Casa D'Irene Deluxe Hotel

That said, I do think the price is a bit high for what the hotel offers. The breakfast was okay, but serving instant coffee instead of proper coffee made a noticeable difference. I also extended my stay because I needed to work the following day, but unfortunately there was a power outage for almost the entire day. I understand that outages happen, but for a hotel in this price range, I would expect some kind of backup generator. Parking is also a little tricky. There is parking within walking distance, but getting in and out can be a bit difficult. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and appreciated how kind the staff were. I would consider staying again, but only if the price was lower, as I don't think the current rate quite matches the location and overall value offered.

The breakfast service begins at 8:30, which is a bit late for guests who start their day early, such as hikers. An earlier start time, around 7:00, would be much appreciated.

The hotel itself is beautiful and clearly new, from its furniture to the pool, bar, and breakfast area. What truly made our stay, however, was the absolutely amazing and friendly staff, especially the receptionists and the main waiter (a charming, older gentleman). They were incredibly helpful, even lending us a sun umbrella and beach towels, which was a huge plus! The location is also really convenient for visiting Ballos, Fallassarna and Elafonissi, being pretty much on the center for everything. While I still rated the hotel a perfect 10, there were a couple of downsides worth mentioning. Parking Troubles First, the hotel's free parking was incredibly difficult to access. The entrance featured a narrow, long, downhill road, making it quite challenging. We opted to park on the street across from the hotel instead, which was much easier, though you'll need a bit of luck to find a spot. I'd highly recommend parking outside rather than risking the hotel's complicated lot. Disappointing Dinner Experience However, the most significant negative was the dinner service. The hotel boasts an amazing outdoor kitchen, which, ironically, serves an incredible breakfast. Curious, we decided to try their dinner/restaurant options one evening, and it was a major letdown. The prices were as high as any top restaurant in the area, but the quality was terrible. For example, we ordered tzatziki, which arrived as plain yogurt with a splash of olive oil—no parsley, no mint, no cucumbers, literally just yogurt. My girlfriend ordered a macaroni lasagna that was clearly frozen and microwaved, not cooked fresh. At 12 euros, this was insane, especially considering the fantastic food offered by other local restaurants. We also tried appetizers like a spinach pie snack, which was also clearly just heated in a microwave, arriving even hotter than the lasagna. Recommendation My recommendation to the hotel would be to either discontinue the dinner service (as its current quality could negatively impact overall reviews) or significantly improve the dish quality and lower prices. Despite these issues, the hotel itself is amazing, and the staff are genuinely the best I've ever encountered

Such a peaceful place near to everything you will need! Rooms are clean, spacious, and quiet. Staff is very welcoming, they have a big smile on their face. Perfect for couples and families ( we are a family with kids, staying at room 204 direct access to the pool area). Greek coffee at the breakfast was perfect, the breakfast had healthy choices, which I loved. We definitely will recommend this place to our friends and family! Nothing

The hotel is beautifully designed, with a super aesthetic. Staff was great, super helpful and friendly. The breakfast was diverse and delicious. Our room even had a small kitchen area, which we didn't use during our stay, but would be great for families with smaller kids. Our plan when booking was to use the hotel as a base to explore the nearby beaches and cities, while still having a comfortable and welcoming place to return to each day. Casa D'Irene absolutely met our expectations, providing both convenience and a touch of luxury. One highlight of our trip was the nearby restaurant, which served some of the best food we had during our stay. Since we traveled a bit late in the season, the pool and terrace didn’t get much sun during the day, which made the pool water too cold to fully enjoy. Additionally, the parking situation could be improved. Although it’s great that the hotel offers parking, it’s not the most convenient, especially considering the remote location where having a car is quite handy.

Superb

Very friendly staff, good breakfast, modern facilities with a heated swimming pool. Comfortable beds and good location.

We loved everything, the staff is very friendly and willing to help you, the rooms are clean and if you’re looking for a place away from the bustling noise this hotel is your place. A small paradise

Everything was perfect. The room, the food and the staff. Perfect position to visit Falasarna, Balos and Elafonissi

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The rooftop (pool, bar and eating area) is very pleasant and well kept. Nice breakfast. Quiet location. The room we got was too small for a family of 4, very little space for storing things, clothes and towels, and worst than all no outward windows ! Very little view from rooftop.

Loooooved the studio. Very nice and modern. Good breakfast. Location is OK if you have a car.

Staff were so friendly . Breakfast was delicious and chilling . Room was lovely everything you needed

Very beautiful place, clean and very friendly staff. Hotel with surprising architecture! The surrounding mountain brings an incredible atmosphere and at the same time it is close to Falarsana beach. Many taverns nearby and especially if you are there, don't miss the Spiliios tavern (wonderful sunset, the best Greek cuisine and spectacular staff). I will definitely be back to spend more days!

Exceptional

Everything! Beautiful and comfortable rooms in a small little town in Crete, close to the best beaches and restaurants. Thank you to the amazing staff for all your recommendations and your kindness. We are definitely coming back!!

Amazing breakfast ✨

The hotel features a beautiful top floor with a well-stocked bar, super comfy sun loungers, beautiful swimming pool and great music!!! (Courtesy of DJ Irene). The room was spacious with nice shower and comfy bed with a good air con. The cleaners are so friendly and always make a nice effort to say hello. Above all, the best asset to this hotel are it’s people. Dimitri, Irene and Eleni are all amazing people who are passionate about having fun and looking after their guests! They rock!!

The hotel and the rooms are beautifully decorated and the ambiance in the hotel itself is very cozy. The breakfast options are good, and the staff is extremely helpful and kind. The pool area is very nice as well. The parking lot of the hotel is in a very steep area so that makes it a bit difficult to park there, but the staff told us that we could also park in the street. The general location and neighbourhood of the hotel is not great, so that has an influence on the general atmosphere.
