The room was not ready despite our late arrival. I had to make our daughter's bed and the AC in her room was not working properly. Overall, the management made up for the shortcomings but it was a bit of a drag. Great beach and friendly staff.

Although we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, we would have liked the entertainment at the hotel to be more varied as it seemed to be geared towards children. The food at the hotel restaurants was not completely to our liking, but fortunately, there were many restaurants outside the property that were of a very good standard.

Property is absolutely lovely! Very clean and well maintained. We upgraded our room so that we had a view of the beach and pool and were close by. Room was very big and clean. Staff were wonderful, helpful and friendly. We would absolutely stay here again. Easy walk into Stalia and close to Malia (you could also walk this).

The property is beautiful - and large!! The staff is extremely friendly. It’s a very well-maintained property. You can play pool, ping-pong and tennis and the spa is wonderful too. The breakfast buffet is expansive as well. We ate once at the restaurant and it wasn’t bad, not the best we’ve had, but good.

Looks big, but feels super personal
Just loved it! I wasn’t sure when I booked. I thought it might be too big for this boutique hotel lover, but The Alexander did not disappoint. Warm and friendly staff, lovely ocean/beach and gardens in picturesque groupings of small clusters of rooms which are all easily accessible to the central hotel and dining areas. Half board featured a staggering array of buffet options at breakfast and dinner including fresh fruits and vegetables and Greek dishes as well as other supporting ethnic dishes. While there might have been an item or two that I didn’t care for, I loved there was so much that was new to me that I was able to try! And I really admire any buffet than can deliver so successfully on the taste and texture of freshly cooked fish! In all a very lovely experience that I hope singles, couples and families will enjoy as I did.
