bar all day. The local restaurants on the beach are lovely. grest place for a family holiday.

I would highly recommend this hotel. Not only is it a stone throw away from the beach but the pool was perfect for my 2 year old to play. The hotel staff were great and made a fuss over him and us each day.
