Atlantica Amalthia Beach Hotel – Adults only

The staff is very friendly and helpful. The morning breakfast is plentiful. The rooms are clean and the view of the beach is nice. Lots of pool options.

Upgrades to a suite, 2 rooms and large balcony, although it did have a road view. Reserving sun beds with towels very early at the front pool next to the beach in a morning & only turning up at 11.30am! This hotel was very nice, would return.

Very big and spacious. Gym could have been bigger with air conditioning. You can get dehydrated very easily

Loveliest staff. Lovely place. Felt very lucky to have found this hotel . The staff were so accommodating .

Our garden room was no more than a patch of grass

The vacation here was really nice. The hotel employees are friendly and very helpful. The breakfast was extraordinary. There were a lot of choices. I favored the pancakes. You should get those. The only remark I have are the rooms. If you get the old rooms, you hear everything your neighbours are doing. I mean everything. And they should renovate the bathroom. But it was always cleaned very thoroughly. Besides that everything was top notch. Most outstanding the hotel Personal which was so friendly and the beach front if course :)

Unser Superior Garden View Appartement war sehr geräumig und angenehm ruhig. Im Hotel sind ganz gemischte Gäste von jung bis alt, sehr angenehme entspannte Atmosphäre. Wir haben um 11:00 immer Liegen am Pool oder Strand bekommen, nur einmal sind wir auf die Liegen des benachbarten Strandabschnitts ausgewichen, aber das war genauso gut. Dort musste man 15€ Umsatz mit Getränken oder Snacks für einen Schirm und zwei Liegen machen, also im Prinzip sogar günstiger als am hoteleigenen Strandabschnitt (10€, aber nicht auf Bestellungen anrechenbar). Supermarkt und viele Restaurants in der Nähe, nach Chania mit Bus (oft sehr voll) nur 25 Minuten für 2€ pP. Sehr zu empfehlen. Mitarbeiter waren immer superfreundlich, rundum ein toller Urlaub!

Great people

Veldig bra hotell med gode senger, godt utvalg til frokost og hyggelig betjening☺️

Everything we needed was within walking distance....The convenience was a very important quality for us plus staff at hotel utmost helpful. I will definitely come back yo hotel and area

Highly recommended to anyone looking for a top-tier hospitality experience.

This is a pleasant hotel with very friendly staff. The rooms are adequate but tired. There are not enough sun beds by the pool areas for everyone. The beach sun beds are €5 per day per bed. They do bring water in an ice bucket for that. The beach is very clean. There isn’t a lot to do in local area except walk out to restaurants. Most interesting places to visit are over 1hr away you need a car. Breakfast is just ok. The hotel food at lunch time is lovely and good quality. There is a gym but so small and very hot with no air conditioning, not pleasant. There was music entertainment 3 times a week and it was very nice,

Had an excellent stay at this hotel would highly recommend this to people heading to Agia Marina

Hotel is immaculate, beautiful pool, easy access to the beach, food in the Waves beach bar was amazing and huge portion sizes, short €2 bus journey to Chania port. Highly recommend this hotel

Old room with terrible matress and pillows. Bathroom got floded after every shower and staff where mostly rude and unfriendly. Only Hotel in Crete where I was no treated as a cherised guest but more like a burden. Only hotel out of 3 I stayed in the Island that charged the sunbeds. Avoid, sure there are better options out there.

Poor wifi signal in one of the rooms. Good breakfast. Close to beach. Clean property. Friendly staff.

Good quality hotel. Staff were very good and always there to help. Excellent location. Very clean. Communal areas very good. Room was a little basic though (I would class as 3 star and not 4 star). Good value, would recommend.

Tolle Lage,direkt am Strand,super Frühstück und sehr nettes,hilfsbereites Personal. Agia Marina ist aber kein beschauchlicher,ursprünglicher Ort,sondern eine lange touristische Straße mit vielen Restaurants und Tourigeschäften. Das Hotel hat uns sehr gut gefallen, allerdings ist es sehr schwer eine Liege am Pool zu ergattern,die 26 vorhandenen Liegen werden am frühen Morgen größtenteils für den Tag besetzt. Leider achtet das Hotelpersonal da gar nicht drauf. Und die Liegen am hoteleigenen Strand kosten 10 €(2 Liegen und ein kleiner mittiger Tisch). In den 10 € sind 2 kleine ,eisgekühlte Wasserflaschen erhalten.

