Yianna Caravel "by Checkin"

Very nice hotel, great amenities, kettle, iron / board etc all in room. Really nice staff, right on the beach & close to bus stop, so good I extended my stay, highly recommended.

Die Unterkunft ist renoviert, modern und sauber. Das Frühstück ist ok, das Frühstückspersonal super freundlich und herzlich! Dinner ist sehr gut, u.a. sind Fschsuppe und Lachs zu empfehlen. Die Pizza ist lecker und riesig. Gerne wieder!

Very comfortable room, friendly hotel team. Food was very good and great value, we had dinner in the hotel. Beach beds available to use for free during hotel stay. Free parking onsite as well. Only saw a very small plunge pool style area, but not a problem as beach is so close. Only 15mins from airport.

Well maintained hotel with staff that look after you. Right on the beachfront which makes it even more pleasant

I haven’t written a Tripadvisor review in a while but the warm welcome and quality accommodation offered by the Yianna Caravel by Checkin, Malevizi requires very positive feedback. I don’t know the recent history of this hotel but there appears to have been very significant redecoration with the addition of many attractive artworks. We enjoyed the complimentary breakfast which offered a cooked option and Greek/ continental option. Evening meal could be taken on a beach bar and were very tasty all washed down with complimentary raki. We used the hotel as a base for a walking holiday climbing Mt Spathi and Mt Psiloritis / Ida. We also visited Knossos.

Nice, clean, spacious room with great views from our room. Parking was hit-and-miss as the lot is shared with beachgoers and there is no designated hotel parking—ran into issues a few times in just a five-day stay. Also, no facial tissue provided and unless there were limiting factors, could have some of the room’s square footage to make the bathroom larger; bathroom flooded every time we took a shower since there was no real barricade to keep the water in the shower stall. Great place to stay otherwise!!!

Just stunningly beautiful week in this hotel! Super friendly staff, good service in everything, clean, own jacuzzi, lots of different beach beds always available, amazing breakfast. Everything was 10/10. Luxurious experience with reasonable price. Wow.

Good: Good food, nice view, clean hotel Bad: smell in backyard, noise at midnight, bathroom have bad drainage leaving water puddles around toilet due to use of shower

For the price, this is a fantastic hotel. Right on the water with beautiful views, located near the highway and close to (but not in) Heraklion. Renovated recently so everything is still in good condition. The food at the restaurant was very good and also the most affordable of our entire trip in Greece. Seriously, our whole dinner was the same price as coffee and croissants at the airport. The only downside is that parking was overcrowded on the weekend when all the locals came to the beach. Given the low prices, I highly highly recommend getting an ocean-view room. Ask for the third or fourth floor because our second story view partially looked out into the restaurant.
