Best Hotels in Georgioupoli, Greece

Solo traveler. April/may. 2/3 nights. 2nd floor. 1 pers room. 2 personal bed. A TV with a lot of broadcasts. The opportunity to put a cup of tea for yourself and write to the desk some cards to your family and friends or to go to a nice small but nice balcony and enjoy. Steady mattresses fine kitchens. Extra covers in the box if necessary. Spacious box to lose all your stuff. The safe and refrigerator are present. Long mirrors to be able to admire yourself before you go out of the door. Dark curtains. Nice bathroom, fine shower, shampoo and soap. Rooms are kept clean by the hard-working people of the cleaning. Breakfast is extensive and delicious. Personnel at the reception friendly and helpful. Kitchen staff and service also very friendly and helpful. The pool is present. But it wasn't filled since it was April. Fitness room present only not made time to use it. There's also the possibility to wash your clothes. Rethimno center/old town at walking distance. Many shops and food facilities in the surrounding area. I recommend a stay in this hotel.

If I could, I would have given this a 3.5 star review. I will start with the positives: - The beach in front of the hotel is excellent and the ”free” sunbeds were very good (although at busy times, they get full by 10am so bear that in mind if you like a late start to your day). - Corissia Park is lovely with its large swimming pool and restaurant. - Buffet breakfast was very good and varied. The freshly made waffles were a highlight. - Our room was spacious and had a much needed fridge and good air-conditioning (but read on about its negatives). - Location is great, literally 1-2 minutes walk between room, beach, Corissia Park, village centre, supermarket etc. The things that could (and should - given the price we paid) have been better: - The hotel is advertised as being 4-stars. Our room was not in the actual hotel building but about 60 metres away. It was basically a very basic 2-room Airbnb type accommodation, but with no kitchen or living room. Nowhere near 4-star quality. The furniture was basic and unattractive. The walls were full of marks from dead mosquitoes, cleaners just ignored them. The toilet always had an unpleasant smell. We bought our own air-freshener to use while we stayed there. - Cleaning, in general, wasn't great. Cleaners would come in the afternoon, not in the morning and the quality of the cleaning was so-so. - I mentioned earlier that buffet breakfast was great. Buffet dinner was not as good. Whereas breakfast includes free water, juices etc, dinner does not include anything to drink at all - not even water. A 1-litre bottle of water costs a shameful 3.60 Euros! In Greece, most restaurants provide free tap water or charge a very small amount for bottled water. 3.60 Euros for a 1-littre bottle of water in Greece is an absolute rip-off and shows disrespect towards the hotel's customers. - The hotel attracts mainly German tourists, which is absolutely fine, they were very well behaved and I like German people and have visited Germany many times. However, it is not just Germans that visit the hotel (we heard several non-German languages spoken by guests!). The hotel only seems to make an effort to please German guests however. When we were given the instructions to join the wi-fi, they were in German only! The TV in our room had pretty much only German channels - not even any Greek ones despite being in Greece! - Customer service from the hotel reception was hit and miss. The people at reception didn't feel very friendly or trying hard to help. Maybe because we didn't speak German? We expected better. Overall, we did enjoy our stay, but given the premium prices we paid (over 300 Euros per night) we did expect better.

