Staff was great we enjoyed the food I think the main draw back was it’s a very popular spot on hot days and there isn’t designated parking for people staying at the resort, so sometimes when we would come back it was really hard to find a parking spot

Beautiful location. Very cheap accommodations. Not as advertised. Rooms were terrible. Bathrooms were clogged and no one could fix them. Food was bad. It’s like management has given up on the place. I would visit for a day but not spend the night. We paid $360 EUROS for this place and I feel so ripped Off!!

This must have been an amazing all inclusive resort in the 1950s which appears to be the last time it was repaired. Still has great amenities like pools, scuba, food, yoga and entertainment but the rooms and facilities are pretty rundown and outdated. Still a good deal for the all inclusive stuff available if you can overlook that.

This is not all inclusive! Continually expected to pay for things. Not enough staff. Food hit & miss and continually running out. Not enough crockery, cutlery etc. dirty tables. This is not a spa! No spa facilities. No cocktails. No food between set meal times. No drinks from bar in evening. Sheets not cleaned in 10 days. 8minute taxi drive to nearest town. All very tired and unloved / grubby / tatty

Gorgeous, quiet location.

I had a lovely stay here and would come again. I will say that while the property is clean and the staff take care of it, it does need a little lick of paint here and there but overall it is a beautiful location and a true place to relax and recoup. I was disappointed that there wasn't yoga classes as posted, but I was able to book a private class with a teacher, who was great. Booked with their masseuse a few times as she was WONDERFUL (Rose if I remember rightly) Handy swimming pool right outside my room (salt). And a little general store on site which after realizing that Plakias is a 15min drive away, was good to have on hand. Scuba diving in the cove was gorgeous and there was a little spot you could jump straight into the ocean near the main pool. The cove is not the beach however, the walk to the beach is about 20 minutes and up some very steep stairs. The view is amazing, but I'd recommend wearing solid walking shoes as there is loose gravel/rocks and the drop to the ocean is sheer. The entertainment was mediocre to be honest, and the location would benefit from a karaoke night in my opinion. All-inclusive does not include all drinks, beer and wine only. But the food was decent enough to not bother going into the town except for a treat. Great nudist beach nearby in Plakias, with regular beach down the road. Lovely little town.

Could do so so much better

Reception - nice welcome from the lady at reception, we went all inclusive but evening bar wasnt - false advertisement on the baord at reception as when we asked for ultra all inclusive they said oh sorry we dont do that anymore. Pool bar - was meant to open at 10.30 but it wasnt the guy will arrive at 11 and he would say that he needed 30 min to organise Pool areas floor SUPER DANGEROUS as the floor was super wet no sign for wet floor and tails are so dangerous- saftey 0 Sunbed old and dirty Food was ok they could do so much better, staff super tired and sorry to say to have white tops they should change it for all the services as some of their tops were yellow from sweat. Rooms old and dated, uncomfortable beds, smelly and leaking toilet. The only thing that save this hotel is the location and the view.

The pools and outside space are lovely at its very picturesque but the room was very dated and the bathroom was in poor condition with glass slats missing. The air-conditioning is old and struggled to cool the size of room. The shampoo and shower gel dispenser was broken when i contacted reception the receptionist was unhelpful. People smoke everywhere and even an employee who has a room in a no smoking area thinks it ok with children around.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The photos are VERY misleading. The beach on the property was beautiful. Friendliness was a mixed experience-1-2 very nice, most ambivalent/neutral, one unpleasant type of situation. 2 pools were open; they had lots of green algae growing on the walls. Rooms were extremely dated, but clean enough. The beds were HARD AS ROCKS. The literal hardest mattress I have ever slept on. There was a mini fridge. Nothing to make coffee or tea in the room. Water is 1 euro. It’s a drive to get there. Food was ok. We were on our honeymoon, with plans to go hike the Sumerian gorge the next day, but rerouted to the Kalypso due to its proximity to where we were, because of heavy rains in a sudden storm we got caught in. Roads were unsafe, and it was a place to go for a night while the storm passed. Thankfully we were only there for an afternoon and morning. It would have been a depressing trip if we’d had to stay multiple nights. We’re honestly confused by the positive reviews

Room : 0 cleanliness i had the bungalow room , it was dust everywhere , mini bar looks like it was never clean for years to be honest , the bathroom was quiet okay. Restaurant : the quality of the foods was really poor , there was flies everywhere , you couldn’t identify what was what because there was no sign or no identification. Spa : it was a let down when we walk to the spa to spa table was disgusting, there was no privacy at all my it’s across of the gym , i don’t know should be calm a gym at all , it’s completely empty. Bar : it’s quiet okay they have a good selection of drinks , definitely enjoy it Overall this place have so much potential to be great , the views is amazing , they really have to step up ! the pool is amazing , the bathroom pool not at all they should have someone 24/7 there to keep it cleaning it. The staff is very friendly and helpful they help and told where i should go eat outside of the resort 

 they shouldn’t call this place a resort because they have only 1 restaurants beside the view they have nothing to offer lol

Die Anlage ist sauber und gepflegt. Vor allem hat man eine große Auswahl an Pools, wo man immer ein ruhiges PlĂ€tzchen finden kann. Auch mein Zimmer wurde regelmĂ€ssig gereinigt. Leider hat das Bad eine Regendusche, die aber direkt vor der Toilette hĂ€ngt. Somit wird das ganze Bad zur "Dusche" und ich konnte nur mit Flip Flops duschen. Ansonsten ist das Personal sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Preis/Leistung stimmt und das Essen auch.

Wir waren im August fĂŒr 16 Tage als Familie im Kalypso Cretan Village Resort und insgesamt recht zufrieden. Die Anlage ist sauber, die Pools sind wirklich schön und die Aussicht einfach toll – perfekt zum Entspannen. Auch die Mitarbeiter waren sehr freundlich und stets bemĂŒht, uns den Aufenthalt angenehm zu machen. Das FrĂŒhstĂŒck war in Ordnung, aber oft leider nicht wirklich frisch. Die Zimmer sind gerĂ€umig und sauber, allerdings schon etwas renovierungsbedĂŒrftig – hier könnte die Anlage in Zukunft aufholen. Insgesamt aber ein schöner, erholsamer Aufenthalt mit einer traumhaften Lage und viel Potenzial.

Complexe vieillissant

Nous avons séjourné une nuit dans cet hotel resort pour l'expérience et trÚs grosse promotion. Il s'agit d'un trÚs grand complexe hotelier vieillissant. Ce complexe a une localisation exceptionnelle, éloigné de tout, au bord de la mer. Par contre il faut absolument disposer d'une voiture si vous souhaitez visiter les alentours. Accueil agréable et chaleureux. Le complexe manque globalement d'entretien à la fois sur les installations de type bassins, fontaines, végétation, ce qui est fort dommage vu le potentiel. Les chambres sont trÚs mal entretenues et vétustes, rien n'a été changé je pense depuis la construction dans les années 80. Notre chambre était immense mais trÚs peu fonctionnelle. Le petit déjeuner était délicieux et trÚs varié. Le prix payé était dérisoire donc je suis assez satisfaite de notre court séjour mais je comprends parfaitement les commentaires pour des séjours plus longs et au prix fort.
