Set in Hersonissos, 400 metres from Analipsi Beach, Paralos Kosta Alímia offers accommodation with a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a fitness centre and a garden.

We had a fantastic stay at Parolas Kosta Alimia. The Retreat Double Direct Sea View room with Hydro Massage Tub was beautiful, stylish and relaxing, though not directly beachfront as shown in some photos. The hotel itself is pure luxury, ideal for unwinding. A big plus was the inclusion of 5 à la carte restaurants in the half-board package, which felt truly high-end. I had a great massage at the spa, special thanks to Maria for her warm and professional service. Also the other Staffs there. All in all, the staff at hotel were incredibly friendly, the atmosphere was calming, and the entire experience exceeded expectations. Highly recommended!

    The location is PERFECT. The views are amazing. Worth 5 stars. Definetely recomend. The beach is very close. The place is at the port (marine). If you want to go to Crete, you HAVE to choose Aqua Vero. It's better than in the pictures. The host was great, very welcomy. He was always ready to help. There's everything you might need. I loved the local shampoo. The car parking is also very close. There's also protection from the moskitos at every window and doors. We visited in the begining of may.

It’s very nice hotel for relaxation, no entertainments in the hotel and bar close at 11 pm, but if you would like to party, the next town hersonissos is 10 min by taxi. And the sushi at the restaurant is sooo delicious we loved it

    This place is a paradise. Not only because its too clean and fancy, but also because of the professional staff. Starting of the reception; the welcoming and the support, they are amazing. Quiet rooms, good beds. The spa was a different experience, educated of how to do their job. I did a massage and Elena did a great job relaxing my muscles after the long flights. After done i felt my body energized. 5 stars is not enough for this hotel.

    The service and the staff are excellent. They really care for the guests. Especially i can mention the two young ladies, Nikoleta and Chrisa, the GUEST EXPERIENCE AGENTs who made a great effort to help and make sure we enjoyed our stay. The hotel is nice and clean, not too big and you can argue if the facility is 4 or 5 stars, but it doesn't really matter. Breakfast and dinner were rich and good.
