Excellent service and facilities. We were made feel very welcome by outstanding staff. Special thanks to Liana💜. The breakfast was superb. The pool and private beach gave a very relaxing vibe. We were lucky to get an upgrade of our room without asking for it! I would like to return any time.

As a single mother on vacation with her kids, I didnt have to worry about anything at this hotel. The staff are amazing, caring and creative. They were even able to organize babysitting hours, so I could go for a swim by myself. The rooms are brilliant, waking up to the view of the sea is indescribable. The pool was very enjoyable and also the breakfast was very generous. Also the Location is perfect, its only a little walk to the city center. Looking forward to returning to Hyperion.

The hotel is very clean and comfortable, it is also quiet even though it is in the city center. The staff are friendly and professional, nothing was too much trouble for them. The breakfast has a variety of choices to suit everyone, there is also a bar for having that drink at the end of the evening which my husband and I did! I can highly recommend this hotel. It was our first stay here and we have already booked for next month!

Very good breakfast, the hot tub on the balcony was perfect, a spacious room and bathroom, large smart TV for evening relaxing. Super friendly staff, always happy to help. Rooms are modern and with many functions, it had the best A/C of all of our stays in Greece (wind was away from us and it cooled the place down quickly), fan on the ceiling, relaxing chairs outside, mini fridge, everything a person needs.

Beautiful hotel. The pool was quite big! And the pool área is really nice to chill in. Our room was clean, well equiped and beautiful. Staff went above and beyond to help us with our every need. You will have a superb view while eating breakfast which is homemade. Parking in the área can be difficult but old town is just 10 minutes down the street and when you want to go back you can catch a taxi for 5 euro which we did every night. Stay here as many nights as you can!!!

    It was a wonderful stay in Iolida beach, it was so comfortable to be there. There are no luxury design or a lot of events, but it was so cozy, clean and the food was amazing! It was the most delicious all inclusive in my whole live. Stuff was super friendly, we felt like we were at home there. The beach was clean, sea was amazing and we could find sun beds at every time of the day. Our room was a bit far from the beach in second part of the hotel, but we had a wonderful sea view and it was super quiet there

    We really liked that the hotel was large enough but still compact — everything was within walking distance without being tiring. Unexpectedly, there was also a lunch buffet and snacks included for kids, which made things so much easier for us. The room was very spacious and the bed was incredibly comfortable. We also really enjoyed the beach and the beach bar; the area was wide and never felt crowded.

    My favourite place in Crete, it can be whatever you want it...

    My favourite place in Crete, it can be whatever you want it to be: quiet and slow, fast and adventurous, relaxing but all the time excellent food. Pick your places by checking reviews and you'll not be disappointed. My favourite restaurants in the city are Tamam, Ginger Concept, Salis, though the list can go on. Places to go out for drinks: The Botanist, Sinagogi or any of the places around EMPRIME on Potie street. Outside the city centre don't miss Periplous, loved the food quality and view and somehow I always end up at Almyriki in Stavros, the view and food are to die for, the beach is just in front. I can go on with so many other places, but it's best to discover and make your own favourites. Getting around the city is easy by walking, however you need a car or scooter to go to beaches outside the city and to visit other small villages.

    Heraklion has a lot of car and bike traffic.

    Heraklion has a lot of car and bike traffic. It is like peak hour in Sydney constantly. Parking is horrendous. I would recommend staying out of Heraklion. Drive to Knossos Palace, but go early. The other attraction for us was the Archaeological Museum. Get a uber or taxi to that. The foreshore looks like they gave up on it years ago. After Chania, Heraklion was a disappointment.

    The Old Town is full of history and narrow streets that need to be explored. There are so many excellent eating places to choose from with cocktail bars and ice cream shops you could eat somewhere different every night for weeks. Favourites include Cafe Galero and Taverna MInares. The Venetian Harbour is lovely walk with restaurants all round The front by the Old Town has plenty of bars which in the evening are full of young people enjoying themselves and although there is music its not too loud as you go past. All along the beach are cafes and bars which offer a good selection for all day eating. Having stayed there a week I now prefer it to Chania, much more going on in an easier access area and less crowded. (unless cruise ship in which is much less often- long may it stay that way)

    I’ve visited many times and never tire of the setting, food options and hospitality of locals. The harbour and lake are great for sitting and watching plus artisan shops offer unique items. It’s real Greece

    Kissamos offered us a wonderful mix of relaxation and local charm. The nightlife was a pleasant surprise, with cozy bars and lively tavernas where we enjoyed delicious food and drinks. Evening walks through the town square and the nearby streets filled with local shops and traditional products were some of the highlights of our stay. It's a great place for couples looking for a laid-back yet authentic Cretan experience.

    Difficult to judge because we came early in the season when there was a cold wind blowing and not all the places were open. However, there didn't seem to be many places to eat [not a problem for us as there was one excellent place, though would be a problem peak season] . There were a number of apparently abandoned and ill-maintained buildings, which made the place appear less attractive.

    Malia is a great base for exploring eastern Crete,as it is well served by public transport,car hire is easy and reasonable,but if you just want to eat,drink ,sunbathe and play in a pool,on a beach or in a club or bar it is great too.

    Palaiochora is a little piece of Paradise. Fantastic beaches , food and scenery. We hired a car and drove around the area, a little scary as the roads in the mountains are rather challenging. We hope to return to this very romantic location some day .

    lovely holiday spot, plenty of shops and restaurants, everyone extremely friendly and helpful. About an hour from airport, went to spinalonga and did a few walks, also did the 4 hour train ride which was lovely to see mountains, bit of history etc, wasnt too hot. Both of the bays were good and safe for swimming - one of them a bit pebbly getting in, the other was fine. Supermarkets well stocked. Elounda is flat so easy for walking although pavements a little bumpy. All very accessible and walkable
