Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers good value for money, with an excellent location near the airport and beautiful beaches. The rooms are clean, the swimming pool is well-maintained, and the staff is friendly. However, some basic room amenities had issues like ants on kitchen work surfaces.
The Galini Apartments is a lovely place to stay with some minor drawbacks. I fell in love with the atmosphere here, but I did notice that the rooms were a little tired. Despite that, the thorough inspections and fines for cleanliness standards were impressive.
A great find with clean rooms, friendly staff, and excellent value for money. Perfectly located for airport access and beautiful beaches. Room cleanliness was top-notch, plus a very welcoming swimming pool area. However, fines for excessive inspections were a downside.
The hotel's rooms were nicely decorated, super clean, with nice bathrobes, and a spacious private balcony; however, they were basic with ants all over the work surfaces of the kitchen. The location was perfect and quiet, ideal for a relaxing holiday, close to the highway and a midpoint to Heraklion and Agios Nikolaos. Dining was not specifically commented on. The swimming pool looked clean and big enough to enjoy, and meeting the local people added to the experience.
