Hotel Scaleta Beach

We knew this was going to be a cheap and cheerful one but there were so many disappointments: the beds are awful, and asking for extra pillows and sheets wasn’t acknowledged. The hotel itself is up high in the middle of nowhere with no entertainment or excursions, so you need to be up for renting a car and tackling the crazy roads. There is a beach, but no loungers, services etc that aren’t reserved for other hotel guests. The food was really bland and repetitive, the drinks are served in the smallest glasses and there’s such limited options drinks wise in the all inclusive. We ate out a lot more than we’d planned to and brought far more snacks and ice creams form the hotel shop than we ever have before. The only redeeming features were the pool and great weather, but they can only take credit for the first. And, they limit the pool hours to 10:00-18:00, why?! Fab if you intend to just laze by the pool All day every day, but otherwise avoid like the plague.

We stayed here for a week at the beginning of June and were very satisfied. The room had perhaps the most beautiful view we've ever had. The staff was friendly, the food was good. Everything was in order. We recommend it.

I honestly was in the process of writing out a really long review with how awful this place is then I just stopped and thought I can’t be bothered to even give them anymore of my time!.In a nutshell the place is a joke and comparable to more like a back packers hostel or a prison than a hotel! Food is a disgrace and tasteless The all inclusive is a joke and the drinks on offer are horiffic and taste like some awful soap chemical because they are so watered down. The rooms are again awful with a prison cell like feeling.so poorly lit and beds with stains and rock hard mattresses. No evening entertainment so we ended up buying drinks /snacks from the shop in the hotel and going back to the prison cell to play cards. Only positive about this hotel is the views which are beautiful….even the pool which is about 8ft deep had baby wipes and even a sock floating in there at one point is a ear infection waiting to happen! This place honestly became so bad it became funny and me and my girlfriend actually ended up laughing with how bad it is.thank god we were only there for a few nights. A good bit of advice if you are unlucky enough to be sold this joke of a all inclusive hotel by love holidays is that if you head down towards the beach and turn right just before you get there there is a nice place to eat and drink which is right on the sea. Basically bring lots of cash as you will need it to eat and drink out

We booked a very last minute holiday here as a couple needing some “us” time. We were so pleasantly surprised when the transfer dropped us off! Christiana on reception was so welcoming (after already giving us a preferred room by sending her an email the day before). Everywhere was spotless, stunning views of the sea and a beautiful pool to swim in (larger than we thought it would be). The rooms were basic, but clean. The food was traditional and good and all we needed. The patio area where we dined was beautiful and peaceful. We ate a couple of times at the taverna opposite next to the beach, which was great quality and inexpensive. The walks along the beach to the left of the hotel took us to a picturesque beach bar for iced Greek coffees or cocktails and the sea was crystal clear. A trip to Rethymnon with bus tickets bought from the hotel cost us 4€ each return and the city is stunning. What a relaxing few days we had! We will be returning to this value for money hotel, where the staff welcome you like family! Thank you xxx

Went with my daughter for 4 days , wish we had booked for 7 , hotel was lovely and clean pool was amazing , a very peaceful quite hotel which is exactly what we wanted , food was good. Vegetarian options were great overall a lovely holiday and hotel

I went to Skaleta with my partner, despite asking for a double room we were given two single bed, we could feel all the mattress springs. We asked several time for a double bed, but no options. The restaurant: only 4 main in total to choose from, included a overcooked pasta and plain white rice. Side plenty of fresh salad. Same type lunch and dinner. Breakfast not impressive. My boyfriend has lost 2 kg in a week, good but not what you want in holiday. The free beach not far from the hotel is free but good, so is the sea. The is only an option in the village to have some food, but not great either. You need a car or the bus to take you to the closest city. Bus are regular every 30 min. Overall, I would not recommended this hotel.
