Yianna Caravel "by Checkin"

Very nice hotel, great amenities, kettle, iron / board etc all in room. Really nice staff, right on the beach & close to bus stop, so good I extended my stay, highly recommended.

Die Unterkunft ist renoviert, modern und sauber. Das Frühstück ist ok, das Frühstückspersonal super freundlich und herzlich! Dinner ist sehr gut, u.a. sind Fschsuppe und Lachs zu empfehlen. Die Pizza ist lecker und riesig. Gerne wieder!

Had this place recommended to us for food, on arrival we were seated overlooking the sea (perfect setting) the waiter dimitri was very very attentive and friendly, we looked at the menu and he explained all the different dishes and what was in them, we had smoked pancetta, pasta with a creamy sauce and fish, everything was cooked to perfection , followed by the most amazing cocktails made by the lovely Stefanos, his professionalism and skills are second to none The owner came to our table as well (kostas) which was a nice touch, all in all we can not recommend this beautiful place enough and we will be back, thankyou for your professional hospitality

Absolutely wonderful boutique hotel. Absolutely amazing stay! My room was big, clean and extremely comfortable, including the bed. I had a large, lovely tub that I enjoyed at the end of the day…heaven. The beach was very clean as well (beaches closer to Heraklion tend to have quite a bit of litter). The food was also delicious. They provide huge portions, so don’t over order lol. It was just a short 5 min walk to the main road, so transit is very accessible, including the hop on/hop off bus. All in all, a fantastic stay at an extremely reasonable price.

We spent six days in the hotel with my husband. Check-in and check-out went without a hitch; the staff was really nice! The room we booked (1st floor, sea view) was excellent, clean, roomy, and cozy. We have back problems, so the quality of the mattress is always critical, and theirs was perfect (squishy but still hard enough so we don't get up and are unable to walk). Due to the hotel's facing North, the wind is quite strong, so the waves are a bit bigger around midday and early afternoon - an ideal time to go surfing. Also, the brutal heat is eased by the cool wind! :) The beach was right in our mouths, so we could just go down in swimsuits and towels. We also left our phones and things like that on the beach a few times, because their own beach is very safe, and there is always at least one waiter around the beach. The food was excellent, we got a surprise little ice cream after every main dish! ^^ They have a wide selection of several kinds of food, mostly Greek and other Mediterranean dishes. The breakfast is rich and tasty, we could always find something new to try. The servers paid attention to my lactose intolerance, they were helpful and fast. It was really nice to lounge in a curtained box of sunbeds, order some snacks, and eat shrimp or tiramisu right there. Special shoutout to the servers whose kindness and professionalism made us feel truly welcome and made our stay extremely comfy. :) I don't know what hotels get the 5th star for, but in my heart, they have 5 stars! ＜3 :)

Right on the beach. Spacious, clean room with water and coffee and tea. Friendly staff. Noisy at right as the restaurant is open late.
