Creta Maris Beach Resort

Vi hadde et helt fantastisk opphold på Creta Maris Resort og gleder oss allerede til å komme tilbake! Vi var der for noen år siden med vår smårolling, og det er fortsatt en av våre beste familieferier. Alt var perfekt fra start til slutt. Personalet var utrolig vennlig, imøtekommende og alltid villige til å hjelpe, noe som fikk oss til å føle oss som hjemme gjennom hele oppholdet. Maten var utmerket, med så stort utvalg at det alltid var noe for enhver smak, også for de minste. Beliggenheten er fantastisk, med alt du trenger i nærheten og enkel tilgang til stranden og området rundt. Et av de største høydepunktene for familien vår var vannparken – den var helt fantastisk og holdt småbarnet vårt underholdt i timevis. Det var virkelig det som gjorde at dette feriestedet skilte seg ut fra andre vi har besøkt. Vi har skapt så mange fantastiske familieminner her, og vi planlegger allerede å komme tilbake. Vi vil på det varmeste anbefale Creta Maris Resort til alle som er ute etter en avslappende, familievennlig ferie med utmerkede fasiliteter.

Vi hadde en fantastisk opplevelse på Creta Maris! Det er virkelig et 5-stjerners feriested – i motsetning til Minos Imperial. Vi forlot Minos og kom hit for å finne en perle på Kreta. Her var det alt og mer til: deilig og variert mat, restauranter, barer, snacks osv. Den eneste ulempen var at det ikke var romservice, og at middagen var ferdig kl. 21.30, da alle middagsrestaurantene stengte. De hadde riktignok en senmiddag som var åpen til midnatt, men der var det bare et fåtall retter å velge mellom. I tillegg må man bestille middag en dag i forveien, og hvis man ikke gjør det, kan man bare benytte seg av bufféene. Dessverre var to av de beste restaurantene med havutsikt alltid fullbooket, så vi fikk ikke sjansen til å spise der mens vi var der i fire netter. Bufféene hadde imidlertid virkelig deilig mat – ikke de vanlige standardbufféene, men luksuriøs, autentisk gresk mat, pluss retter for kresne barn som pizza, burgere og pommes frites. Rommene var veldig rene, men ikke så store. Familierom har vanligvis et soverom eller i det minste en stue med sofa, men dette var et studio hvor de bare hadde satt inn en seng og en barneseng og kalt det et familierom. Hotelldirektøren, Mr. Manolo, hjalp oss med å skaffe et rom da de var fullbooket, og med sen utsjekking – utmerket kundeservice, tusen takk til ham. Stranden var nydelig, med svake bølger og veldig trygg for barn; utallige bassenger. For ikke å glemme det spennende badelandet rett ved rommet vårt! Spillhall (dyrt), biljardbord, bordtennis – vi kjedet oss aldri. Vil absolutt anbefale Creta Maris til alle som besøker Hellas på grunn av alt det hadde å tilby, og beliggenheten som ligger bare 30 minutter fra flyplassen/fergehavnen, som vi tok til Santorini. Her får du både byliv og strandliv! Fin gresk livemusikk noen kvelder også.

