How do we rate a property?
We rate all our hotels, resorts, and lodges using our own bespoke grading system. We'll only invite a property into our collection once it's been assessed by one of our specialists. If it doesn't impress us, it doesn't make the cut.
From the quality of the food served in the restaurant to the amenities offered in each bedroom, we carefully rate each property to make sure it meets our high expectations.

Guests are spoiled for choice with a beautiful infinity pool, fresh seawater pool, and a dedicated children’s pool. There’s also a heated indoor pool attached to the modern and spacious fitness center. And, if that’s not all, there’s also a nearby Blue Flag beach for those looking to take a dip in the pristine waters of the Mediterranean.
Avra Imperial is home to two buffet restaurants and three a la carte options. Generous portions and gourmet dishes are par for the course, with guests treated to Mediterranean, Asian, Italian, and authentic Cretan cuisine. For those in the mood for a little romance, the hotel offers a variety of private dining areas for special celebrations and private occasions. After dinner, indulge in a cocktail at the cozy Le Bar Lounge, the perfect venue to unwind after a day well spent. There’s also a vibrant pool bar, and a Gin Bar that’s perfect at any time of day.
For those planning a family getaway, Avra Imperial Hotel offers plenty of amazing options for younger VIPs.
