Lofos Apartments

The ratings and reviews given to these apartments are fully justified based on the value, location and quality of the all round experience. The rooms and outside areas are as clean as we have ever seen, immaculate and tidy, a real credit to the staff and management team. The location is just perfect, being in the hub of many options offering laid back evenings or full on partying, all within 15-20 minutes walk but none affect the quiet and peaceful location of these apartments. The pool area is just about acceptable for space and beds, maybe at peak times it could get rather cramped but we never experienced too many issues with this. The facilities in the rooms were more than adequate and offered the option to eat in now and again if required, we never did, but can vouch for the items and cutlery etc available. All in all I can safely say the Lofos experience gave us our relaxing break in a quiet location that we were looking for. The only niggly reasons I never gave the full 5 stars, is purely down to a few minor issues...after arriving shattered at around 1.00am after a day of passes, forms and security ,we were made to fill in forms including employment details??..not sure what that's about...but why not wait until the next day perhaps? The buffet breakfast got some getting used to, the quality was bang average which is fine, but the tepid temperature of the hot food was not very appetizing, but I can say I did get to enjoy every breakfast so maybe that's just me!? The air con blew onto the top of a wardrobe in our room and the main unit was on the inside of the balcony, a bit of a pain sipping a cool evening drink with a turbo fan blowing on you from a foot away. As for the recent drinks payment issues we have seen on here, a similar thing actually happened to us when we were overcharged, albeit for 4 beers when we only had 2... hopefully, all of this is just random and coincidence, but we have not had this at any other hotel. We really enjoyed our stay here and Crete in general, but I will say many of the beaches are becoming commercialised and owned by hotel resort or sunbed dictators, a rea shame as the breaches are all relatively small. The airport is not really fit for purpose, so be ready for 1 hour waits for luggage at the conveyor belts. In conclusion, I would highly recommend Lofos Apartments to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway in clean,safe surroundings, we felt it was very good value for the money...many return visitors which paints a picture!

We really love this hotel. Maria and Georgio the owners are so very helpfull and nothing is too much trouble. Their staff are briliant. The hotel is situated in the perfect location for ourselves. We have eaten at the hotel on a number of occasions and the food is exalent. Both for evning meal, dinner and breakfast. The rooms are spotlessly clean and the beds and furnishings are very comfortable. Its almost midway between Hersonissos and Piskopiano. If you want the nightlife go down the hill to Hersonissos, and if you want a quieter time go up the hill to Piskopiano and Koutouloufari. Further down the road is Old Hersonissos Village. Ther are plenty of sunbeds around the pool, which is large enough to swim in comfortably. There are plenty of taxis and car, motobike hire places locally. Its only five minuets walk up hill to the local supermarkets. We have already booked for 2025 for three weeks. Looking forward to meeting up with everyone at the hotel, and the friends we have met over the years.

We stayed for 10 days from 28th September 2024 and had the best holiday. The excellent reviews are so deserved. Maria is the most welcoming and gorgeous lady who instils a sense of calm and the need for you to relax and enjoy your holiday. All the staff are so friendly and make you feel very welcome and part of things. We stayed in a suite with a jacuzzi and then a suite with a pool for 3 days and loved every minute. The place is absolutely spotless. Lunches by the pool were so tasty (partner loved the salads). Maria sorted car hire for us and we spent 3 days exploring a small part of Crete. We fell in love with the island and we will be back. Thank you Maria and the team you are just perfect. Jo & Dom x

Had another wonderful holiday at Lofos. The staff cannot do enough for you. This time we had an apartment with a terrace, it was lovely to chat to people walking by while we were chilling. Just one request, our appt was for 2, and it would be lovely to change the indoor, square table for a small round one (less bruising when you walk past, especially at night)

we arrived at the lofos apartments really looking forward to our relaxing holiday. we went into our room and we liked what we saw, the shower was lovely and that was it really. the beds was hard.the best bit was the sunset from our balcony that was amazing. the next morning we was going out to the beach and we was stopped by one of the waitress to pay a bar bill, which we already had paid the night before, but she said we owed an outstanding bill for the drinks, i said we had paid .anyway she said ok no problems, but it did annoy me saying we hadn't paid for the drinks, so that put a damper on the holiday. i don't like being accused of something i hadn't done. you couldn't get a sun lounger round the pool because people were putting there towels on them and not coming back for hrs on end. didn't like that either. wouldn't come back.

Like the other reviews say this hotel is a special find. Warm friendly welcome from the beginning to the end. Genuine warmth from every person throughout our stay. Will definitely return. Thanks so much to all at Lofos apts. We will spread the word.
