Very cozy and neat bungalow hotel with a good-natured owner and friendly staff, green area, good beach and good location.
Rooms are good and cleaned daily. The food is varied, tasty and high quality. Seafood, delicious cheeses, fruits, ice cream - always. Vacationers are mostly Europeans, mainly from Italy and Poland. And also France, England, Czech Republic, Slovakia, for obvious reasons, very few from Germany. Representatives of Russia and Ukraine became noticeably more this year.
Rested as a family with children, and many young people.
Now, as for pastime.
To the right of the hotel begins a street with shops, bars and taverns. I recommend going to a disco in Hersonissos, there are a lot of them, for example, New York, Camelot, Amnesia... Or Heraklion (it's 30 km from the hotel) to the largest and most fashionable nightclub - Big Fish.

I also recommend that you go to the center of Heraklion during the day - take a walk, see the port, the fortress and do shopping in stores of famous brands. But souvenirs are cheaper to buy in Stalis itself, and not in Heraklion. For example, a magnet in Stalis costs 0.5 euros, and in Heraklion the same one costs 1.5 euros. The same is true with olive oil. The same as I saw in Heraklion for 10 euros, in Stalis I took 6-7 euros... If you buy olive oil, do not take these beautiful glass souvenir bottles in souvenir shops, take them only in a supermarket in rectangular tins... this is quality and ease of transportation . Take the company "Sitia" or "Terra Creta", or consult with the seller, which brand and company is considered to be of high quality. Take more olives (see them not in jars, but in plastic sealed packaging), and cheese. Feta there is also packaged in such packages - convenient. Advice for women - do not forget about olive soap and other cosmetics based on olive oil
If you are not a fan of passive relaxation in a sun lounger or discos until the morning, I recommend renting a car, and it’s best for three days - it’s cheaper than 1 day, and believe me, you will get an unforgettable experience by driving around these amazingly beautiful coves, seeing these beaches with white sand, the sea of ​ ​ various shades - from pink to azure, and other island attractions. I recommend taking a car to Olympia Car, because everything is fair there with insurance, indeed, full hull insurance, without deceit and tricks. You can also order a car from a guide at the hotel, but it will be much more expensive, as, in fact, excursions. For example, an excursion to Heraklion organized by a guide with a visit to the Palace of Knossos costs 48 euros, and if you arrive in Heraklion on your own, you will go to the museum for 4 euros. Well, this has always been the case in any country, so I will not dwell on this, everyone determines for himself how convenient and profitable it is for him. Well, it seems, on the main issues, everything, if anything - ask. And if you go - say hello to the waitress Martina from Slovakia, and other guys, you will see - they will make your stay comfortable and unforgettable.
