Iberostar Selection Creta Marine

The property was clean and beautiful.

Although the property was clean, it did not have any local charm or culture. Since it’s a huge all inclusive it lacked warmth and felt like a Florida Timeshare. Although we paid for half board, when we went to book our reservations for food, all dining spaces were fully booked. We had to get special permission to have dinner. When we checked in we were not informed that even the buffet required reservations days in advance. I would chops a hotel that reflected the beauty and warmth of Greece, not this HUGE complex will so many people that it never felt peaceful

A truly unforgettable experience, beyond expectations, and absolutely worth choosing this amazing hotel for your stay! Additionally, I just want to point out a very important detail that simplified our vacation in terms of communication: many of the staff spoke Slavic languages and were very polite. That’s a big advantage for me.

Rooms were new ,clean and the best part of this resort.

The check in process was overly complicated and intrusive.The so called beach areas were terrible and not what you would expect for a BEACH resort. Those coves were extremely small, very rocky, far from the rooms and were not well supported or maintained by the resort. They looked more like abandoned quarry’s than beach The pool areas were overcrowded and removed towels from chairs set anywhere before 10:30am. Even if you just step away to eat. Rules were not explained but experienced. Also the towel exchange had very limited hours. If you are not on an all inclusive plan prepare to be overcharged for everything. They are a bit remote so I guess they feel they’ve got you and definitely take advantage of the fact. To the extent that even water is not offered with the half board dinner. I don’t mean bottled just tap.

Friendly place ,nice shows ,

Food need more variety Was a little price also they need to work a little more fast in the ckeck in

The food was delicious and varied, with lots of options for any dietary restrictions and preferences. We particularly liked the variety of daily fresh fruit. The pools were also very nice, the pool bar is a great addition for having a relaxing drink. The entertainment team was very fun and engaging, the entire staff was super nice and friendly.

The room only had partial sea view, facing the kid's pool area :(. The bathroom fan didn't work, so there was no way to let the steam out after a shower, because the small window was blocked. Also, even though checkout time was at 11.00, one staff member let himself in the room at 10.30, without even knocking at the door first. This was quite rude, hopefully this is an isolated incident.

An excellent resort, completly renovated, in a beautiful location, very good service, very creative entertainment, very good food and with beautifully landscaped gardens. Exceptional.

Nice hotel. Rooms in a good condition.

1. We have been in this hotel for 14 nights, 2 adults and 2 children . All of us got poisoned due to hotel sanitaric conditions (vomiting, diarrhea) during the stay in different dates and one of the children got it twice. We were told by the stuff that many people who stay in this hotel get poisoned as well and We even met a child who got the same symphtoms2. This hotel is converting bath water to irrigated one and there is a cleaning facility for that in the hotel area. But every time irrigation is activated, there ia a very bad smell nearby. Maybe its somehow related to sanitaric issue stated above3. There are many mosquitos in the evening, that prevent balcony usage at all. Its strange that this 5☆ hotel did not install any UV lamps or other methods to solve it4. Sheets are not exchanged every day due to their shortage5. Both pillows in our bedroom were very hard. Usually in 5☆ hotel there are hard and soft pillows provided6. Water prices during the dinner are completely exaggerated. 3 euros for bottle of water that costs 80 cents in a nearby shop?

We liked the food. We liked the tipe of the village. It was large with 3 beaches and many swimming pools. We like also the intertament . The staff was friendly and helpful.

We didn't like the working hours of the beaches and the pools 10:00-18:00. In clab like this it's not acceptable.

Catastrophic smelling territory of the hotel, is very difficult to walk around the territory, because the hotel using technical water of very bad quality

Extraordinary. The food, the drinks, the infrastructure, the different restaurants and bars, you never feel crowded which is very important in the high season. The staff is very nice, especially Marietta from the cocktail bar with view of the sea.

The only thing they need to improve is the labelling of the various foods at the buffet restaurant. Some foods do not have a label, others have a wrong one... Complicated when you have food allergies.

it's spacious, a lot of options: 3 pools 3 beachesthe spaa lot of activities in the pool during the dayvery nice staff , friendlyclean and calm hoteltasty food

no iron in the roomsno accessories in the bathroom: toothpaste, cotton,...only one bottle of water offered per stayonce at lunch, the waiter didn't accept to be paid by card if we wanted to divide the bill on 2 persons

Good range of options, plenty of choice

Difficulty booking into the restaurant's. Was told couldn't book a table as only staying 4 nights.

Private beach. Special creek restaurant was very good (service and food).

Food in main restaurant was very basic and the same. No special dinners as usual in such resorts (for example italian food, mexican food, creek food).

It was exceptionally clean, attentive staff, comfortable rooms, fantastic grounds, good food

There was a lack of emphasis on Greek food, food was very international and some restaurants did not open at the times they said they would. Pools did not open until 10am which as a white Northern European and wanting to be out of the sun at midday limited use of the pool - had rules that were not enforced as some people swam before 10 and nothing was said and no shorts at dinner as advised when checking in were not enforced- either do away with the rules or enforce them

Room was huge and decor was very nice. Everything is very well presented. Beds were really comfy, slept really well. Location is really good for nearby beaches (we had a car though). Food was all really tasty. Snorkelling around the resort is really interesting.

Waited quite a while to be shown to our room upon arrival when we would have quite happily have been on our way quicker ourselves if we were pointed in the right direction. Also first time eating at the buffet dinner, no one was on the door to tell us how anything worked, so we had to awkwardly work things out. Kind of annoying that you couldn't get your own drinks at dinner (even if it was just water). Lighting in room had the option to be toned down (maybe before bed) but was still really bright..... which kind of defeats the object? Sounds like a lot of negative but mainly just small things that could be fixed to improve the experience!

Great location, nice pool, easy sea access, wide offer for breakfast and dinnerAll you need for a relaxing holiday was available with a high quality

Facilities are really nice, very clean, great animation team

Food is not good at all, they are looking to charge for every little thing - so 5* :D no iron

Very modern, clean yet comfortable. Beautiful gardens and environment. Loved the 8 private beaches (including the ones from the other Iberostar resort). You were really able to feel peaceful and calm. The water pressure in the shower was fantastic. Also, the small grocery store in the resort is fantastically convenient!

The food was okay, in the main dining area it did feel quite ‘overwhelming’ at some points with the amount of people.

1) multiple beaches to swim and to relax at. 2) excellent selection of foods. 3) Clean and well maintained rooms. 4) Great value for the money. 5) Entertainment at Delphi theater. 6) Privacy away from city.

Reserve one beach for adults only!

Very clean and modern, food was good and staff excellent.