Et utmerket feriested. Alle ansatte var vennlige, imøtekommende og hjelpsomme. En spesiell takk til Kiki, som tålmodig lærte oss grunnleggende gresk i to leksjoner ved bassenget. Anlegget er stort, med mange bassenger, barer, restauranter og massevis av aktiviteter. Takket være vannparken på stedet trengte vi ikke å dra til den store vannparken 15 km lenger oppe i veien, selv med våre eldre barn. Ved ankomst ble rommene våre oppgradert til området for voksne, som gir tilgang til noen flere basseng- og barområder. Den største fordelen med dette var en egen avdeling i hovedbuffetrestauranten, hvor det alltid var plass, selv når hovedområdet var fullt i rushtiden. Dette er verdt å betale for. Maten var utmerket, og to av restauranthøydepunktene var Pithos (økologiske lokale råvarer) og Mademi (kjøttfest med idyllisk beliggenhet med havutsikt). Bestillingsappen var litt kronglete i begynnelsen, men så snart vi hadde funnet ut nøyaktig hvilket bestillingsnavn vi skulle bruke for reisefølget vårt – skrevet nøyaktig uten mellomrom – ble det enklere. Vi anbefaler å ta hotellomvisningen; det var hyggelig å høre om eierne og grunnleggerne av anlegget, samt stedets historie. Det er ikke billig, men man får det man betaler for. Sterkt anbefalt. Tusen takk til alle ansatte for den varme velkomsten under oppholdet vårt, og vi håper å se dere igjen.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Creta Maris Resort – Honest Review After 10 Days Before booking Creta Maris Resort, I spent months comparing hotels and reading reviews, so during our stay I paid attention to all the details I wanted to know beforehand. We booked the most basic Standard Double Room as part of a package holiday. Although it hadn't been renovated yet, it was clean, comfortable and exceeded our expectations. We were pleasantly surprised with a partial sea view above Enomy Restaurant. The air conditioning worked perfectly, housekeeping was excellent, and the bathroom was well equipped with quality toiletries, bathrobes, toothbrushes and even disposable razors. The only downside was the refrigerator, which was surprisingly noisy at night. The sea is one of the hotel's biggest strengths. Crystal-clear water, almost no seaweed and a very gentle entrance make it ideal for families with children. During our 10-day stay we had waves on most days, but they were never dangerous and actually made swimming more enjoyable. The only real disappointment on the beach was the lack of warning signs for the large underwater rocks on the right side near the Aperol Spritz Bar. I hit one while diving on our first morning. A few warning signs could easily prevent accidents. The second issue is the sunbeds. Guests start reserving them very early, often using extra towels to occupy more loungers than they actually need. By 9 AM it was sometimes already difficult to find a free sunbed in the best area. Enomy Restaurant was one of the highlights of our holiday. The quality of the ingredients was outstanding. Instead of offering hundreds of dishes, the restaurant focuses on freshness and taste. As someone who usually prefers meat, I was genuinely impressed by the traditional Greek vegetable dishes with eggplant, zucchini, tomatoes and local cheeses. Desserts were excellent, queues were minimal, the restaurant was always spotless and the staff were incredibly friendly and professional. The à la carte restaurants were pleasant, mainly because of the atmosphere, table service and sea views, but honestly we didn't feel the food was better than in Enomy. If your priority is great food, the main restaurant already delivers everything you need. Reservations through the Creta Maris app were quick and convenient. The bars offered a good selection of drinks. The only cocktail that disappointed us was the Aperol Spritz, which tasted too diluted every time we ordered it. Cocktails in the other bars were perfectly enjoyable. The aquapark is compact, with around 6–7 slides. Our 10-year-old daughter loved it, but older teenagers may find it too small after a while. The entire resort is beautiful, designed like a traditional Cretan village with lush gardens, picturesque streets and countless photo opportunities. Everything is clean, well maintained and full of character. The pools are plentiful, always clean and suitable for all ages. The entertainment is present but never intrusive, which we really appreciated. The official app is excellent for restaurant reservations and daily activities. The location is another advantage. Hersonissos, the marina, restaurants and shops are only about a 10-minute walk away. Finally, I want to highlight something that impressed us the most. Creta Maris successfully combines a family resort with a peaceful adult-friendly atmosphere. Families have everything they need, while adults looking for a quieter holiday will also feel very comfortable. Finding this balance is not easy, but this hotel does it remarkably well. Would we come back? Absolutely. The hotel still has room for improvement—better control of sunbed reservations, warning signs for the rocks, quieter refrigerators in older rooms and a better Aperol Spritz—but these issues never outweighed the positives. Final rating: 9/10. An excellent family resort with outstanding food, wonderful staff, beautiful surroundings and a genuinely relaxing atmosphere. It was one of our favourite holidays, and I would happily recommend Creta Maris Resort.