Gutes Hotel. Eher neu. Am Strand. Mit Passerelle über die Strasse, die sehr befahren ist und sehr Riskant. SPA ist leider wirklich nicht zu empfehlen. Pools sind mega schön und Liegestühlr sind super. Das selbe gilt am Strand. Das Personnal ist sehr Nett und reagiert schnell sobald man etwas fragt. Frühstuck sehr variiert und fein. Die Zimmern sind sehr neu und sauber. Dazu sind sie gut isoliert und verfügen über ein A/C das sehr effektiv und leise ist. Wir können das Hotel definitiv empfehlen.

The new section, across the road, is very nice. The other one is a bit older.

Wir hatten ein Deluxe-Zimmer mit Meerblick. Das Zimmer ist im neuen/ renovierten Teil des Hotels. Das Zimmer war sehr schön und renoviert mit Balkon. Man muss wissen, dass dieser Teil des Hotels auf der anderen Straßenseite liegt und weiter vom Meer weg ist. Also keine direkte Meerlage erwarten. Es gibt in diesem Teil des Hotels zwei Etagen mit mehreren Pools. Den Hauptteil des Hotels kann man über eine Brücke erreichen. Das Frühstück war ein Buffet. Hier gab es alles, was man braucht. Leider liegt der Frühstücksraum nicht schön. Er grenzt direkt an die Straße und einen Parkplatz und hat keinen großen Aussenbereich. Vielleicht gibt es in er Saison noch einen anderen Raum (wir waren im Oktober dort). Im Freibereich zum Meer gibt es auch einen Pool und ein Restaurant sowie kostenlose Liegestühle mit Sonnenschirm am Strand. Alles ist sehr hochwertig ausgestattet.

Ditectement sur la plage. De belles grandes chambres qui ont été rénovées si vous êtes du côté de la plage, sinon l'autre immeuble l'autre côté de la rue est neuf. Le déjeuner délicieux. Je recommande !!!

Super service og dejligt hotel

The whole complex was one of the best hotels I've ever stayed on location. Scenery the staff, the waiters the conciergers We're spectacular. The most comfortable vacation place I have ever stayed. The breakfasts were just unmatchamachable.They had every possible Greek food American food that you could want..spotless, not one bad smell or odor.The sea was pristine. A REAL GEM IN CHANIA...4.9 Stars

Our stay was so unsatisfactory that we left after one night of our three-night stay. On my part there may have been a misunderstanding about room type, but the staff was very rude when discussing it and made no effort to help or understand. We had to carry heavy bags upstairs - no assistance was offered. When we asked for an extra blanket for a sofa bed we were told they didn’t have any extra. They later found one. The room was musty smelling and the sofa beds were sagging badly. The next day when we told them we were leaving and asked if we might get any credit, instead of talking to us nicely, the manager blamed us and was very rude and angry. There are many hotels very nearby, I’m sure some must be better. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Modern/ruhig/direkt am Meer/mehrere tolle Pools/super Poolbar/klasse Frühstück mit großer Auswahl/nettes Personal/einfach ein schöner Urlaub!!!

This is a tough one to rate, as one hand some parts were fabulous and others not so good. I’ll start with the bad. Our room was very dated and not in a great state we had an old style safe with a lock but had no key. We asked on our first day if we could upgrade by paying some more. They took my mob number and advised they may have something tomorrow. I got a message that evening asking me to come to reception to discuss moving room. I went the next day and spoke to someone else who advised no rooms come back tomorrow again. I thought strange as I have this message asking specifically to come to discuss moving rooms. They advised no what Tatiana meant was that I could see if there was a room (which there wasn’t) which makes zero sense at all and a complete waste of time. The second run in I had with the staff was that we were out there for a friends wedding. On the day I realised we didn’t have an ironing board. We asked at reception and they advised they don’t have one. After a lot of back and forth they managed to find one. Whilst I’m appreciative, I see it as a bit deceptive. The last con is the staff again, 3 times we asked our room to be cleaned & the staff would turn over the room sign around and it hadn’t been touched. Apart from that they were okay. Positives are that we had a lovely time in Crete, the beach being so close and by the pool was amazing. Easy to get the bus or taxi into Chania. Would we stay again, maybe if the dates rooms were updated & staff improved

Best place I have ever stayed during my trips highly recommended property. every thing 5 stars not to mention the fact that it is the safest place I have ever been especially Anna the lovely lady that looked after out room. after I left the safe by mistake for 2 days and it was full of our documents and cash nothing was lost. All the best Anna wishing you all the best.

