4 out of 5

Family hotel with good facilities.

Pros: Relaxed atmosphere and not crowded at the time we went (September).
Cons: Noise levels from hotel evening entertainment. Moved to quieter room but noise still intrusive affecting ability to sleep.
Location: Hotel located away for Malia town so 7 euro taxi to get to town for local bus service. Archaeology museum in Heraklion worth a visit.
Good facilities with both sandy beach and pools, good food and friendly, helpful staff.
