What guests think
Travellers describe The Island Hotel - Adults Only - as a calm retreat with generally clean spaces, friendly staff, and a relaxed atmosphere, set within a large, spread out complex of low-rise blocks and footpaths.
Rooms range from standard to suites with semi-private or private pools; many find them spacious and comfortable, but others note dated decor, compact or open-plan bathrooms, occasional allocation mix-ups, and unreliable Wi-Fi or AC. Facilities include a beach across a small road, ample pool areas and a spa, though guests report scarce sunbeds due to early towel reservation, unheated or cold pools, and gym or wellness features sometimes out of service. Breakfast wins consistent praise for variety and quality, while the dinner buffet is good value but sometimes average, and drinks at dinner, including water, are charged. Overall, expect a quiet, adults-only resort focused on relaxation by the sea.

Dejligt hotel som er roligt da det kun er for voksne. Venligt, hjælpsomt og smilende personale i receptionen. God morgenbuffet. Desværre svigtede AC en enkelt nat, det var ulideligt. Det står beskrevet i reglerne for hotellet at man ikke må reservere solsenge men der var ingen konsekvenser så det gjorde folk alligevel fra kl 8.

What an amazing hotel this was, booked two rooms with a sharing pool and they were amazing, I called the hotel to see if they could make sure we got rooms next to each other, they sorted that for us, what a treat to have our own pool. The breakfast was great, loads of choice. The spa was wonderful, had a salt scrub and olive oil massage, very relaxing indeed! All in all we had an amazing stay! Thank you The Island Hotel you were great!

Hotel rates itself as 5 star and it is not a superior or luxurious standard at all. We’ve booked a room with private pool for superior experience and the toilet was dirty, curtains falling off. In the gym, all threadmills and gym machines were not functional with no towel offered and we were astonished with the poor quality of the hotel for a 5 star. This should be rated a 3 star hotel at most. We’ve asked for refund of the payment and left early morning of the following day. I would suggest travellers to not take their pictures for real and level set that it is not a 5 star service nor structure. We have advised Hotels.com of the lack of alignment between the pictures in the website and in real conditions and encourage travellers seeking superior experience not to book it.

If you're looking for a quiet, restful break, The Island is perfect. The staff were all very friendly and accommodating. It felt safe, peaceful and the hotel is beautiful and kept in perfect condition. The only small critique is the gym equipment needs to be upgraded, but I wasn't upset about staying by the pool more.

Gute Speisen Qualität. Sehr nettes Personal. Gute Pool Bar! Direkt am Strand (privat für Hotel). Bei später Abreise gute Möglichkeit Gepäck zu lagern und sich noch umzuziehen. Insgesamt angenehmer Aufenthalt.

We had a great honeymoon here. The food on the property was delicious. While the breakfast buffet didn’t change during our stay the quality and quantity of the food was great. There was a litany of activities on the property each day and we did partake is some of the music events. I think this resort is a great place to stay if you want to relax and have short drives (15 minutes) to other larger towns. One negative was the hot tub and steam bath were not functioning. The sauna was working fine. We paid extra to use them after our massages but only 1/3 was working properly. We should have been alerted of this before paying. Positives: the resort showered us with treats in our room, wine, snacks etc… the store on-site is very fair priced. The pools are immaculate. Rooms are cleaned and mopped very well each day.

This property was amazing!! We stayed for 3 nights for our honeymoon and loved it. There are 3 shared pools (one quiet, one with a pool bar and one infinity pool). There is a beach right across the street. There is basketball and tennis courts, a spa and a breakfast and dinner buffet on site. There is even a little store with pretty much anything you could need. The hotel staff was great and helped us book transport to and from the ferry ports. Our room was beautiful which had a private pool for us, we highly recommend this stay!

