The hotel was advised by the Hot Tour Bank at the suggestion of Joinup. Gathered for half a day, there was no information about the hotel on the site, they took a "pig in a poke". At the Heraklion airport I met the Kalamaki Travel transfer, it took an hour and a half, a taxi can take 1 hour (90 euros). It was a pleasant impression from the owners who met us at 1 am (the reception is open until 22.00), showed us the hotel right away, offered to swim in the pool, settled in a beautiful room. In the room we had: two rooms, a kitchen, a bathroom with a toilet, a balcony-terrace with access to the pool and the sea. The hotel is located on the beach, for two stars - it's super. The beach is wild, sand and pebble. You can enter the shallow sea only in water slippers or crocs to be comfortable. Near the hotel there is a shop at the Almira hotel, if you are too lazy to walk further than 350 meters, you can order vegetables and fruits here in the morning, by 14.00 your order will be brought to this store. It’s better to cook on your own, you can skip breakfast, you won’t be tied to a schedule: sleep as much as you want, go to the beach when you want, go on excursions. You can rent a car on the spot and travel around the island yourself, we took it from Kalamaki Travel - we liked it. To the right of the hotel there is 100 meters away: ATM - withdraw money from the card, a tavern with live music and delicious cuisine. To the left, through the underpass, and to the left and up right away, past the ice cream van, further to the right - there is a wonderful confectionery (everything is very tasty), a little further a small supermarket, the prices are normal. For example, a pack of six 1.5 liter bottles of water costs 1.5 euros; delicious sausages (6 pieces) - 1.8 euros; tomatoes - 1.5 euros. Excursions are expensive (55-65 euros per person), but they are worth it. Impressions from the island of Crete are wonderful. Cons (not dependent on the hotel): mosquitoes bite and cicadas crackle in unison. Buy more mosquito fumigators at home (three pieces) and it will be easier for you to endure their presence. Good hotel, hospitable Greek family, sunny Crete made our holiday unforgettable. I would like to return to Greece once again and longer, and take a closer look at everything. Come, you won't regret it!
