Our stay at Happy Cretan Hotel was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the friendly and welcoming staff who made us feel right at home. The suite room was nothing short of amazing, very modern, spacious, and impeccably clean, with a private pool that was perfect for relaxing in peace and privacy. Each morning, we enjoyed a delicious breakfast with a great variety of fresh options. The hotel's stylish and contemporary design added an extra touch of luxury to our experience. We can’t recommend Happy Cretan Hotel enough and will definitely be returning on our next visit to Crete!

Wow wow wow ! The hotel was just beautiful The view breathtaking? The staff AMAZING!!!! Awesome food !!! Lots of choices. We would definitely recommend and we will be going back with family ❤️❤️❤️
Constandina, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The staff was truly amazing and very helpful with everything! The only thing I would recommend is a shuttle service to the city center. 45 euros each way adds up quick and expensive.
Desiree, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

About 30 minutes away from Heraklion, so I would recommend renting a car. You can arrange a taxi, but it’s better to have your own transportation on the island. Food was a bit hit or miss. Breakfast had a large spread- I didn’t know until after the fact but you can request an omelette or fresh eggs. Room was lovely and we enjoyed being in a hot tub suite!
Kelsey, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We had a really enjoyable stay at the Happy Cretan Resort. The sea view from our room was gorgeous, and it was one of the highlights of the trip. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, and the amenities were everything we needed for a relaxing stay. We spent a lot of time at the pool, which was peaceful and had amazing views. The restaurant served very good food, and we appreciated the variety and quality. What stood out most was the friendly and helpful staff—everyone was welcoming and went out of their way to make us feel at home. Overall, it was a great experience, and we’d definitely stay here again if we’re back in Crete.