Positiv zu bewerten ist die außerordentliche Freundlichkeit des Personals, insbesondere im a-la-carte-Restaurant. Auch Bemängelungen am Zimmer wurden unverzüglich erledigt. Leider hatten wir während unseres 3-wöchigen Aufenthalts ein Zimmer (Superior mit eigenem Pool), das nicht im Haupthaus, sondern straßenseitig gelegen war. Rechter Hand hatten wir eine Autovermietung, ggü. einen Shop und links eine Taverne, die tagein tagaus Fisch grillte, so dass wir auf der Terrasse kaum sitzen konnten. Zudem war es von der Straße her recht laut, also nichts mit Ruhe. Wir haben VP gebucht, da in unserem Buchungsportal leider kein all inclusive angeboten wurde. Das Essen haben wir im a-la-carte Restaurant am Abend und im Corissia Park am Mittag eingenommen. Wir bezeichnen das 5-Gänge-Menü am Abend als mittelmäßig, es war gut, jedoch für ein 5-Sterne-Haus nicht unbedingt raffiniert, zudem meist nicht einmal sehr heiß. Rucola-Salat werden wir hier zu Hause erst mal nicht mehr essen, davon haben wir dort genug bekommen. Das Mittagessen hatte etwas von Schnellrestaurant, gesund ernähren kann man sich hier nicht. Es gab entweder Hamburger, Pizza, Pommes oder mit schwerer Majonaise zubereiteten César Salat. Gyros haben wir dort einmal gegessen, war u. E. Kein hochwertiges Fleisch, uns hat es nicht geschmeckt. Die Auswahl war eingeschränkter, als bei den all-inclusive-Gästen, für sie gab es eine andere Karte. Was uns letztlich noch ein wenig sauer aufgestoßen ist, war die Tatsache, dass wir am Abreisetag das Mittagessen hätten selbst bezahlen sollen, da auschecken um 12 Uhr angesagt ist, es Mittag aber erst ab 13 Uhr gibt. Das entzieht sich unserem Verständnis, da wir bei der Anreise nach 22 Uhr zwar Abendessen (kein 5-Gänge Menü, da das Restaurant schon zu hatte) bekommen haben, nach unserem Verständnis wir aber am Abreisetag noch Anspruch auf 2 Mahlzeiten, nämlich Frühstück und Mittagessen haben. Erst dann hat man für 21 Tage 3 Mahlzeiten pro Tag erhalten. Das wurde zwar vom Reisebetreuer der Anlage zu unseren Gunsten geregelt, mit der Begründung, das sei im Corissia nicht üblich, in Ordnung ist das jedoch nicht. Einzukalkulieren ist bei VP, dass man die Getränke außer beim Frühstück selbst zahlen muss. 0,5 Liter Bier für 5,50 EUR ist kein Schnäppchen. Hier darf man bei 3 Wochen Aufenthalt mal locker noch mal 400,— EUR für die Getränke und 84,— EUR für die Kurtaxe bei 4,— EUR/Tag hinzurechnen. Bei einem Pauschalreisepreis von fast 6.000,— EUR überlegen wir uns das das nächste Mal sicherlich. Die Infrastruktur in Georgiopoulis ist eine Katastrophe, wenn wir geduscht haben, hat sich das Licht gedimmt. Die offene Bauweise des Zimmers finden wir gewöhnungsbedürftig, wenn einer nachts aufs WC gegangen ist, war der andere wach. Die Spülung war sehr laut, zudem war der Fußbodeneinlauf so verdreckt, dass ein Geruchsverschluss nicht gegeben war. Hat man dort die Tür ein wenig offen gelassen, roch das ganze Zimmer sehr unangenehm. Wir würden hier nicht noch einmal

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful hotel. The beds were good and once we'd got to grips with the 'boutique' style room (not hugely spacious) we found a home for everything. The food was varied, beautifully presented and totally delicious! We were able to choose sun loungers in the shade or sun at any time of day. There are plenty of them and they are wide and comfortable. The staff here are superb; friendly, helpful and totally professional. The whole hotel is immaculate and extremely quiet - which is exactly what we wanted. We have no hesitation in recommending La Mer to other travellers who are looking for some peace and quiet, with comfort and excellent food.

