Domes Hotel is a gorgeous boutique property with breathtaking views. From the moment we arrived, the experience felt special — we were greeted with a welcome drink and a refreshing herbal towel. The staff is exceptionally attentive and always eager to help with anything you need. The spa experience was outstanding — Thanos gave an incredible massage and made the treatment truly relaxing. Each evening, turn-down service included a little sweet treat, and we even received a few thoughtful gifts during our stay. The location is also very convenient, just a short taxi ride from town. A perfect and memorable stay overall!

We stayed at Domes Noruz Chania the end of September for 10 days and it was the perfect retreat from start to finish.
All of the staff were absolutely fantastic, so friendly, attentive and couldn’t have done more for us. They really made us feel welcome and taken care of throughout our stay.
My boyfriend and I are into our fitness and the gym facilities were excellent, one of the best we’ve seen at a hotel. He also used the sauna every day and loved it! The whole hotel had such a relaxed easygoing vibe, no stress about getting sunbeds or queues at breakfast.
The location is perfect too, right on the beach and within walking distance to lots of lovely restaurants and spots to explore.
A really special touch was on my boyfriend’s birthday, while we were out the team surprised us with a cake and a bottle in the room.
Everything about this hotel exceeded our expectations- beautiful surroundings, amazing service and a wonderful atmosphere that made it feel truly special. We left feeling completely recharged and can’t wait to come back again soon!

Our honeymoon began at Domes Noruz Chania, and it set the bar high for every stop in Greece that followed. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond—there was a chocolate bombe cake and a chilled bottle of champagne waiting in our room, a thoughtful surprise that made us feel instantly celebrated.
We’d booked through American Express Fine Hotels + Resorts and were upgraded to a beautiful room, and they honored our late checkout with no fuss. Breakfast each morning exceeded expectations, with a generous spread that included fresh juices, teas, and espresso drinks, a honeycomb block for drizzling, flaky pastries, perfectly poached eggs, fresh fruit, and rotating sides that kept things fresh and interesting throughout our stay.
The service at dinner was equally polished, complemented by peaceful live acoustic music. One entrée arrived comically small—a lone chicken breast, some sauce, and a single broccoli stalk—but the team handled it graciously, offering dessert and champagne on the house.
Between the spotless private beach, excellent towel service, and two distinct pools—one serene, one upbeat with electronic music—there was a spot for every mood. Drinks were creative and fairly priced, especially during happy hour.
We also visited the spa, where the staff was warm, attentive, and clearly skilled at what they do. The treatments themselves were excellent, though a few of the spa amenities could use some fine-tuning. The warm-water pool and sauna were pleasant but not as powerful or hot as expected—the sauna hovered around 50°C, some of the jets in the pool weren’t working, and the steam room never fully heated up. Still, the overall atmosphere was calm and relaxing, and the staff’s professionalism made it a worthwhile experience.
More than anything, what made our stay special was the staff. They were kind, thoughtful, and very attentive. After the whirlwind of our wedding, Domes Noruz gave us exactly what we needed: a place to relax. It was the perfect start to our honeymoon and a resort we’ll remember for its kindness as much as its beauty.

I booked this via the Amex Platinum. I was very happy to get an upgraded room with a beautiful beach view and a massive private pool. The pool was heated but still a little chilly in October because of the outside temperature. Service was phenomenal as I was able to what's app message and get my car and any other requests. The food at the resort was also very good and they have a gym and spa. Access to the sauna, steam room and indoor pool are included with a reservation. I would recommend if you're in a hurry to tell your waiter, otherwise lunch or dinner can take some time. Also there is a cooking class nearby (15 min drive) that is wonderful called Chania cooking class Crete.

The atmosphere is relaxing, and the location is perfect to enjoy the magical Chania sunsets. A highlight of our stay was the spa, where we enjoyed a unique Cretan-inspired treatment that left us feeling completely rejuvenated. Truly an unforgettable experience that we would love to repeat! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
