I traveled to Crete in October to meet up with my husband who has been away since July as part of the NATO fleet. We had an amazing time at the Perle. The main areas of the hotel are beautiful. The pool was great. I guess we were in the off season so it was pretty quiet. We did have some Dutch army there for a couple days but hardly noticed they were there. I did have to fight a bit to get a double bed. I will never understand this European thing with two twin beds. We are not Fred and Wilma Flintstone :-). I did get a double bed after switching rooms three times. The room we had was quite spacious and had a nice size balcony over looking the water. The bathroom was a nice size as well. The bed was fairly comfortable as well. The staff was amazing, with the exception of one woman at the front desk. Guess she didn't like my changes of room but I like to get what I pay for :-) The staff at the bar and at the restaurant were great. They were very friendly and would often come by and sit and chat with us before their shift. There were a group of us who traveled over together that stayed at the hotel and the staff had a great time with us. Even came to the bar after their shifts to hang out with us. I think the fact that we are all so friendly to them made the difference. What can I say, we Canadians are known for that. We even exchanged emails with a few of them. The food was also great. None of us had a bad meal. There were 10 couples staying at the hotel so if all of us thought the food was good that is saying something. There was entertainment two nights we were there. One night they had a caberet show and another night they had Cretean dancers. They pulled people up from the crowd and got us dancing. It was a lot of fun. The hotel is a bit out of the way so if you want the night life of the town this is probably not the place for you. However we wanted to relax and have a little quiet time. There are buses you can take in to town but we chose a cab. Came to around 17-20 Euros one way. The town of Chania was a lot of fun and had some good shopping. We also took a day trip to Samira Gorge. We didn't hike it but it was a beautiful view. Over all I would definitely go back to the Perle. If you are there say hi to Helen and Pannos from their Canadian friends.
