Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Enorme Santanna Beach is often praised for its modern facilities and very clean environment. Many guests appreciate the spacious rooms, particularly noting room 715, and the convenience of the underpass providing beach access, complete with a beach bar and comfortable sunbeds. The varied selection at dinner is generally well-received; however, a few guests felt the lunch menu could offer more options. The pool area is also a highlight, and the hotel's location near Ierapetra allows for pleasant strolls into town.

Fantastic Stay!

clean hotelspacious roomrequired facilitiesfriendly staff
The hotel was very clean. My room (715) was spacious. The sharing pool was cleaned daily! It had all required facilities. It never felt overcrowded. The beach and sea views were great! The evening food was varied. It had a good selection. Staff were friendly and helpful. Arranging a birthday cake for my son was a lovely touch. They sorted another room on our last day because of a late flight.
Lunch menu could offer slightly more.
