Best Hotels near Folklore Museum of Gouves, Kato Gouves

It was an absolutely wonderful experience and I would surely recommend it to anyone who’s searching for a luxurious hotel to spend their free time. First of all, the staff was really kind, they always have smiles on their faces and they make you feel like home with their will to do anything that you can think of. I can clearly see the improvement they’ve made on every sector of the hotel in comparison with last year. Moreover, even the food menu is better as we tried some new special flavours that matched the elegant form of the hotel. Dining at the restaurants Makuti and Umami were two of the experiences that created in me the need to stay. Last but not least, Mrs.Anastasia Deligianni was the source of the positive energy for all the staff, as she first welcomed us with a very big smile. Of course I will come again as it was my favourite one out of all the hotels I’ve been to.

Good day. For the money that we paid for a hotel-hotel worthy! Good, solid repair. Everything is working. Clean toilet. There is everything you need in the kitchen. True frying pan scratched into the board. But this is also a question for tourists! Why are you spoiling hotel property !? After you still come guests !! Well, a hotel, we could already change this stuff to a new pan. Also, called the hotel, be so kind as to comply with the rules. The number of towels is not normal. Only 2 per person And the first 5 days, these were beach brown towels, then they brought white ones. Also, there is no quenched paper. The cleaning lady said that it wasn’t allowed and buy paper yourself at the hotel’s store! This also violates the norms of the hotel business! There are also no toiletries. Even elemental soap. Otherwise, everything is tolerable! Clean well, clean everywhere. The question now is different: to Trip through which we booked this hotel. In the voucher from the company indicated meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) Upon check-in at the hotel, we were denied meals! They stated that they do not have free food. And the fact that we were deceived by the company in which we paid for the tour! As a result, no one fed us! Voucher from the company. Food trip and hotel voucher without food in my arms. I will file complaints with the relevant authorities!

We just finished a four night stay at Mitsis Laguna and can’t wait to go back. We stayed in the Royal Suite which was a total splurge and completely wonderful. But the property as a whole is very well designed so every room is convenient to everything. The walkout pool rooms and ocean view rooms all looked fantastic as well. Even though we arrived with no dinner reservations and the resort was fully booked, the concierge got us reservations for exactly what we wanted. Our favorite was the Cretan restaurant — the food was amazing and our service (Thursday June 15 was exceptional!!!). The main restaurant (buffet) was very good as well and even in peak hours we never waited more than a couple minutes to be seated. Incredible! We also loved that there is late night buffet food served until 4am along with a late night bar — we were never up quite that late but we did arrive at midnight hour first night and were thrilled to be able to eat hot food! The central pool is heated and an absolute delight to swim in. Seats fill up but we were still always able to snag one whenever turned up. The beach is just at the edge of the property and gorgeous — if a bit choppy for actual swimming! The food cart by the beach though was fantastic, and we hit it every day. We also loved the ice cream shop by the pool. You can rent a car at a desk in the hotel for a day or more easily — was about 60 euros and we drove the 30 minutes to visit the Palace of Knossos, admiring the coastal views along the way. Our daughter also truly loved the magic show (kudos to Rocco the magician!) and the really great arcade. This is a fantastic resort. Even though it’s a large property, you are always just steps away from whatever you need and never feel like you’re part of a crowd. The service from literally everyone is so wonderful. I am writing this from the airport and we are sitting here planning our next Mitsis vacation. Highly recommend.

4 adults currently in the middle of our stay here...we leave on the 10th June. The first night and day we were so happy to have booked this (a special treat for my 40th birthday and belated honeymoon). Reception and check in was smooth, we were shown our rooms (the other couple got fruit and wine...we had only soft drinks in our room which was a little hiccup.) Day 1 despite not being able to get a sunbed at any pool or on the beach we had the most delightful food at Candia restaurant in the evening on my birthday. We did find our first day hard...everything is a qr scan...all menus, directories, map etc...you do have to figure everything out for yourself...and the rest of the time you get revered to concierge. there's also no info on hotel entertainment either...it makes things hard to plan. Day 2 On check in we were told we could book the other 2 restaurants for our dinners..by day 2 EVERY RESTAURANT is fully booked. The main restaurant is lovely, the food is delicious but it's not the same as a restaurant experience where you can dress up for dinner and enjoy the time with loved ones. The eception just told us that the hotel is very busy and that was that...there was a real lack of empathy. It feels like the main directive is to make it as hard as possible for guests to fully take advantage of what is advertised on the website. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a 2 restaurants policy per room. Had we known that you need to book 3 weeks in advance, we would have but even prior emails to the hotel before we arrived took a few days to be replied to. The hotel is beautiful, well maintained and the restaurant and bar staff are all wonderful but I doubt we would recommend it to others...far from relaxing, it's been quite hard work.

Have a good stay. We extended the stay of the blow. Far from all the night life of Malia but close to its authentic old Malia.
