The staff is outstanding - they even reached out to the Municipal Swimming Center to check conditions to go for a training there. This extra effort impressed us and we decided to go back to the hotel early next year. we appreciated the wonderful breakfast and that the unheated hotel pool was still open and clean in December.

DIMITRIS
From
Greece
My stay at Maison Meltem was nothing short of exceptional — a perfect blend of elegance, comfort, and outstanding service. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with a level of hospitality that felt both discreet and genuinely warm, setting the tone for a truly luxurious experience. The room was impeccably designed, combining refined aesthetics with absolute comfort. Every detail — from the quality of the linens to the thoughtful amenities — reflected a commitment to excellence. It was a serene, beautifully curated space that offered complete relaxation. The property itself exudes sophistication, with an atmosphere that is both intimate and upscale. Breakfast was exquisite: fresh, beautifully presented, and prepared with exceptional attention to detail. It felt more like a private, gourmet experience than a standard hotel offering. What truly elevates Maison Meltem is the personalized service. Giannis and Olivier go above and beyond with effortless grace, making every moment feel special. Their professionalism, kindness, and eye for detail transformed my stay into something genuinely memorable. Maison Meltem is a rare gem — luxurious, serene, and flawlessly managed. I would return without hesitation and highly recommend it to anyone seeking an elevated and unforgettable stay.

This was by far the best hotel experience that I've ever had! Already at the welcoming they were so kind to us and gave us Prosecco. The staff was extremely helpful with carrying the luggage and providing us with information about the Restaurants/Shops around the Hotel. The beds were very comfortable and it was an elegant room. The beach bar, the pools, everything was amazing and also very clean. The absolute Highlight was the Restaurant staff. Me and my mom have several allergies and the staff went trough the whole buffet every morning and evening with us to make sure nothing is contaminated. They also cooked special gluten free delicious food for me. A big thank you to the Restaurant for being so kind and warm-hearted!!! I will never forget this vacation and would love to come back again!

We spent our honeymoon at Abaton and we are very satisfied💫 The room was spotless and cleaned twice a day. The view of the sea was breathtaking, and the whole resort had a calming white and blue design. The pool area and the Buddha Beach Bar were both fantastic spots to enjoy the sun and have a drink. The hotel restaurants are excellent, although quite expensive. Everything was truly perfect, including the breakfast and the friendly staff. What stood out the most was how welcomed and valued we felt as guests. We're glad we chose Abaton.

The beach is beautiful, sandy and very long, perfect for families with children. The food is delicious in all the restaurants, but my personal favorites are the asian restaurant and the wok bar on the beach.

Difficult to judge because we came early in the season when there was a cold wind blowing and not all the places were open. However, there didn't seem to be many places to eat [not a problem for us as there was one excellent place, though would be a problem peak season] . There were a number of apparently abandoned and ill-maintained buildings, which made the place appear less attractive.

The people are very friendly and most speak or can communicate in several European languages. The city is clean (no litter !!) and the food a and drink is excellent Culturally - this is superb - if ancient history and tall tales of greek mythology are of interest - the museums are well laid out and tourist groups "directed" One significant and pleasant item is that if you are an EU resident and 65 plus you get reduced entry fees into the national museums and attractions ( ID needed)

Stalis is perfect for all ages and families. If you want partying then Malia is far enough down the road to go to and it doesn't overspill to Stalis. We ate in a different restaurant each night of our 7 night stay. It has something for everyone and great choices of food. We will return next year for sure. It has everything :)

Matala is a colorful, beautiful, and lively little town with a great atmosphere. It is perfect for beach days and a good starting point for day trips to nearby museums and archaeological sites. There is a huge selection of good restaurants. It is a good idea to arrive by car if you want to go on lots of trips and be independent. However, there are also bus connections, e.g. to Heraklion.

Very central location with easy access to the center of Heraklion (approx. 5-10 min walk). Very accessible also to the free municipal parking (10 minutes). In addition, be careful of parking right near the stay, there is no parking allowed, so there is a risk of a ticket. You also have a bus station 1 min walk from the entrance door. The neighborhood is very safe at night, no problems whatsoever.

Heraklio is the Big City on Crete.

Heraklio is the Big City on Crete. That said and while it is lovely there are more enjoyable towns and getting around is relatively easy. 4 -5 days in Heraklio was enough for us and the lure of other Cretan places was greater. Overall the Cretan people are mostly welcoming which is heartening given the numbers of tourists going there that must drive them crazy at times!
