Executive Summary of Seaside A Lifestyle Resort - Adults Only in Crete

Just returned home from 2 weeks here. The location of this hotel is beautiful, the views are stunning. There is also a nice little beach to walk to with a couple of tavernas and a bar. The room was beautiful, clean, spacious, centrally located with a fantastic view (228) . Although the maid only came every 3 days due to COVID if you needed any more water or towels or anything you could just message the manager and it would arrive within minutes. The food was outstanding, although you could tell they had a more limited selection than normal due to the food having to be served there was always a great selection and I’d say some of the best all inclusive food I’ve ever eaten. When you arrive make sure you book into the speciality restraunts as they book up quickly

A hotel filled with staff that are super friendly and helpful doing their utmost during this new normal. The food choice is currently understandably reduced, but nevertheless there is something for everyone.Social distancing was a problem, especially poolside so we used the nearby beach almost every day. Couldn’t get booked into the side restaurants at all (probably due to CoVid),. The local beach has a restaurant, a taverna and a bar, so no problem if you don’t want to return to the hotel for lunch, gift store and mini, mini market on site, car hire on site from a local provider with others close to the hotel. The hotel also provides a laundry service, but didn’t use it so can’t comment. Beach towels are provided which you can exchange everyday,. If like us, you use Jet2 and have the evening flight, you still have to check out at 11, but the hotel provide a luggage room, access to showers and changing rooms so that your last few hours can still be sun soaked, towels and shower wash are all there. Overall a pleasant experience

Just returned from wonderful week at the Sea Side Resort and Spa.We stayed in a sea view room with private pool and the location/ view was out of this world. Room was lovely and air con great as every day was 30 degrees plus.We wanted a relaxing week and this is what exactly what we had.The main adult pool was very busy most days but we preferred to spend the day at our own pool anyway so this wasn’t an issue.The buffet was good, still enough choice even with the current situation and staff having to serve you. All the staff were extremely friendly and helpful and always had a smile even when wearing masks.The pool bar was our favourite place to enjoy a drink with a view although every inch of the hotel seems to have a spectacular view due to the cliff top location. Would definitely recommend and hope to return in the future

My partner and I visited this resort for a quick 4 night trip away and were absolutely thrilled by the whole holiday. The all inclusive food was very well made, drinks were tasty and the service staff exceptional. We were constantly checked up on by staff and reception were very quick to assist with water, cleaning, taxi services and recommendations. Mike in the evening bar alongside Katrina were very warming and entertaining. Already planning a trip back sometime next year!

We spent 9 nights at this hotel and overall we had a great holiday. The hotel is clean and tidy, the gardens are beautifully kept and the views are just stunning. You get panoramic vistas from most rooms, all bars, restaurants and the public pools too.We took a shared private pool with about 8 other rooms. The pool was an infinity salt water pool (all are salt water). From ours we looked down onto the beach cove which is a must with your snorkel and beach shoes.The food was plentiful and well prepared. It got a little monotonous after a while, but that’s buffet AI for you. The three A La Carte restaurants are worth a visit and so is Taverna Vasilis on the beach.Staff do an amazing job even in these strange times.Where I think it needs improving is:- shared pool service. It would be nice to see a waiter twice a day to bring drinks to the private pools- think of ways to improve the range of food. Special theme nights for example- perhaps the wine and beer could be a little better qualityWe would have no hesitation in booking again.

The Seaside Hotel has stepped upto the challenge of providing a first class inclusive holiday in difficult times pandemic times.The hotel has three good a le carte restaurants which you can go to once each during your 7 day stay, but you do have to pay for the Alcholic drinks in these restaurants. The Breakfasts offer a great selection and entry of fresh fruit and Greek Yoghurt. Then lunch and dinner are of a high standard to but maybe does come abut samey after a while... But that is the case with most inclusive hotels. The bars are very fair with the drinks offering a good standard in the inclusive menu. We stayed in a superior room and this had a great view.. See attached pic.. These are well laid out rooms and cleaned every 3 days.. There are limited activities at this tine from Yoga to Tennis and there are no extra charges. The hotel has introduced good controlled measures so you feel safe but at ease... Well done to the management team here. If you want to get life back to some kind of normality you won't go far wrong here.
