Sea Side A Lifestyle Resort

Booked this resort only 2 weeks out for my mum and I to have a last minute break. It was the final week of the season so not sure if this added to the extra good value for money we felt we were getting! ||Overall we have loved our stay. The resort is beautiful, so well designed without feeling overly ‘designed’ with lovely materials used. It’s very natural looking on the peninsula landscape - they’ve worked around the rugged hills instead of a big block built on it. This does mean that there are lots of steps throughout the resort, but my 71 year old mum who 6 months ago had hip replacement surgery was perfectly able to navigate her way around and down to the little beach along the boardwalk. ||Beautiful sea views from the bedroom, pools, bars and restaurants - didn’t want to leave these views! ||We only dined in the buffet restaurant as my mum is quite a fussy eater, and this provided plenty of choice for our 5 days. I would have liked a little more variety of fresh fruits and it would have been nice to have a fresh egg station at breakfast so you could get an omelette etc to order. But these are small things. ||Wine and drinks were all good quality, cocktails made fresh to order which was great (as sometimes these can be horrible in all-inclusive resorts). Would have liked to have the option of a Baileys or Disaronno after dinner drink to be available within the all-inc package, but these were charged extra unfortunately. ||On the final day I got sick and the reception team called the local pharmacy in the next village and arranged for medicine to be sent by taxi to me which was very kind of them to facilitate this for me. ||That being said all the staff were very friendly and helpful.||My mum and I have both agreed that we will definitely be returning to this hotel and will recommend to friends and family who are looking for a relaxing adults only holiday.

I’ve stayed at many hotels with beautiful views, but Seaside Hotel easily tops them all. The scenery is absolutely breathtaking.||The value for money is incredible. Spacious rooms, a unique and relaxing vibe throughout, amazing saltwater pools with plenty of sunbeds, and a design that shows real attention to detail. Everything looks and feels perfect. The cocktails were a lovely surprise too, top-quality ingredients, the same you’d expect from a proper cocktail bar, all included in the stay!||The staff were exceptional: attentive, friendly, always smiling and genuinely relaxed. We had great conversations with them, and at the bars and restaurants we never waited more than a minute to have our order taken. Such a smooth and welcoming experience.||The food was out of this world. The main buffet restaurant offered both incredible selection and quality, easily on par with many high-end à la carte restaurants you’d find in a big city. We also got to dine at three of the hotel’s à la carte restaurants, all included in the stay. Oceano had stunning views, Minoan offered an amazing local vibe and flavors, and Umi, wow! Umi was easily one of the top 5 restaurants I’ve ever eaten at; it could be famous on its own in any major city.||The facilities were equally impressive. The gym had a beautiful view and was very well equipped, and there were tennis, paddle, and basketball courts available. The yoga shala was a real gem, we joined a few guided yoga and sound healing sessions that were truly special.||Overall, everything about our stay was perfect — from the people to the food, the design, and the atmosphere. Seaside Hotel sets a new standard for what a five-star experience should be. Highly recommended! 🌅✨

Our holiday at Seaside A Lifestyle Resort was absolutely brilliant from start to finish! The food was delicious with plenty of variety, the weather was perfect every day, and there were so many activities locally to keep us entertained. We had rented a boat for a day and went on the quad safari, both brilliant experiences. The bedroom was spacious and comfortable, and the shower was just lovely, the perfect way to unwind after a day in the sun.||I haven’t written a review before and usually wouldn’t, however I wanted to give a special shoutout to Denys, one of the bar staff, who really made our stay extra special. Always smiling, cheerful, and full of joy, he went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. His impeccable customer service and friendly personality truly stood out, he couldn’t do enough for us and always ensured we were looked after. ||We’d also like to give a huge thank you to Giorgos, the bell boy, who was the very first member of staff we met when arriving. He greeted us with a great big beaming smile and was always happy to help, whether it was carrying our heavy suitcases, offering local recommendations, or just having a friendly chat. His warmth and professionalism set the tone for a wonderful stay.||Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better holiday - everything from the people to the food and atmosphere was perfect. I would definitely recommend this hotel for those who are looking to unwind and relax. My only regret is that we didn’t stay longer.

