“Fabulous! Best staff ever. Location fab!”

Everything! Staff fab! Victoria fab! Cleaning fab! Location fab! Pool fab! Ok…maybe pool bar lady could do with some manners. But run separate to the hotel!

The receptionist was so kind and helpsome 😊😊

“A very relaxing holiday in beautiful surroundings.”

The location was excellent. Close to the beach and shops and restaurants. Beautifully kept gardens. The rooms were kept very clean and the staff on the reception desk were very friendly , efficient and knowledgable.

“Pleasant”

Marina Sands is a very cozy and pleasant 2 star hotel. The hotel is 60 meters from the beach and between the rooms and the beach is the pool with a restaurant that serves both cold and hot dishes as well as snacks and beer/drinks. The rooms are designed in an older standard, my bathroom had, for example, a bathtub and a shower curtain which you cannot normally count on in Crete. The furniture in the room are an older type but functional. modern television. My hotel booking included AC and a safe. So when you book, check if AC is included or not, otherwise the cost will be added.if your want to have a AC. The breakfast consists of a few types of bread. different marmalades. 2 different Mortladella sausages and cheese. Tomato and cucumber..Boiled egg. Greek Yoghurt with honey or with preserved fruit. Melon. Coffee/Tea and 3 juices. The hotel area consists of 2-storey buildings with narrow corridors with well-kept beautiful vegetation Lot of the hotel guests are coming back year after year.so it also means that the hotel delivers much quality to be a 2 star hotel. But in my eyes it is at least a 3 star hotel. I will be back

“Wonderful stay on the beach!”

Great pool in front of the beach, beautiful colorful houses and lovely flowers around! The sunset was amazing and easy access to the beach. The rooms was spacious and came with its own balconie and had air conditioning.

“Perfect place for relaxation”

Basic apartment but met all our needs, very relaxing atmosphere , perfect location , two steps one way-supermarket with everything you need, two steps the other way-beach and the sea with the warmest and cleanest water I have seen in Europe. Clean beach , no plastic floating around you . Simple but tasty breakfast. Recommend the place if you want to switch off from-your everyday problems and relax.

“It was nice!”

Location was good!

“great location, nice heated pool and rooms”

The staff, the garden, the pool, the location

The Wi-Fi did not work

“smelly room, next to the sewage. guess why they don’t let you cancel”

Smells from the sewage and from the mold on the walls was unbearable. I left after the first night. The room looks like something from the 80s, where they have been painting over the mold on the walls for many years. My room had some strange hole in the wall in the bathroom - smelly and moisty sewage access. Garden view was nonexistent - metal doors to the tarrace was the only window in the room. Super loud AC. The beach is dangerously rocky just at the line where the water beginns.

“Great place for a holiday”

Everything was just fine, the hotel looks amazing and is so close to the beach, rooms are clean, the staff is extremely helpful, the food is delicious and fresh. The view from the balcony makes you feel like you are in heaven. Last but not least important the flora in the hotel is beautiful and different.
