Отдых на Крите Holidays in Crete

We just arrived, so fresh impressions. I considered myself a rather unpretentious tourist, but when there is something to compare with, you involuntarily begin to compare. In general, the hotel is quite good. The rooms are ordinary, a standard set of furniture, the most necessary. The first thing that surprised me was the lack of soap, etc. Then it turned out that here it was poured into special measuring cups for liquid soap. Cleaning was daily, change of linen and towels as needed. There is a small refrigerator built into the closet, we thought there was a mini-bar, but no, no one put anything else in there. As for the territory, it is very green, beautiful well-groomed, really like in the picture. The food is varied and tasty. There are always several types of meat, enough, vegetables, salads, cheese, of course feta. Since the hotel is focused on Italians and French, all kinds of pasta or, more correctly, pasta. As for seafood and fish, the assortment is poor. Fruits were also let down, overripe watermelons, green melons, green peaches and plums, and the same grapes. True unsightly in appearance, but very juicy and sweet oranges. As for drinks, the set is the same as everywhere else: no beer, powdered juices, Coca-Cola, etc. , but pretty good dry wine, red, rose and white. Cocktails in the bar also taste like powder. But if you find a common language with the guys bartenders, then they will try and make something delicious. A cheerful animation team did not let anyone get bored, well done guys. And about the sea, the place is open, not a bay, it was stormy for 5 days, but the water is very clean and warm. And one more nuance, if you want to hang out, then this place is not suitable because the hotel is located in the village and you can’t run into the city every day by taxi, it’s boring in the evening. That is, I had enough for five days, taking into account the fact that we drove around the island in a rented car for 3 days. Yes, and the last day at the hotel was unpleasantly surprising, we checked out the room by 12, check-out at 19, we were kindly told that we could be on site, but if we go in for lunch, then 15 euros per person, so all inclusive ended quickly. Although this day was still included in the price of the tour. . Therefore, on principle, we went to the nearest tavern for dinner.