Très bon hôtel.

Die Bäder sollten renoviert werden. Dusche statt Badewanne!

Η διαμονή μας αρχισε με μια προσπάθεια να μας βάλουν να μείνουμε σε δωμάτιο standard part sea view ενώ είχαμε κλείσει superior sea view Η υπάλληλος προσπάθησε να μας πείσει ότι όλα τα δωμάτια του ξενοδοχείου βλέπουν και πισίνα και θαλασσα δηλ να μας κοροϊδέψει Όταν αρνηθήκαμε να μείνουμε εκεί και ύστερα από μισή ώρα μας έβαλαν σε delux sea view δηλαδή μας έκαναν υποτίθεται αναβάθμιση σε μεγαλύτερο και ακριβότερο δωμάτιο που όμως βλέπει τη θαλασσα από πολύ πιο μακριά από αυτό που κλείσαμε Άλλο πρόβλημα το πάρκινγκ Έχει μόνο 6-7 θέσεις για όλα τα δωμάτια Αλλοιώς στο δρόμο αν βρεις Ακούγεται θόρυβος από τα διερχόμενα αυτοκίνητα όλη τη νύχτα Πετσέτες θαλασσης δίνονται μόνο 10 -17 Εμείς ξεκινούσαμε νωρίς και γυρνούσαμε αργά όποτε έπρεπε να κάνουμε ολόκληρη ιστορία και διαπραγμάτευση για να παίρνουμε καθαρές κάθε μέρα Πρωινό μέτριο Γενικά δεν μείναμε ικανοποιημένοι

Vi bestilte rom med havutsikt og fikk utsikt over en parkeringsplass til et utested som spilte høy musikk til langt utpå natt.Det var ikke lett å få plass nær basseng på øvre plan da folk sto opp grytidlig for å legge håndklær på solsengene.Samme gjaldt Strand og hovedbassenget.Grei frokost.

Great Pools, Beach and bars. Easy access to Chania by bus if needed.

Kan starkt rekommendera hotellet. Vi var 2 vuxna och en dotter på 17 år. Bodde i ”gamla delen” men ändå fräscht. Personal i receptionen följde t.o.m. och visade vägen till gästernas rum. Otroligt rena, bekväma, lugna och snygga poolområden med lounge känsla och ligger man vid deras ”privata” område på stranden (dock mot betalning) ingick ishink med vattenflaskor och svalkande handdukar. Riktigt bra frukost för att vara på grekiskt hotell. Personalen fantastiskt trevliga överallt och vi kände oss väldigt väl omhändertagna. Kommer absolut återkomma om vi åker till Kreta igen.

Tutto bene

Veldig fint sted rett ved stranden. Gode restauranter i området. Veldig serviceinnstilt personale, hyggelige og blide. Veldig fint sted å være!

Our rooms were in the new part of the hotel, which is over a quite busy road from the main hotel, restaurant and beach (there is a bridge, but only a lift on one side). The rooms are modern and the cleaning is thorough, although what one would expect for a room at this price point. The breakfast is fine, lots of choice but not amazing quality, particularly the pastries, juice and coffee, although why it's in a room by reception and the road, and not in the restaurant by the beach is beyond me. The beach is nice, and the sea is clear and calm, however this is the first time I have ever been charged to use sun beds in in the hotel I'd paid to stay in. Most of the other bars and restaurants offer free sunbeds for customers, so probably better to use theirs. We had a poor experience on check out when we were told that we hadn't paid our hotel tax (€7 per room per night), which is meant to be paid on arrival. We had paid this, and showed proof on the banking app on our phone, however this was not good enough for the receptionist who asked that I found the paper receipt at the bottom of my bag, which proved we had indeed paid the charges when checking in. A disappointing end to a good stay.

