The hotel pool was a bit smaller than expected—especially since we ended up using it more often due to the heatwave—but the service and hospitality from the staff more than made up for it. They were absolutely amazing!

The location was absolutely beautiful—and thanks to the KimKim team, we were truly beachfront! We stepped right out onto the patio and there was the beach, just steps away. Securing beach lounges was easy, and the staff were incredibly hospitable and responsive to every request. We felt like royalty the entire stay. Ask ChatGPT

The staff were absolutely wonderful. The pool and poolside bar were beautiful, with excellent service throughout. While it’s a short walk to the community beach, reserving loungers with umbrellas in town was incredibly easy and very reasonably priced. We loved the beach—plus, the views were simply outstanding.

Very good tour guide, and she provided us a full VIP experience. The fact it was just our family made it superior to anything else we saw. We were so grateful, we spent a small amount more to provide this one/one experience.

Staff and Crew hospitality outstanding. Food on the boat was terrific. The size with the other families was great, not too crowded. Everything we were promised was provided!

Our guide was fantastic—so knowledgeable and engaging. From start to finish, we were treated like royalty. Transportation was seamless: we were dropped off right at the entrance, met by someone who personally escorted us to our guide, and after the tour, walked back to our driver. KimKim removed all the typical travel hassles—we never once had to search or wonder where to go. Everything was perfectly coordinated.

Our family always includes a cooking experience in our vacations, and the KimKim team absolutely nailed it with this one. The family farm, the kitchen setup, the delicious food, and the take-home recipes were all incredible. What really set this apart was that we actually got to do the cooking ourselves—something many tours don’t allow. It felt like a truly authentic Greek culinary experience, and one we’ll never forget.

This was definitely a family favorite. Our tour guide, Vesolli (apologies if I’m misspelling his name), was outstanding. He made the drive to the beach both entertaining and educational, while still allowing us some downtime to simply enjoy the ride. We’re so grateful for the front-row reserved umbrellas and chairs—they were a premium experience and an absolute must. As soon as we arrived at the beach, our chairs were waiting for us! The drive to the private restaurant in the small local village—featured in National Geographic for its unique historical architecture and preservation—was incredible. It quickly became one of our family’s favorite stops. The small tour group allowed for personal attention while also giving us the chance to meet another family and share the day. The guide even happily accommodated a small last-minute request to stop at a honey farm, which was another highlight. The tour guide from Chania Adventures was absolutely key to making this day such a memorable success.

Family run hotel - very friendly. Great breakfast. They accommodated all our needs - we checked in early and checked out late our final day there. Would love to stay there again.

Not the best hotel - had to pay 30 euros for additional city taxes which I wasn't expecting. It also wasn't in close proximity to any restaurants.

Wonderful location and amazing staff!

Great location, close to the sea and great restaurants, very clean, and a fabulous staff!

Great location in downtown Athens. Fabulous and very helpful staff!

This was a really fun activity for our teenagers! Very memorable and we each left with a unique piece!

This was a great activity for our family! Ages 11,14 and 16. Biking the backroads of this Greek Island was very fun for all of us. The beach time and picnic were amazing. Would definitely recommend!

This was really fun for our family! Even the teenagers had a good time. Our guide Natasha provided an amazing walking tour of the town’s history and food and the samples and dinner were fabulous!

Great historical walking tour! Would definitely recommend!

Rooms are much smaller than pictured.

The Knossos Palace tour was incredible. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly and we loved that we were each given ear pieces so that we could hear what she was saying. We went before the height of the tourist season which was great for 2 reasons: 1. we had a minimal wait to view the palace, and 2. it was not too hot yet. My only regret is that we didn't have a little bit more time to explore on our own after the tour.

4 and 1/2 bus ride to and from Athens included a strategic stop at the 1/2way point for a bathroom and food break. We stopped there on the way up and the way back, and the place was prepared to serve a lot of people fast with a cafeteria style food line. Breaking up the bus ride into 2 days with a night stay in Meteora was the right choice (many people on the bus ride back had taken the bus up earlier the same day).

We loved this experience. Our young guide Nicholas was great, sharing stories of his family and Greek traditions, his trip to New York City, and willingly answering all of our questions. The Range Rover drive over gravel roads was awesome, the visit to the olive oil and wine making farm was delicious and enjoyable, and the lunch at the Milia Mountain Retreat was outstanding!

Chris who lead us on a hike up to the Varlaam Monastery in Meteora was fantastic, stopping frequently to engage with the group and share with us his love of hiking and rock climbing the Meteora area. The Varlaam Monastery was beautiful, the views from the terrace were breathtaking, and the museum was informative and small enough to be able to enjoy in the 1 hour we were allotted.

This tour was a bit rushed in the beginning as there were a lot of people to pick up, which was done using 2 vans that were consolidated into one. We got to the Rousanou (St Barbara) Monastery shortly before they closed and it was a small monastery, making it hard to move around with the crowd. The tour was more relaxed after the first stop, and we were fortunate that the clouds that were with us most of the day cleared enough in time for us to see the sunset from the Meteora rocks.

Our guide Yannis was friendly, enthusiastic and gracious. Our first tour stop was at the Corinth Canal, which was narrow and steep and definitely worth a stop, even in the rain. We opted not to go into the Temple of Apollo, our second stop, and consequently squandered a bit of time that we wish we had to explore at our next stop, the Acrocorinth. We found the Acrocorinth interesting and it was worthy of its own guided tour. It was unfortunate that Yannis, a former taxi driver turned tour guide, was not a certified tour guide (apparently requiring a college degree in Greece) and consequently he said he was allowed to accompany us into any of the historical sites.
