My experience at the High Beach Resort in Crete was simply delightful! The location is perfect, right by the beach and within walking distance of Malia's lively atmosphere. The staff members were genuinely attentive, making me feel valued throughout my stay. Though I thoroughly enjoyed the food, I noticed some dishes were repeated frequently. However, the overall experience of relaxing by the pool and enjoying the beach made it worthwhile. The price seemed fair for what was offered, but it would have been nice to have a bit more variety in dining options.

The hotel offers an excellent beachfront experience with stunning pools and a lively atmosphere. The cleanliness and comfort of the rooms greatly enhance the stay, along with the availability of various dining options. However, there's room for improvement in the dining variety, especially for those on all-inclusive packages. Additionally, while the location is fantastic for nightlife, it might not suit families looking for a quieter vacation.

Our stay at the High Beach Hotel was exceptional, combining stunning beach access with an array of dining options. Although the waves sometimes made swimming difficult, the serene service, organized activities, and attention to detail truly stood out. The staff, particularly at the beach bar and during dining, were cheerful and made us feel valued. However, occasional wind may affect your swimming plans, and exploring Crete requires more time.

I had a lovely time at this hotel, enjoying the beautifully landscaped gardens and peaceful atmosphere. The staff truly made our stay special with their attentiveness, and the beach nearby was perfect for relaxing swims. However, the food could use a bit more variety, especially breakfast options, and my room felt slightly dated compared to my expectations. Still, the overall experience was enjoyable and worth it.

I had an incredible time at High Beach Hotel! The atmosphere was so welcoming, and I truly enjoyed the beautiful beach access and the variety of activities available. While the room was comfortable and offered a lovely view, it could use a little attention with the air conditioning. The dining options were delicious and presented well, though I would have liked even more variety. Overall, it's a perfect spot for a relaxing getaway, but just keep in mind the minor room hiccup.