Our stay in 303 Cool Room with Private Pool & Sea View The Good: HOUSEKEEPING services were impeccable, looked after by a lovely lady who interpreted our broken Greek Ianguage with guile. I encourage people to always tip them, a hard days work with generally a wage not commensurate with effort. THE BAD: The MAIN POOL music is club genre from the resident DJ, who clearly likes to increase the bass on the tracks, I often wondered if they were practicing sets before auditioning for a club residency in Ibiza (read the room, ALWAYS). The COOL ROOM WITH PRIVATE POOL is only private as there is a perspex partition separating the pool with the next room, the water within is “shared”. The tiles above the water line were yellow/green indicating a lack of cleaning, perhaps this is a seasonal task, but clearly needs to happen more often. Also, the 350 Euros per night does not correlate with the size of room, perhaps pricing needs to be adjusted. GYM: Overall the equipment is satisfactory but with no instruction manuals or QR codes to scan to use it safely. Also, bring your own water, none is offered or supplied. On the morning I discovered this I tried to acquire water from The Kitchen during breakfast service, but was informed that I could fill my water bottle but must consume it before I left or purchase bottled water, so I chose to leave the hotel and walk to the supermarket opposite The Island restaurant (unrelated business) rather than purchase it from The Island. OVERALL: 6.5/10

The resort is nice overall but the rooms are small and bathrooms very small. Our bathroom had mold near the ceiling. While the staff was overall nice, the manager Eva was the worst person we've met, and so was the front desk clerk Maria - no compassion for people whatsoever. We paid for a room with pool, but received one with the balcony facing a wall, and when asked for another room, their excuse was that there are full - we were there in September. Not worth the money we paid for. The manager Eva and the receptionist Maria need extensive training as how to treat people regardlesss of where their origin,

Everything about the resort was clean, classy, well maintained and felt luxurious. It is a long way from anything but the beach, although that beach is perfect and there are plenty of bars and reataurants along the coast. Getting to any sights or cities will require an expensive taxi or a car, but the hotel is so luxurious and relaxing you many not want to leave!

The hotel was large but extremely well maintained, the staff were lovely and breakfast included such an array of tasty food. Incredibly clean and I felt very safe as a solo female traveller. The pools were fantastic and I easily spent hours there! Such a treat and I would love to return some day. Thank you to all the staff!

The Island resort was to be the “piece de resistance” to our European vacation & the one accommodation that we spent a lot of money on … nearly 2 grand (aud) for 1 week, so not cheap!!!!! We booked & paid 6 months in advance, hoping and wishing that we’d get the best of the “Cool Rooms” with the most spectacular Sea View. This was not the case. I don’t know how they allocate rooms, but my room was the “runt of the litter” from a balcony & sea view point. I was bitterly disappointed ☹️ I spoke to Reception, they changed my room after much tooing and frowing. The Island is such a big resort, we were just a number really. F&B staff were always friendly & happy to assist with anything we wanted & Sarah on the front desk was super happy all the time. Breakfast was included and there was such a wonderful amount of options. We ate dinner at the restaurant a couple of nights, it’s good value at Euro 20 per head & again, plenty of options. The pools are beautiful too & having the beach across the road was great. There were a few great restaurants in the surrounding areas for lunch and dinner if you didn’t want to eat at the resort. Not great for shopping in that area of Crete. To summarize, the resort is very quiet, lots of couples & no one (other than us) appeared to be having a wow of a time haha! It’s a great resort for relaxing, swimming.

Our first trip to Greece and wanted an adults only hotel. The hotel staff were friendly and accommodating and the baggage staff member was very friendly and gave us all information we needed to know about the property. Our room was a king and very roomy. The room was clean but a little dated and could use some updates, but overall we were happy and it was a relatively quiet room with good AC. We noticed they do not supply wash cloths, so bring your own or buy one at a local market. Our booking included breakfast and we were very pleased with the wide assortment of food and beverage choices. There are several pool areas but you need to get your towel on your chair early if you want a spot, especially the pools near the ocean. There is easy access to the ocean area and a beach across the street if you wish to get beach and ocean time. The walk along the road is very safe and picturesque. There are plenty of restaurants within a short walk if you don’t want to eat in the hotel. The hotel has lunch and dinner if you choose to dine there. For dinner, they have themed buffet in the main restaurant which is good value for the price. Overall, it was a relaxing vacation for my family and the hotel took good care of us.