Nydelig sted og god service. Vi storkosa oss. Benyttet også spa behandlinger anbefales.

Property is very dated. Beach is horrible not walkable and too far from town. Barman made a fuss over ice. In general i would not recommend to anybody. It is barely a two star hotel.

Very welcoming. Lovely stay (3 nights). Nice breakfast. Very nice restaurants and mini market near hotel. There is a 10 euro daily charge if you want to sit on the beach chairs. We were not informed of this charge so was surprised when a gentleman walked over to us about this daily charge. You can sit at the pool near the beach and not be charged. I would recommend to friends & family.

Hyvä hotelli. Muuten kaikki hyvää paitsi aamupala saisi olla monipuolisempi.

Great adults only hotel, loads of restaurants just a short walk away. Great breakfast options at the buffet for B&B. And really easy bus links for €2 or a €15 taxi into Chania!

Clean, cosy and comfort hotel. Breakfast a bit noisy if you dont go first at early morning.

Didn’t enjoy the 2 twin beds in lieu of a king or queen.

Petit déjeuné à renouveler et massage trop chère

solid

Hotelli koostuu uudesta ja vanhasta puolesta. Majoituttiin vanhalla puolella (junior suite) ja huone oli kutakuinkin yleisilmeeltään parhaat päivänsä nähnyt ja esimerkiksi huoneen nojatuoli oli varmaan alkuperäistä kalustoa.

AMAZING staff so helpful and kind, everything was clean and well thought out. Lots of dining options nearby and the bus station (to and from chania - ab 20 min) is super convenient, 1 min walk away from hotel. Food was yummy but the restaurant for dinner could use more options. Everyone was very friendly and we had an amazing time. Beach chairs are limited and need to be paid for (keep in mind).

Très bon séjour

Et veldig gjennomsnittlig hotell, som markedsfører seg bedre enn det er. Bildene svarer ikke til forventningene. Delux-delen, som de kaller det, har fine bassenger og deilig solsenger. Resepsjonisten var rask å påpeke at vi ikke bodde der, men at vi var heldige og kunne få bruke området. Solsengene på stranden må du betale for. Den eldre delen av hotellet fremstår som noe sliten, det samme med rommene. Badet er klart for oppussing, med lite trykk i dusj og vask, samt en konstant klam lukt. Stenger du vinduet kan det kjennes kloakklukt. Servicen er varierende. Barpersonalet var hyggelig, men resepsjonen bærer preg av en gjeng ansatte som har betjent charterturister litt for lenge og som ikke er på tilbudssiden. Lite imøtekommende og løsningsorienterte. Ble også vitne til at en gjest nærmest ble kjeftet på av resepsjonisten fordi han hadde forlagt nøkkelen sin og ville sjekke om den var innelåst på rommet. Vi ble heller ikke spurt om hvordan vi hadde hatt det, eller om vi trengte transport videre ved utsjekk. Kommunikasjonen besto av her er ditt utestående beløp og her er kvitteringen, takk og hei! Fin frokost, og hyggelig kokk. Vi har en feriebolig på Kreta, men synes det er hyggelig med et avbrekk fra familien i noen dager, dessverre kommer vi ikke til å returnere til dette hotellet eller anbefale det videre.

Wir buchten ein Standard Room Gartenview, leider. Das erhaltene Zimmer (Nr. 108, mit Aussicht auf Hecke und Gebäudefassade) enttäuschte durchwegs. Es müffelre, hatte verschimmelte Fugen, die Armaturen waren uralt und ausserdem war es selbst bei Tageslicht sehr dunkel im Zimmer. Wir fühlten uns unwohl, dass wir uns bei der Reception meldeten. Der Service war zwar freundlich und verstand unsere Enttäuschung. Jedoch mussten wir uns selbst eine Lösung ausdenken. So wechselten wir nach einer Nacht in ein Deluxezimmer mit Meersicht (natürlich gegen Aufpreis! Vom Manager gab es nur eine Reduktion von 10€ pro Nacht…). Dieses neue Zimmer war toll und wir fühlten uns wohl. Die Pools sind toll. Jedoch blieb der erste negative Eindruck hängen, weshalb wir dieses Resort nicht mehr buchen würden. Allen anderen empfehlen wir direkt ab Anfang ein Deluxezimmer zu buchen, da diese neuwertig sind. Die Standardrooms entsprechen dem alten amerikanischen Hotelcharakter, was unserer Meinung nach auch nicht mehr zum sonst modernen Hotelresort passt.

