Akasha Beach Hotel & Spa

We had a great time, the facilities and service are excellent. We were disappointed with the food, both the breakfast, lunch and dinner. The only food that was tasty and appropriate for the hotel level was the food that was paid extra in the restaurant on the beach/pool. There is no free drink, the water is sold at a price 13 times higher than in nearby supermarkets. Even if you arrive very early all the beds in the pools are taken/kept, people keep them even while they go for a few hours to eat/sleep, but the hotel employees, unfortunately, do nothing about it.

a beautiful hotel with the best service and beach

Stunning!

My girlfriend and I have just returned from a week long stay (29/4- 6/5/2024) at Akasha Beach Hotel and Spa and there aren't enough words to sum up our stay. From the moment we arrived we were treated like royalty. Salis the bellhop was friendly and helpful in explaining the way things worked and where to go and due to our late arrival there was sandwiches left in the fridge for us as well as a complimentary bottle of Tsikoudia which was delightful. Going all inclusive was 100% worth the money. The food in the restaurant for breakfast, lunch and dinner was exceptional, the selection of salads, fruit, breads, cold meats etc was second to none and we only had 2 meals outside of the hotel as it was so good! Our room (1107) was the "basic" urban chic but even that was incredible and we had a lovely view of the fountains below on the main walkway from the reception past the restaurant and bar to the pool area and it was kept immaculately everyday by the housekeeping staff who have out deepest thanks. Every day when we went in for a meal were greeted with friendly smiles and good morning/afternoon/evening and within 2 minutes of sitting down we were asked what we would like to drink, which were then brought swiftly and followed with "enjoy your meal." Most meal times we always had the same 2 waitresses, a blonde girl who we never actually caught the name of which is our fault and another called Maria who looked after us like family. The Maitre D who again, we never caught the name of, was also very friendly and welcoming every meal time and was great with other guests children. We would like to make a special mention of the two bar staff by the pool. During the day, Rafaela was always on hand, checking in to see if you needed or wanted anything to drink or eat. Within 5 minutes of us arriving at the pool on the first day she had came over to see us and from then on looked after us so well. During the evening, we sat by the pool bar after dinner and Elina again looked after us so well keeping an eye and anytime we got even close to finishing our drink she was over to ask if we wanted anything else but by the end of the week she didn't even need to ask, Rum &Coke and a Pina Colada (both of which were delightful) and we never had to wait for one. We got near the end of one round and another was brought over. We cannot thank Rafaela and Elina enough. The pool areas were all immaculate and lovely to be around. Water was very clean and refreshing and all round there is not much else to say! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were very sad to leave as we cannot fault the hotel or staff in anyway. We will be hoping to return around this time next year and we cannot wait to do do! Thank you to everyone at the Hotel and we hope to see you again soon! Dave and Jess

Booked for a week all inclusive mid October. Had read previous reviews and sun bed availability issues and repetitive food but can honestly say, didn’t experience either! Upon arrival, we were greeted in reception with a refreshing beverage and asked to take a seat on the sofas to begin check-in. An App is then uploaded to your smartphone which acts as your key to your room (or you can request a std keycard if you prefer) We were then shown to our room, where enroute given a tour of the hotel & facilities. Room was immaculate! Cleaned daily and minibar re-stocked with beer, Prosecco & soft drinks. There’s a choice of 3 outdoor pools, one indoor and the beach. We chose to use the rooftop pool most days and never had an issue in getting any. You’re supplied with towels for use on the beach and pools, which are replaced daily. Staff are super friendly! Special mention has to go to Ioanna, Nada and Dimitris! Always chatty and by day two knew what drinks we liked! Food selection and quality were amazing! As we were all inclusive we did have the option to have one meal in the A La Carte restaurant but didn’t feel the need to as there was always a great selection at the buffet restaurant. We were so impressed by the staff & hotel, we’ve already re-booked for next year!

Akasa Beach Hotel, Crete, Chersonissos For the second year, we visited Akasa Beach Hotel in Chersonissos, Crete. Once again, it was a great experience at this luxury hotel with friendly staff. Special thanks to Stefanos, the restaurant manager, for his outstanding service during our holiday. The food was delicious, and the variety was impressive. The pool area is pristine, and the beach is just steps away. Overall, it was a fantastic stay, and we are already looking forward to our next visit. Thank you again for a great time!

I arrived back from a wonderful 7 nights all inclusive stay at Akasha! WOW! Is all I can say, this hotel is asthetically insane, it is by far one of the most cleanest hotels I have ever visited, nothing is out of place. We recieved a complentary upgrade which was the perfect way to start off the holiday - We looked some of the other rooms we got offered but the one we chose just did it for us!! Food - Incredible, I love fresh food and the food at buffet resturants did not dissapoint, so much choice. Salads, Yum!! Cocktails are soooo good, PINA's were to die for!!! Staff - I have never been to Greece before but I think now it is my new favourite place and the people are some of the most friendliest, sweetest people I have ever met. We loved the guy who worked round the pool, very friendly and just a sweetheart nothing was too much trouble and he made putting the umbrellas up look like a breeze!! Hotel - As I said this hotel is stunning, it really is out of this world but I have a small gripe and that is the music they play around the pool in the mornings/afternoon - It is terrible! Considering it is a "vibe" hotel which is more geared up for the younger, I say younger but 25+ (I'm 35) the music is very poor, we arrived on 15th May and the music round the pool was great, good R&B and then it just changed to what I can probaly describe as supermarket music. There wasn't alot of entertainment on as such but the day before we left (21st May) there was a really good DJ on - Even though mid May is still early in the season, the music would just help a little for your customers visiting at this time - I know a few people did moan about it.. You have another beach bar right next door to the hotel with sunbeds and the music in there was great BUT you don't want to have to leave such a stunning hotel for good music but it was BAD!! There is plenty of places to sunbathe at this hotel but round the pool seemed to be the favourite, maybe because of the music again .. We tried the beach, the music was poor more geared up for the 50+ (sorry) and then the music on the rooftop wasn't much better either!!

Mariana at the spa is an excellent masseuse. While staying at the hotel I booked a neck and back massage. I was quite nervous as it was my first spa treatment. Marianna set my mind at ease and she was very calming and made me feel very relaxed. Treatment area is very soothing, thank you
