We are just about to end a wonderful stay at Cavo Spada and I couldn’t recommend it highly enough! From the moment we arrived, the staff were absolutely fantastic – warm, friendly, and always going out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. Their positive approach really made a huge difference the whole experience. This is a smaller hotel than we’ve typically chosen in the past, but that actually turned out to be one of its biggest strengths. It meant everything felt more personal and peaceful, and while we did entertain ourselves a little more during the day, the setting made it so easy to unwind. We had a private pool, which was a real treat, and for the first time ever on holiday, there was no stress over sun loungers! There were always plenty available, with loads of space around – no early morning towel dashes from other guests I have seen in the past. Honestly, I’ve never experienced that level of relaxation around the pool area before. The hotel offers three restaurants, all serving delicious food with top-notch service. Again the staff are amazing! While the beach right next to the hotel is pebble, it’s still a lovely spot to sit and watch the waves, and there are plenty of excursions available nearby, with Chania just a short journey away. We found that there was plenty to explore both in and out of the hotel. For those into fitness, the gym is excellent – clean, well-equipped, and better than many hotel gyms we’ve seen before. Overall, my family and I absolutely loved our time at Cavo Spada. It’s a peaceful, well-run, and welcoming place – perfect for a relaxing holiday. But what really does make it stand out are the staff! We’ll definitely be recommending it to friends and family, and would happily return ourselves!

Excellent and quiet hotel, great staff (thank you Antonis!), good food and great service. Very happy with our stay. The room was clean and the location near the beach was very nice. The only minus was the 20-30 minute car distance to Chania. Everything else was great :)

We came here for our birthday we needed a week of relaxation. As a hotel worker in uk myself this hotel offers so much. The staff from checking in.lady with dark hair and pony tail in reception looked after me and my fiancé all week my birthday was 6th and his 10th. We both got a birthday cake it was amazing. This hotel is super clean. We had room 102 which was a swim up room. Totally best room in the hotel we think. In the restaurant Antonio was amazing. He was there day and night looking after all the guests. Such a credit to this hotel. I can’t have a single bad review. I will deffo return here. If you want a week of relaxation this is the hotel. Not much around tbh but you can get bus to Chania for less than 3 euros. Chania is beautiful and only 50 mins from the hotel. Kolymbari is only 15 mins but very quiet. There is absolutely nothing around here but totally quite amazing hotel with some entertainment at night. But mostly the daytime is fantastic Georgina in pool bar is brilliant super friendly such a big credit to this hotel. Overall I would give this hotel 5/5 - I would deffo recommend this hotel if you fancy a week of relaxation.

This hotel is so luxurious and spacious and the staff cannot do enough for you. The big clean pool is next to the beach and sun beds in the grass make a perfect combination. Plenty of space to sit and relax. The sports facilities are more than I have ever seen with a wellness retreat here making the most of them all. The spa has a nice indoor pool and I had an excellent massage. The food has plenty of choice and the dining areas are lovely including an Al la carte and a beach bar. The rooms are cleaned twice a day and products replaced and good quality. Hotel rooms are all with balcony and big and no more than 3 stories high. There are pool side rooms and more private ones with private pools. The bars all make good cocktails and all have nice coffee and plenty of staff and never a wait. Staff also remember what you normally order.

We had a lovely time here at this hotel! It was very relaxing being next to the poolside and having a very short walk to the beach. The food was great and offered good selections especially as I am a vegetarian. The staff were really accommodating and welcoming.

Superb hotel set within its own grounds. If you need a quiet getaway without crowned pool or sea this is the place. Food service & quality is excellent. Hard working staff with an excellent positive attitude to help guests. Will be returning back in June 2026. A big thank you to all your hard working staff, most appreciated

We booked the Ultra All Inclusive package, which meant we could try all the à la carte restaurants and special meals. That said, even without it, we would have happily spent 7 nights enjoying the main buffet — the food was excellent. The UAI package also included a complimentary 45-minute spa treatment each, which was a real treat. We both had a scrub and massage and loved it. We ended up using the spa several more times — it’s gorgeous. Although the hotel was apparently at full capacity, it never felt crowded. The huge lagoon pool rarely had more than 10 people in it at once. Yes, the beach is rocky — but just bring beach shoes and embrace not getting covered in sand. For us, it was perfect. The staff are outstanding. Every single person we met was warm, friendly, and nothing was too much trouble. Vasilia in Guest Relations deserves a special mention — she seemed to be everywhere at once and is such an asset to the hotel — but honestly, all the staff are a credit to the place. We took the local bus into Chania one day. It was less than €4 each way (and you can pay by card). Really straightforward and well worth doing. Vasilia mentioned she welcomes constructive criticism, so we thought hard… the only thing we could suggest was a faster toaster at breakfast! That said, I ended up having some nice chats while waiting for my toast, so hardly a hardship. Tip: bring a game for the evenings. The bar area was lively, with lots of people playing cards and board games, and the hotel had some available to borrow too.
