I had the great fortune to stay here for a week with my friend, who had been here 4 times prior to this . It was so beautifully laid out along the beach it had 3 pools ? Several restaurants, a spa and a gym . We were upgraded to a junior suite with such a beautiful view of the beach . The room was lovely , very spacious and very clean . The staff were all so lovely .And nothing was top much trouble. A special shout out to Socrates the barman in the pool bar , he was hilarious and great fun . The food was amazing in the Asian fusion restaurant and Maria was lovely . She remembered my friend from her previous stays and greeted her warmly. They even had a Cat Cafe where the guests could feed the local cats , which really meant a lot to me as I love cats. Everything was perfect. The only small downside was the channels on the TV..they were all in German The majority of people that stay there are German, they were all very quiet and pleasant, but it would have been nice to have a couple of English channels for when we got back to our room in the evening.

“Outstanding”

Beautiful Hotel which is so well kept indeed. The views of the sea are amazing especially when the Sun goes down. Food is exceptionally good for a Greek Hotel. The Service is impeccable.

Beautiful Hotel which is so well kept indeed. The views of the sea are amazing especially when the Sun goes down. Food is exceptionally good for a Greek Hotel. The Service is impeccable. We had some issues with the House Keeper and our room, however it was put right immediately. So for that reason this Hotel is a 5 score. Plenty of bars and restaurants in the area too. Thankyou for a wonderful Holiday

“Fantastic family hotel”

Just returned from 10 nights at Alexander, family of 4 with two young children. This is an excellent hotel. Very authentic in style, you feel like you are within a quaint Greek Village. The food is great and varied, the staff are excellent, and the whole place is so clean and quiet. The rooms are … more

Just returned from 10 nights at Alexander, family of 4 with two young children. This is an excellent hotel. Very authentic in style, you feel like you are within a quaint Greek Village. The food is great and varied, the staff are excellent, and the whole place is so clean and quiet. The rooms are spacious with everything that you need, and the ladies in the kids club were great with our kids. Couple of points - The kids pool was not as we saw in the pictures online, it has been scaled back and is a little boring. The spa was a massive rip off, 150 Euros for a 50 minute massage! More expensive than a plush London hotel. I found the spa prices quite insulting actually. But, the spa aside, this is an amazing hotel and I would very happily return one day.

“A Beautiful Hotel But The Lack Of A Lift Was A Bit Of A Problem”

The Alexander Beach Hotel is an outstanding hotel with very much to recommend it. We had a first floor comfort room with sea view which was indeed extremely comfortable and well appointed, and the view across the bay from our balcony was stunning. In fact, the whole resort which we understand is intended to have the feel of a Cretan village is well laid out and very attractive in design with colourful gardens and green spaces, multiple swimming pools and access to the resort’s well maintained sandy beach. The quality of the food in the main restaurant was excellent with a wide range of options at breakfast and dinner and for someone who does not eat meat I never had a problem in filling my plate! Having stopped for 10 days we got the impression that the diverse choice at dinner perhaps rotated every 7 days so there was certainly no food boredom! Added to this were three specialty restaurants – Mediterranean, Italian and Asian. We ate once in the Asian restaurant, a memorably good evening. Finally, the hotel staff whether at reception, in the restaurant, in a bar or making up our room were always courteous, friendly and efficient. Absolutely no complaints. They all served us very well! However, if we do have a disappointment, it is that there was no lift: and for those like us for whom staircases are becoming an issue it was a bit of a problem. From our room on the first floor, there was a flight of stairs down to the ground floor where reception, the main restaurant, lounges and a bar were located, another flight of stairs down to the gym, spa and WCs, and also to the Mediterranean restaurant, swimming pools and sunbathing area, and finally another flight of stairs (or was it two) down to the beach. My wife never got to the beach! There were some short ramps and I was told that wheelchairs were available, but even with one of them I believe access to certain parts of the hotel may have been at least difficult if not restricted. Forgetting this issue, we had a wonderful holiday, but regrettably without a lift we would certainly think twice about going back to this beautiful hotel again.
