Caldera Bay

Pros: Location, pools, breakfast, overall this is a great place to stay

Cons: Rooms need renovation, microwave oven, wardrobe with shelves

Lovely hotel but mixed feelings

Pros: The beach was lovely and the hotel had a cosy atmosphere. Our room was clean and the reception staff were friendly. From the outside the hotel, especially the \

Cons: Our room had an unfortunate view as we were stuck staring at a wall with graffiti from our \

Very good experience at Caldera Bay!

Pros: The staff is very kind, smiley and helpful. Rooms are cleaned daily, and the hotel, including the pools, is spotless. Breakfast options are varied and meet different dietary needs. Several trips to historical sites and the most beautiful beaches in the Western coast of the island can be booked via the hotel. The hotel is literally on the beach, and only 20 min via bus to Chania. Overall, a very good experience at Caldera Bay.

Cons: Unfortunately the swimming pools are not accessible in the evening. We would have appreciated the possibility to take a bath after dinner as well.

Pros: Pools & availability of sun beds were excellent Proximity to beach and location within Platanias were both excellent Staff were really easy to deal with Breakfast was nice Shop within the complex was cheaper than other local shops on the street for a lot of items

Cons: WiFi in our particular room was not great, but was good at pool The decor is a little dated and kitchenette could be improved.

Fabulous holiday altogether.

Pros: The staff, especially Stella and the lovely lady on reception, were very kind and helpful, and make us feel very welcome from our arrival right up until we checked out. We had a room upgrade which was amazing and we were most grateful for it. The breakfast was fantastic and the location was excellent. All in all we had a great holiday and we will definitely return. The cleaning staff around the complex were so lovely and did an amazing job keeping our apartment clean and tidy. Thank you 🙏

Cons: The furniture in the rooms needs upgraded/replaced. Bed leg was broken on one and double bed wasn’t the greatest. The interiors do let the apartments down, but we still had everything we needed for our holiday.

Wonderful!

Pros: Great place, wonderful view (beach) and tasty breakfast!

Cons: Nothing to mention

Pros: It was great for the price. Good location and good selection at breakfast, shame about the lack of fresh juice and coffee. The pool was lovely and the mini market on site was handy. The rooms were variable but some parts could do with a bit of a touch up. The mattress was a bit hard and the pillows a little lumpy. The toiletries weren't as shown in the photos, but I think it's standard now to only provide soap dispensers attached to the wall, and the hairdryer would've taken a week to dry my hair. I had a studio which was bigger than usual with a separate bedroom. The room was really quiet and had good curtains for blocking out light.

Just wonderful

Pros: Breakfast was superb Location also superb Staff lovely Cleanliness great

Pros: Nice hotel on the beach with plenty pools and stores around. The staff really friendly

Cons: The rooms are outdated and the beach is not the nicest in crete

Pros: Caldera Bay is in a great location lin Platanias , on the sandy beach and a short 50 metres walk to the strip . The strip (in Platanias is very busy with loads of bars, shops and restaurants to go at. There were a lot of German holiday makers there which is no issue at all but I thought I should mention it for this review to be accurate . There are regular buses into the city of Chania. We were on a bed and breakfast basis, the breakfast was lovely and is a buffet style with all the usual dishes and more. Overall it is a really good hotel and good value for money .

Cons: Nothing not to like
