If I need to nitpick is the the bath is a bit uncomfortable, but it's a drop in the ocean compairing to the rest of the stay!

The staff at this hotel are the best ever! Always ready to help and super friendly! I'll be back there in no time! In the centre close to everything! The matress is 10/10! Loved it! Amazing staff! Amazing owners! My son had an epileptic fit and they were on the spot to help call the docters! I'm.forever gratefull! Geart view! Huge balcony! Loved it

Staff was very friendly, tremendously helpful with everything we needed, including ideas where to go on the island, we visited some wonderful places by their recommendation which are not on any lists on the internet, experienced the island as it should be experienced. Breakfast had numerous choices, and the food was very good.

The rooms were great, clean, spacious and had everything you needed. The staff made it feel like you were part of their family it was amazing.

Noise! It was written "Please be quiet at corridors" but I would say that people don't respect that but also isolation on doors is terrible so you hear every single step what you wouldn't like in 6 or 7 a.m. That part needs to be improved.

Location is good. Breakfast is very nice. Pool and bar are cousy. Generaly good value

The beds were very squeaky. It was an $85 taxi ride between there and the airport at Heraklion.

Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The breakfast was great. The pool area was awesome. The location was near to the beach and there were plenty of shops and eating places nearby. After checkout I was able to use the pool area and there was a complimentary change area to use before we went to the airport.

Noisy beds. The matrases were premium but those wooden sticks holding the mattres were noisy.

Spacious rooms, full kitchen with all possible appliences.

The bathroom is small. There is no dish detergent and sponge for washing the plates in the kitchen. In general it needs some renovations,it could be seen that is old.

Very good position, close to the beach, you could find parking place easily, at least in June, when was our stay, The breakfast is good, although it was the same every day. The pool is good. Very big terrace.

Location and ownership

Nothing to dislike

Axos is a family run hotel (mum and sisters), all lovely. We were treated like friends from the moment we arrived. The hotel is directly on the 'tourist strip' of Platanes, so everything you could need is on your doorstep. The rooms are a very good size, with a good sized bathroom and a kitchenette complete with fridge, microwave, 2 ring hob and enough pots, pans etc. To cook a full meal if you wanted to. A buffet (European style) breakfast was included with our stay and there was always plenty of choice - please don't expect a greasy fry up, you don't holiday in Crete if you want to eat like that - although a fry up can be found if you want to wander away from the hotel. The pool is a decent size but if you want the beach it is a short walk away. We've stayed many times in this area but for some reason, this has been our first stay at the Axos. It won't be our last.

The only thing that we noticed is the floor (its not enough to sweep up, could have wash it maybe) Was a little uncomfy walking in the room barefoot.

Very close to the sea, super friendly staff, good breakfast, great pool, great hosts. Many shops/restaurants/bars around. Special hi to the guy who was using our room's bathroom during cleaning :)

Stayed in August 2023

The rooms are old, and the bathroom is very small. No shampoo or cleaning tools for dishes. Hot water was not all the time. Breakfast served 09:00-10:00. The hotel has only 4 parking lots.

It's was a good location and close to everything. Have a good clean pool. Big balcony. The kitchen was good.
