  Comfortable and very clean

  13 Oct 2019

  We stayed for a week in September 2019. The hotel was very comfortable; we had a suite overlooking the ocean (albeit two blocks back from the sea). The hotel is comparatively small, but everything was kept very clean. Our suite was very spacious with a comfortable sofa and good dining facilities, together with a small kitchen area. The staff were particularly helpful throughout, with some useful advice on restaurants and excursions. There is air-conditioning but we never used it, as we prefer to just rely on the local breeze through the room. There is ample sun loungers both beside the pool and on the second roof terrace, although there were no umbrellas at either location, so no shade. We made good use of both the table tennis table and the snooker/pool table in the games room. The location is very convenient for all the attractions of Agios Nikolaos, whilst being far enough away not to be disturbed by any noise.

  Amazing hotel

  03 Sept 2019

  My friend and i booked to stay here on the 10th July for a week through a online booking company - having read the reviews i emailed the hotel to request a room with a sea view if at all possible. The hotel arranged a private taxi for us which was well worth the 80 euros. As we arrived late at night we couldn't see the view but the room was very clean and spacious and the air conditioning was on. The view on the first morning was stunning, looking out over the sea as requested. We headed up to the roof top pool bar which was deserted and quickly became acquainted with George - George really was one of the highlights of the trip - so welcoming and friendly, we quickly established a routine and, as he would leaving at 6, he would bring us another beer in an ice bucket. We stayed at the pool more than the beach (the beach is stunning by the way) and George also cooked us some very tasty lunches. Michael on reception in the evening was very helpful in suggesting nice restaurants to go to (which didn't disappoint) and Dominique was also super friendly and helpful. We loved our stay so much that when we were there we booked direct with them to come back the last week in August - the second stay was every bit as amazing as the first. Everything about this hotel is superb from the location, facilities and every single member of staff - it is a true gen - i was in 2 minds whether or not to write this review in case it gets booked up and we can't get in next year but it really deserves some recognition!

  Lovely apartments

  02 Sept 2019

  Stayed here for a week to attend a family wedding nearby. Excellent choice, apartments clean, spacious and staff very helpful and friendly particularly George who manages the pool bar. Good food and reasonable prices at the pool bar. Apartments cleaned daily with fresh towels except Sunday. Pool area not really suitable for young Children better suited to couples. Short walk to the marina less than 10 minutes to access plenty of bars and restaurants many over looking the lake. Pebble Beach across the road from apartments but only access is down the stone steps which is okay but hard work coming back up. Would definitely stay there again.

  Lovely apartments in picturesque area!

  29 Jun 2019

  Myself and my boyfriend have just spent a lovely ten days in these apartments; the staff were friendly and accommodating. Our room was spacious and immaculate and had everything we needed for self-catering - we were left a 1.5ltr water for our arrival in the fridge. I emailed Antonis the owner prior to our arrival for a double mattress (as the beds in the studio apartments tend to be two single beds) and to request a sea view, both of these requests were followed-through for our arrival, even though a sea view was not necessarily part of our booking. Also a special mention to the barman, sadly we never got his name, who was so friendly and welcoming, he brought a smile on our faces every time we went to the roof-top pool/bar area - a really lovely man.The actual apartments were located approximately ten minutes from the lively area of Lake Voulismeni, which had a wide variety of restaurants and shops. Nearby towns such as Elounda and Plaka were only a twenty-minute drive and were beautiful places to visit. There is also a daily four hour mini-cruise trip to Spinalonga, the ancient Leper island, from Agios port - also only a ten minute walk from the apartments. As well as this, the waterparks were approximately an hour away, of which you could visit them by shuttle bus by going one of several travel services which were located again, within a ten minute radius. Overall was a really enjoyable stay, in an idyllic area and had everything you needed with a short radius. Would definitely recommend. If we were to go back to Agios Nikolaos, there is no doubt that we would go back to the Alantha apartments.For reference, pics 1, 2, 3: view from roof-top pool, pic 4: roof-top pool, pic 5: apartment view.
