3 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2012 NEW

We had a one-bedroom for a week at the end of April through a TrendWest/RCI exchange for half the points a one-bedroom Trendwest place in N. America would cost. The place was about half as nice, but we were on Crete in a good location and had a great week. From what we heard and read about crowds of vacationers... More

We booked through RCI and arrived 29.3.2012 and found we are too early for the local seasons - hotel not fully equipped, its restaurant closed, street restaurants and coffee shops mostly closed, icecream cannot be served in the open restaurants ("not season yet"!), etc. The tourist seasons started only after we left, ie 7.4.12 (not hotel's fault) The hotel staff...

Leoniki Residence comes in 3 classes. Gold Crown Grand Leoniki, RCI, and at the bottom. Club La Costa (CLC) We booked through CLC and were given an awful 1 bed unit which was dark and gloomy and tucked away in a cul de sac with no direct sunlight. The lounge was poorly furnished and the settee/extra beds were little more... More

We booked through RCI and due to a complication could only secure two studio apartments instead of the the 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment we had booked previously. However the studios were excellent, we stayed in Grand Leoniki where is was very peaceful and our accommodation was spacious and very comfortable. We did not cook but had a full kitchen... More

Our apartment was nearer to the main road so there was some traffic noise - especially from larger vehicles and motorbikes. Our apartment was kept clean for the time we were there. However, we are used to putting a "do not disturb" notice on our door. We did not have this here. The alternative would be to put the chain... More

We had a great two weeks at the Leoniki in a timeshare appartment. The resort was clean and efficiently run. It did not feel crowded. The pool was quite big and there was a lifeguard on duty. The beach was only a short walk. Beach is a bit stoney but still nice. The water gets deep quite quickly so might... More

We travelled as a family of 6 having apartment 407(Very spacious) and apartment 208. We had read the reviews before travelling and was very dubious about the complex and asccommodation. It turned out to be one of the best holidays we have ever had. We have exchanged many times with RCI and although the accommodation was not what we have... More

Our stay at this resort was booked via CLC Vacation Club. Arrived at Leoniki before 1600 hrs and had to wait for our room. The reception staff were efficient and friendly and remembered us from previous visits. No changes to the information pack from previous visits. Prior to arriving I had emailed and asked not to be allocated a unit... More

For instance no wine classes at all. We ate only one breakfast and one dinner at the hotel, food was ok. The residence is situated beween two roads but the traffict... More

We visited Crete for the first time via RCI Timeshare exchange. Our flight was 8 hours late and we had to find the resort at night with a rental car, which was challenging. Once we had found the resort, the staff was helpful and polite. We had a 1 BR apartment which included actually two double beds in the roomy... More
