Great vacation, great staff. Lots to do on and off the resort property. Make reservations early on in your stay for a la carte & try to get the shared swimming pool as the beach flags were almost always Red for the strong currents.

Hotel was well laid out and good facilities. Staff were hit and miss in terms of service, the main buffet staff were good but the staff at the 2 of the themed restaurants were slow to take orders, deliver each course, and remove plates. When the staff were paying attention they were excellent.

Great all inclusive resort
Wonderful stay at the Mitsis Royal Mare, the room and facilities were elegant and perfectly maintained and all staff were lovely and welcoming. We found the food in the themed restaurants great, maybe they could improve the food options for the main restaurant, especially for vegetarian guests. As in many resorts in Crete there were few stray cats and it was nice to notice one of the staff leaving some food and water available for them. They clearly look very hungry and the hotel could certainly leave some more food for them. We have been to other Mitsis Hotels and this is by far our favourite, particularly the rooms with sharing pool and themed restaurants.

Very nice property. Location is a little out of the way, so definitely rent a car OR see about renting the car they have on the property. We went March 25-31 and most of the restaurants and stuff around the resort were closed. Food at resort is good, but some restaurants 30 mins. away are amazing. Tons of cats around the property so don't go it allergic. Would go back.

6/10 Good

This hotel was NOT 5 stars, more like 3.5. Worn carpets, tiny rooms, stained carpets etc, the hotel is in desperate need of renovation. The food was also terrible. No variety or taste. For the price being paid, I expected a lot more. The staff was lovely and really helpfully. The hotel itself was pretty, but it needs a serious makeover and new chefs.

Positives: Beautiful grounds and gardens, very clean, specious rooms, great food, nice speciality restaurants, friendly stuff, nothing was too much trouble Negatives: - letting people reserving their sun beds with towels early in the morning so others can’t find any free. Some people wouldn’t turn in for hours! This shouldn’t be allowed… - no electric sockets by bed - beach a bit stoney, not even, not good for kids - outside the hotel is pretty shabby - nearest town Hersonissos quite tacky - excursions sold by the hotel overpriced for what it was
