Wow, just had a fab 5* week at Fodele Beach Resort in Crete. Family of 4 with teenage kids. The location of Fodele bay is stunning and close to Heraklion Airport. The hotel is modern, v well equipped and the resort is spacious enought to never feel overcrowded. Overall brilliant, but specifically: Room - good rooms, not the biggest (we are a tall family) , but super comfy and we had a wet room shower & a balconey. They also moved us no problem to interconnecting rooms. Hotel - excellent - gym, arcade, spa, shops, main buffet restaurant plus a seperate Greek & Italian. At least 4x bars, spaced all the way from the water park at the top to the beach below. Staff - fab - really friendly - lots of them - genuinely cared that guests had a good experience. Food - top draw buffet, loads of choice, always changed menu, something for everyone. End of season Halloween dinner buffet was a sight to behold - so much effort put in (see photo). Water Park - excellent fun, some good rides and kids area. Plus bar and extra (not crowded) pools. Beach - really good sandy beach, private area for hotel. Lots of swimming, pier jumping and eel fishing attempts. Water sports (hotel run - cost extra) also fun, can now tick parasailing from the bucket list! To get the most out of it all you need to be of 'average' activity levels. Lots of steps, the resort is carved out of a hill side. My thanks to all the staff for making it a great week. Shout out to Jet2 also, all went smoothly as usual.
