Castello Boutique Resort & Spa

We honestly had the best holiday ever here. The hotel is huge and beautifully designed, it feels super luxurious but still warm and welcoming. We even got an unexpected upgrade to a room with a private pool, which honestly made the entire trip for us. The room itself was spacious, and the terrace with the pool was just perfect to soak up the sun all day. There’s also an indoor pool and a gym you can reserve for yourself, which was such a nice touch, no crowds, just peace and quiet whenever you want. Also they host a show every day at one of the three hotels. We attended the fire&light show and the South African band, which were both incredible. But honestly, the staff was my absolute favorite part of the whole stay. Everyone was so kind and genuinely made us feel at home. We arrived very late around 10-11pm and they expected us with something to eat and drinks on the house. By day two, they already knew our coffee order and just brought it to us at breakfast without us even asking. They really took the time to get to know us, we had so many lovely and personal conversations. I’m truly gonna miss them and we already can’t wait to come back next year!

From arrival at the hotel right through to departure, everything was excellent. We spent a week at the hotel and spa which was always a clean and pleasant place to return to after a day exploring the island of Crete. Staff were excellent particularly Mariana whose eye for detail was great and the food service staff ( who recalled what our preference was for breakfast ). The hotel entertainment was a bonus , run by a very enthusiastic gentleman with a good music playing and willingness to play requests which allows those who wish to dance a good experience. The hotel grounds and pool are well maintained and very tidy with views of the church and mountains beyond. Comfortable room with good bed and plenty of space made the stay great. Top marks

Such a beautiful hotel with nice, clean rooms. Very tasty food and cocktails. The highlight for me was the entertainment, and the best was Andreas – big applause! I recommend this hotel to everyone. I will be back soon.

The hotel had not long opened for the season when we arrived. A few small issues but these were quickly resolved by the wonderful, friendly staff. Location & pool fantastic. The gym could do with an upgrade but that's all. Loved our stay, will be going back.

Beautiful hotel next to the beach. Everyone in the hotel is very kind and happy to provide you with all you need for a good holiday. One suggestion: if available ask for a room with a view of the church and the pool. The view from other sides is not so nice.
