Room was large, air conditioning worked well, and our one meal at the restaurant was fine. We were only there for 1 night, arriving late in the evening and left very early the following morning to catch a 6am flight. The proximity to the airport along with an advertised 24 hour airport shuttle was the main purpose for choosing this hotel. We found the floors of our room dirty, and the throw pillows on the bed had a musty smell. When we arrived with our party of 3 and 6 pieces of luggage, we informed the the man at reception that we needed to use the shuttle for an early flight the next morning. He informed us as we all stood in the reception area with our bags surrounding us that he would arrange a taxi for us for the following morning. We stressed that we needed a taxi that would be able to fit everything. He called the taxi as we stood there, speaking in Greek of course, and told us the taxi would pick us up at 4:20am. The taxi arrived the following morning, but told us that he would not have room for all of us and we would need to call an additional taxi. He then told us that no other taxis were available at that time of the morning and he would have to come back and get the additional person for another 20€ fare. He continued to berate us for not informing them that we needed a larger taxi. So if you are expecting to make use of the hotels airport shuttle that is advertised, you should just assume that they will just call a taxi for you.

A short stay close to the airport.

They were very accommodating to us with a very late arrival. It is only about a 5 minute drive from the airport. The room is basic but clean. For a one or two night layover, it worked great and the staff were very helpful and friendly.

Booked these suites as we had a late flight from Heraklion and had to check out of our accommodation early. Perfect location right on the beach-and 5 minutes from the airport - swimming pools and restaurants on site. Suites have everything you need and are comfortably furnished and very clean. The staff were lovely as well. Highly recommend.

The room was renovated and clean except for mold in the shower. The bathroom cabinet was peeling. Restaurant access was great. Beach is very close. Small pool at the resort but the adjacent pool bar has a nicer pool area. AC was nice and cold and each room had its own AC unit. Worst part was the noise. Voices carry from outside very easily and airplanes coming and going are bothersome while sleeping. There is a city bus stop nearby but taxis add up quickly (20-25€ each way) when going to attractions, airport, ferry port etc. as this is far from those areas.

George, was extremely helpful and pleasant! He was in constant communication with me prior to arrival. He made plenty of recommendations based in our needs. Places to see, how to get around, where to eat! They were all spot on!
A great family place to stay with a restaurant with a children’s playground( for younger children under 10 ) The local beach was very clean, well maintained, and beach goers were very considerate and respectful! A great place to visit in Crete very close to the ferry port!

This property is 1 minute walk to the best beach in this area. Best value for the money. Definitely Would stay here again.

I highly recommend it.
Btw its a 5 min drive to the airport. Jorge arranged an early taxi for us at 6am which made our next day's travel plans flow easily.

Kind of a dump

First thing i saw on property was huge cockroach. Man who checked me in very nice and told me hotel had a place to buy drinks. In the morning i had a hard time finding anybody to help me at front desk. A woman who didn’t speak English eventually came. A random guest translated that there was no coffee or water available for me to buy. Very bad vibes here. Shower looked dirty. This place looks nothing like the photos.

We'd come back again.

We had a short, but relaxing visit here. The property is not right on the beach, but is an easy 1-2 minute walk, and the views are lovely, and the water very clear. We had one major complaint--our bathroom was extremely moldy. We asked the staff about it, and they did their best to clean, but at least some of the smell remained. The free breakfast is not anything great, but it is enough. The restaurant was quite good and reasonably enough priced. The staff were helpful in getting us taxis and one of the waiters spoke very good English. It was very quiet and serene, and the air conditioning helped during the warm afternoons. It was lovely to sit out on the balcony in the evening and watch the sun set. All in all, very much worth the money.

The property was run down, the fridge was rusting, the bed sheets dirty and unclean. You had one big towel for a double room that did not get changed throughout my entire stay. Worst of all is the extra quests - like the cockroach that decided to come to say hello whilst brushing my teeth. Avoid!

Could be better

Stayed one night there because of its proximity ~ 2-3 miles to airport and promise to offer shuttle to airport, which we found on the Hotels.com. We had early morning flight to Athens and wanted to drop our car in airport in the evening and use the shuttle. At the reception we were told - no, we do never offered the shuttle, but we your can use taxi for ridiculous 20-30 Euro one way: 10 Euro/mile . We had to drive to airport, to rebook the car for extra day and to wake up extra hour earlier - e.g. to do what we tried to avoid. This was disappointing in addition to a luck of places to have dinner around the place - probably because of low season.

The property is definitely aged, and doesn’t seem to be cleaned very well. The restaurant was supposed to be open until midnight but wouldn’t serve us after 11. There was also no shuttle to the airport as stated. They had some staff that were very sweet, but other staff that were not helpful or accommodating whatsoever. This property is in a secluded area so don’t expect to find any other restaurants nearby.

Comfortable, friendly, fantastic beach

I spent just one night here with my family when we travelled from western Crete to visit Knossos. We had a suite that sleeps 4, one double and 2 sofa beds. Comfortable beds,plenty of bedding and ac in both rooms. There was a huge balcony that went around 3 sides of our suite, with lounging and dining furniture. The kitchen area could have been better stocked with crockery but we didn't cook so it wasn't an issue for us. Pretty good wifi.
Nice pool, good restaurant and a fantastic children's play area. This and the resident kittens made it a fun time for all.
Anemia is on a fantastic sandy beach with tavernas and water sports. There are a few little shops around the corner. Breakfast was basic but good.
We found this a good place to use as a base for seeing Knossos and wished we could have stayed for longer

Le personnel est extrêmement accueillant, adorable et toujours prêt à rendre service. L’emplacement est idéal, à proximité de la mer, ce qui permet de profiter d’un cadre agréable. C’est également un excellent choix pour un départ très tôt vers l’aéroport grâce à sa situation pratique. Nous recommandons cet hôtel sans hésitation !