There is easy access to the ocean area and a beach across the street if you wish to get beach and ocean time. The walk along the road is very safe and picturesque. There are plenty of restaurants within a short walk if you don’t want to eat in the hotel. The hotel has lunch and dinner if you choose to dine there. For dinner, they have themed buffet in the main restaurant which is good value for the price. Overall, it was a relaxing vacation for my family and the hotel took good care of us.

The resort is nice overall but the rooms are small and bathrooms very small. Our bathroom had mold near the ceiling. While the staff was overall nice, the manager Eva was the worst person we've met, and so was the front desk clerk Maria - no compassion for people whatsoever. We paid for a room with pool, but received one with the balcony facing a wall, and when asked for another room, their excuse was that there are full - we were there in September. Not worth the money we paid for. The manager Eva and the receptionist Maria need extensive training as how to treat people regardlesss of where their origin,

Staff is very friendly, hotel is quiet which we liked. 2-3 floors blocks, spread out, well designed to make it calm and relaxing. Main Restaurant is great, with fantastic views facing the sea. Beach is good immediately outside hotel. Quiet area outside. Only things we didn’t like much was bathroom not having walls (yes, it was open, except toilet), the air con being positioned above bed instead of a place where you don’t feel the cold air blowing into us while sleeping and the mosquitos, which made leavibg window open impossible (mosquito nets in windows would have been great)

The room was supposed to have a sea view & we had to contact reception 3 times for a switch to the correct room. The rooms were very clean and the staff were very helpful. There's a few things that might leave me wonder where the 5th star is coming from but on the whole a nice hotel

Das nicht übergrosse Hotel abseits vom Trubel ist nur durch eine wenig befahrene kleine Strasse vom kleinen, flach abfallenden Sandstrand getrennt. Zudem hat es diverse Pools, Bars und Restaurants. Unser Zimmer hatte freie Meersicht und bequeme Betten, das Bad war aber etwas eng. Beim Buffetmenü waren die kalten Vorspeisen und die Desserts sehr gut, die warmen Speisen hingegen nur durchschnittlich. Teller werden selten abgeräumt.

We stayed here at the end of our 2 week trip to Crete. Our room had a semi-private plunge pool which was amazing. The main pools are very nice also but hard to get a seat at unless you go early morning to grab a lounger. The buffet breakfast was excellent though I wish it started earlier than 7:30am because we had to forego it our last morning due to our departure time. The room was spacious and we also had a large deck area with loungers. The beach is directly across the road and we could hear the waves from our room. We had the buffet dinner once when we arrived and then we enjoyed dinner at a couple of local tavernas within 5-10 minutes walk. Cute little area and nice resort to stay at if you are looking for this type of vacation. Not particularly Greek but again, you can leave the resort to venture out. It is also only 20 minutes to Knossos which was great!

Our first trip to Greece and wanted an adults only hotel. The hotel staff were friendly and accommodating and the baggage staff member was very friendly and gave us all information we needed to know about the property. Our room was a king and very roomy. The room was clean but a little dated and could use some updates, but overall we were happy and it was a relatively quiet room with good AC. We noticed they do not supply wash cloths, so bring your own or buy one at a local market. Our booking included breakfast and we were very pleased with the wide assortment of food and beverage choices. There are several pool areas but you need to get your towel on your chair early if you want a spot, especially the pools near the ocean. There is easy access to the ocean area and a beach across the street if you wish to get beach and ocean time. The walk along the road is very safe and picturesque. There are plenty of restaurants within a short walk if you don’t want to eat in the hotel. The hotel has lunch and dinner if you choose to dine there. For dinner, they have themed buffet in the main restaurant which is good value for the price. Overall, it was a relaxing vacation for my family and the hotel took good care of us.