Das Hotel bietet einen super Service. Das Frühstück wechselt täglich und es gibt ein großes Angebot am Frühstücksbuffett. Das Zimmer war geräumig und ruhig. Das Hotel bietet drei Pools und hat einen eigen Zugang zum Strand. Der Strand war sehr gepflegt.Im Allgemeinen kann ich nur jedem dieses Hotel wärmstens empfehlen.

wonderful stay. Clean an efficient. Staff generally good but sometimes a little "short". great breakfast included. Poollovely and beach is clean, well attended by staff. Need to pay for use of lounges at beach but water is included as well as some niceties. Would definitely recommend this property

Great staff, very clean facilities, well organized

Fint hotell, men veldig stort. Det som trekker ned er elendig wifi tilkobling, maur på rommet og litt dårlig rengjøring. Men, hun som lager omelettene skal ha MYE skryt. Den eneste av de ansatte på hotellet som faktisk sa hei og pratet med gjestene. Tax som betales bør gjøres ved innsjekk, ikke utsjekk.

Modern, beautiful and clean hotel. Excellent service.

Beautiful hotel within a lovely setting. Own beach and pool with bar restaurant. Very tranquil place that you could easiy come alone to and feel right at home. Breakfast much improved and the whole place uplifted. Recommended if in the area or for a week in the sun.

Perfekt boende

Very pleasant stay

We had the most wonderful vacation at the hotel. We just loved every bit of it and will be mostly happy to come again. It's actually the first time that the photos at the site are less than reality. mostly recommend to stay at the new part of the hotel - at the southern section.

The new pool area was great and the breakfast buffet had a good choice, but so many little things spoiled the stay for us. The hotel is just OK, not quite what it's billed up to be, never felt that welcome there, despite the staff being great and helpful. Had the ambiance of a conference centre and so many penny pinching decisions just left a sour note on our stay. The beds are not queen size, but 2 singles pushed together with one pillow and are not very comfy. Wifi is terrible in the hotel - had to complain a few times, as at some points of the day it's just impossible to get on and it's always dropping off, even the staff were complaining about it. Luckily the hotels and bars either side had good connections, so had to go around there. The beach is great here in Agia Marina, but please use the bar beaches either side, as they are free to use - very disappointed to be charged 10Euros a day to use the beds and umbrella for 2 people, as it is billed a private beach for use of the guests - which was our main reason for our stay there. Was a real stupid move by the hotel to do so, as they lost so much money to the neighbouring beach bars, which served better food and drink at better prices and a lot speedier too. The safe in the room is a joke, trying to charge you to use it and it will only fit in your passport and mobile phone.Just another example of the penny pinching going on. But the worst of it all was that they had a happy hour but only at the top pool area!

The greater newer part of the hotel is across the street from the Beach. So, most of the photos are from that property - the pools and Jacuzzis, and views of the Sea and mountains. On the Sea side of the property there are : Reception, Dinning and outdated "economy style" Beach area, and the original pool that also needs to be both redesigned and resurfaces to qualify for at least for "4 stars". The dinning Staff extremely unprofessional- do not recall all the names but one stands out most "Lola". Receptionist and Concierge, and Security - all one person, I would guess that they are currently undermanned. The over-all feeling - 4 star property with 3 star services.

hotel espectacular en la misma playa. Bien situado, cerca de restaurantes y a solo 15 minutos en coche de Chania. Varias piscinas para poder disfrutar del sol y servicio de hamacas de pago en la playa. Parking en la calle gratis y sin dificultad de encontrar plazas libres. Hotel muy nuevo y habitaciones amplias y modernas. Muy recomendable

Det är tre-stjärningt och därför är vi jätte nöjda, jätte charmig personal som gör sitt jobb och får en att känna sig hemma. Rummen är något uttaderade och sofforna är nog högläge att byta ut. Sängarna är ok det som är kul är att det finns en dusch och badkar…så ingen kö när man ska duscha efter badet. Hotellet har en egen strand i direktanslutning vilket är bekvämt, inte den vackraste av stränder men funkar utmärkt för lata dagar, längst stranden finns olika vattensporter typ jetski. Vi var nöjda

Got an upgrade to one of the new "deluxe" apartments. Everything was in an amazing condition and we enjoyed our stay a lot.

