I had an amazing holiday at this beautiful resort and village. The stay was incredibly relaxing with wonderful, welcoming staff. The cleanliness of the hotel was impressive. While the food was great in the evenings, the breakfast options could use some improvement. The location was fantastic with plenty of nearby eateries, but the room we booked was a bit underwhelming for its price.

The one-bedroom executive suite had a fabulous sea view, although it was on the smaller side and had a very small balcony. However, the shared private terrace made up for it somewhat.

I had a fantastic time at the resort! The architecture is beautiful, with pools at various levels, and the clean, spacious rooms provided a relaxing atmosphere. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive. However, I found the breakfast selection a bit basic and the fitness center on the smaller side. Overall, it’s a wonderful place for both families and couples looking for a cozy getaway.

I had a lovely stay at this resort, especially enjoying the clean and spacious rooms with essential air conditioning after a day in the sun. The lineup of amenities was great, although the dining options could use some flavor improvement. The atmosphere was quite relaxing, and the staff were always welcoming. However, I felt there could be more attention to detail in some areas of service, such as meal offerings and entertainment in the rooms.

My stay at Esperides Resort in Crete was truly delightful! The rooms were spacious and offered splendid views of both the pool and the sea. The service was remarkable, particularly from staff members like Franchesca, who went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. Koutouloufari village's charm combined with easy access to local attractions was an absolute win. On the downside, the dining options could be improved, as some dishes were not up to the high standards one would expect at such a lovely resort, and the spa treatments came with extra costs that added up quickly.