What an amazing hotel this was, booked two rooms with a sharing pool and they were amazing, I called the hotel to see if they could make sure we got rooms next to each other, they sorted that for us, what a treat to have our own pool. The breakfast was great, loads of choice. The spa was wonderful, had a salt scrub and olive oil massage, very relaxing indeed! All in all we had an amazing stay! Thank you The Island Hotel you were great!

The wifi is very poor all over the resort. The drinks at dinner are paid only (not even free tap water), when you ask something the first answer is 'No'. The pools are not clean. The quality of the food is very low and not lined in 5 star hotels standards. All hotels have pools, all hotel have nice rooms. This hotel dont let you feel welcomed and value for money.

This is an excellent location for a tranquil break. Good food choices with lots of flavour. There was always space around the pools and the beach was easy to access. It was shallow enough to snorkel and spotted a few fish. I would choose this hotel again when I visited Crete. The bus stop was quite a walk away but the buses are easy to use.

Amazing hotel, cannot emphasize this enough. Amazing pools, amazing breakfast, and the beach is literally right by the hotel, just cross the road and you’re there. There are restaurants by the hotel as well. Would recommend renting a car, a couple cities nearby, 15-60 minutes away by car. Didn’t understand if there was parking by the hotel at first, but you have to park in the street by the beach, plenty wide road for that, or in a gravel parking lot nearby.

Everything about the resort was clean, classy, well maintained and felt luxurious. It is a long way from anything but the beach, although that beach is perfect and there are plenty of bars and reataurants along the coast. Getting to any sights or cities will require an expensive taxi or a car, but the hotel is so luxurious and relaxing you many not want to leave!

Makkelijk parkeren rond het hotel, supermarktje op 100m, fine dining restaurant op dezelfde afstand. Goede zwembaden, eenvoudig maar ruim zandstrand met mooie golven en heerlijk uitzicht op Dia island. Het ontbijt is uiterst efficiënt georganiseerd, je hebt behoorlijk wat keuze maar het blijft natuurlijk wel grootkeukenbuffet. Zeer goede waarde voor het geld gekregen!

This hotel was all that we expected, and more. The Staff were all very friendly and helpful. We booked bed and breakfast, and were so glad because there is a wonderful selection of great tavernas and restaurants all within 5 minutes walk. The breakfast choices were manyfold and plentiful, we thoroughly enjoyed breakfast in the sunshine, overlooking the sea. We booked a suite with its own pool, and that was simply sublime. We were able to relax on our own double sunbed in our own pool, with complete privacy. The hotel beach is just 2 minutes walk away, well equipped and the sandy beach gives a shallow and easy walk into the sea. We will definitely be visiting this hotel again.

The hotel was large but extremely well maintained, the staff were lovely and breakfast included such an array of tasty food. Incredibly clean and I felt very safe as a solo female traveller. The pools were fantastic and I easily spent hours there! Such a treat and I would love to return some day. Thank you to all the staff!

Gute Auswahl mit den drei Pools! Liegen oft früh schon belegt mit Handtüchern. Sun beds aber bis Mittag verfügbar. Nachmittags oft alles belegt. Sehr saubere Zimmer. Gutes Frühstück. Gute Auswahl. Gute Speisen Qualität. Sehr nettes Personal. Gute Pool Bar! Direkt am Strand (privat für Hotel). Bei später Abreise gute Möglichkeit Gepäck zu lagern und sich noch umzuziehen. Insgesamt angenehmer Aufenthalt.

Das nicht übergrosse Hotel abseits vom Trubel ist nur durch eine wenig befahrene kleine Strasse vom kleinen, flach abfallenden Sandstrand getrennt. Zudem hat es diverse Pools, Bars und Restaurants. Unser Zimmer hatte freie Meersicht und bequeme Betten, das Bad war aber etwas eng. Beim Buffetmenü waren die kalten Vorspeisen und die Desserts sehr gut, die warmen Speisen hingegen nur durchschnittlich. Teller werden selten abgeräumt.

The room was supposed to have a sea view & we had to contact reception 3 times for a switch to the correct room. The rooms were very clean and the staff were very helpful. There's a few things that might leave me wonder where the 5th star is coming from but on the whole a nice hotel