Wunderschönes Hotel mit tollem Strand. Wir waren sehr zufrieden. Wir bekamen ein Upgrade was und sehr freute. Die Zimmer sind sehr schön und sauber. Es gibt genügend Pools und das Meer ist sehr schön dort. Das Essen war super lecker. Das Feühstück war schön hergerichtet und man bekommt auch Sachen die es woanders nicht gibt. Wir hatten Halbpension was eine sehr gute Entscheidung war da wir jeden Abend ein 4-Gänge-Menü am Strand bekamen. Das Essen war lecker mit sehr großen Portionen. Die Corona Vorschriften sind sehr gut umgesetzt, man fühlt sich gut aufgehoben. Wir können das Hotel mit gutem Gewissen weiterempfehlen.

Great location and very good service. The beach for the hotel was really good.

Good location on the beach in Agia Marina and comfortable rooms. Breakfast area ok with some outside seating. Covid 19 precautions taken seriously so safe environment.

We had a fantastic holiday. Hotel was superb. Excellent location and brilliant staff

Hotel fully in line with expectations including views, food and service. Still, of all hotels visited in the region (4 during our 2 week holiday), this one decided to clean rooms only every second day, ironically “because of COVID”. All other hotels visited cleaned every day during COVID. Other than that, we very much enjoyed our stay, the service and tranquility!

Amazing pools and the sunbeds were the most comfortable one's I've ever used. Rooms were very modern with exceptional quality bedding and pillows. Breakfast buffet was a very high quantity with plenty of choices and exceptional survive. All of the staff were very friendly and very helpful with any requests.

We loved that there are 3 pools to choose from, our favourite was the top level pool across the road by our room. The room was incredibly clean, the beds were very comfy. Breakfast was great with a wide variety to choose from and the location was perfect - walking distance to lots of restaurants, car hire & supermarkets. 10/10!

Excellent location, friendly service, ok food, moderate prices

There was simply nothing that wasn't good about this hotel. Very friendly, warm & professional staff, exceptional cleanliness - Perfect location. Thank you to all the amazing team for a brilliant holiday. Looking forward to the next visit! Could not recommend Atlantica Amalthia Beach more highly.

We had a perfect stay. The staff were freindly and helpul; i can't fault them on anything.

Nice Hotel, Very clean and staff were lovely

Amalthia is a beautiful resort located in a privileged location in Agia Marina. Although located by the main road, the hotel is quiet with a relaxing atmosphere. I love the architecture, the staff was very friendly and helpful and our room was also quite cozy. The restaurant and bar by the pool/beach is a great place to hang out. Overall: wonderful place. I do have two minor complains: The shower was built in such way that it was impossible to avoid flooding the bathroom floor. We had to fit a towel around the glass frame to avoid this. The second one is the speed of service at the Wave restaurant. They are still very friendly but maybe there were not enough waiters the couple of times we've been there, increasing the waiting times. But in general, a fantastic place to relax. I'll definitely come back again!

Everything...the food, room, beach, staff...AAAA+++++

Great area, lots of things to walk to. Beach was quite rocky where we were so we walked down several blocks in order to go swimming. Resort pool was nice.. GREAT it was adults only. They offer free 15 minute massage and spa talked me into upgrading. Um, don't do it! I paid for 20 extra minutes of massage which was OK and 20 minutes of a olive oil body scrub which, I swear, was just 5 minutes long. I wish I had just done the free massage to try out the masseuse first. Also, room was VERY nice but beds were so so. They weren't the most comfortable and they were set up as 2 twin bed (with separate sheets and blankets) and nothing in the center to prevent you from falling through the middle if you tried to cuddle with your significant other. They should invest in bed connectors!!! Being a adults only resort, you'd think almost every guest would like 1 bed. strange!

