Situated right on a beautiful sandy beach just fifteen minutes outside of Chania on the island of Crete, this luxurious fully renovated beach hotel designed for adults offers a spectacular family holiday or romantic retreat of sea and sun. Guests might venture into Chania to explore its beautiful old town, or simply lounge in the sun by the expansive outdoor pool and sip a drink from the pool bar.
The spacious rooms and suites are bright and airy, all with an en suite bathroom and private balcony or terrace, and some with sea views and lavish private pools. Guests might sample traditional Greek and Cretan cuisine in the Matter main restaurant or 35° Cretan a la carte Restaurant, and enjoy a coffee and pastry in the Stellar Lobby Bar or Naked star Pool Bar. The wellness centre Orion Spa offers a spa, hot tub and fitness centre in addition to a range of massages and beauty treatments, and the hotel provides free Wi-Fi internet access throughout, all for a wonderful island holiday.
Due to the surrounding area and the number of steps around the hotel, it may not be suitable for those with mobility difficulties.
We had a dream stay at this charming hotel at the end of June. Everything was superb—from the location and atmosphere to the excellent, diverse, and appetizing food, and especially the entire staff's attentiveness toward the guests. Many thanks to Katerina for the daily warm welcome and for looking after our itinerary... a true host and a good friend. We will certainly return to this oasis of relaxation and recommend it wholeheartedly. Thank you so much for everything! The Hansa and Bertea families... the five guests from Romania.
This was our second visit to Asterion and it did not disappoint. From the moment we arrived the service that we received from the attentive staff was second to none.
A friendly porter met us from our transfer coach with a bottle of water each and took our cases to reception. We were quickly checked in and shown to our room.
The room was a good size and was kept spotlessly clean throughout our stay. The bed was probably the most comfortable that we have ever experienced in a hotel.
The food in both restaurants was superb and there was plenty of choice. Manolis and his team were friendly and attentive. Special mention to Maria, Rosa and Leonides at breakfast (who always remembered our drinks order) and Argiro and Costas at lunch.
The drinks at the bar were of a very good quality and a big thank you to the guys who brought our daytime drinks to our sunbeds on the beach when we ordered them via the app.
All in all we had a very peaceful and relaxing holiday, finished off with the nice touch of Katerina accompanying us to the pick up coach to say goodbye.
Our 6 night all inclusive stay at Asterion Suites & Spa was genuinely one of the best holidays we’ve ever had. From the moment we arrived, every single member of staff made us feel so welcome and nothing was ever too much trouble.
The restaurant and bar teams were exceptional. A special mention has to go to Manolis, who is an absolute credit to the hotel and consistently goes above and beyond for every guest. Leonidas always greeted us with a smile at breakfast, Katerina’s local knowledge and genuine warmth made our stay even more special, and George, Rosa, Maria, Ray and Red all helped create such a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. I’m sure I’ve forgotten a few names, but everyone was fantastic.
The room was comfortable with a lovely bed, although we hardly spent any time there because we were either by the beautiful pool, on the beach or exploring. Breakfast was outstanding and we loved that lunch was served à la carte rather than as a buffet. The all inclusive package is easily the best we’ve experienced, with freshly made cocktails, excellent quality drinks and delicious food throughout.
The location was perfect for exploring. We visited Platanias, spent two wonderful days in Chania, and even enjoyed an unforgettable boat trip. The beach is literally metres away and the sea is divine for a quick dip or proper swim (we didn’t take sea shoes so had to walk over the pebbles but didn’t bother us) - all inclusive service comes to your beach sunbed! Amazing sunsets too.
We found the all-inclusive to be incredibly good value for money, especially given the breadth of options on the drinks menu and the yummy food.
What really stood out was just how relaxing the hotel is. We slept for over nine hours every night, which never happens at home. We came back feeling completely refreshed. It’s a very peaceful setting but you’re not at all far from things to do and places to visit.
I would recommend Asterion Suites & Spa to absolutely anyone, whether you’re travelling solo, as a couple or with friends. It was a holiday to remember and we cannot wait to return.
Very good first class very happy
We had a fantastic stay at Asterion Suites & Spa in Crete and would happily recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday.
The standout feature was definitely the staff. Every member of the team was so friendly, welcoming and genuinely went the extra mile to make sure we had everything we needed. Their exceptional service made us feel valued throughout our stay.
Our room was kept immaculate every day, with a high standard of housekeeping that we really appreciated. The pool area was another highlight – it was always spotlessly clean, the sunbeds were really comfortable, and it was a lovely place to relax.
The food was very good, with breakfast being a particular favourite. There was a great selection each morning, with plenty of fresh, tasty options to choose from.
Overall, we had a wonderful experience and wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again :)
