My husband, children and I vacationed at the Kalimera Club hotel for the second time. The first trip there was in June 2013. We have something to compare with, and, believe me, we have been to many places, the price and quality are very inherent in this hotel and there is nothing to complain about. But, perhaps, I wanted more free sun loungers by the pool, otherwise there are not enough of them for such a number of everyone. And so, we had a luxurious room, a beautiful and cozy balcony. The choice of food is sufficient for both vegetarians and meat eaters. Indeed, if you want to relax without shouting and fuss, then come and you won’t regret it. The hotel is aimed at adults and children. A huge area where you can walk, several animation areas in neighboring hotels, a lot of greenery. If you are relaxing in this hotel, then all the entertainment and restaurants with the beaches of neighboring hotels are available to you, so you will definitely not be bored. Well, the sea is at its best as always.

We vacationed in this hotel last fall. We were pleased with the holiday and the hotel itself. We took a room on the second floor, overlooking the sea. The room is small, the bathroom has a shower and a bath, which is very convenient. Also, the room has a huge, soft double bed. There is a large mirror, bathrobes, hairdryer, minibar and free safe. I was pleased with the presence of Russian channels. Although we only watched it before bed. The cleaning of the room left an overall good impression. The hotel area is average, but we didn’t expect to see much. But it is well-maintained and skillfully equipped for relaxation. There is a large swimming pool with sun loungers and umbrellas. The beach is sandy, the entrance is smooth and without stones. Swimmed, sunbathed, enjoyed life!

We rested in 2015, at the end of September. The weather pleased us. Very comfortable. The hotel is small, clean and cozy. The food is excellent, there are always free tables, dishes are cleared on time. The range of dishes is constantly changing. The sea is clean, there are a lot of fish, you can feed them and swim with a mask. Beautiful view up the mountain behind the hotel. Large assortment of alcoholic drinks: Metaxa, champagne, beer and cocktails. Nice animation. They constantly invite me to events. Those who have small children keep them busy. It is very convenient that there is a children's pool on the beach. Of the minuses is long road from the airport 2-2.5 hours. Our hotel was the last one and the air conditioning system was poorly functioning. It was hot in the room, although the side was not sunny

Minuses: The room needs renovation.The wallpaper is torn, the furniture is old.

