The shower water pressure could have been a bit better, although it was perfectly adequate, just trying to find something really.

Really nice set up, with the rooms arranged around the pool area. The rooms at the back had a view across the sea. Large bedroom with plenty of storage, large bathroom well appointed and a kitchen and seating area with a patio section outside. The staff were amazing and well attentive. Especially the cleaning staff who would do everything they could to make you comfortable.

Only negative was we requested a double bed and we got a twin pushed together. The bedframe was quite large so there was a decent sized gap between the two beds which isn't great for a couple who want to cuddle in the night!

This is our second time here and very much enjoyed our stay again. The family are wonderful, so accommodating. We arrived very early and they worked hard to get our room ready well ahead of the usual check in time. The location is perfect, providing a much needed calm atmosphere. They have also added a pool bar since our last visit which has a good choice of drinks and food. The pool is lovely and clean, and a decent size. Will always stay here when visiting this side of Crete.

It's full of crickets if you're not afraid of them it's very nice to stay there

Beautiful view, nice pool area, quiet and peaceful. 30 minutes away from old town.

Elenia and Mary were the perfect hosts to me and my family. So kind, polite, friendly and professional. The hotel location, facilities, ocean views and swimming pool were all amazing.

The apartment has an open-plan layout with no separation between the bedroom and living area, which can be inconvenient for families. Several items, particularly in the bathroom, were in need of maintenance. The kitchen was very small and poorly equipped, although I didn’t actually use it during my stay.

The hotel is in a great location, within walking distance of excellent restaurants and the archaeological site of Aptera (a few kilometres away). The swimming pool was excellent, and the staff were both friendly and professional. The apartment was clean and comfortable enough for a short stay.

My girls were so excited about the pool and location we could have stayed for a week! Rooms are a bit outdated (mattresses are hard) but absolutely massive with plenty of space along with a fully equipped kitchen. Phenomenal value ❤️ The pool bar is another treat with delicious food prepared to order. They look after each guest like family!

Wish we had stayed for longer. Shower was a little small for a 6ft 2" man!!

Great location for walking into the town. Lots of historical sites nearby. Breakfast was good.

The Areti was a very nice place to stay. It’s out in the country (nice and quiet) 24 minutes from downtown Chania. The rooms have views over looking the water. The room was nice and spacious and clean. The staff was excellent, friendly and helpful. There are a couple of restaurants about 5 minutes away that are pretty good. You will pass them on the way up to the hotel. Highly recommend for your stay in the Chania area

Lovely hotel, situated in a quiet village, surrounded by mountains and sea. Lovely swimming pool, very clean - with bar serving snacks and drinks. Few local tavernas close by serving traditional greek food.

The location and the views from the hotel were amazing. Calm and quiet place on a hill (renting a car to easily get there is necessary). The pool area was never crowded. Hotel staff was really friendly. There was a pool bar where you could order drinks and snacks. There were also couple of nice tavernas in the village nearby. Really relaxing atmosphere!

The bathroom was a bit dated, but apart from this everything was really pleasant.

The hotel is very nicely situated overlooking the bay and the mountains and is very quiet. We particularly liked the pool and the amazing breakfast that showcased local foods. The staff was very accommodating and very friendly. The owner has planted rare fruit trees and flowers from Crete around the hotel which we really enjoyed.

Even the sea seems close, the aparthotel is on the top of the hill, vehicles has to be used to any purpose....

The pool was the very big advantage of the appartment (big for 5-6 family, good for small kids and one side with 3m depth). The pool was open even on the evenig with nice lighting. The appartment was new (less than 10 years old). Separation was good from other apartments. Everthig was clean and maintained. Staff were helpful.

Very nice family run hotel. Beautiful pool, great view over the bay from high up on the hillside. The owners are very friendly and helpful. Felt very relaxed here.

The fridge was in a poor state of repair - although functional. The bed was a little too firm - although I accept this is down to personal preference. The water pressure on the bathroom taps was poor although it was fine in the shower.

Spacious room, balcony with lovely view. Very friendly staff. Fantastic pool with poolside cafe/bar. The room was cleaned and beds made every day - which was more than expected.
