Featuring floor-to-ceiling windows and earthy colours, the rooms of Aquila overlook the Cretan Sea or the town from their balcony. Each unit is equipped with air conditioning, satellite TV and a mini bar. The luxurious bathroom is stocked with bathrobes, slippers and a hairdryer.

The hotel is beautiful and clean. Everything looks new and well maintained. The room was big and comfortable. We enjoyed the staying very much. There are three pools (one indoor) and the private beach across the road, so you can always find a space to sit and enjoy. The food was very good in the breakfast and the chef created, with a smile, special dishes for my vegan wife everyday. The place is very close to the old town (15m walk) and it's located straight on the boardwalk.

    The hotel was very nice. Don’t expect the 5 stars, but the price vs condition was fair! Clean rooms, availability of swimming pool, the location and the staff (super friendly and nice).

    Brand new hotel; very quiet and clean. Excellent breakfast. I'd recommend the Almyra restaurant near the beach, exceptional cuisine, friendly staff and moderate prices for a 5 star resort.

    The most amazing, meticulously designed 5 star property overlooking the beach. Nothing is too much trouble for the lovely owners who will ensure you have a wonderful stay. Fresh produce served daily, surrounded by home grown herbs next to the pool area. Excellent wifi throughout, including the private beach across the road. My week was one to remember and I’m so grateful I discovered such a hidden gem. I will certainly return.

    The hotel was exceptional. It should be 5 stars instead of 4 as we after visited 5 star hotel in Heraklion and Theartemis Palace was much better. Staff was great. They even called to my room via phone and asked about my stay and do I need something, that hotel exceeded my expectations and I would definitely recommend it.
