Pelagia Bay Hotel

Lovley Hotel, but had very Dated rooms, The breakfast was fine, but the evening food basic and sometimes the same as the night before, quite a lot of stairs no ramps or lifts so not easy to get to get your suitcase up and down the stairs to your room. The rooms in the adverts do not represent the room we had been allocated, it was very basic, and needed updating, there were a kettle in the room, which was a bonus, the mosquito had half missing so, at night we had to close the window to prevent being bitten during the night. The room was cleaned daily, and all the staff were very pleasant, I would rate the hotel a 2* and not a 3* at present as it need to be updated. There are two beaches we found, one in just opposite the street food restaurant and the other sandy beach was about a 15 minute walk from the hotel down the hill, the beach has plenty of restaurants, gift shops and bars, if you just want a snack, we found Sofia's for a lovely traditional Greek small gyros, also not far from the hotel (about 2-5 minutes' walk) was Geoge's traditional Greek Tavernia, we were greeted by George and all the dishes we ordered was fab and at a great price, so that's worth visiting if you wanted to eat out Also, if you want to go into town, there is a bus stop down the hill towards the beach, the bus top is just outside the local convince store, its 3.50 euros each way, and the bus takes you the bus station, and the main town is about 10-15 minutes' walk away.

We are currently staying here and couldn’t have even imagine to be in a better place in Crete! The hotel is in a very peaceful and quiet location, but about 15 mins on foot from the centre of Agia Pelagia (maybe even less if you don’t get tempted by the many shops on the way). The rooms are spacious, modern, newly decorated, with comfy beds, gorgeous bathroom and a balcony with some really amazing views across the sea. 😊 We are on half-board and it is an excellent value for money - the food is served as a buffet and it’s just so, so Greek - lots of fresh veg, meat, fish and cheese 😊 The staff are worth mentioning, too - they couldn’t be more friendly, but humble at the same time and allowing the guest enjoy the privacy. It’s a smallish hotel, but everything here is absolutely perfect, looked after, we are having the most amazing time despite the weather not being too hot unfortunately.

We both thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this hotel we booked again for next year. The hotel for us was exactly what we was looking for, nice location and views, Clean, tidy, comfortable room. The Breakfast and evening meals were better than expected, a small choice but good quality food and overall a very nice experience. We love the outdoor Pool and Bar with music playing in the background. Yannis, among his many tasks manages an excellent bar that has a good selection of drinks. One of the best things about this hotel was the friendly helpful staff who could not do enough for us, to name a few: Yannis, Stefanos, Lucy, Demitris and Giota, we thank you very much, we had a lot of fun and you made our holiday extra special. Yia Mas. Alan and Rosanna.

Words can not describe the team at this charming little hotel . From the moment we arrived too the day we had to leave , more the pity , we were looked after with a charm and friendliness that few hotels can match . The Team consisting of Yannis, Lucy Giota, Demitris and the hard working ladies who look after the rooms are led perfectly by Mr VIP Stefanos . The food was excellent for the price paid and there was always a good choice , it’s not Michelin but who wants that in Greece , just honest Greek and European dishes. Breakfast was a mixture of hot and continental dishes and again plentiful. We don’t single out staff normally , but after spending 20 years working in hotels and restaurants myself and knowing how tough it is too always be attentive, friendly, and honest with a welcoming smile and non stop can do attitude , Yanni the ever present deserves that applause . 👏. There was never anything that was too much trouble for him to do for us or any of the guests , from morning until last thing at night . This hotel is a little gem and yes it’s not super modern , more traditional which lies its beauty and warmth and all the staff are part of its magic as are the views . We met some lovely people from different countries and made a few new friends as well . We look forward to returning in 24 and until then thank you and Yamas 🍺 Nick and Anthea x

A quiet and relaxing holiday at a friendly chracterful hotel with amazing staff; Yannis, Lucy & Stefanos couldn't do anything more to look after you whatever your need. Friday evening barbeque and traditional Cretan dancing not to be missed. Thanks for making our stay a real treat. Paul and Angie x

We came for a 2 week relaxing stay and that's what we got. The staff are amazing as were the views. There was always something to eat and Giannis made sure you had a good drink too! The rooms although a little dated were spotless and fresh towels and sheets every other day. The hotel is in beautiful surroundings and there was even a pine marten who visited late at night! We would love to go again and thank Stefanos, Lucy, Gannis, Giota and Demitris so much for a fabulous stay.
