Not a 5* hotel or Service
Reviewed By E1010WRryanhYou really only need to look at the responses to reviews from the management team to understand how this hotel is run and managed. Positives are an amazing location, and beautiful views. Beach and close enough to other towns that you can get a cab. Staff that are there are hard working and helpful. I'm not sure where to start on the hotel though. This is no longer a 5* hotel, the reviews, pictures are very misleading. The grounds and rooms are run down and don't appear to have been restored and cleaned since the re-opening (we stayed in a Superior Room, Sea View Balcony which by the looks of the Hotels responses we do not have enough money to stay at this hotel because we should of payed for a better one). So if you're not buying a Suite or something better you're not getting a good standard of room. View was amazing though. The food. The buffet was very disappointing and underwhelming, almost a first come first served style as if you turned up later than 8 for dinner it was slim pickings and the same at Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. Choices were ok but only half the food was labelled. Because they're heavily understaffed getting a drink within the "all inclusive" model was painful and most nights we would only have 1 drink with food as there was no waiters tending tables. We gave up after 4 visits to the buffet and found alternatives outside the hotel. The al a carte options available were varied BUT they use a voucher/coupon system, we were given 3 vouchers but the restaurants were apparently already at capacity until our last night so we weren't even able to use them. You had to get in a queue at 10:30am to book the restaurants which took an hour so I can't tell you how good or bad they are. What I can say is that when we turned up for the buffet at 8:30 there was plenty of space in these restaurants. In a 5* hotel I would not be expecting limitations like this and such a poorly executed system of vouchers where you can't even go to the restaurants anyway! This was one of the reasons we booked. I would understand only being able to go to each one once even but we could not even do this. We did do the "village experience" which was one of the options and although food was good this was off-site in the local village of Milatos, we had to share tables and food and didn't even have a menu, we were only allocated 1 drink each after that you had to pay (all inclusive). Would not recommend, I'd just go and visit Milatos and enjoy your meal in the ordinary fashion, great idea but again poorly executed. The Bars. Again understaffed, you are queuing for everything, you only get free drinks until 23:00 and then you have to pay for it in this all inclusive 5* experience, not much entertainment laid on either. We stopped going to the bars on day 3 of 7 and just went out in the evening to Milatos, Sissi and Malia. But this obviously means taxi fares etc. The pools, general maintenance and cleanliness of the hotel were again poor, talking to other guests we were hearing some very interesting stories, again you can see a lot of this in other reviews. Some of the recent 5* reviews I'm reading are either fake or have been paid to do so or they've never been on a 5* all inclusive holiday before. We have seen they partnered with an agency who flew in some Instagram influencers. So if you have loads of social media followers then you will probably have a fantastic stay. We spoke to a lot of guests that had the same feeling as us, it gave the guests a lot to talk about for the wrong reasons. The management seemed to shrug off complaints talking about how good value the rooms and what people had paid to be there but that's not how these things work. The lack of care and accountability was shocking. You can see this in the responses. We were very disappointed overall, I will not be returning to this hotel and would not recommend it unless you are looking for an expensive bed and breakfast and are planning to skip breakfast or if you have a passion for queuing. If you have already booked then I hope it's gets better as there were people there looking in to the issues and trying to change this, the last day there seemed to be more staff but I can only comment on the 7 days I spent in the hotel - again just read the responses to reviews. If it still hasn't improved, I would recommend; No Name Bar in Milatos which is only a 10 minute walk from the beach where George and his team were fantastic at Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Drinks and any of the fish Restaurants. Sissi has plenty of great restaurants and bars which the hotel offers a transfer too and from and Malia old town - any restaurant is fantastic.

CRETE: lovely traditional Cretan holiday
Reviewed By TurfQueenThis was our third stay in Angelika aparthotel in September. Buffet breakfast is included in price. We had open plan studio apartment which includes air con, kitchenette with a 2 ring electric hob, fridge with ice compartment, crockery, cutlery and pots and pans. Housekeeping come in every third day to change sheets and towels. The bed was very comfy too! This hotel is very clean and well kept. Staff are very friendly and helpful. There is also a pool and a bar, with entertainment on Saturday's. MILATOS small beach and harbour is less than 10 minutes walk. Very close by are fish and other taverns overlooking the sea. Milatos is 3km walk along the coastal path to SISSI, another small traditional area, with shops and taverns. If you don't fancy the walk, with the great views, taxis are available. We hire a quad bike in SISSI (from GENESIS bike hire) because it's half the price than the hire place next to big hotel Raddison Blu, a 15 minute walk from Milatos beach. If you're looking for a quiet break with local Greek people then stay here.

We would like to welcome you to the historic village of Milatos and to Socrates apartments. We are a family business with a lot of passion and love for our job. The 16 years that we run our business make us proud and grateful for the love we receive from our guests for our services.

Warm welcome to the seaside
Reviewed By CathyJ966We found the perfect place to slow right down and stare at the blue blue Aegean. Milatos Beach is a world away from the commercial beach strip between Heraklion and Malia, but still close to Malia and Sisi, and even Agios Nikolaos and Plaka, which was a great day trip. Our apartment was sparkling clean and had everything we needed, including a balcony and air conditioning. The most important features of Socrates are the warm welcome of Yiorgos (George), the great setting of the restaurant and the generous and delicious food cooked by his mother, who is there from breakfast onwards. We had an array of specials and all the traditional fare and always ate more than we intended. I can absolutely imagine people going back each year to wind down and be welcomed back to this little paradise.

Nice hotel close to the beach
Reviewed By Sofie KThis hotel has a lovely garden with so nice plants and flowers around the apartments. It's simple and basic rooms with lots of space. Some things could be fixed better but the owner seemed like a genuinely loving man with a kind heart. The taverna which is together with the hotel has good food and they treat you with some small dishes to try. You might want to have a car here because there is not so much in the village. The beach is just across the street from this hotel. Thank you Nekatarios for the stay!

8. Kiveli Apartments
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 16 reviews
: Kiveli apartments are located at Milatos a quiet and small fishing village almost at the middle of Crete. It is very close to the most known places of Crete like Knossos , Lassithi Plateau, Agios Nikolaos , Malia ,Hersonissos, Sissi and Stalida So it is easy to visit all these places .In front of the property there is a plot with grass and deck chairs for sun tanning and just in front of this there is a small sandy beach safe for even small children . The apartments are surrounded by a beautifull garden Tavernas & shops is 2’ min walk from the apartments
Mr Toumba
Reviewed By Theo T"Value for money & lovely views " Really liked the character of Kiveli apartments. Very traditional, nicely decorated & charming with a traditional Cretan garden. A lovely small clean sandy beach with small fishing boats on our door step. Quiet picturesque village great for relaxation. Many decent restaurants by the coast. The hosts Maria & Vangelis were welcoming & hospitable.
