Featuring a magnificent outdoor pool and a restaurant, the 5-star NEMA Design Hotel & Spa - Adults Only offers accommodation in Analipsi of Hersonissos. The resort features a private sandy beach. Free WiFi is available in all areas. Everything about this hotel is top level. The staff goes above and beyond to make your stay exceptional. The facilities are top notch, the room was very well furbished, comfortable and cozy. The restaurant is amazing and I definitely recommend dining there. The staff was so kind to offer us 2 cakes free of charge to celebrate our birthdays. This hotel is not just a facility, it's an experience.

Just 50 metres from the beach and 1 km from Rethymno Town, Archipelagos Hotel is set on a hillside with panoramic views over the Cretan Sea and the Venetian Castle. Facilities include an outdoor communal pool and private pools, a pool bar and free WiFi. We stayed at this hotel during our holiday in Crete. We usually choose other accommodations (apartments) but this hotel amazed us! As soon as we arrived, Stelios accompanied us to our room: clean, minimal but with everything we needed and with a breathtaking view of the sea. We slept with the sound of the waves. Fantastic! As a perfect host, Stelios gave us advice on what to visit and where to eat: advice we followed while being pleasantly impressed! The hotel has a very nice pool and a well-stocked breakfast. The location is strategic for reaching the best beaches. Crete is a magical island. We absolutely recommend this hotel! Thanks.

Aphrodite Beach Hotel is located on the sandy beach of Mavros Molos in Kissamos. It features a swimming pool, umbrellas and sunbeds on the beach and offers free WiFi throughout.

Each with a furnished balcony with sea, garden or mountain views, the spacious units at Aphrodite Beach include air conditioning, a satellite TV, hairdryer, toiletries and safe. Everything was wonderful. The location right on a quiet little beach, the gorgeous pool area, the rooms and facilities were perfect and the staff very friendly, welcoming and efficient. The bedroom was spacious and well appointed with a very comfortable bed and bathroom, and an outside patio surrounded by lush garden- delightful. Breakfast was a delicious buffet overlooking the pool and beach and varied each day. There was ample on street parking in front of and near the hotel. It is conveniently located near enough to Kissamos for supermarkets etc as well as neighbouring beaches such as Falasarna and Balos. We will be back next time we are in Kissamos.
