We stayed an entire week in the Minoa Palace hotel (Imperial side) and really liked our stay: cosy rooms, nice and clean swimming pools, great breakfast overlooking the sea and incredible prices even for May... This hotel could really be fantastic if it just payed attention to small details: TV not working, sheets not changed despite the fact that we... More

This is a lovely hotel, 5 star - well just about. It doesn't quite hit 5 star but is about the best 4 star you will ever stay in. The kids club was brilliant and highly recommended. Excellent food and facilities. Will go back in a few years. The food varies with themed nights in the main buffet restaurant. Apparently... More

Stayed in July with our little 3 months old son. We booked a room with a privat swimming pool. At arrival we got an upgrade to the Imperial Water Front. We were really happy with the room, sea view, and enough privacy when swimming in our own pool. For dinner, every day another theme and "live" music or traditional dances.Food... More

We stayed at the Minoa Palace in mid October. The hotel wasn't very full but this was great as there was no waiting and loads of room everywhere. The room was very spacious and in excellent condition, there was a bottle of wine and fresh fruit waiting for us on arrival. There is a fridge , hair drier, dressing gowns... More

The hotel wasn't very full being end of the season (a bonus) and the service... More

We have just returned from a week at the above Hotel and must say that overall it was a pleasant experience, with a a couple of issues on the minus side. The Hotel was being used by first Microsoft for a Conference, so first day very busy with large number of Guests, they left the following day, then another Group... More

We spent a lot of time browsing for hotel before leaving for Crete and saw that Minoa Palace had got very good reviews. We also checked with my mother who had been there one year before during the same time (mid October) and said it was great. So our expectations were high since it also got an award from Tripadvisor.... More

This Resort style hotel is an excellent venue for conferences or for a relaxing break. The rooms are spacious, and well appointed and cleaning is excellent. The facilities are great with a range of pools to choose from and a clean beach adjacent. The road running through the centre of the hotel detracts from the overall ambience, but within each... More
