Creta Beach has a unique peaceful ambience with greener outdoor spaces. Hotel facilities and services are good. The property stayed in is quite old, only one power socket. Hotel is backing into to sandy beach and had a large swimming pool. There are daily evening shows to entain guests. Breakfast is excellent, other times we eat out, so can not comment. Staff are friendly and helpful.

We had an amazing week at Creta beach hotel. We arrived in middle of night and were warm welcomed at the reception. We stayed in a bungalow/little villa which was 5 star experience. Really nice style and spacious. Bathroom amazing too. Location is perfect! It’s AT the beach with private beach for guests, nice swimming pool with bar. Very close to Heraklion to visit but also very central to make trips to other part of the island. Very close to airport. The beautiful mini golf at the hotel is also such a nice activity and looks so cool. We had an outstanding diner at the a la carte restaurant and also diner, lunch and breakfast at the normal/main restaurant was very good! Lot of choice and variation. Very good! Minor detail: the wine of the house was actually also very good..;-)..! But their wine menu is also TOP! Staff is super friendly, nice, helpful (the reception staff is SUPER! The girls and men are so kind and helpful! And so nice for kids too!). Giannis and his bartender team are great too! So friendly and know how to shake the best cocktails! Overall all staff was really good and friendly and make you feel at home. DEFINITELY recommend this hotel! If you like to wake up AT the beach/sea, ask for the rooms AT the beach. They are situated right at the beach. Really nice!

In die Jahre gekommenes Hotel, saubere Bungalows mit dringendem Renovierungsbedarf im Bad (Duschkopf ohne Halterung, Handtuchstange fällt herunter) Essensauswahl nicht besonders, in Warmhaltebehältern präsentiert. Wenig frische Zubereitung, wenig lokale Küche. Schade! Minibar im Zimmer (all inclusive!) enthält nur Wasser und zu Beginn zwei Limonaden und wird nicht nachgefüllt. Safe muss für €3 pro Tag zusätzlich bezahlt werden, man erhält einen Schlüssel, unpraktisch! Insgesamt stimmte für mich das Preis-Leistung-Verhältnis nicht und den "Umgangston", z.B. "bei Verlust des Badetuchs Gebühr von 15€" kenne ich so nicht. Die Lage mit schönem Sandstrand und Bushaltestelle vor der Tür war für mich das Schönste. Empfehlen möchte ich dieses Hotel nicht.

We really enjoyed out stay in this hotel! The bets thing about it is the people - we were made to feel welcome and everyone working here was atentive and warm and made us feel super welcome! (Thanks for all those extra treats - fruit, coffee, ouzo!). The food is lovely and fresh, the pool was incredible and the beach and sea beautiful. We were walking distance to different restaurants and shops, and it was easy to go to Knossos too. A fantastic stay! Thank you!

Beautiful design that was quaint, cozy, and welcoming. Onsite services were great, but we actually spent a lot of time traveling all over the island, and Civitel Creta Beach helped us with transportation throughout the entire journey. Everything was absolutely amazing! Whether you want to stay on resort and enjoy the amenities, or traverse the beautiful island that is Crete, Civitel Creta Beach is your spot!

Great hotel, but got quite noisy at night from a neighbouring development. I stayed only 1 night so not sure if this was a one-off event.

Civitel Creta Beach was an absolute wonder to stay in. The staff is what really made my experience stand out. I was in the EU for a couple weeks and I stayed here for only a few days and this place was by far the best place I visited. It was very clean and the food was amazing! The staff deserves all the credit for making my experience very special.

A very nice hotel. The food at breakfast and dinner was superb! Our room was very clean. Lots of sun loungers by the pool and on the beach. They gym equipment on the beach is in poor condition which is a shame, as is the mini golf course. Also, on our final day we wanted to have the early breakfast at 0630. Unfortunately, staff only opened the breakfast room at 0640 and therefore we only had 10 minutes to eat as we needed to leave for the airport. Overall, a very good hotel and staff were very friendly.

Honestly had the best time at this hotel. We loved the really varied buffet and also devoured the dessert buffet omg so good every night. The rooms were cute little mini-villas with a terrace that felt like you were in a pretty tropical garden. Lots of birds and butterflies on the grounds. We arrived late but there were still staff to greet us and there was even a goody bag with fruit and a sandwich. Super convenient to get to from the airport and then there was a bus stop right outside or you could easily walk westwards and get to the trails by the Almiros Gorge which had so much wildlife. You could step straight onto the beach with a dedicated lounger area and they provided towels to use on the beach. Our room had a fridge which was such a blessing to keep milk in as we are keen tea drinkers! All in all we had such a nice stay. I’d recommend the bus tour to chania and lake kournas which you can organise using one of the companies along the main road and they’ll pick you up from the hotel.
