Karma Minoan

Well presented place, nestled out of agios Nikolaos, the grounds up to reception are lovely , well maintained all over resort. In reception there are very knowledgeable staff , Anna and Georgia were are main two who we dealt with. They could tell you all you needed to know and do on the island , very helpful. We did not hire a car, the bus service , 5 min walk away was great . Hubby hire a quad for 2 days , so we went on adventures around the other side of the island . We also took some of the trips , spinalonga, safari to water fall, which took in olive oil factory, kritsa, and the oldest living olive tree about 3,000 yrs etc. The staff are all lovely , kind and courteous, the house keeping manager Anthi , and her team , could not do enough to make your room feel welcoming every day . The room consisted of sitting area , bedroom area with coffee machine and fridge , also mini bar, shower room and toilet. The food was delicious something for everyone , am gluten and lactose intolerant, and still lots to choose from. We had welcome night, acoustic afternoon, traditional Greek night that was fantastic, great fun was had by all. Cocktail evening. Thanks to the wonderful, humorous bar staff, stelios, sotiris , George and Georgia, they have kept us entertained for the last 2weeks . Lastly marina who has let us stay in our room as it was not needed and we have a late flight , there was a plan B if needed . Thank you all for a wonderful time and will definitely be back .

I loved the proximity to a few perfect beaches but also being out of the bigger cities. For exploring the island renting a car is useful, but not needed daily. Grin Car rental works directly with the resort and is a bit pricy but very convenient as they bring the car to you at Karma Minoan. The rooms are brightly whitewashed with simple but elegant furnishings mostly with Agean blue decor. Comfortable mattresses. A refreshing pool. Wonderful buffet breakfasts which are served until 11 am allowing for really only needing one other meal per day. The front desk was very helpful suggesting but not pushing tours. We found all of their recommendations to be worthwhile including an all day trip to Santorini and a guided tour of various archeological highlights , the Heraklion Museum and an olive oil factory

Hotel with a relaxed ambience and in a great location with far reaching views of the sea, other islands, coastline and mountains from our room. Good size room with separate lounge area and bedroom leading onto a balcony with sunbeds and table and chairs. Bathroom and shower a bit cramped but clean and functional. Very friendly, attentive and helpful staff, good selection of delicious food and drinks. Would definitely visit again.

We enjoyed our stay at the resort. Great seaview from our room Balcony. Enjoyed the breakfast ,Dinner and Happy hour. Site pool was clean and inviting. Lovely beach in the locality and great time spent at Agnos Nicolas.

We had a wonderful time -Aug 29- Sept3 2024- The place is gorgeous - the STAFF is the BEST anywhere! Manolis, Anna (both are reception/ concerige) , Maria(cleaning), Anna (bar/dining room) Stellios, Gorgois. So many fun things to do Greek night, spa, great restaurant also nearby: olive oil/wine tour, sunset catamaran tours, excellent dining on lake nearby, piano bar !

All I can say is that we, my wife and I, have one of the very best vacations that we have ever had. I had decided before leaving home to cut our stay at the Karma Minoan by three days, opting to spend those last three days in Athens from where we were departing to return to the States. When it came time to leave, I felt like crying for that decision. Athens was great, but I sincerely regret the decision, and I wish I had stayed on Crete and, of course, at the Minoan.

Karma provides good service, staff are friendly. Crete is the nice island to visit. It is recommended to visit, and we enjoyed the stay in Karma Minoan.

Lovely place to relax. Staff are wonderful always friendly and very helpful. Food excellent. Greek night is not to be missed.

The staff were amazing, friendly and very helpful. Both George and Sortiris never let you have an empty glass nor left your table unattended. The housekeeper Anithi was such a beautiful lady nothing was ever a problem or a big deal. The reception staff Anna and Georgia were also fantastic from booking our taxi, helping with phone calls, sharing the local knowledge and booking excursions outside of the resort.
