    The lobby and the main saloon need to be updated. The furniture and even the smell feels dated.

    There nothing not to love about this place.

    Various spacious room with excellent view. Excellent facilities no need to leave the resort other than to explore. Small shop within the resort for all essentials and not overpriced like you would expect in a resort. Great daily breakfast, themed nights with entertainment, nothing another question. Extremely family friendly. The service was I’m above and beyond. I’m here come here, Jonah Noah go mommy go to mummy

    Great place to unwind with plenty of options to explore Chania.

    The early morning sunbed towel reservations, particularly ones who take 4 or more with people who turn up to use them 2 hours later. It's a problem at most resorts with sunbeds.

    Great place to base yourself around Chania, away for the hustle of town but a great opportunity to relax and unwind. The pool overlooks the beach, the sunbeds are limited for the size of the resort and many people reserve them with towels contrary to the signs everywhere saying they will be removed, but we managed to get sunbeds each day we wanted to be by the pool. There are plenty of dining options in close walking distance to the hotel if you don't wish to eat at the hotel. Breakfast choices are plentiful, recommend this place for a longer stay where you may wish to relax as well as explore Chania and the surrounds.

    The toilet area in our room was very small, we are both tall with long legs so sitting on the toilet with our knee's agianst the glass partition was not ideal or pleasant. The shower door had a loud creek in it that sounded like the glass door was cracking every time you opened it, very annoying.

    The pool is excellent but the tiling is in need of repair or upgrade. breakfast selection was great but the coffee was not good. overall the resort property was very nice and the staff were friendly and helpful.

    The basic rooms are a bit small and had no bath. But as you aren’t in the rooms much anyway and it’s Crete and very hot. You most liked would not want a bath.

    Location is right next to an amazing beach. There was a surf shop right on the beach too. The infinity pool looks out over the ocean and the open plan restaurant allows you to watch the sunset. All the staff are very friendly and get to know you during your stay. I would definitely come back here. We had breakfast lunch and dinner here and during our 5 day stay, we never had the same meal twice, all the food was perfect.

    Nothing to dislike.

    Beautiful, clean hotel with friendly, helpful staff. The pool area was really lovely with plenty of comfortable sunbeds available. The breakfast was very nice with a good choice each morning which could be enjoyed either indoors or outdoors with a lovely view of the pool and sea across the road. We were B&B only but we did eat in the hotel one of the evenings and the food was delicious, probably one of our favourite meals of the holiday. We also ate lunch by the pool and that was equally nice. The cocktails were very good too! The room we had was perfect for a couple but a little tight for us (couple and 17 year old). Our 17 year old was sleeping on a sofa bed that was ok but more suited to a smaller child. The room itself was very clean with everything we needed including a little kitchenette area. It was cleaned daily and fresh towels every day. We had a late flight the day we checked out but the hotel was very accommodating with a luggage room to store our bags and fresh towels provided for us to shower in the courtesy room. There is a mini market on site that has everything you might need and very competitively priced too. There isn’t a lot to see or do in the immediate vicinity of the hotel however there is a bus stop right outside the front of the hotel that takes you to Chania old town where there are an abundance of shops and restaurants. The bus can be extremely busy, especially early evening and they pack it as much as they can so be aware of this as it made for a couple of unpleasant journeys. We found the slightly later bus a better option. The journey costs just €2 per person. We would highly recommend this hotel and hope to return again one day.

    The beach seems less interesting also combined with busy road between hotel and beach. We got room in new “luxury” building. Room was enormous however the extra space (kinda living room) and big terrace where not really needed and as such were less cosy. Instead I would have preferred better view m. Not bad but we felt orientation of all rooms could have been thought over in a better way. We looked onto and old grafitti spoiled building and the view of the sea was more like side view. Summarised pretty good hotel but no 5 star experience. I would estimate average 4 star hotel…

    Excellent breakfast and easy location to quickly get under way to various touristic hotspots (Balos, Chania, etc.). Als main reason why we chose the hotel. Didn’t actually spent too much time in the hotel itself so cannot comment on the facilities. To me it seems the pool area is nice with good views.

    It's quite a busy road to cross from the hotel to the beach. The bus to Chania didn't seem to run from the bus stop outside the hotel during our low season stay but a bus did operate from 1km along the road towards Chania.

    The room was spacious with a large balcony and good views. The staff were friendly and helpful. The buffet breakfast was ample with a large range of hot and cold dishes. The outdoor pool was lovely and not busy during our November stay.

    Very quiet, comfortable and spacious sea view suite on the 3rd floor with excellent sea view terrace balcony. Excellent breakfast catering for all European tastes. Bus stop outside Hotel from Stalos to Chania (2Euros), with a supermarket close by. Staff were very helpful and courteous. Airport shuttle bus available to Chania Bus station (3Euros) as well as Herkalion and Rethymno (e-ktel.com). Recommend Kri Kri Taverna in Stalos and Steki restaurant in Chania old town. Beach opposite the hotel. Our second visit to Cretan Dream Resort and would certainly recommend this hotel for future vacation.

    Stayed 5 nights in a Sea View suite which was spacious, clean (thorough daily cleaning) and well equipped. Nice balcony with a view of the Stalos sea. Very comfortable King size bed. Excellent breakfast with a wide variety of options. Nice infinity swimming pool. Friendly and helpful staff. We greatly enjoyed one dinner at the resort with delicious food, Greek music and dancing. Overall, highly recommended as a base for exploring western Crete.
