Abaton is a stunningly beautiful hotel. The restaurants offer a great selection of food and drink with something for everyone. All the staff were friendly and helpful. The Buddha bar and the housekeeping staff were excellent. Our Thalasso sea view room was spacious and exceptionally clean, with housekeeping attending twice a day. The hotel, gardens and beaches are very well manicured and maintained. The hotel is on the outskirts of town so it’s a thirty minute walk into the main town or a taxi ride. We had a wonderful relaxing time and wouldn’t hesitate in going back again.

It was my first trip to Greece and I can’t fault it at all. The views were stunning no matter where you were on the resort. Whether it’s a chill out day, spa day or activities, it’s a one stop shop. Also, walking distance from the city so extremely convenient. All staff were incredibly helpful, you were always met with a smile, and no question was too much. Overall, a perfect stay and I’d definitely go back.

We visited this property for our 10 year anniversary. The staff were very friendly and helpful with recommendations for places to visit. The food was amazing. The beach is a little rocky and has a small access area. So not like some of the other beaches however the views are breathtaking. We would definitely stay here again!

If you want a 5 star top notch resort away from the bigger city tourist trap, don't think twice and book this hotel. You will not regret your decision. The food is excellent and on par or slightly lower than you would pay in Los Angeles or other large cities. There is a small town Stalis 1.6km or 1 mile away with great bars and restaurants all along the beach with little shops, and markets, which offer a nice change of scenery and break up the routine from the resort a bit to go grab a local greek dinner. The resort staff is very friendly grom check-in to the beach team to the restaurants. This area of Crete is best for folks wanting to relax and stay close to the resort in my opinion as the other main attractions in form of the famous southern island beaches are over 3.5 hours away and the next bigger city Chania is also about 2.5 hours away. For people wanting to go to those cities and places a hotel closer to those spots is better. However, the Abaton is modern and a rare find and in a class of its own and truly makes for a nice relaxing vacation with its own small sand beach, with plenty of sunchairs, the lively Buddah beach bar and huge pool that easily accommodates the people at the hotel with grrat music and the backdrop of ocean waves and wave sounds. Super happy with the hotel and worth every penny. Great and many different room size and layout choices. Book it !!!!
