"Everything was fantastic, best location we would have asked for. We met Nikos the manager, his wife Gill and the owner of the properties, all were fabulous. We had a great time and looking forward to the next time!"
"I don’t really leave reviews but I wanted to leave one to thank Kostas for his exceptional hospitality during our stay.
We were in one of the bungalows and it was a great size with all we needed for our 10 days. The view is spectacular and we loved the location. Remote and peaceful with the most incredible beaches nearby but an easy drive to nice restaurants and supermarkets when we needed them. Perfect.
Kostas’ hospitality is what really made the trip so great. He lent us bikes, showed us...

"The apartment was small but fine for a couple. It was clean, modern and well equipped. It is in a great location for exploring the East of Crete. The complex was very quite and the pool areas were delightful.
A car is a necessity.

5/5 Excellent
"Minos Palace is a gorgeous property with wonderful staff and top notch service. The hotel was able to arrange a taxi for us from and to the airport. Upon arrival, we were upgraded to a larger room with a nicer sea view, received a very warm welcome with a welcome drink and tour of the hotel. The food is excellent, every staff member is very friendly and attentive, and the amenities were fantastic - spa, restaurant, lounge area with live music & DJ, pool, beach, and wellness activities like yoga and sound baths. It's also a short walk to the town. I would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing vacation in a beautiful setting, and would easily stay here again. Thank you to the team at Minos Palace! "

"One of those places one wishes to keep a secret. A place that’s beautiful day and night with a breathtaking view, open air sunset dinning and wonderful fresh food. Amazing breakfast buffet for every taste..The property is removed but at the same time located that the (fishing) village of Agios Nikolaos can be reached in walking distance. Best time MidMay to early June and mid-September to October before and after the turnover crowds arrive … and stay at least 10 days/2 weeks to allow 2 or 3 days for exploring the historical sights of Crete"

"It is one of the most beautiful places we've had the great fortune to experience, and it is so beautiful that we didn't leave the resort during our entire 3-day stay. From start to finish, every detail was considered, and every need was taken care of. The team is welcoming and kind, and the location is absolutely stunning. While visiting with my partner (our kids left at home), we were keenly aware of how family-friendly the resort is, a pro for the many happy groups around us. If you plan to visit in May as we did, know the water will be fresh (!), and private pools might be too chilly to truly enjoy - though they'll still offer the perfect backdrop for some of the best photos you may ever take! We highly recommend Daios Cove."
"Beautiful ocean view, delicious breakfast, rooms are spacious and clean. Wonderful hotel, quiet and well maintained. We will go back! We loved everything about it!"
