Gouves its a village, perhaps not as glamorous as Chania side of Crete but I liked it. Is a bit unpolished, I would say, not with that feeling of drowning under the - all included large hotel complexes and the tourist vulgo that comes with it. Its a more apartments district with greeks coming on vacations too. Plenty of taverns with prices ranging between; main courses 7-14€, drinks 5€ and cocktails 7€, breakfast 5-8€. It also has several Super markets, two of them larger with everything you need. All the above its at walking distance. 10 min with the car or moped from Gouves up inte mountains, you come to smaller villages like Hersonissos with fantastik tavernas and beautiful views.

A charming village, about 15 minutes from Heraqlion by bus (no. 2 from the airport).
Do NOT miss the Asteria taverna next to Lavris hotel: every Sunday and Tuesday a live performance of traditional Greek and Cretan music, with the beautiful Anna teaching Greek dances. It's not a tourist taveran (although there are tourists there of course) but aimed mainly for the locals. We will remember our two visits there as one of our unique experiences in Crete, and no doubt the most enjoable of them.

The day I was in Gouves the beaches were basically nonexistent due to the high tie and was very very windy. Walking along the sea was nice but given the nice beaches the island has to offer I'd rather go somewhere else or at least not stay there for long
Free parking!
Breakfast and dinner buffets were awesome!
Friendly staff (including the animation team)
Animation shows variety is great!
Kids playground conveniently located among the different pools
Many pools to enjoy from
Supermarket right next to the hotel
Beach is just some steps away from hotel, small (like a bay) but enough to enjoy the sea!
Courtesy room
Good amount of toilette in the ground floor
Amenities like ping pong table, pool table, TV screen, minigolf, etc
We had a perfect stay. The food was good and there was a big variety For the price paid. they Always offered different type of Salads and nice cooked vegetables which was important For us. The staff was super friendly. We really felt really good. You can easily reach the place by Bus from Heraklion. Pool was very Clean and nice beach from Walking distance. Family friendly Hotel.
The staff were attentive, friendly and were helpful when asking for places to go and activities to do. The food was great but some foods were repetitive but they were still good, the alcoholic drinks were mixed well and some poured heavy handed- definitely no complaints about that! The hotel was always kept clean and everything was replenished.
We are impressed by the holiday accommodation, great hosts, always interested in your stay, such centers are less and less on the tourist map of the world, and we have already seen a lot. A clean swimming pool, clean rooms and, most importantly, a great atmosphere to relax. Greetings to the whole family and thank you for a great holiday 💕
Martin and Zuzana are fantastic hosts. The place is very big and nice. The kitchen and also the entire place is very well equipped - we had coffee capsules, water in the fridge, and even detergent for the washing machine. Got very good recommendations from Martin and would definitely consider booking again if visiting eastern Crete.
Great hotel. Great staff and owner and Mrs. Irena. Many thanks to Mrs. Irena and the owner for this wonderful time. Everything was wonderful. The location was great by the sea. Every day everything was clean, the rooms were cleaned, towels changed. We want to return to Crete to Gouves and to this hotel.
Pool and looks of the place were great and staff was very friendly and helpful. Snacks at the pool were great (although greasy) and drinks were amazing. We did enjoy our stay and especially pool area is very nice. I did some many things, but it is a great hotel for chill holiday without children.
Great location directly in front of the sea! The property is quite spacious and new. The location and the amenities are very good. It was our first time to stay not in a hotel, but a privat Villa, and notwithstanding the initial problems we liked it very much.
Sensus was great and the rooms were modern in design.
Staff at reception and restaurants were friendly, very accommodating.
Hotel manager was very kind, as we arrived very early from Athens she made an exception to allows us to check in early.
The breakfast was acceptable but the same variety every day. The stuff were very friendly and polite. The room was cleaned very well, towels were changed after 2 days. Air conditioning worked well. The atmosphere in the hotel is very pleasant.
The hotel is very clean with large rooms, a pool and a good buffet breakfast. The owner and staff were so kind and helpful. Beaches, bars and restaurants are a short stroll away. And tour buses pick up just up the road.
Gazebo on the beach and near the pool were quite comfortable and free.
Rooms with a pool are quite cool, though note that it’s shared with 2 other rooms.
Hotel design is good.
Private beach.
First of all would like to mention that the hotel workers were very professional, especially the front office manager. The room and hotel overall was very clean.