We stayed here for our honeymoon and would 100% recommend Crete and this seaside resort as an excellent place for couples wanting a beautiful place to travel in October time. The resort itself is amazing with great rooms, customer service, a gym, yoga/pilates studio, tennis court and more. The resort is situated a few minutes away from a beautiful beach that is easy for swimming but the resort has a variety of pools as well. We were really impressed by the quality of the all inclusive food but there are a la carte restaurants too. There is a restaurant called Caléa by Gerardo Mettawithin within the hotel which is a really special experience. We will remember our holiday here with fond memories, thank you!

We’ve just returned from a truly wonderful 6-night stay at Seaside A Lifestyle Resort in Crete and honestly, we’re already wishing we were back there with a cocktail in hand! From the moment we arrived, we were struck by how spotlessly clean the resort was. Every corner of the grounds, pool areas, restaurants, and our room were immaculately maintained. It was clear that each space was cared for with great pride. Check-in was smooth and luxurious in the beautifully designed reception area. The lady on reception was very friendly and welcoming, taking the time to explain everything we needed to know and providing a helpful map of the resort. The facilities were excellent whether relaxing by the pool on comfortable sun loungers, enjoying a drink at one of the bars, or exploring the other amenities, everything felt luxurious yet relaxed. Our room overlooked the sea, and it did not disappoint. Waking up to that stunning view each morning was truly special. A huge special thanks to Denys at the bar. Friendly, funny, and genuinely the best bartenders we’ve ever met. He went above and beyond all week, whether it was mixing up a sunset cocktail or bringing us an evening cappuccino (with style). Nothing was ever too much trouble for him. Also, a huge shout-out to George, the bell boy and hands down the best buggy driver around! Always cheerful, chatty, and full of great local tips, he made getting around the resort seamless and fun. Both Denys and George are absolute credits to the resort. We’re so glad we got to meet them and genuinely hope to stay in touch. The buffet food was fantastic fresh, varied, and beautifully presented every day. There was always something new to try, from traditional Greek dishes to international favourites. All in all, Seaside A Lifestyle Resort delivered on every front: cleanliness, service, views, and hospitality. It’s one of those rare places that manages to be both luxurious and laid-back at the same time. We left relaxed, happy, and slightly heartbroken to be heading home. 5 star in every way, thank you for your hospitality.

Me and my wife had the most amazing two weeks at the Seaside. We were looked after so well from the moment we arrived until our departure. Had a very relaxing stay. The resort is beautiful and the area of Agia Pelagia is so scenic. So many great views. The food at breakfast, lunch and dinner was fantastic with great options to cater for everyone. The staff (restaurant, bar, reception, spa and cleaning) were so lovely. We were sad to be leaving at the end. Thanks for the best time. We went home with the best memories.

If you are researching when to rebook the next 2026 stay at Seaside whilst you’re STILL at Seaside, you know they have done something RIGHT. We would sincerely like to commend all the staffs, particularly Emre, Anna, Elena, Erdogan, Josh and the hardworking staff who cleaned all 80 pools every morning- they were such professional, full of sincerity and that special human touch. Even all the staffs at the restaurants were filled with a sense of duty and all smiles. I would think that its the company culture and leadership that had cascaded down to your entire team. Many Congratulations! You guys are the first hotel which I can proudly say that You Walk The Talk. Seaside staff are THE BEST! The surprise upgrade to the pool suite was such generosity,we couldn’t thank you enough. The view is so amazing at every corner, and all inclusive is such value for money. We are coming back in Spring & Autumn 2026 , and have told all our friends to forget about Amalfi , just come to Seaside. Thank you again for making our stay such a memorable one, we will continue to support your business and wishing you nothing but success. Well done once again ❤️

I booked the hotel as a surprise for my husbands birthday. It didn't let me down and he loved it. I dont normally do all inclusive as like to venture out. I was glad we had it as the food was amazing loads of choice. The drinks were all included as well. Including bottles of wine wine your meal. All the staff were very friendly and couldn't do enough for you. We booked a Cape suite with our own pool and it was perfect. In the room we had robes, kettle , coffee machine. Fridge with a bottle of wine and few soft drinks. We also had 2 x litre bottles of water everyday. The hotel even gave my husband a birthday cake which was delicious 😋 |The beach is only a short walk away.|
