  • Thoroughly enjoyed our week in September ( 2012) at the Iberostar Creta Panorama. Our highest praise goes to the animation team who worked tirelessly all day organising games and competitions and then produced an excellent show every night at 9.

Thoroughly enjoyed our week in September ( 2012) at the Iberostar Creta Panorama.
Our highest praise goes to the animation team who worked tirelessly all day organising games and competitions and then produced an excellent show every night at 9.30. The standard of singing ,dancing and comedy was high and much better than we have previously experienced in similar resorts.
All the staff were friendly and helpful, particularly at reception.
The breakfast buffet was first class and the lunch and dinner buffets were varied and good value.
The resort is a little isolated and a hire car is useful if you don't want to enjoy the delights of the resort all day.
The beds were a little hard but this was put right by a mattress topper which was provided on request.
Would certainly book here again through Travel Republic who provide numerous date and flight options.

Top Tip: Hire a car through a local firm : not on line from the airport where horrendous deposits, excesses and onerous conditions are applied.
Best Cars from Panormo provide cars with excess free unconditional insurance.

The hotel is quite isolated. You cant walk to restaurants and bars, but there is nightly entertainment, some of it good.

We enjoyed the week.

Only bad point - you had to get up early to ensure you got a sun lounger.
