It is a modern well designed hotel which will be demand as the developments around it are completed.

Amazing staff and hotel!
The hotel manager and bar waitress were absolutely amazing people. The hotel was absolutely beautiful and the food was exceptional! We stayed here to go to the pink beach and it was a crazy mountainous drive and crowded but the hotel made up for that in their amazing view! We would ABSOLUTELY stay here again!

Great Beach Stay
Nautilus bay was a wonderful place to stay in Crete. Our room was large and had a big patio outside. The staff was great. The breakfast, both the food and restaurant views were excellent. The weather was a bit chilly, so we didn't get to use the pool or beach chairs and umbrellas. It was so quiet and relaxing there. It a short walk to the restaurants on the waterfront on downtown Kissimos.

We had a beautiful room over looking the ocean. A beautiful breakfast set up in the morning. Maria was just a doll and helpful with tips of great restaurants to go to and completely prepared us for Balos beach by ensuring we wore shoes and not flip flops! Best advice! Isabella was also very sweet and knowledgeable. Very nice property with wonderful service! Thank you Maria and Isabella!!!

Being on the beach meant not having to take anything with you, just stroll back to the room. Or order from the bar and they bring it to you on the beach where they had numerous sunbeds with shade.
Dont usually do hotels but this had the best of both worlds with a fridge and hob, plates cutlery etc and kettle in the room if you didnt want a full restaurant or bar.
Our first room was VERY close to the pool which made for some kiddy noise but they swiftly moved us up a floor which was great. If you have kids it is very easy to keep an eye on them in the pool, just that we dont. People were all lovely a thoroughly enjoyable experience.
