We stayed in one of the private pool suites and it was simply amazing!
If you're looking for peace and quiet, that's the place to be...
Breathtaking sunsets by the pool and one of the best restaurants we've experienced in Crete. Fantastic food, even harmonizing with different olive oils (which we later bought). A true gourmet experience!
But above all, the STAFF! The friendliest people, making sure at all times we were safe (due to COVID) and well taken care of.
Would definitely recommend and book it again!

Almost perfect, except for suites
This place has one weakness and that is the condition of the suites, or in particular our suite #1 garden view studio. From the first time entering the room it had a wet musty smell and after examining the room it makes sense. It has moisture issues from two sources. There is water moisture coming through the concrete wall which is underneath the air conditioner unit. Outside there is water seepage from the units and it is draining into the ground and then absorbing through the wall. The paint is cracked and warped inside as it is trying to come through. The second source is the bathroom which only has a tiny window for ventilation, no fan. So the water moisture has a hard time escaping and also goes into the bedroom area.
The rest of the facilities and location is 5 star though. The breakfast was plentiful and satisfying albeit not very special, although they have great fresh smoothie juices. They have an on-site restaurant all day which you can even use after checking out. There are not any other local sources of food so this is good.
The pool area is fantastic and well planned out with powerful jets in the main pool too. However, the hot tub jets are too powerful and make it unpleasant.
There is a bay and dock you can go swimming from. Beautiful water, it seemed warmer than the pool. You would want water shoes though or just use the dock to swim from as the beach area is rocky.
All in all we would not come back unless the suite is better.

Amazing location, relaxing and restful.....
The Kavos Beach is situated on a rugged, scenic coastline with sea views as far as you can see, and a lovely breeze while by the pool. The pool was delightful, quiet and relaxing with very helpful staff who bought drinks to you when you ordered at the bar, this was not expected and added to their ethos that nothing is too much for trouble for the staff at the Kavos Hotel.
Location is remote, and if you like to walk - great. Otherwise, hire a car, we didn't and walked which we enjoyed and then took taxi's into Chania a few evenings to enjoy the hustle and bustle of a coastal city - don't miss Chania its fab!

Loved it!
Stunning location! Car needed! Shop 5min drive. Beautiful location to chill out. Nice breakfast. But lunch was first come first serve....so regularly ran out of food... Had a "kitchenette" in half our wardrobe...so we managed with lunch.... Local restaurants were reasonable.... Chania 25min drive (not sure how much by taxi).....worth it for the beauty of the place! every turn was a new adventure!

An Absolute Paradise!
Felt like I was in an oasis. Beautiful new facilities, stunning pool with poolside hot shower. Lots of sunbathing spots and so close to the beach you can hear the waves from your room. Good breakfast and you can order delivery from local Staff are helpful and friendly. Hiring a car from them was easy and value for money-you will need to a car to enjoy as much as you can around the area. Room was very clean with a small kitchenette. Make sure to bring mosquito repellant if you're prone to insect bites!

Great view, staff and facilities
We stayed one night before our departure flight. The staff were very helpful and accommodating. The facilities were excellent and the view very nice. There are no restaurants within walking distance but the staff can give recommendations for restaurants within a 5 minute drive or help you order delivery.

Good facilities but remote
This is a nice hotel on the coast with sea views. The amenities are good, including a pool and well appointed rooms.
However the hotel is about 15 minutes drive from Chiania which means you need to have a car in order to easily access the sights. It also makes it that much further to be able to drive to other locations on the island.
