Iphigenia Mythic Retreat — Hotel in Municipality of Chersonissos

We have just returned from a truly wonderful stay at this incredible hotel which exceeded our expectations. We are a couple in our late 20’s and loved the design and attention to detail this hotel offered.

The hotel itself feels secluded but is conveniently located near the main town within a 10 minute walking distance. It’s a nice walk and is not hilly/difficult to manage. There is a supermarket directly opposite and a open air cinema down the road.

The room was much bigger than expected, and was really nicely designed with a minimalistic/neutral feel. The furniture was lovely and the bed was the comfiest we’ve experienced away from home, we slept really well! The room had a fridge and kitchenette area which was very handy, and was cleaned regularly during our stay.

The pool/garden areas offered so much variety in terms of sunloungers and day beds which we really loved, both a mix of shaded and more open ones. It was beautifully maintained and we felt very comfortable spending all day by the pool. Their was also a really nice seated area to the left of the pool which offered comfy garden furniture which was perfect for evening drinks.

What ultimately made this outstanding was the 5* service from both Marianna and Xristos. They went above and beyond for us and made this a must-return hotel for us. They were incredibly attentive and treated us so well. All of the food was incredible, my wife is vegetarian and they were very accommodating for her and offered alternatives from the menu which was great. The range of drinks and quality of cocktails was also amazing for the size of the hotel. We also fell in love with Coconut the dog, who was a great host!

I would strongly recommend this hotel to anyone. We cannot wait to return and already looking to book again for...

Returned from a wonderful weeks stay at the Iphigenia Mystic Retreat, as a family of four (18 & 16yr old children). Where do I start…the owners MariAnna & Christos are amazing hosts, working tirelessly to ensure you have a perfect & memorable stay, recommending places to visit, assisting with car hire & booking fantastic restaurants.||This is a beautiful and intimate hotel, serving just 12 individual apartments means there is no need to rush for sun beds! The facilities cater for all ages. The day sun beds are a great addition. And the grounds are beautiful. There is an array of food (large portions) and drink available at the hotel bar with certain cocktails only 4 Euros, with well known & local beers and spirits, together with fruit drinks and ice creams. ||Yes, the bathrooms are small however with a shower, basin & toilet, what else do you need? The apartments have lots of space with added balcony or terrace area and the air conditioning is a god send. The hotel is located a short 10 mins walk downhill to Hersonissos beach and bar/restaurant strip where you have an unlimited amount of choice. Would recommend Cretan Blue & Med Cafe. Herssonisos Old Town (traditional Greek) is also worth a visit one evening by taxi (10 Euros) and meal at Zachos is a must, staff are fantastic & play games involving Raki! A hire call, whilst not a necessity should be considered to see the sites where you will find amazing, friendly & cheap tavernas in the remote mountain roads.||In summary, we had a memorable and fantastic family stay at the Iphigenia. The facilities are perfect and the owners so thoughtful. Hope to...
