Finally we are back in our beloved Greece! Mom was able to take a vacation on the eve of the holidays and we flew away to the gentle sun and sea. True, there was wind and rain a couple of times in the morning, but there was no sizzling heat. The sea is still warm, and since the hotel has 2 lagoons and man-made breakwaters, we swam even in the strongest waves. Although the lagoons are not really big, the men said it was better to swim out to the open sea. There are many pools, stairs, bridges and some incredible transitions through arches entwined with vines and flowers on the territory.
In the evening, the lights on the hills glow very beautifully, but the hotel itself is secluded. You can walk with an easy step in 10 minutes only to the village of Milatos, there are a lot of taverns, churches, cats, as well as shops and an ATM. Once a flock of sheep descended from the mountains, they were clearly visible from the beach and the sea, but the shepherd and the hotel staff drove them away from the gate. Sheep bleated, bells rang, the air smelled of flowers, and you swim in crystal water (by the way, fish swim most often in the left lagoon if you stand with your back to the bars and face the sea) and bite your legs - such a free fish spa). Incredible feeling.
We had a very beautiful room, superior, only Wi-Fi through a smart TV caused difficulties at first. The whole hotel goes in tiers, it's easy to get lost, the animation was calm - we liked the Greek bazaar, where you can buy souvenirs without leaving the city, and the performances of musicians. But the main thing is food. I don't know how you can stay hungry. Fruit - the sea, even sweet pineapples. Oatmeal, pancakes, waffles and yoghurts in addition to eggs of all kinds and cheeses for breakfast. Seafood, red fish for breakfast, champagne every day in a Cretan restaurant.

And we also signed up for an Italian restaurant for dinner. There is a very tasty bream and caprese salad, but the panacotta didn’t go in for me (probably the only thing I didn’t like). There were a lot of people, but most importantly, there were not so many children as we were afraid because of the holidays. Mostly babies in strollers. Rest turned out relaxed, real. We drove to Agios Nikolaos, a very beautiful town. There the water turned out to be a little warmer - and right in front of the sea there were delicious waffles and cappuccino. There is a half day bus from the hotel.
