My wife and i stayed here for 8 nights. The hotel is really the place to chill, you can just chill inside and outside with a pool. The receptionists, housekeepers, chefs, animators, waitresses, bartenders are great. Only 1 problem, we had to stay in a room where we didn’t book. We had no internet because of the room, and our balcony view was just full on a tree. We then moved to a preffered room, the old woman receptionists was being kind of angry at first. Then she became cool after we talked a bit. The animations are fun, at daylight and at 22:00. I really recommend the hotel, if you want to chill and have fun at the same time. We only went to the city once, because it’s really good to be at the hotel. The staff are from different countries, but they are like a big family. Don’t forget to buy a sunscreen, because they were some people who are really burned. The weather is always sunny and hot which is nice. This is also the first time that we try an all inclusive hotel, instead of being a tourist in a city, and it was really good. The food are great, being able to use spices your own spices is also great. Being able to try different food. I would come back if i wanted to chill again. And thanks a lot! Efchalisto!

Nice stay in good price

I have spent in Gouves Bay 4 days. I really enjoyed the stay. I recommend this place. Gouves Bay is located in the small calm city. If you would like to go to the turistic city, I recommend to book something in Hersonissos. If you wish to stay in place where there is not a lot of tourists, Gouves Bay is the best choice. Few meters to the stone beach. 5 mins to Sand beach. Food Quality is nice (not perfect but standard for all inclusive program comparing to other hotels where I have stayed around the Europe). The problem with the food is that it tastes like nothing. Chief should start to use some local spices. Huge advantage is selection of all inclusive beverages. I would say in all inclusive program, you can choose something from the list of 40 alkoholic and non alkoholic drinks. Rooms are completely renovated, beds very comfortable, air condition is for free. Staff on the pool bar (Kostas & Savina) is very nice, polite and they want to help you to enjoy the stay. They are very postive. On their face is always smile. Waiters are OK and professional, I haven't had any problem with them. Man from reception is very nice and postive person. He also welcome all the gests. The only one person who doesn't suit to Gouves Bay team is Lady from reception. She is trying to be helpfull as minimum as possible. She behaves very strange and most of the time it looks like she works there because she must. It looked for me like she was ironic. Anyway I payed very good price for stay and I recommend you to stay in Gouves Bay. I would give 4.5 rate out of 5 but this is not possible.

5* experience

I have no bad words to say about this hotel. We loved our stay! Upon arrival the hotel was overbooked (cancelled flights so no fault of their own), which was resolved easily and we were sent to a 4* hotel nearby with a big bag of food prepared from dinner, as we arrived late. Our room at Gouves Bay was extremely clean and spacious with a lovely view. No problems with the room facilities either. The gym was free and had most things you would need. I also had a 40 minute massage which was extremely good value and the masseuse seemed experienced. There was a large array of food on offer, it may have been a bit repetitive but there is something for everyone and this was not an issue for us, couldn’t find fault with anything we ate. The pool area was gorgeous day and night, always enough sun beds and it is right opposite the sea, with beautiful sandy beaches either side, along with shops, bars and restaurants. The location is perfect, 20 min taxi drive from Heraklion airport, 25 minute by bus which was only €4 and the stop was a 10 min walk from the hotel. Heraklion is a beautiful city to explore. It is also equally as close to Hersonissos which has great night life and Malia a bit further. In the hotel itself there was an array of entertainment in the evening with a long dance show on one of the nights. Finally, the staff were amazing, so accommodating, no question was a problem and everyone throughout the hotel was so friendly. In particular the bar men were the so incredibly friendly and they made our stay that much better, the drinks they made were also great. Overall, we had a really good stay, a good value hotel which goes above and beyond expectations.