We stayed in this hotel from the end of August to the beginning of September, 14 nights. Family of two adults and two children aged 9 and 5 years. Upon arrival, check at Heraklion airport is quick, luggage is received quickly, the Pegasus counter is directly opposite the exit from the terminal. We loaded onto the bus and went. We drove for 2 hours, stopping at 6 hotels along the way. We arrived at 4 pm and were checked in quickly. At the reception, everyone except one girl, Anna, does not speak Russian. My English is good, so I understood all the instructions: they told me where I could get beach towels and have something to eat now. The staff is friendly. They helped us take our luggage to our room and took a tip. Two more Russian families stayed with us on the same day. Everyone was moved to the top floor. In general, there were a lot of Russians on our floor. I don't know, intentionallydo Russians get best view from the room, but all compatriots were happy. We had a family room with a mountain view. The view is simply wonderful, you can hear the road, but it’s not annoying. It doesn't hurt to fall asleep. Although, who wants complete silence, it is better to take a room overlooking the garden or the sea. The room, in my opinion, has a stupid layout. We had the one with the round bed. That is, there was no door between the bedroom and the 2nd room. It’s somehow wrong for a family: you want to be alone from the children, but that won’t work in this room. The room is clean, the floor is parquet, the furniture is freshly painted, although the sofa in the living room is all stained, worn out leatherette. There is too much furniture: chairs, tables, lamps, floor lamps. I think there is no need for so much. Everything is functioning. 1 Russian channel (RTR). The air conditioning worked disgustingly (central), you won’t get any cold from it on a hot day. Don't forget the fumigator, we were bitten by mosquitoes on the top floor at night. The bathroom is very large: toilet, sink, bathtub, bidet, clean, no foreign odors. They provide soap, shower gel, shampoo. The bed was changed every 3 days. For people who do not know English: if you want your towels changed, throw them directly into the bathroom (there is information on this topic on the wall). Everyone reports regularly. There is no dryer on the balcony, we hung a rope, take clothespins, otherwise everything will fly away. After checking in, they give you 1 bottle of water and don’t give you any more, we slowly poured it into small bottles from the coolers, and never caught anyone by the hand. You can buy it, of course: 70 cents a bottle. There are several shops near the hotel, there is a pharmacy. You can buy everything you need: from powder to fruit, masks, fins and all that. There were diapers too, maybe someone is interested. Car rental outside the hotel is cheaper: 40 euros per day with full insurance coverage (don't believe the guide, he says that only he has insurance with full coverage). The food is more than excellent. I have never seen such an exaggeration in other reviews. Maybe someone was in the midst of the banking crisis in Greece in July 2015, we were already after. There are 3 or more meat dishes for lunch, 2 fish dishes (they don’t know how to cook fish here), and even more for dinner. Periodically there were sea creatures: shrimp, cuttlefish, mussels. Vegetables, rice, pasta, potatoes, soups, mushrooms, sweet table, fruits are 2-3 types, but they change constantly: watermelons, melons, canned pears, nectarines, grapes, apples, oranges. Drinks: Jupi, cola, water, 4 types of wine, beer (good). Be careful with YouTube, my son is not allergic at all, but then he broke out in a rash. They stopped drinking Yupi and the rash went away. Ice cream is good for lunch and dinner, the children were delighted. The beach is huge, clean, the sea is clean, transparent, there are no waves, especially when it’s windy, the sea is generally calm. Around the fish. We only noticed a strong wind on the day of arrival; the next day it still blew, but not as much. Then there was complete silence for 13 days, the heat was 35 degrees. Children's slides are simply an excellent salvation for parents, since not all children love the sea. Entry into the sea is comfortable only for children over 4-5 years old; younger ones are a bit scary. Immediately the depth is 70-100cm. I always received beach towels without a special queue (2-3 people). Someone wrote there that they were roasting in line in the sun, so there is generally a shadow from trees and a canopy near this booth. But you can stand in line at the beach bar for a long time, there is always a crowd there. Hammam and jacuzzi are free. The sauna does not work. The hammam is ordinary, without incense. The Jacuzzi in the basement is useless, it feels like being in a pearl bath, only small holes work, large ones don’t work. The service just threw up its hands, they can’t do anything; out of two Jacuzzis, only one bowl works. Maybe for a separate fee everything would work, I don’t know. The guide is intrusive, looks out only for his own interests, be careful. They actively promote such a stupid excursion as Spinalonga (probably no one wants to go there, by the way, quite rightly). Go to the Palace of Knossos, Santorini, caves (it will be difficult for elderly couples). There are mountains near the hotel, you can go hiking, on a cool day, I think , very interesting, the view will be wonderful. Irapetra, Agios Nikolaous, Heraklion - large villages, no shopping (all sorts of Chinese junk that you can find at home), perfume is cheaper in duty free. Buy olive oil near the hotel - it will be cheaper than in big cities. The hotel is 80% German, a few British, couples with children from the former Yugoslavia, Russian and just a little French, many children and teenagers. By the way, German children are very well-mannered. Animation is only in German, minidisco too. If you know English, the evening shows are not bad (well, as amateur performances, of course). If you rely on children's animation, your child will remain dissatisfied, since not a word is even spoken in English. My children are indifferent to animation, we did not suffer. It’s very nice that everywhere there was a feeling of safety for children (the tiles near the pools are rough, there are lifeguards at sea and near the pools, in the playground the pillars are wrapped in soft material, there is rubber on the floor. There is minigolf, tennis, a gym (so-so), chess, rentals bicycles, all sorts water activities for money (diving, buns, scooter, boat with parachute). Excellent children's water park. Internet is free on the stuffy 0th floor, terrible. We bought a premium package 60 euros 1 week. Very good speed. Games, movies: everything went great. It catches throughout the hotel, even on the beach. It’s a pity for the people who lived in the Anex building; if you walk, it’s very difficult. Although I saw the shuttle, it ran quite often. In general, the impression is not bad, but everything breathes crisis (shabby sofas in the halls, sun loungers, furniture, fittings, a dirty elevator with indecent words scrawled in German), alas, does not qualify for an A. But a solid Balkan four.

Crete is deservedly considered one of the most beautiful and developed greek islands. Completely matches this place resort hotel, How . A special relaxing atmosphere has been created here, reflecting all the delights of a relaxed Greek holiday.
