We stayed in the adults only area which was lovely. We had our own private pool and the room was very spacious. We had no issues with getting sunbeds around the pool in this area but I know those in the main part of the hotel did have. However the sunbeds were the most uncomfortable I have ever come across and whilst the room accommodated three of us, there were only ever two sunbeds on our private patio, despite us asking for another one three times. Food was great, loved being able to dine in each of restaurants once during our stay as we were all inclusive. The prices for these restaurants were as expensive as eating out in the UK so must be pricey for those on half board. The buffet was good, however the food was lukewarm most of the time and not hot. I have been all inclusive before at other hotels and they manage to keep the food hot. Not sure why they couldn't here, despite seeing other reviews complaining about the same issue. All in all, I would stay in the Adults only section again (though its actually age 13 upwards) but I don't think I would go to the main section of the hotel as the sunbed issue and waiting 30 mins to get served in the evening would be a really pain and put me off. Only one additional last thought, they need a standard waste paper bin in the room, the small bins in the bathroom are not good enough for the rubbish such as empty bottles, food packets, paper etc, so we ended up collecting it in a pile for housekeeping to remove.

The resort was great for the excellent selection of restaurants, food, pools, cleanliness/spotless. Great if one wishes to relax/lounge for several days and enjoy amazing food. On the other hand reception staff seemed a bit defensive and evasive with encountered issues. One particularly annoying thing was 2 treadmills for the hundreds of people at the facility. Having to wait for the right moment for exercise equipment, to work off all that overeating was disappointing. The property is not beachfront, and the beach was painfully rocky. Good stay nonetheless.

Quiet, relaxing resort
We spent a few days in one of the larger suites. It was modern, quiet, comfy. The food was good - not the best we have had but above average. Staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. We'd definitely consider it again for quiet/relaxation time. They probably could pay a little extra attention to cleanliness especially around dining areas.

Nothing unique, just a regular hotel property. Unfortunately the food isn’t really Greek style and could be better. We decided to eat outside. Also the noise of the kids can be a bit annoying. But it’s not an adult only hotel, therefore you have to try to be seated at least outside. Staff has always been nice and try to accommodate our requests. The a la card restaurants you have to make an online reservation and on the day you get confirmation for almost an hour later - sorry, that’s not how it should work. We canceled!

Fantastic all inclusive stay with family
Avra was a stunning large hotel offering multiple large pools with a smaller pool near the beachside, multitude of restaurants with some needing pre-reservation but easy to do throught the link they send you, covering asian, italian and pool side snacks as well as main buffets. The all inclusive option is fantastic and large variety of drinks all available within this. They catered amazingly for my 8 month old son especially for food, Jessie at the concierege helped us greatly in putting together meals to send to the chef and be prepared for him. Overall a few less vegetarian options (as mains) for adults but they did make efforts to do the other dishes without the meat. Staff were all very polite and courteous and hotel was large and very clean and maintined well. Spa area also large with indoor pool, sauna, steam lovely massage therapies also Beach very close by but more pebbles than sand Provided us with many baby amenities

Our stay overall was good, the food was great, facilities etc were good; and staff were extremely helpful. Some things however were not great, hence the four stars: - Upon arrival to the room, although cleaned, the sheets had stains on them, room not entirely cleaned as dust and cob webs on furniture, also there were tiny lizards and other insects roaming around. - There were cats wondering around in the food areas and restaurants, which wasn’t pleasant as not everyone is a cat lover, the staff didn’t respond to this very well, at some times there was also a dog wondering around. - It wasn’t very friendly for children, lacking facilities. - Our all inclusive package was self service only in the breakfast and lunch main buffet halls, where you can choose what to eat, but simple things like a soft drinks machine and tea/coffee and beer etc was all waiter service, it would’ve been good to be able to just get these yourselves. They did have a water and juice machine. The snack bars were only all waiter service and nothing to just grab yourself; and although fairly timely, it’s still not very convenient when you cannot just help yourself and have to wait for food and drink. Not a major issue, but good to mention. - The venue said they have variety of gluten free options however in reality these were not great nor enjoyable. They had one type of GF bread which was not nice at all. If the above were addressed, then we would be really happy to visit here again.

Resort Amazing but room not as good as expected!
The resort was fantastic and the all inclusive was brilliant. Nothing was too much trouble. The only thing that was below par was the room. We booked a junior suite with a double bed and 2 singles. I feel we were thrown in a small suite out the way as I’ve been in bigger hotel rooms at a fraction of the cost. Our beds were made up as 2 singles for us and 2 singles for the kids… the room clearly states a double and 2 singles. That’s the only thing that let it down for me as we paid a lot for our stay and wanted luxury. Maybe we had been spoilt with the previous villa we had stayed in the week before but for an expensive junior suite with private pool… I did expect a bit more room and a double bed! I did ask to move rooms and would pay extra for a deluxe but none were available apparently. The kids entertainment wasn’t great either as only stuff on maybe 3 out of 7 days so it did leave them bored at night at times. The place itself is amazing and the staff would do anything for you but the above issues did let it down for us unfortunately.

The hotel is beautiful, clean and located close to Chania, Samaria gorge and Balos beach. Rooms are spotless, pool area and pool itself great. Food was very good and plenty of choice, the only thing I would add in restaurant was the description of the dishes i.e if it's suitable for vegetarians and vegans. Beach was pleasant but the area leading to the beach needs working on maybe plant trees, plants etc. so it looks more appealing. All in all my stay was very pleasant.
