We visited this property for our 10 year anniversary. The staff were very friendly and helpful with recommendations for places to visit. The food was amazing. The beach is a little rocky and has a small access area. So not like some of the other beaches however the views are breathtaking. We would definitely stay here again!

If you want a 5 star top notch resort away from the bigger city tourist trap, don't think twice and book this hotel. You will not regret your decision. The food is excellent and on par or slightly lower than you would pay in Los Angeles or other large cities. There is a small town Stalis 1.6km or 1 mile away with great bars and restaurants all along the beach with little shops, and markets, which offer a nice change of scenery and break up the routine from the resort a bit to go grab a local greek dinner. The resort staff is very friendly grom check-in to the beach team to the restaurants. This area of Crete is best for folks wanting to relax and stay close to the resort in my opinion as the other main attractions in form of the famous southern island beaches are over 3.5 hours away and the next bigger city Chania is also about 2.5 hours away. For people wanting to go to those cities and places a hotel closer to those spots is better. However, the Abaton is modern and a rare find and in a class of its own and truly makes for a nice relaxing vacation with its own small sand beach, with plenty of sunchairs, the lively Buddah beach bar and huge pool that easily accommodates the people at the hotel with grrat music and the backdrop of ocean waves and wave sounds. Super happy with the hotel and worth every penny. Great and many different room size and layout choices. Book it !!!!

We had a two week stay May2024 and I have to say, we had a fantastic stay. We arrived just before the beginning of the season and it was pretty dead to be honest which was really nice to spend the first few days to relax. We mainly stayed by the pool most days and was very well looked after by Claudia who is a real asset to the team. She’s relentless in making sure you are well looked after. My main frustration is the rule around the use of the sun mattresses (yes that’s not a typo) around the pool being €150 a day. That’s ridiculous and there were only 1 or 2 being used, mainly after a certain time in the afternoon when things start to wind down. Personally, this is the one thing that needs to change as that’s a silly price. The food and booze is excellent although on the expensive side, you do get what you pay for so make sure if you don’t have all inclusive, you bring some cash. Everything else was brilliant, all of the team at the front desk and buffet breakfast should get a massive shout out. If we ever had an issue, it was sorted pretty much immediately. The hotel is situated 10 minute walk from the main town and you will find some brilliant local tavernas around there to complement your stay. Enjoy!!

Very large property. Chic resort, with an “all inclusive” resort feel. Definitely not intimate, if you are looking for that feel. Nice beach inclusions along the property. The food was very average and higher price point. Our service and food at Buddha Bar, which has a lovely view, was not good and no awareness to the food not eaten. The room had an awkward layout, open concept, with the shower separate and right at the door. Our suite had ants all over the bar area and outdoors sitting space. The rooms are temperature controlled by the door being opened and closed - hard to regulate. Very warm and then too cold.

Good hotel but not worth it
It’s a nice enough resort and property. But very overpriced for what you get. I don’t see this Iine as a 5 star hotel. The linens and beds were great. The gym very nice. I found the rooms to be tacky for my taste. I would not stay here again especially for the price. I got a two story room. The service was great. The staff friendly and helpful. But when I think 5 star and this price I think four seasons and other type brands. And this is not there. Not even close.
