Agios Dimitrios Homestays

Lovely stay, nice food lots of activities but not perfect for honeymooners

Easy to get to from the airport, we just hopped on the #6 city bus, and there is a bus stop right in front of the property. City busses are clean,and cheap, I think it was about 5€ or so, and takes about 35 mins. Check in was really smooth. The place is spotless, customer service is very good, they upgraded us to a small bungalow right next to the beach. We were taken by golf cart which was nice. Accommodation was clean, and new, nice bed, decent bathroom, it's a little small, but has a shower, no tub. Really nice deck area to have coffee and listen to the ocean. The room has a small fridge, a safe, decent closet space, a small couch, queen sized bed, large TV, and great wifi. Actually wifi was available everywhere on site. We opted for the breakfast package, which was actually very nice. Buffet style, but literally dozens of options. Fresh fruits, breads, cheeses, yogurts, cereals, many many hot dishes, you will not go hungry. We also had one formal sit down fancy dinner which was also very nice. We didn't really use any of the on-site facilities, but we did hang out at the pool for a few hours one day. Even though it seems like there was a lot of people there were still a lot of loungers available. Pool looked really nice, only a few people used it. Beach area also has loungers and umbrella for free use. Really nice sandy and shallow beach, great for kids, but it does get windy, so keep that in mind. Impressive amount of smokers manage to keep a steady supply of cigarette butts in the sand at all beaches we visited. Kind of gross, but this seems like a European thing? Can't say we have seen this in other places. I would easily reco.mend this place due to the fact that it was really clean, food was nice, easy to get to, lots of off site dining, gift shopping, bakeries, grocery stores, and car rental places within a 10 minute walk.

A visit in April 2024 to Hotel Marilena made some wonderful memories to last a lifetime. We went on our first family trip with a child and were blessed to choose this hotel. The staff greeted and treated us like family members. The waiters and bar tenders were enthusiastic and helpful, not only with drinks and foods but also with recommendations and friendly support. The food deserves to be ranked by 5 stars, is really worth eating there, and serves well for vegans, vegetarians, gluten-free diets, low-fat or no-fat diets as well. Always two or three sorts of meat and fish, so fresh and tasty. The beds were comfortable, the room was tidied and new towels were brought every day. The TV worked perfectly with some radio stations installed. The pool was spacious, as well as the lounges around it. The hotel offers some indoor and outdoor games too. The sea, with a sandy, clean beach and a pleasant entrance to the sea to swim, is only 5 minutes away. The location is brilliant, as the bus stop is right at the gate, and one can travel to the city center by bus No. 1 in about 25 minutes, as well as return by bus No. 6 straight away. Easy access to the airport - same bus, just a 40-minute ride. The taxi stop is at the very gate as well - easy access to any place of Crete. A car rental office and some shops are just round the corner. Will definitely come back again. Love from Laura
