- Europa Beach Hotel

This hotel is built in Cretian village style and consists of several buildings surrounded by magnificent gardens. The sea is just across the road, and a small bathing cove is located near the hotel. The nearest beach lies about 100 m away. Análipsi lies 1.5 km away and Chersónissos can be reached in 6.5 km. The tastefully furnished rooms at this modern hotel ensure comfort for their guests. The well-tended outdoor complex features both seawater and freshwater swimming pools, each with children's paddling pool. Guests can also cool off with a refreshing drink from the poolside snack bar. Sports enthusiasts will be thrilled with the tennis and basketball courts. Travellers can enjoy all their meals in the main restaurant which is set up in buffet style with a variety of Cretan, Greek and international cuisines.
Due to the surrounding area and the number of steps around the hotel, it may not be suitable for those with mobility difficulties.
The hotel is amazing, very clean, modern and aesthetically pleasing. The rooms were spacious and cleaned daily, and the staff were incredibly attentive and couldn’t do enough for you.
Although some people reserved sunbeds very early in the morning, we never had an issue finding one. There are several places to eat, and the food was really nice at all of them, with plenty of choice in the main buffet restaurant.
We especially enjoyed the à la carte meals at Ocean and Ble. These are an additional cost if you’re staying for less than 7 days, but as we booked for 10 nights, we were able to eat at both restaurants. They do need to be booked through the hotel’s online app.
The only negative for us was the evening entertainment, as there weren’t enough seats to accommodate everyone. The DJ by the pool, however, was brilliant!
We didn’t visit the beach as the sea was very choppy, so we spent most of our time around the pool. Analipsi is only about a 10-minute walk away, with a number of restaurants and bars if you fancy a change of scenery.
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and have already booked to return next September!
Thanks to all the staff at Stella Blue for making our stay an enjoyable one. Look forward to seeing you all again next year.
A great, spacious hotel with really friendly and helpful staff. The hotel was fully booked during our stay, but it never felt crowded at all. There’s plenty of space, lots of different areas to relax, and several pools to choose from. We really enjoyed our stay!
Wow wow wow, had a lovely week at the hotel, from arrival to leaving the service was really good. Every member of staff were professional, helpful and above all appeared friendly and happy. A special mention to Christian who served us drinks on the terrace. He was brilliant. The food was of a high quality and the Ocean & Ble restaurant made for 2 lovely evenings. The hotel is kept immaculate and the cleaning staff work really hard. The hotel and it’s staff should be very proud of the service they provide and hopefully we will return.
While it’s a beach front location and view is lovely the beach is disappointing not a lot of sand and sea very rocky - need water shoes only used once
There isn’t a lot around the hotel and while some shops a few minutes walk the local town is a good 30-40 mins walk and not ideal if not fully mobile
Taxi service is available from hotel and we did this to Heraklion
This is a great hotel for a chilled relaxing holiday the staff are all lovely and the food is excellent both in the buffet with a different theme every night and 2 al a carte restaurants offered good menus and food was excellent.
The hotel is very clean and bright. With a relaxed atmosphere and vibe.
We stayed in the luxe swim up rooms which were beautiful and roomy - my only concern was that there didn’t seem to be enough ventilation in the rooms making our clothes damp and our shoes - the large shower was amazing and powerful with towels changed everyday but again not vents in the shower.
There was entertainment most evenings and on some days a DJ round the pool which was amazing and gave a real beach club vibe.
This is not a hotel for groups who want to party as things tend to close at 11pm and if you want to carry on drinking you have to pay.
I would definitely stay here again for a week of RnR - well done to all keep it up.
Absolutely fantastic holiday me and my partner had here staff was amazing and helpful the hotel is beautiful we had a luxe swim up room and had sun from 12pm onwards food was fantastic (could maybe just be a little hotter in the main buffet restaurant) but overall we had an amazing time
