This beautiful hotel is situated in an excellent location overlooking the sea, just 25 mins drive from Heraklion airport. The staff are all very friendly, helpful and all of them work extremely hard to cater to their guests every need. Apart from the tranquillity and the amazing views, the best thing about this hotel is the fact that it has just the right number of rooms to provide its guests with the space needed to enjoy it without ever feeling overcrowded. You'll never struggle to get a sunbed during the day or a table for dinner, even during peak season. I would definitely recommend the Pela Mare to anyone visiting the area.

Everyone around here are extremely friendly and helpful. Especially Sofia, Giorgios and Antonio at the reception were eager to provide you the necessary information about Crete. Housekeeper Poppy is exceptionally wonderful. Maria at the breakfast bar is always happy to help. Only one thing I must mention about the room we had was obstructing the sea view by the breakfast bar. Of course that was compensated by the morning sunrise view from our balcony.

We absolutely loved our 2 night stay at Pela Mare. What a hidden gem. The views from the hotel are stunning and can be enjoyed from your balcony or the pool. The staff were friendly and professional. The breakfast was surprisingly good and included hot options. The cocktails were really excellent! Restaurant food pretty good. The only downside was the immediate area, Agia Pelagia wasn’t a great place with a very small, crowded beach with the restaurants and bars right on top of it. We chose to spend most of our time at the hotel since it was so lovely. We had a family suite which was perfect for us and 2 children (8 and 6). I would definitely recommend staying here and using as a base to travel around or for a short stay.

Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt. Das Hotel, gerade die Außenanlagen ist sehr schön. Die Gastronomie, vor allem das Frühstücksbuffet war auch sehr gut und abwechslungsreich. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Mit einem Auto, welches kostenfrei geparkt werden kann, konnte man die Gegend gut erkunden. Alles in allem hat es uns sehr gut gefallen. Wir kommen bestimmt wieder. :)

Das Hotel „Pela Mare“ war für uns (Elternteil mit 2 Teenagern) super. Großer, wirklich großer Pool, der täglich gereinigt wird, genügend Liegen und sehr schöne Rasenfläche. Gigantischer Ausblick auf das Umland und die beiden Buchten! Der Weg zu den Buchten beträgt zu Fuß bergab rund 15 Minuten, für den Rückweg haben wir abends dann aber ein Taxi genommen (hatten keinen Mietwagen). Der Preis hierfür war völlig okay! Das Frühstück wird am Pool in Buffetform angeboten und ist sehr abwechslungsreich! Mittags gibt es dort auch kleine Snacks, für ein Abendessen muss man aber entweder ein wenig zum nächsten Restaurant laufen (ca. 5 Minuten). Zimmer sind „einfach“ aber sehr sauber, verfügen über eine Klimaanlage und einen Safe und werden alle 2 Tage gereinigt. Kühlschrank ist vorhanden!! Wir waren sehr zufrieden!!

Era il mio quarto soggiorno in tre anni ed era sempre andato tutto bene. Se provate a selezionare qualunque camera per una o due persone, noterete che la differenza di prezzo fra single e double occupancy e' di 3 o 5 EUR. Io avevo prenotato e pagato una Junior Suite single occupancy e poi ho comunicato che volevo modificare a double occupancy. Mi hanno chiesto di pagare una rack rate di 35 EUR a notte per la seconda persona, quando in realta' non c'e' mai un tale supplemento . Quando ho provato a spiegarglielo Giorgos alla reception mi ha urlato in faccia dicendo che non intendeva discutere oltre, quando era chiaro anche facendo una simulazione online che la differenza fra single e double occupancy era al massimo di 5 EUR. Sono rimasta molto delusa e naturalmente non ci tornero' mai piu' per il modo in cui sono stata trattata.

It was a nice time at Pela mare hotel, the ambience is lovely and quiet for a family relaxation. What is unique about the Property is the aerial view, the wonderful Greek culture and amazing staff. My stay was okay until my check out time and was slammed with an unplanned bill which was based on not passing information correctly. Information should be decimated properly and detailed accordingly because language barrier is imminent. But overall it's not bad for a family stay. The management should look into ways of passing information in order not to put client in a tight situation that can be avoidable. It was a wonderful visit to Pela Agia and Pela mare hotel made it worth the while ....
