이카로스 비치 리조트 & 스파 - 어른 전용

A lot positive. The property is generally lovely with great views and a few terrific bars in particular. The views of the beach from bars and restaurants are also incredible. Crete is full of lovely places and this is one. But there are issues. The lunch buffet was akin to a packed cruise ship, and I passed on even eating it. It’s a risk with any all inclusive but it was disappointing. We had a suite with its own pool and view of the ocean. It was nice but calling it five stars would be unfair. Crete has many elite properties and this one is nice but the competition is real. It was also frustrating at check in I asked abt our view. Some are ocean front and some you can SEE the ocean with obstructions from and my question was basically dismissed as dumb, ie, you got what you booked. That doesn’t happen at a five star where they are trying to ensure the best match possible. Both of us were a little taken aback. It may have been a joke or a language barrier but at the front desk at check in? Again a lot of positives and a mixed review.

During our stay at Hotel Ikaros in Crete, we had dinner a few times at the hotel’s Italian restaurant. Each time, we were helped by Maria, who provided friendly and attentive service. As a vegetarian, it can be tricky to find suitable options, but Maria took the time to check with the kitchen and made sure everything was clear and suitable. It was much appreciated. Overall, professional and helpful service. Thanks, Maria.
