King Minos Retreat Resort & Spa

From the moment we stepped into King’s MINOS RR&S, our stay was nothing short of magnificent, making it clear why this hotel deserves its royal name. Our rooms was singed By Comfort and Elegance.The room was impeccably clean and the attention to detail was evident in every corner. The breakfast/lunch/dinner buffet was impressive, offering a wide range of options.The staff went above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction, every interaction was handled with professionalism and a genuine smile [Romina thaks for everythink].The hotel maintained a serene and peaceful ambiance, providing a perfect retreat to "breathe". Our stay was an unforgettable experience. We felt like royalty throughout our stay .We look forward to our next visit to "be" queens once again.

We stayed here for 10 nights on the all inclusive package in a sea view room with a hot tub. Our room was outstanding. Everything is modern with good fixtures and fittings. Bar service is exclusively at the pool bar and Aya, Popi, Manos and George give great service with a smile. They make the experience feel very personal. The food in the restaurant was of a very good standard and we enjoyed every meal. Fresh salads and great local dishes were appreciated. The views from both in and outside are wonderful. Katerina and Christena deserve mentions for their high quality of service. We went to the a la carte for a meal and the food was lovely. The hotel itself is very modern and the pool area has more than enough beds without any need to reserve in our time there. I would say that the majority of guests appeared to be on a half board basis and that the drinks offered in the hotel were of a similar price to a couple of bars and restuarants we visited in resort. Overall we had an excellent holiday. Tip: All inclusive ends when you check out at 11am. Our pick up wasn't until 7.45pm so we were surprised by this as other similar hotels we have been to let your A/I continue until you leave. Not a huge issue but something which could probably be made clearer by the hotel and Jet 2 prior to you actually handing your room key in at the end of the holiday.

Me and my wife honeymoon in King Minos for 5 nights and we were so impressed! 😍 Our room was extremly nice, very modern 👌🏻 The buffet food at breakfast and dinner was really tasty and fresh too! 😋 The hotel staff were really one of a kind 😊 Restaurant staff Dimitris Giourmetakis 🫶🏻🤟🏻

My daughter and I came for a five day break over half term to get some sunshine and recharge the batteries. This hotel ticked all the boxes - beautiful grounds, stunning pool, comfortable room (upgraded with a pool) and good food. We treated ourselves to some lovely spa treatments (facial and body scrub/wrap). Service was lovely and the atmosphere was calm and happy and not too busy. There was music around the pool but it was mellow and not intrusive. I would recommend this hotel for couples / families who are looking to chill out and relax. If you want a bit more energy/fun, it’s a ten minute walk downhill to numerous bars, restaurants and the beach. This is a classy hotel and we wished we could have stayed longer.

Overall a superb hotel, really quality and can not fault the cleanliness. The rooms are luxurious. air con, nespresso coffee machine, robes, etc. We had 3 different styles of room between our family; a pool room and also two sea view balcony rooms; all were excellent quality! The staff really make this hotel 5 star. They are so friendly and happy and genuinely attentive… From Maria on the front desk who was so helpful and gave us great advise to enjoy exploring the island.. the young lads who showed us to our rooms and were great during our stay… and then there are the restaurant staff who are fantastic.. Dimitrious and the team, including Sophia, Gobi, Ashe and the rest of the team are brilliant. Best team at a hotel we have ever had!! You will not feel more welcome and cared for anywhere else. The Resturant food was excellent for buffet style; great choice & always fresh. the displays kept clean and well stocked constantly. The pool area is also such high standard. It is as good as it looks on the pictures with plenty of options to relax and enjoy the sunshine. We will be coming back again!

All the rooms are very clean and modern. Staff were great. Good quality and variety of food every night. Sun beds in the pool are a great idea. Gym is very good for its size. Would definitely return in the future. Would recommend upgrading to the pool view rooms with a whirlpool

Where do I begin. There is absolutely no doubting that this is a beautiful hotel. It’s been updated to a very high level and on arrival you will be blown away. Staff will whisk your suitcases away and usher you into a super cool and large reception area. Guest manager will greet you and advise you to take a seat whilst they get you a cold drink. After a swift check in, armed with a piece of paper with some very basic information, you will be escorted to your room. Our room 1105 was a private pool with sea view. First issue, strange empty space at the end of the room with just a coffee table, no chair or sofa as per pictures… room warm so AC put on, doesn’t really get any cooler…. Oh and quite a number of Ants… call to reception, maid arrives and sprays Ants… leaves us the can…. (Good job). After a couple of emails a sofa turned up, we went out to buy fans as AC didn’t improve although explanations didn’t make sense… only cools to 19… yet reads 17.5/18? No real idea of lay out of hotel nor what’s on offer, get used to that, they certainly lack information. We are all inclusive which should be changed to, you can have what we say and you will pay if you want anything else. Avoid the A La carte, you don’t get menu until you sit and there are 2 starter, 2 main and one desert… and quite frankly the main restaurant is better. Food was good, they know how to cook meat. Breakfast tho was poor and cold. Only bar is outside, which is fine. Not sure what you would do if it was to rain. Over zealous bar maid took a liking to my OH… possibly a bit inappropriate! Bar staff, George, Popi etc all lovely and some of the restaurant staff lovely too. Would we return, no. It’s a very confused hotel. Bit out of the way, no shop on site, too many hiccups for us given the price we paid. Full of Instagram loving kids or confused middle aged people who expected more. Doesn’t need much to make it great and worth the money but the manager is too busy schmoozing his pals to care.
