Stella Palace Aqua Park Resort, Analipsi (Crete)

Stella Palace Resort is a large family-friendly resort with great amenities for kids, including a fantastic water park and engaging activities. The staff are exceptionally friendly and attentive, creating a welcoming atmosphere. However, some rooms, like ours, were a bit dated and had issues that detracted from our stay. While dining options were diverse and tasty, the all-inclusive cocktail selections were lacking.

Stella Palace offers an exceptional experience, especially for families, with a fantastic water park and friendly staff who go out of their way to make you feel special. The dining was varied, particularly for vegans, but some guests reported repetitiveness in the buffet options. The room quality was high, though the noise from the pool bar at night could be a downside. Overall, it’s a beautiful resort with great amenities and a welcoming atmosphere.

The hotel has an incredible water park that's perfect for families, and the all-inclusive option provides a range of tasty meals and snacks. However, we faced issues with the water park being closed due to wind, which was disappointing, especially for our children. While the staff was generally welcoming, there could be better support for diverse dietary needs.

Our stay at Stella Palace was absolutely delightful, with spacious family rooms right by the pool and a great variety of dining options which kept our meals exciting. The resort had a vibrant atmosphere with attentive service that made us feel truly valued. However, the plastic waste from drinks could be improved to create a more environmentally friendly experience.

The resort offers a fantastic escape with a stunning water park and well-designed pools, making it a hit with families. The dining options are diverse and delicious, particularly the Asian a la carte restaurant. However, the service can be inconsistent, and the evening entertainment might not appeal to everyone.
