We stayed in the unique suite, and the view from our room of Almyros Beach was absolutely stunning. Our private pool was amazing. The suite was very comfortable and easy to stay cool when it was scorching outside. You can walk to Agios Nikolaos along the beach in about half an hour and then a taxi home later is 10€. The manager Dimitris was so friendly and could not have done more to help us.

Nothing really!

Very friendly staff. Dimitris is a great manager and going the extra mile to make sure the stay is as comfortable as possible for his guests. Clean, easy beach access property with parking and additional services from boat rental to massage.

Nothing

Wonderful location with easy access to the beach; quiet and comfortable; really delicious breakfast and wonderful and kind staff including Dimitris who really helped us with everything.

There was a bit of construction next door while we ate breakfast but nothing too disturbing

Excellent location, right on the beach. Rooms were lovely with our own plunge pool. The new water bottles in our fridge everyday and organising dinner on our late arrival were a great finishing touch. Plus dinner reservations etc. they really look after you. Plus the breakfasts were amazing!

Lovely staff, gave us an early check in free of charge. Nice breakfast in your room. Lovely location and beautiful view from the balcony. Very very clean and lovely suite.

Photos are a little misleading, The plunge pool in the room is very very small. When we booked It wasn’t clear to us that that was the only pool available

Our stay at The Sand Suites was incredible from start to finish - we have never stayed in a place so luxurious and beautiful. We stayed in the Unique Suite with a Private Pool - as soon as we walked into the room we were blown away by the view of the infinity pool and sea view from our room. The decor of the place is modern Scandinavian which feels very light and beachy. The bed was very comfortable and you are provided with all of the toiletries and amenities you need. The little kitchenette could do with more utensils if wanting to cook more of a full meal but otherwise has the essential plates and cutlery you need for light bites. Breakfast is brought to the room every morning which makes it even more relaxing! The selection was varied every day but always included eggs (different ways) and fresh greek produce such as yoghurt and honey. In terms of location, we think Agios Nikolaos in general is a great area to stay - not too touristy but has a good selection of restaurants and shops, as well as enough things to see to keep you busy. We would recommend eating at Piato, Fysalida and Gioma Meze. Also - drinks at Kizmu Sea Lounge is a must! It is a little easier to get around if you have a car, as it allows you to take day trips and experience the Cretan coastline (which is stunning). However, you can take a moderate walk across the beach (which the room provides a private access to) into the centre of Agios Nikolaos….it probably takes around 25 minutes. In any case, a taxi ride is about 5 minutes long and costs around 10 euros one way. If you do take a day trip - Vai Beach is a beautiful little beach to visit. The staff we very friendly and helpful and the rooms were always immaculately clean! We would definitely return.

Although our stay was virtually perfect, it would be great if the seating/lounge area was a bit more cosy and comfortable to slouch into after a long day. This did not really impact our stay though as we were often out and about. Also, we knew we had booked a room with a private pool but there are only a handful with this feature - you should check the type of room you book so that you aren’t disappointed! They all have some type of hot tub, plunge pool or other though.

We had the opportunity to spend ten amazing days at The Sand Suites -- Adults Only in Jul 2022. We had arranged an airport transfer (communication with the property was super-efficient), and when the brown iron gates of The Sand Suites opened, we knew we were in paradise. We stayed in Suite 4, with a plunge pool (a.k.a. cold-water tub :) ) with a spacious L-shaped balcony overlooking Almyros Beach. The apartment was decorated in style, and although we did not spend much time indoors, we enjoyed every minute of it -- partly owing to the Nespresso machine that came as standard equipment, an important asset for the two morning-coffee-craving persons that we are. And then there was Lydia. Lydia's job-title is "Concierge", but she is so much more than that. She is a superb hostess, who made us feel at home straight away. She was prepared with restaurant recommendations, she took care of taxi bookings for us (sometimes quite complicated ones), etc., and she was even kind enough to teach us the most important phrases and expressions in Greek to help us navigate our stay. But not only her, all staff at The Sand Suites was outstanding. The lovely lady who would bring us our sumptuous breakfast in a huge wooden crate every morning and who would service our room while we were out showed the same level of kind professionalism every day. And talking about breakfast: it was something to look forward to every day. Breakfast is served in the room at a pre-agreed time (8.15am was our choice, i.e., the earliest time slot) in a large wooden crate with a hand-written "Kali mera!" (="good morning") note on top. Every day, we would get an egg dish, fresh breads, French-press-style coffee, jam and honey, butter, some sandwich, Greek yoghurt and milk, freshly squeezed orange juice, and some nibbles. TBH, we were also part set for dinner! :)

All the personel was extremely nice, helpful and responded on our questions immediately. Accomodatiom super comfortable and everyday cleaned ( changed towels everyday and they even cleaned our dishes 💕)

the breakfast was tasty but we would like more variety cause it felt like few ingredients were used everyday in different forms :)

Excellent location, Most helpful and pleasent staff Beutiful design Comfortable Nice home made breakfast

2 appartments have a pool. The others - a plunge pool which is not warm.

A gorgeous hotel for a vacation. Modern interior. Great views of the sea and the city. Staff very responsive and helpful, excellent breakfast.
