The best stay in Crete. We were in four different hotels while in Crete and Duo Suites was the best. The service was excellent. Chrysa was especially attentive and friendly. Everyone in this hotel made us feel as VIP guests. The food was delicious and cocktails were spectacular. Room service was timely and the best. Thank you and we will see you again.

- from the moment you arrive, until the moment you leave, the staff make you feel like a VIP and the luxurious, tastefully decorated surroundings contribute to that feeling; - you are always greeted with a smile, which prompted the question: who smiles all the time without faking it? I certainly couldn't do it on a daily basis for a few months in a row; the fact is that Cretans seem to have a hospitality sense far above your average human and in many instances I could feel that their smiles and positive energy came from the heart and not from the job description; shoutout to LITSA, SOULA, CONSTANTINA and VASILIKI who made us feel at home and cared for; - restaurant/staff managers were always there, working with the team, lending them a hand and making sure the service stays high quality, which speaks volumes in terms of leadership standards; shoutout to ALEX, manager of the lunch bar, and his colleague, the manager of the restaurant, for all the pleasant interactions and for all their hard work; - three impeccable professionals handling the kid's club: MENY, MARIA and ELIZABETH kept the kids entertained the whole day long and even took them to lunch (which is included for the kids); - great functional and TRX training circuits lead by KARINA; - the room we had (located in the main building with private garden) was large, superbly furnished and provided quick access through its garden directly to the pool area, but also to the private beach (sunbeds and towels included); - impeccable room cleaning service, no compromises whatsoever; - high quality evening entertainment: tenors, violin, quality live music, not loud, but gentle and cultivated, up until 22 P.M., after which - silence, which was greatly appreciated, as it allowed everyone to rest; - rich and delicious breakfast and dinner buffets with tasty egg specials every morning; - great salt water pool; - you could always find unoccupied sunbeds at the beach and pool irrespective of the time of day;

Everything. Perfect 5* The Ammnos Suite was an excellent choice for our stay. The whole place was spotless and very well maintained. There is an elevator that takes you comfortably to the higher floors, and the pool was cleaned daily by the staff. Breakfast was delicious, with a wide variety to choose from. The location is perfect – just a few steps from the beach, where sunbeds are available with drinks if you stay at the suite. The city center is also within easy reach, about a 15-minute walk, and the inner city offers plenty of fantastic restaurants, from fancy options to cozy, homemade-style places. Our stay was peaceful and relaxing. The room was very spacious, beautifully designed, and the interior was modern and comfortable. Overall, this is definitely a five-star place – highly recommended!

Everything! Nice pool, on the beach and great staff!

The hotel itself is very clean and modern, the family room contains two single rooms with two bathrooms which are also very nice and big enough for a 4 personnes family. The garden, and the pool are also clean and nice, the personnel are very very kind, The food is so delicious and various.

Clean, friendly staff, nice room

Lovely staff and so competent. We got what we booked and more. They put the “all inclusive” meaning to a different level as it was more than expected. Good food and great service, dinner by the sea in a lovely and so attentive atmosphere. Waiters at the activity pool bar and at the Lobsteria great service. Spa treatments soo good. My husband also booked the new chiropractor treatment and didn’t regret, then we had other 3 treatments with a professional masseur that we definitely recommend. Just 10 mins by car from Rethymno.

A lot of activities, restaurants, food variety, everything you need. Service was fast, well prepared staff, always willing to help. Facilities for kids are amazing!
