Product Details

Pool

This hotel was an Adults Only, since we are 84 & 81 years old (although most people were 20 to 6o's) we were looking for a relaxing holiday near to a town, such Chania Old Town, since we rented a small car to get about, it was one of the best hotels we have ever stayed at. The Staff were all wonderful & very helpful. Our room was in the main building overlooking the pool and the sea and we were upgraded to a superior room. The cleanlyness was exceptional both in our room and around the hotel. The food was very good, we had half board and the breakfast was excellant with plenty of choice for all tastes. The catering was managed by Antonis, who was really nice to my wife. We particularly would like to mention Andreas our waiter on most occasions, always smiling and helpful. When we arrived, whist the room was ideal, unfortunately, to get into the shower it was fitted in the bath and my wife had difficulty in getting in over the edge. We spoke to Reception and Fofini (Fofi) immediately offered us another room in the new annex across the road. We said we loved the room and asked if a step could be provided and Fofi said give her 24 hours and she would solve it. The next day, a step had been constructed covered in towels (that were changed every day) that solved the problem perfectly. Our return flight was at 23.15 and Fofi arranged another room to shower and change. All in all 5 stars in all catagories

Wonderful Hotel in Agia Marina, near to Chania Old Town

Me and my husband have just arrived home from a 7 night stay at Atlantica Amalthia. On arrival at 1am, we were shown to our room, where we had 2 bottles of water waiting in the fridge for us. We opted for a garden view room which was private, clean and comfortable, but it also dated and in need of some modernisation. We also found that the bathroom floor flooded whenever we showered. For these reasons, I have given a rating of 4/5.
However, the positives outweighed the negatives. Firstly, staff were very friendly and helpful. The pool areas were very nice and the sunbeds were incredibly comfy. We were glad that we had the option of 3 pools and the beach! 
Breakfast was really good, even for picky eaters! There were a selection of pastries (savoury and sweet), meats (cold and cooked), cheeses, eggs, bread, fruit, cereals and yogurts. Oh and Prosecco with breakfast on Sundays!
Finally, our flight home wasn’t until midnight so we enquired at reception about a late check out. We were informed that this was possible but we would have to move rooms. So at 11am on our final day, we checked out and moved to another room straight away, no waiting around. This cost €70 and our checkout was at 7pm. This made our last day a lot more enjoyable and comfortable, especially for me as I struggle with some health problems. 
Overall, we enjoyed our holiday and would stay here again!

A nice break in the sun

From the moment we checked in staff were very friendly. Hotel immaculately kept, we upgraded to a sea view room which was across the road in the newer part of the hotel, accessed by a bridge , lots of steps to get to our room 855 but lifts available. Room modern and comfortable, safe was available at no extra charge. Swimming pools lovely, 3 in total, 2 in newer block and 1 on the beach side. Buffet breakfast with plenty of choice, albeit some dishes a bit strange at breakfast but you won’t go hungry. We chose to go half board and dinner in evening is served at the beach front restaurant and is A la Carte, all restaurant staff looked after us extremely well and food was first class, special mention to Andreas who was very attentive.
Chania is easily accessible by bus  €2 each way, buses get very busy and sometimes if full don’t stop but buses seem to come about every 15-20 mins.
We hired a car from the hotel who gave us recommendations on where to visit which was very useful and we saw some beautiful places. This hotel is a lovely hotel on a sandy beach and is well located for touring the island.

Honest Review

We stayed for 7 nights from 4th of October in this beautiful hotel. It is welcoming, clean and well located.
The rooms had huge amounts of very clever storage. Breakfast was delicious and not too busy or rushed.
Staff were always cheerful and helpful. We stayed in room 658 in the new annexe, overlooking one of the pools. The area is safe and there are some lovely tavernas up the hill by the side of the petrol station. We walked to the War Museum in Platanias and took a bus to the German Cemetry in Maleme, both were really interesting. 
Unusually for us, we have booked to go again next October and are already counting the days!

Fabulous Hotel

We were at the "Old" side and have a tiny room with balcony. The lock of the balcony door was broken, but it would be waste of time to say about it: sure some others have done it before but nothing happened. Last days of season, so they have to change whole lock...
But anyway it was second floor and we didnt left any property at the room, so we let it be. And still it safe in Greece.
Hotel pool was not so clean and sunbeds were also dirty, we had our own big towels so it was okey. Beach area was clean and sunbeds quite good, but it cost 10 e a day, then you got 2 water bottle, fresh towel (2 day of 7) and some fruits if you were just on time.There should be a sign for other people that its 16+ and only hotel customers: outside people just come there and let children run and play beside hotell guests, not funny at all.
Breakfast was very good and plenty of different kind of food to take.
Staff were so tired and they started to say goid morning when we were saying, try to learn them to smile also, but only one could do that (the female). Reception persons were helpfull. Food at the pool bar/restaurant was okey, but one time have a hair in club sandwich.
We have been now twice but not third time.

Too much stars.

Located directly on the sandy beach of Agia Marina, this modern hotel is 9 km from Chania. The water is shallow for approximately 30 m, making it an ideal place for families. One can swim to the protected islet of Thodorou where traditional Cretan goats live. The hotel offers 62 rooms, currency exchange, WIFI, outdoor pool with children's section, playground, medical assistance, bicycle rental, car hire and free on-site parking. Wheelchair accessible.
