Lovely hotel right in the heart of Stalis. Perfect for quick access to the beach and a 35 minute walk to Oooh Ahhh Malia. Our third stay at the hotel and would definitely return. Staff are ,almost all, friendly and helpful. Room 133 was great. The girls from the Spa, where you pick up your pool towels, are all fantastic.

This is a 3-star resort at best. We stayed at a number of 5-star resorts while in Greece and Royal Cactus unfortunately wasn’t one. The resort definitely nickel and dimes you. They claim all inclusive but so much costs extra. A sparkling wine or Freddo cappuccino or even a bottled water costs extra. Any room service costs extra. The drinks that are included taste very artificial. We stayed at other resorts that were not all inclusive and the Freddo cappuccinos were included as part of breakfast. One night I didn’t feel well and asked if I could have a bottle of water to take up to the room and was told it would cost 3.50. Which was fine and I asked if I could room charge, they couldn’t figure it out for almost 5 minutes so I finally gave up and said not to worry about it, and went up to my room without water… instead of them just showing some hospitality and letting me take it. Be prepared to inhale smoke everywhere you go and to never be able to find a pool lounger. We only ate at the resort once bc the food was dry and bland. Desserts were good. No dinner drink service or waiter service at the pool. Poor WiFi and hot water ran out a number of times. Cleaning supplies left out in the hallways for guests to see every day. If you want a true 5-star experience, take your money elsewhere!

A taste of luxury without the luxury price tag

I was very impressed with my stay. The facilities (hotel, gym & spa) were exceptional & there was plenty of variety at breakfast and lunch (i didn’t sample the food options in the evening). The staff were very friendly & couldn't be more helpful. The pool was always clean but despite the pictures on the website it's difficult to do full lengths & is more of a cool down type of pool. There is frequent themed nights & whilst I was there there was traditional Greek dancing & singers on. The only thing I could fault was the mattress was very hard so took me a few nights to get used to it & get a good night's sleep. I also used the voucher for the a la carte restaurant within the hotel called Elia. The 6 course meal was absolute perfection & the menu contained some of the best food I have ever eaten so you must visit there if you stay. Very luxurious, well worth the money.

The private pool in our room was phenomenal, yet the towel services for the resort were obscure. Also, the large resort pool chairs were always “held” by patrons who never removed their towels which was frustrating as someone who came in after them.

Das Hotel ist im gesamten sehr sauber. Das Essen ist abwechslungsreich, es kommt keine lange weile auf. Verbesserungsfähig ist die Zimmerreinigung. Im Bad wird nicht mal der Duschvorleger hoch genommen wenn man ihn liegen lässt. Wenn Kosmetiktücher alle, dann alle. Dabei wäre es ein leichtes diese nachzufüllen. Aber das sind wirklich Kleinigkeiten. Ansonsten war es ein sehr schöner Aufenthalt.

Auf Grund der hervorragenden Bewertungen haben wir uns für dieses Hotel entschieden. Leider muss ich sagen, dass ich diese hohen Bewertungen nicht nachvoll ziehen kann. Das Personal war teilweise sehr unfreundlich vor allem bei unserer Ankunft am Hotel. Wir haben nur eine Zimmerkarte erhalten für ein Zweibettzimmer, keine Erklärungen nur die Zettel die sollten wir lesen. Absolut nicht akzeptabel für ein 5* Hotel. Unsere Ankunft war gegen 21 Uhr 15 und da haben wir schon kein Essen mehr bekommen, trott All Inklusive Hotel. Stattdessen wurden uns zwei latschige Sandwichbrötchen mir Chips aufs Zimmer gelegt. Das Essen war teilweise eine Zumutung vor allem das Fleisch, sehr trocken und nicht warm. Die All Inklusive Cocktails werden alle mit minderwertigen Alkoholen und Säften zubereitet, so dass man nach einigen Cocktails sowieso freiwillig darauf verzichtet. Im Allgemeinen waren wir also sehr enttäuscht vom Standard in diesem Hotel und würden auch nicht wieder dorthin gehen.

The hotel is in a very nice location. One of the swimming pool where we sun bathe most of the time has a nice view of the mountains. The food and drinks are excellent, hats off to the chefs and kitchen staff. Majority of the staff were really friendly especially the bartenders and the waiters. Will recommend this hotel to my fAmily and friends. Crete is a stunning island.