The room was ok. I only had one spot to put a Luggage. I asked if there was more space and I was told no. The water kept leaking from the shower onto the floor. We were told we had to pay 10 euros to use the umbrellas and chairs even though we were guests if the hotel. Bar was overpriced for coffee and drinks 4 euros for a Fredo cappuccino and it was 2 euros at most on the main road right outside of hotel. Massage was great. Decently priced. There was no entertainment at hotel bar at night and soft music during the day.

This hotel is in a great location in Agia Marina just a short easy busy trip to Chaniá. The property has every thing you need for a great stay including beach access, a nice pool and a good quality breakfast to get your day started. While all of these things are important the and worth noting the absolute highlight of this property is it’s wonderful staff. Every single one of them made u feel welcome and comfortable which is a rare treat in many places I have stayed. Thank you Amalthea Staff!

Friendly staff and large room. Pool nice and right on beach. Bus stop to town and to Elafonisi and Paleochora right outside. Breakfast good but even better on days when pancakes are made fresh

After a long travel day, excellent place to relax. Small resort w/ very friendly & helpful staff. Our room was a 1 bedroom w/ seaview Our room also had a very nice balcony. Very well maintained beach w/ (again) very friendly, helpful, & attentive staff. Food at the beachside/poolside restaurant was good. Breakfast was very good. Fridge in the room so quite helpful to keep cool drinks in room. In fact, our room had a very small kitchenette if you wanted to cook in. Grocery store & other shopping very close. Only negative is bath tub w/ hand held shower - prefer regular shower stall.

bad stay don't try it

We have just come back from an 8 day stay at this hotel. From the moment we arrived to the day we left we were impressed with enthusiasm the whole staff - from Reception to gardener - had towards us to make this a perfect holiday for my wife and I . We were in room 26 which is a very comfortable sea view suite with separate lounge, mini kitchen and balcony. We didn't see one mosquito in it the whole time we were there. We had b&b included. The breakfast had a good variety of food - eggs and pancakes were cooked by a chef as you waited so very fresh. The Greek night with dancers is a must every Wednesday. There were always sun loungers around the lovely pool available in the morning but I expect this will change as July approaches. Pool was nice and warm to swim in. Sea was a bit colder but refreshing Straw umbrellas and sun loungers are available on the beach for a small extra cost (includes towels and chilled water. A masseuse works on the beach to the right of the hotel - had a 30 minute back massage that was very good. Free shaded car parking was available throughout our stay. The free wifi worked well in our room. Room was kept spotless by the maid. The food in the hotel's taverna was excellent and we dined there regularly. Cocktails from the bar were delicious - would recommend the strawberry dacquiri. For dinner out, we would recommend Manolis in the Old Town just up the hill. The best value convenience store was across the road to your left as you exit the hotel.

Loved everything about this hotel but the beds. I felt every spring in the thin mattresses. Everything else was great. The staff was very helpful and the food was good. Wish I had time for a massage as the services sounded very nice.

We generally liked the Amalthia Beach Resort. It's a good location and a beautiful site, but some poor management decisions and a few other issues let it down. The breakfast had some very odd choices, and I've been to 35 different countries including Greece 3 times, so I've seen some variety. Breakfast was a disappointment. The handheld shower head was a poor choice as well. While that may be helpful rinsing off sand, there should've been a wall mount also. Also, paying extra for towels and beach chairs is just very poor.

Lovely hotel on an indifferent high road. The staff are lovely but the food is more expensive than similar food in the many tavernas nearby. We found the bed far too hard. The pool area is lovely though I would have preferred cushioned loungers. We would happily go back. Many people we spoke to go back every year.

It was a pleasant stay. The hotel facilities were in an excellent condition, the resort was well located to explore the Chania region and right on the beach. The Agia Marina place is full of shops and restaurants but the road stretching through the town is very busy and quite dangerous to cross. Overall I would suggest it to a friend.

Excellent stay but need improvement on: 1. Wifi. 2. half board. 3. TV inside rooms.

Very small and boiling hot room, tiny bathroom.. Bad hotel staff.., smelly room we could not open a window

Good design to room which may be noisy if at front on main road.T.V.poor , aircon and fridge noisy,WiFi signal not too good.FOod at restaurant plentiful and tasty but can't be directly charged to pay one bill when leaving. Enjoyed breakfast and beach view is wonderful,hotel charging 8euros for 2 sunbeds but no beach towels available at their beach resort.