Size isn't everything. It's not a big resort, so you can expect smaller/fewer pools and bars etc .. However, it's more intimate and tucked away in a lovely village called Kalyves you can stroll around, nicely located on an lovely beach. We never had any issues at all during our stay, and there was a good holiday a**osphere. The food options were better than I thought. You had a range of coffee/teas, juice/water and pastries, bread, egg, meat and salads and fruit/cereal for breakfast. Lunch and dinner buffets were served 1-3pm and from 7pm onwards and there was fish/meat salad, rice/pasta, chips and plenty of food plus assorted desserts. There wasn't a huge variety day to day, but it genuinely kept all of us happy and satisfied. We only once ate outside the hotel and that was because of a day trip. Above expectation buffet food is what I'd call it. The Kalyves staff were all helpful and professional. There was evening entertainment in the form of a disco/quiz and local music and Cretan dancers, we even had a belly dancer one night, which seemed to fascinate the children and older men alike. Most of the guests seemed to head to bed by 10pm so it's not a party hotel. We never heard any partying late in the night or had any noise issues. The rooms were spacious and comfortable and promptly cleaned daily if requested. In our room we also had a fridge which was handy, a mini-balcony which overlooked the small estuary and Sea. I can confirm the Wifi speed was reliable, but not super fast at around 5MBPS. Fortunately, if you use mobile data I had great speeds for 4G, so used that most of the time. We had the All-Inclusive Plus package, which means you get a different colour wristband and get access to premium drinks. This meant you could go and ask for a Mojito or a Pina Colada or Screwdriver and get the branded alcohol. That being said the standard cocktails were quite nice anyway. I'll never be a fan of Cretan beer, but it's on tap you can help yourself, plus wine etc .. My partner particularly enjoyed the Aperol Spritz. There is a small indoor pool and gym, and we found this handy for our son who can't yet swim, and it was never busy in there, almost like a private pool at times, but only about a metre deep (yes, there is a lifeguard). The outdoor pools are small and were a bit cold in May, but refreshing. The best thing is the beach and the loungers are just feet away from the drinks bar, and we found ourselves mixing pool and beach time with ease. There's outdoor showers if you want to wash your feet. You can also have a lovely stroll along the beach and there's some nice shops, restaurants and cocktail bars nearby, you can even walk 10 minutes and be at the marina where we had a nice cruise with Kalyves Cruises (nice guys who spoke English and took us on a tour for about 4 hours, with stops for swimming and snorkelling with a little bit of history thrown in). Not far away, about 10 minutes by car/taxi is their sister resort (much bigger) call

Like the other reviews, the staff are what make to hotel a pleasant experience. Francesca, Tony, Natasha and Stella where amazing hosts for my stay. They were always warm and helpful through out my week with them. My favorite amenities was having a morning yoga session with Francesca on the rooftop with a sea view. Was a great way to start the day. I really hope the owner/management show appreciation to retain good staff that take pride in the job. A little can go a long way. I had a sea view room on the 1st floor which was cute. The room was clean and had Netflix Disney+ and YouTube on the TV which was really good if you want in room entertainment. Perhaps the bathroom's could do with a make over as whilst they are clean, they are quite dark and grey looking but fine in terms of functionality. I opted for the half board option and was a little bit apprehensive, as I usually am whenever I travel as I am vegan and worry about options. I did email the hotel 2 weeks before to let them know and I did see it was noted down on my paperwork when I checked in which was good. Dinner on the rooftop exceeded my expectations as there was options or alternatives I could have for my dinner so it didnt get boring having the same thing every day. However I do wish there was more option at breakfast as I ended up just having veg and potatoes which was not the most thrilling. The food at breakfast was not very hot also even when it came straight out the kitchen. It would have been nice to have the same level in variety as at dinner. For example, the fresh orange juice each morning was delightful but it would have been nice to also have fresh smoothies too. Also, having veggie sausages and pancakes at breakfast and vegan yogurt as these things do exist and should be more widely available. Hotel is widely accessible to the beach and shops which is literally stones throw away. Nice spot if you are a female solo traveler like myself who wants to have a restful vacation experience.

Duplex and elegant room, duplex room is beautiful and comfortable The toilet and bath tank are separated, it is comfortable to soak up. The balcony is facing the old street, very European style There is a TV in the living room and bedroom, the TV has many functions, and the mobile phone can also projection. The night shift service staff is very good, the cleaning aunt is very serious The kitchen is a heating stove, but only a porcelain container? Stainless steel is safer and better heated
