The private pool in the room was not clean for three days, and they did not offer us an alternative room.

I absolutely loved this property. Dinner at Cretamos was exquisite! The food and service was beyond perfection. The food in the main dining area was amazing as well. The service was excellent. If I’m am ever back in Crete, this is where I would stay again.

What a fantastic vacation spot! Pick this if you are interested in a relaxing time with friends and family! Away from everything, but good bit of activities on property and excellent food! Overall the rooms are just perfect!!
Ravindra, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Amazing resort with very friendly and helpful staff. Pools were great and well maintained and the water slides kept my 11 year old, and me, entertained as did the Tennis courts. Very relaxing and fantastic sunset views. Limited things to do in the immediate vicinty and the buffet food could have been better. Otherwise really enjoyed the stay and made full use of the spa.

Gorgeous property, beach access not beachfront

Beautiful hotel with very friendly staff. It does advertise as a beachfront resort, which is misleading. The resort itself is on a hillside and there is a shuttle to the beach which is a 3 minute drive and walkable uphill.

Andria, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

An absolute gem. One might never have to leave the resort due to how comfortable and accommodating it is. OR. It is most convenient to nearly all Crete has to offer if adventuring. The staff are tremendous. Above and beyond always with a smile. The hotel is perfectly appointed with something for everyone.

This is our second visit to The Royal Senses. Having returned after our trip last year, we loved the place just the same this time around. The service is 5* star, the staff are wonderful and the food is fantastic! This place holds a dear place in our hearts.

Nice rooms and friendly staff but the cable car to rooms, boring pools and lack of beach access really let it down.

This place was amazing. Thank you Yasmine for making out stay feel so special. They welcomed us with a birthday cake one on the days we were there. This is one of the best places we have stayed in Greece, including other islands and the city. We loved it. Everything was beautiful and perfect. Thank you!

This must be my best stay at a hotel ever (i’m 37 years old and travel alot). BEAUTIFUL hotel & our room was gorgeous! Nice, polite and service minded staff that always helped me and my gf if needed. Great location with a private beach, great pool area with a nice bar. Spa, gym and 3 restaurants! Our week here was worth every penny and we will love to visit again soon 😊 also thank you for your lovely farewell gift bag with Greek olive oil and candy. 12/10!
Richard, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had an amazing stay here. The property itself was spectacular being new.. the staff were flawless .. extremely hospitable and willing to please.. we had spa treatments which were ok… but the rest of the resort and the staff negated that.. the annexed resort by the beach means you can have the best of both world .. water sports offered at the sister resort .. would thoroughly recommend to anyone wanting a luxury break. Food wise the half board main restaurant option was decent .. ate at the other restaurants but were not to my taste but despite all that I would still thoroughly recommend !
Nirmal, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Top notch service from the moment you walk in. Everybody, and I mean everybody there provides the best service/friendliness/helpfulness. Whoever does the hiring there does a great job finding such incredible employees. The resort itself is amazing. Clean, beautiful, beautiful views, great pools, good food. I can’t say enough about this place. I guess the one negative (or positive for some people) is that it’s quite a drive to get anywhere. But I guess that’s just Crete being a big island with everything spread out.
Carl, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Excellent Hotel in a bad location

The hotel, the room, the pools and everything was perfect except that the hotel has a wonderful view on a highway... This is unfortunate to have such a beautiful hotel being located next to a highway which is spoiling the sea view from the rooms/hotel. It is also a bit challenging to walk outside the hotel as you are immediately on the highway... The staff, the service and the food at all restaurants are excellent. Only minor comment on the room service which is extremely slow and not always accurate. It is a bit annoying to have missing items in your order when you already waited one hour to have it delivered to your room
1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This was our last stop on our Greece vacation and we were looking forward to relaxing, but that was not what happened at this hotel. This hotel has a lot of work to do to make it a 5 star. We had three different rooms during our stay (and we aren’t picky people at all) our first two rooms had a very bad sewage smell so we asked to be moved. They ended up upgrading us (which we appreciated) to a room that smelt fine. It was at the top of the resort. Rude staff - The staff at the front desk as well as some staff at the main restaurant staff were rude. They made you feel bad for asking for anything. There were two members of the staff looking at TikTok’s as we entered the restaurant one night and didn’t acknowledge us to seat us. There was also some weird tension from the servers in the main restaurant one night, didn’t make for a good environment. Repairs - The hotel is new and looked great in pictures but it felt like it had been open for 10 years. There are things that need significant repairing already - some of the pools leak, our door lock was broken in one of our rooms, tiles are chipped and cracked, the lift broke down one night. Cleanliness - there were ants on food trays that were left outside of rooms for 12 hours. There were also cockroaches around the hotel area. Overall feels like they can do better on the cleanliness.
Todd, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Good quality rooms + pools - poor food + location

A good quality hotel with some disappointing elements to our stay. The rooms are very comfortable and cleaned very well. We had a shared swim up room and it was very spacious even with 3 people in one room. The pools are very good and sun loungers really comfortable. Service by the pool was in general very good, however the drink quality was more "all inclusive" than al a carte (even though you are paying for it). Don't be fooled by instagram, the drinks don't look like that around the pool. They are very quickly made and of average quality. The breakfast buffet is by far the worst I have ever experienced. For the cost of a room you would expect some level of freshly cooked food, but its all buffet. They have a lady making omelettes, but its poured out of a 3 litre pre-mixed jug and tasted horrible. Buffet eggs were under cooked and pre-cooked boiled eggs were raw. There was plenty of pastry / pancakes etc so young children would probably be happy. In a nut shell they are serving a cheap buffet breakfast that you would expect in a lower class of hotel. You can have breakfast in your room / pool on a floating platter - but its just the buffet brought to you so don't waste your money. Location is poor you can't walk anywhere - the sister hotel on the beach in front is separated by a motorway, there is a free shuttle. You have to get a taxi to visit any restaurants outside the hotel or the sister hotel - 18 euro to small town / 50 euro to the large town
