Marika Hotel is truly a marvelous place to stay. From the moment we arrived, everything felt beautifully arranged and thoughtfully designed. Our suite, facing the sea, offered an unforgettable view—especially with the jacuzzi positioned right in front of us. Sitting there, overlooking the waves, was simply magical. The hotel’s location is also perfect—just a short distance from Chania’s enchanting old town and easily accessible from many directions. But what truly makes Marika Hotel stand out is its incredible staff. They are the true gems of this place. Maria, the manager, is an exceptional person. She went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful stay. Despite a small conflict, she did everything possible to make our experience pleasant, and I am deeply grateful for all the care and attention she gave us. Her kindness and professionalism made a lasting impression. Katerina, another wonderful member of the team, was also always helpful, warm, and attentive. In fact, it was the staff who turned our trip into such a memorable and beautiful experience. I cannot thank Maria enough for all that she did, and without a doubt, I will be returning to Marika Hotel. For me, it is the most beautiful hotel in all of Chania.

We were with our 1.5 and 3 year old. It is a great place to stay with your kids. The kids bar has everything (with plastic plates, highchairs).. There was always pasta, pizza, fries, salad and fruits. The baby pool and playground was great. The activities for kids made our life easier (Kids' Disco, Little Splashers, Parent & Baby time, Magic Show...) The different cuisin nights at dinner ( Japanese, Mexican, Greek, Italian...) was nice. Great entertainment team, smiling faces all the time. Breakfast 7:30-10:30 Snack bar 11-18 Dinner 18:30-21 Soft drinks+Beer+Wine was free. Cocktails, everything else you had to pay. There are 3 stores near the hotel, where you can buy almost everything: Pampers, swimming suite for kids, toys for kids.... We arrived early in the morning with a plane and although the chech-in was at 3 PM, we got a room at noon. Also got a room upgrade which was really nice. The beach is sandy, but when you enter the sea there are pebbles, so the swimming shoes came handy. We had a Family Suit with shared pool. The suit (3501) was next to the main swimming pool which made easy for us to reach everything and wasn't noisy at night, but we didn't have much privacy on the terrace. The sofas and beds are comfortable.

The location is great, it is close to the beach, the pool is very clean. The location is not overpopulated, there are amenities for kids, the food was very delicious and we had a huge variety to chose from every day.

Very good hospitality and location:) perfect place for staying with kids! Special thanks to Christina and her friends from the restaurant:)

Very clean room, good cleaning and gifts. Amazing view from the balcony. Good AC and bathroom.

Everything perfect from the arrival to departure! Clean apt. quiete location despite the very central location. Pool area best, no annoying sun bed show, sea very close. Staff so cute and welcoming, all staff! 😍

I liked the beach and people are very nice to guests. The rooms are big. There is an access to beach and pool. Pool is clean and maintained. You are greeted by helpful and funny beach stuff.

Very nice location. Right on the beach and also close to the conference center at Minoa Palace. Large room and modern bathrooms. Staff were very accomidating.

The hotel is lovely! It is located in a desirable area close to many shops, restaurants, and bars. It is an older hotel but well maintained. Breakfast had a good assortment of fresh food, including fruits and pastries 🍰 Swimming pool was sparkling clean. Thank you for your hospitality!

The apartment hotel, with its quiet gorgeous pool area at the rear of the property, on the hill above Platanias, is a lovely place for a peaceful stay that is still close to the town. Regular cleaning of the apartments by staff plus changed fresh towels/ bed linen mean the apartments are very comfortable. We loved our balcony. The warmth and helpful manner of the owners & staff seals a great holiday experience. We will return again!

Super thoughtful staff! Immediate responses and accommodated all our requests with a smile. Cannot fault them. The lady at Reception was so kind and professional. Excellent location, great layout, clean, spacious. Awesome balcony for hanging beach towels. Safe to walk at night. Fully air conditioned.

Excellent location, friendly staff, good facilities, good restaurants around - Yamas.

Very clean, spacious and comfortable.
