“Orion Star struck me as a particularly good choice for families; the 'Deluxe Family Suites' sleep up to five, and its proximity to Agia Marina beach simplifies kid-friendly excursions. I especially note the seasonal outdoor pool, complete with sunbeds, and the poolside bar-a clear advantage over more impersonal resorts; plus, the regular shuttle service to Chania is a boon. This hotel emphasizes Cretan hospitality, with amenities aimed squarely at relaxation and convenience.”
