The staff/owners went above and beyond in their attention as well as should there be any problems they with dealt with ASAP.
As our taxi airport transfer wasn’t due until 1400 hrs they allowed us to check out late obviously this is dealt with a case by case as the hotel occupancy at any one time may effect the possibility.

Just great. The stuff was lovely, very attentive. I could borrow a yoga matt, which I used during my stay.
The breakfast buffet was outstanding. It just had everything (pancakes, bread, smoothies, salat, cheese, …), but still changed a bit every day.
The other meals were also good but relatively modern. I ate far more often at a small restaurant around the corner (Two friends), which hat amazing local food.
The pool is very nice, though I did not use it.

Gouves its a village, perhaps not as glamorous as Chania side of Crete but I liked it. Is a bit unpolished, I would say, not with that feeling of drowning under the - all included large hotel complexes and the tourist vulgo that comes with it. Its a more apartments district with greeks coming on vacations too. Plenty of taverns with prices ranging between; main courses 7-14€, drinks 5€ and cocktails 7€, breakfast 5-8€. It also has several Super markets, two of them larger with everything you need. All the above its at walking distance. 10 min with the car or moped from Gouves up inte mountains, you come to smaller villages like Hersonissos with fantastik tavernas and beautiful views.

A charming village, about 15 minutes from Heraqlion by bus (no. 2 from the airport).
Do NOT miss the Asteria taverna next to Lavris hotel: every Sunday and Tuesday a live performance of traditional Greek and Cretan music, with the beautiful Anna teaching Greek dances. It's not a tourist taveran (although there are tourists there of course) but aimed mainly for the locals. We will remember our two visits there as one of our unique experiences in Crete, and no doubt the most enjoable of them.

The day I was in Gouves the beaches were basically nonexistent due to the high tie and was very very windy. Walking along the sea was nice but given the nice beaches the island has to offer I'd rather go somewhere else or at least not stay there for long
The property was ideally placed with a perfect view of the sea and nestled between a range of restaurants and good public transport..
The property was modern, clean and the jacuzzi is a fantastic idea.. great shower lots of space and nice neutral decor.
The breakfast in the room was lovely with a variation everyday and staff could not do enough for you.. I would choose this again and again..
Love the quietness of the hotel but steps away from lively bars with friendly locals and staff. Waking and sleeping to the sound of the sea is calming.
Having had our home flights cancelled due to storms and floods and being "put up" in an awful hotel by our airline.... THIS hotel which we booked ourselves was a "haven" in the disaster.
What a wonderful reception we had from the staff, fantastic room 216 with a sea view.... even though the storms were still happening.
The food and ambience were wonderful. The pool looked lovely. We would recommend even though we only spent one night here before heading home.
Small family hotel, friendly staff, close to the beautiful beach. We have booked quite spaceous apartment which was just by the pool. Rooms were always clean, bed was comfortable, wifi and A/C in our apartment worked well. There is a possibility to take COVID test in the hotel´s premises which is a great advantage these days. Guests were mainly from Poland, Czech Republic or Russia, mostly with kids. Entertainment was twice a week.
I will totally come back to Gouvesbay
Clean rooms, excellent service, food was really amazing, the drinks at the bar with kostas and savina which makes your holidays even better, you won’t get bored with your staying at Gouvesbay hotel with the entertainment team they have daily program and different show every night
Thanks for all the team at the hotel who made our holidays the best that we could ask for
See you next year
Friendly, helpful staff.
We got bigger room with seaview.
There was welcome pack in the fridge - water, juice and fruits.
Free airport shuttle - arrived on time, fast.
All inclusive matches the price - drinks are available during day, but don't expect large selection.
Food is similar every day, but it sometimes depends on time when you arrive.
Beach is sandy, only 20 meters from the hotel.
Small kitchen in the room.
Everything was unforgettable. The room is nice, with comfortable beds. Food is very, very good, planty of choice, very good quality, nice position of the hotel. All stuff is very kind, but we would like, especially, to thanks Katharina (receptionist) for extremely kidness and help. We strongly recommend this hotel, not only for short stay. We hope to come again soon.
This is hands down the best place I've ever stayed and best value for money. The staff are like my new family, the most caring and lovely people who treat you like genuine family. Amazing facilities, beautiful apartments in an amazing central location. We had the perfect holiday, and a massive part of that was this hotel. Couldn't recommend more!
Ευχαριστώ πολύ
like home from home.Well equipped with everything you need.Nice quiet location with a few tavernas close by .5 minutes by car to busy area of Kato Gouves if you want it .Owners Giannis and Georgia so friendly and helpful.Nice touches with their own made olive oil , wine and raki.Myself and my wife really enjoyed our stay and found it very relaxing.
Only animation guy George. That's all. There is nothing more to like about this hotel. We paid 2100€ for one week and its not worth even half of the price. NEVER AGAIN that place. We traveled in crete first week all over staying in different hotels they were way better. I wish I would never choose this place.
Lovely little apartment in a wonderful location in Gouves. Right across from the sea with a balcony overlooking the water and a gorgeous view of the sunset. Apartment had everything you'd need. It's over a hypermarket - owned by the same people so there is always someone around if you need anything.
Nice hotel setup with some gardens and a good pool area, all not too large. Very friendly and helpful staff, helped finding a place to do the mandatory covid test before flying back home. Very quiet and relaxed atmosphere.
The hotel is very clean with large rooms, a pool and a good buffet breakfast. The owner and staff were so kind and helpful. Beaches, bars and restaurants are a short stroll away. And tour buses pick up just up the road.
Beautiful, quiet resort, very attentive staff. The breakfast and dinner buffet were outstanding. The location was perfect for excursion pick-ups. We had a wonderful time, we highly recommend the hotel !
Amazing and super lovely hosts, I felt like part of the family and very welcomed. Food was great, and their restaurant is one of the most beautiful that I have seen in Greece.
