Lovely hotel, fantastic services. Spa facilities were great and Eugenia was amazing at the hotel wellness spa
Katya gave me an excellent 90minute shoulder and back massage. I have one every year when on holiday, my lower back was in a lot of pain, I’m hoping is relieved. Katya applied lots of pressure which was needed to relive my tensions and knots in my left side more so than right and my lower back pain. I would definitely recommend this and you get 15mins extra thrown in too. Thank you Katya.
Had the back, shoulder and Neck massage with Emma. The whole experience was very professional and it was a pleasant and effective massage. Would recommend this service if you’re in the area for sure. Thanks Emma
We have had a fantastic time. The food was lovely. Very varied. Lots of fresh tasty food. We had a great massage by Katya and Eugenia. Felt very relaxed afterwards. All the staff at Aelius have been welcoming and polite. Crete has been an amazing host for what may be out last family holiday. We have had some fab experiences that will create memories for years to come.
Me and my boyfriend went here for an evening of dining, the restaurant was beautiful. The staff were so polite and welcoming. Food was incredible (coming from an extremely fussy eater). Would definitely recommend coming here during your stay at the hotel.
