This hotel is super well located, it has access to an amazing sandy beach, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. We’ll definitely come back!

10/10 Exceptional

We had a sub basement flat and it was great value. Spacious and near the pool. Could do with some sprucing up in terms of furniture etc but nothing to spoil our stay. The hotel restaurant is what makes it for us. Great food and staff. Best cocktails and the best spaghetti ever. Coffee is superb too. We asked the hotel to leave two pizzas in our room as we were arriving late and nothing is a problem for them. Location is absolutely wonderful on the beach.

Points positifs: excellente localisation, chambre avec vue et balcon sur la mer superbe, hotel en bord de plage, accueil a l hotel par Mrs Koukouraki tres agreable et accueil de Cristina tres agreable au restaurant Points negatifs: 1) l'autre personne assurant l accueil s est montree tres desagreable -> en tant que voyageur solo, elle ne souhaitait pas garder ma cle de chambre pour que je puisse profiter de la plage et de la mer, cela ne lui coute rien et cela constitue un simple service.. -> elle tenait a ce que ma chambre soit liberee le jour du depart a 11h au lieu de 12h comme stipule sur expedia..je n ai pas cede 2) en tant que silver, je n ai pas eu le cadeau de bienvenue mentionné lors de la reservation

Bedste beliggenhed

Skønt hotel med en vidunderlig beliggenhed. Lejlighederne er lidt kedelige, og sovesofaerne i stuen er meget hårde. Ydermere mangler der lidt knager, hylder og kunst. Men beliggenheden, med den gode strand og restaurant på hotellet trækker meget op. Vi havde 10 dage på hotellet og havde en balkon som vendte den „rigtige vej“ som er i skyggen når det er juli måned :)

Fantastisk beliggenhed, men manglende rengøring

Dejlig beliggenhed, sødt personale, men desværre utrolig dårlig rengøring og mindre god stand af værelses faciliteter.

Oneal, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

We did enjoy our stay at Golden Bay. The apt was nice. There were a couple issues that would have made the stay nicer...One of the doors to the patio had only one hinge, so it couldn't safely be used. It should have had a sign on it for safety. That door also didn't have blackout curtains and make it hard for the kids to sleep because of the lights on the property all night. Didn't tell me until the last night. I thought it was just the sun in the morning. It would have been really nice if there had been dish soap and dish towels for the kitchen area. We did use the kitchen. It worked fine. The pool area is nice, and the loungers have the best cushions, but so limited and not enough shade. At the beach you pay 10 Euro for 2 loungers and an “umbrella". We went out to try one morning, but all were already taken. We didn't try again. Food at the restaurant was good but took a while and sometime took a while to be recognized by staff to order if not sitting in the restaurant. They do work long hours and are pretty busy. Water is less expensive if you take away. We got lucky with parking. It wasn't too bad during the week, but weekends can be harder to get a spot. It is a public lot for the beach. Other restaurants and grocery in walking distance.

Evagelia and Olga were absolutely amazing, they were happy to answer any questions we had and assist with everything. They are the face of this accommodation and should be commended for the excellent work they do and go that extra mile with a smile on their face. The property is in an awesome location and if i was to return, i would be definitely going back, the view and location is to die for. Clean and comfortable accommodation, loved everything about our stay. We will miss the two lovely ladies, you made our stay that one level better, thank you
Alexios, 5-night trip

4/10 Fair

This hotel must have been good at some point, but it feels like it's running on fumes now. I heard a staff member say there are doubts as to whether they will be operating next year. The not so good: We arrived to trash in the walkway to our room, which wasn't cleaned until after stray cats had had their way with it overnight, and we had to report it to front desk. Information on cleaning schedule was shared incorrectly. We only found our later that towel service was every second day, so dirty towels left on the floor were picked up but not replaced on alternate days. The room floor was also covered in sand on our arrival. I understand it's a beach front property and some sand is bound to get into rooms, but I would have assumed it would get cleaned, at least when there is a turnaround in guests in each room. The positives: Location and the beach in front of the hotel are great. There's easy access to Chania, and also attraction further west. Hotel staff were generally helpful and polite. The restaurant at the hotel is quite good.

10/10 Exceptional

Tolle und große Wohnung mit schöner Aussicht. Die beiden Schlafcouches waren sehr breit und bequem. Die begehbare Regendusche sauber und modern. Die Lage ist fantastisch. Zwei kleine Mankos sind, dass die Liegen am Strand nicht inklusive sind (10€ zwei liegen und Schirm) und die Küche keine Minimalausstattung wie Salz,Pfeffer und Öl hat. Das sind aber wirklich Kleinigkeiten.

Familjärt o snyggt hotell med nästa tänkbara läge!

Fantastiskt läge vid stranden! Snyggt och familjärt hotell med grön och fin utemiljö. Trevlig pool och bra service! För en familj på 4 tyckte vi att lägenheten var i minsta laget och hade önskat bättre utrustat kök. Rummen var något mer slitna än vi förväntar oss men helhetsintrycket ändå positivt. Tex saknade duschen en vägg/draperi så allt blev blött när man duschade. På det hela taget ett mycket trevligt hotell för den som söker ett lite lugnare område med hög komfort och nära till lokalbussen till Chania.
