Miramare Luxury Villas - Agios Nikolaos

Apartments offer stunning views over Malia Bay. Owner of property was very attentive to ensure my family had an enjoyable vacation. Highly recommend this property.

OMG words cannot describe the experience. From the moment we stepped out of the cab and saw the view, it took our breath away. The place was phenomenal. It was more like a ten million dollar view from everywhere you stood. Every detail was attended to politely and efficiently. Food at the taverna a MUST. Definitely a keeper in our books.

The location and view from the rooms at this hotel is simply fantastic. Terrific value. The staff is also excellent--very helpful and friendly. I would note, however, that the A/C in at least our room, was somewhat sub-optimal and once activated on our arrival, it took the better part of the night to bring the room to a comfortable temperature. I would recommend asking the hotel staff to turn it on in advance of your arrival, if you plan to be remaining in the room immediately upon check-in. Other than that small point, absolutely no complaints.

Fine location for a night's stay before/after a flight. About 30 minutes by car from the Iraklion (Heraklion) airport, but better value than most other hotels that are closer to the airport. Clean, comfortable rooms (though note that air conditioning may cost extra; for us it was 5 euros). Reception staff were friendly and helpful. Free wi-fi was very, very slow and didn't well work in our room, so we had to go to the pool or the reception to use it dependably. The village just a few minutes walk west of the hotel has many charming restaurants and shops, with a vastly more relaxed and attractive atmosphere than the beach area.

Beautiful 5-star hotel with spectacular setting overlooking Spinalonga Island, friendly, helpful and attentive staff, two large swimming pools (freshwater pool at the hotel and saltwater pool near the beach), rocky but nevertheless pleasant beach. My wife and I ate in all three restaurants and liked them all, but Flame was our favorite. It costs about three times as much to eat at the hotel, compared to one of the Tavernas or restaurants in Plaka or Elounda, but food and service was better at the hotel, in my opinion. Fitness center is available 24 hours a day with room key. We were there in May, and there were very few guests, no other Americans.
