Top Ancient City of Aptera Hotel Reviews

JW Marriott Crete Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely beautiful property and view. The breakfast was delicious and had a huge selection. 5 star experience."

Olea Villas - Luxury villas by the sea

10/10 Excellent

"We visited this villa for a family celebration as 3 couples, it was everything described and more and was large enough to everyone to have their own personal space if needed! The attention to detail was exceptional with everything you needed to make a perfect holiday. It was a short drive (about 1.5k) to marathi for a few restaurants, this could be walked but the roads are not lit and very hilly. Vicky the cleaner was lovely and did an excellent job and we even had a beautiful warm home made sweet pie delivered for breakfast one morning. Would definitely recommend to anyone seeking that touch of luxury for a perfectly relaxing holiday"

Areti Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff were lovely and helpful. Nice location. Large rooms but could do with an upgrade especially the bathroom."

Kera Green Private Villa with heated salt water pool.

10/10 Excellent

"Kera Green Villa is simply fabulous! we stayed here for 11 nights in August. The villa is set in the hills surrounded by amazing views of the ocean, mountains and olive trees. The bedrooms are like you would get in a top hotel, all have ensuite and smart TVs with fab modern bathrooms and balcony area. The living area is very spacious and again fantastic views wherever you look, very comfy and lots of kitchen equipment. It was spotlessly clean and kept clean by two visits from Monica the cleaning lady who did a fantastic job. The pool is probably the best i have swam in, so clean and tranquil. We didn't hire a car and so walked into Kalyves town which was about a 12 minute walk and got a taxi back, the taxis are easy to order using WhatsApp and come straight away or you can pre book. Kalyves town has everything you need, supermarkets, shops, lovely restaurants right by the sea but not busy at all. We also went to Almyrida which we got taxis to as the hill is very steep to walk there but took less than 5mins in a taxi. This is slightly bigger with many more restaurant's, both fantastic places to eat at night. Vasiliki was a wonderful host, great communication and everything was perfect. Would highly recommend this villa - its simply stunning and the area is very beautiful. Came home extremely rested and will definitely re book in the future."

White View Villa by Alex – Your Dream Holiday in the Heart of Crete

10/10 Excellent

"We had a really brilliant time at this villa. The space is fantastic and it is definitely the best equipped house we have ever visited. The pool / outdoor area is beautiful and Alex could not do enough for us. There are a few very nice tavernas very close by and the Roman ruins at Aptera are also within (slightly further) walking distance. Thank you so much for a wonderful holiday!"

Villa Koules - Vacation villa with private pool in Crete, Greece

10/10 Excellent

"Villa Koules is beautiful and peaceful. High standard of decor inside and out. Only a 10 minute drive from the beach. Lovely views of the white mountains from the pool. Nice village a few minutes away with a mini market and a few tavernas. The pool is a good size and we had lots of fun there. The owner was very kind, friendly, and helpful. We felt very well looked after."

Villa Konstantina - Three Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 6

8/10 Good

"Séjour agréable dans un petit complexe de 3 villas. Jolie vue dans un environnement encore en construction. Restaurant et petite épicerie à proximité (1.5km), en revanche il manque quelques ustensiles pour faire la cuisine ( poêle, plats, cuillère en bois...) et pour la nettoyer (le lave vaisselle ne lave rien). La piscine est nettoyée tous les jours et le linge changé une fois par semaine. Pour garer la voiture, pas de parking à proprement dit mais un endroit à l'entrée de la villa."

Souda Bay View - Five Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 12

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful views!!! Clean. Good restaurants in the area. Close to Chania and Beaches."

Almyrida Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel in a great location . Breakfast was lovely and fresh every morning. The hotel staff work very hard to keep the hotel clean."
