A wonderful hotel. Beautiful, relaxing and excellent attentive staff. They even arranged for a last minute breakfast for us to take on our early morning ferry which was packed with many items. The cats around the hotel add a unique charm and I’m not even a cat person yet we adored them tremendously as they greeted us throughout our stay. If you need a driver, the hotel arranged Dimitri and he was fantastic. Highly recommend.

The property was peaceful and serene. The staff were incredible and very hospitable, we absolutely enjoyed our time at Pnoe. The resort was clean and up to date. Definitely should consider dinner at the resort’s restaurants, the food was fresh and locally sourced. Would recommend if you’re looking to disconnect and be pampered.

Pone, was incredible. An easy park if your drive in, to staff that welcomed you with a refreshing drink on arrival, once checked in we are given beautiful bracelets as a gift, welcome snacks and desserts, of course a local bottle of wine. Our room was exquisite with a gorgeous relaxing private pool, the spa, was so relaxing, as we opted to do the most minimal as we had a time crunch. But still left having the best experience, zero gravity massage, hyperbolic oxygen machine, sauna, steam, salt room, and an incredible contrast therapy water shower. A MUST when in Heraklion, if you have the time stay here before you take a ferry to Santorini, it’s an easy 7
Min ride to the ferry.

Unbeatable service and perfect sunsets
The balance between relaxed and thoroughly attentive service is very well delivered. They went above and beyond with several touches.
The room with the private pool was perfect but the highlight was the amazing food and drinks served in beautifully chilled surroundings. Always plenty of space to get a bed by the pool or the beach. The beach was a particular highlight - the hotel has a private spot next to a public beach which gives it a nice atmosphere. The sunsets watching planes land were fantastic.
As a couple we usually never eat in the hotel but the food was so good and varied we only ventured out one night. The seafood was especially delicious.

Oct 5, 2024
The Hotel is really nice and service has been good. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room is equipped with everything you need. The private pool is really a nice advantage.
However the storage space is rather limited in the Breeze Suite. Next time we would book the Breathe Suite which seems to have a little dressing room. Both restaurants are good. You have a nice variety of dishes in case you book the half-board. Especially the breakfast is really outstanding.
What we didn’t like about the restaurant was the dresscode for dinner. Usually 5* Hotels enforce a dresscode for dinner. Which usually requires long trousers for men and closed shoes. However at no one seemed to care. Guests wore shorts and Flip Flops for dinner. This is quite disappointing for a hotel of this category.
