It is a good property and nice to be off the main drag. The rooms and furnishings are very nice, as is the breakfast and pool areas. The staff are friendly and generally very responsive. However there are some issues, mostly linked to the vistas of the rooms and the fitness centre having no cardio machines. The property is over 100m from the beach and the sea views are over a car park and or scrub land.
Amazing stay - fantastic facilities, delicious food and the staff were INCREDIBLE. Shout out Giorgios, Chryssa, Maria K, and the rest of the bar and restaurant team. We loved our time here.
A truly wonderful hotel that exceeded our expectations in every way. The service was excellent, with an extremely attentive, friendly, and courteous team who always went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable.
The hotel is in excellent condition, and the rooms are modern, comfortable, and very well maintained. The housekeeping service was also outstanding, ensuring that everything was always clean and perfectly taken care of.
The food was another highlight. All meals are served à la carte and were consistently delicious, with excellent quality and taste.
Overall, we highly recommend this hotel. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would be very happy to come back again!
Service war nicht sehr aufmerksam. Man musste stets aktiv nachfragen oder Getränke bei der Bar holen. Der Pool war angeblich beheizt- gemerkt haben wir das leider nicht. Das Gym beschränkt sich auf einen kleinen functional Bereich. Keine Cardio Geräte, auch nur Outdoor und etwas schmutzig.
Fantastic experience. Helpful staff, great room, private pool is nice. Plenty of free parking, and the included breakfast is welcome and above average. Looking forward to staying here again during our next visit to Crete.
The Hotel was ok, much smaller than it looked in the pictures. All the Staff were lovely and couldn't have done more for us. The room was nice, kept clean and had most amenities except towel rails to hang the bath towels inside but, it did have a rack on the balcony. The tv channels were dated and not for English speaking guests, Paralos as a chain should use satellite television. The sun beds were a bit of a problem, as there wasn't enough for everyone, the occupants of the swim up rooms, used to lay on the other sun beds, as the swim ups were all in the shade most of the day, bit of a waste, so glad we didn't upgrade to one. The hotel says it has 2 restaurants, one is hardly ever used as its across the road and downstairs next to the underground carpark with a few chairs and tables more like a overflow carpark. The food was good but the same menu every day, gets a bit monotonous and could do with maybe theme nights to break it up. The beach is a minimum 10 minute walk away, not really a beach just stones and sand that was littered with rubbish. My overall rating would at a push a 3 star.
Amazing stay. Very tranquil property and extremely clean and well kept. Katerina was their absolute best waitress. If you did get anyone but her service was honestly subpar. And if you’re staying multiple days the menu can honestly become mundane. But there are restaurants just a quick 5 minute walk away. If you are looking to visit the beach more than the pool this isn’t the area to stay. The beaches are VERY rocky. Huge rocks.
Das war mit Abstand der beste Urlaub den wir je hatten. Das Hotel ist top!
Das Personal ist sehr herzlich, aufmerksam und nett.
Die Zimmer sowie die gesammte Anlage sind sehr sauber und schön.
Das Essen und die Drinks sind hervorragend. Der Standart ist wirklich hoch, Preis/Leistung ist sehr gut. Das Personal spricht teilweise Deutsch, die Menükarten gibt es auch in Deutsch.
Wir haben den Urlaub sehr genossen.
Besonders erwähnen möchten wir Antonios von der Rezeption, Georgeos, Chryssa und Aerish vom Service, sie haben unseren Aufenthalt zu etwas ganz besonderen gemacht. Der Serviceleiter ist extrem zuvorkommend, hat immer ein lächeln aif den Lippen. Aber es sind wirklich alle supernett.
Wir können das Hotel wirklich weiterempfehlen!
We had an amazing stay at Paralos Venus Suites! The food was absolutely incredible, and Julian at the bar and Katerina were both amazing. They made our experience even more special with their kindness and great service.
Our room was perfect, and I especially loved having YouTube Premium on the TV — such a nice touch! The property itself is beautiful, relaxing, and very well maintained.
My only complaints were that there weren’t always enough cabanas around the pool, so on some days it was difficult to find somewhere to sit. I also wish the servers came down to the pool more frequently to take drink orders.
One thing to know is that the property does not have a private beach. The beach is about a 7-minute walk away, and beach chairs with an umbrella are available to rent for €30. We also loved having a little corner store nearby, and the car rental place was super convenient and only about €40 for the day.
Overall, we had a fantastic experience. The food was amazing, the staff were wonderful, and the property was beautiful. We would absolutely come back! ❤️
Paralos Venus Suites : une parenthèse hors du temps ! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Il y a des hôtels où l’on passe de belles vacances. Et puis il y a ceux qui vous font vivre une expérience véritablement exceptionnelle. Le Paralos Venus Suites appartient incontestablement à cette seconde catégorie !
Dès notre arrivée, l’accueil était impeccable. Un établissement magnifique, à taille humaine, d’une propreté irréprochable, où tout semble pensé pour le confort et la tranquillité. Le concept adults only est un véritable bonheur.
Mais ce qui rend cet hôtel unique, c’est son personnel. Je n’ai jamais rencontré autant de gentillesse, d’attention et de disponibilité réunies au même endroit. Et je parle bien de TOUTE l’équipe ! Si je possédais un hôtel, ce sont exactement ces personnes que je voudrais pour accueillir mes clients. Un immense bravo !
La restauration est excellente : qualité, variété, fraîcheur, cocktails délicieux et service remarquable. Tout est parfaitement orchestré, dans une ambiance aussi agréable qu’apaisante.
Un petit reproche, tout de même, avec le sourire : les parasols des sun beds, pas toujours idéalement positionnés pour se protéger du soleil ! Si c’est notre seule critique, tout est dit !
Nous étions venus chercher du calme, du repos et du soleil. Nous avons trouvé bien davantage : une semaine où nous nous sommes sentis véritablement choyés, comme dans une bulle suspendue dans le temps.
Merci à toute l’équipe pour ces moments précieux. Nous reviendrons avec un immense plaisir !
Geschmackvoll eingerichtet, tolle Badaufteilung, schöne Poolbereiche, liegt in einer Sackgasse hinter den großen Hotels in der zweiten Reihe und ist daher sehr ruhig gelegen. Das Personal ist super freundlich, wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt. Gerne jederzeit wieder.
Un réel hôtel 5 étoiles, je n’ai absolu rien à ajouter. Le personnel est à l’écoute, les chambres sont incroyables et la nourriture est exquise.
Je recommande vivement cet hôtel
Sehr nettes zuvorkommendes Personal, das Frühstück war sensationell, das Bio Restaurant überragend, völlig unverständlich, dass wir die ersten waren, die alles komplett aufgegessen haben. Super ruhige entspannte Lage.
Das gesamte Personal war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Ein wirklich schönes, modernes und sauberes Hotel. Uns hat der Aufenthalt sehr gut gefallen und wir kommen gerne wieder.
We have stayed in dozens of hotels, rarely bad, but this was really great! In terms of welcome, treatment, cleanliness, breakfast, tranquility, room space, everything is really excellent. On our next visit to Crete we will definitely return to this hotel!
