3 star hotels in Balion

Bali Star saved us! Our flight to Heraklion was delayed. We got to our original hotel late. A staff between Bokking and that hotel - the hotel did not have our booking, even though we had the record. 10 pm I logged on, found a room at the Bali Star. We drove over. They were waiting for us, took our bags and guided us to the closed dining room where they served us a nice dinner. The staff were incredibly...

Staying here was absolutely amazing. Got the private pool room, you basically could enjoy the sea from the comfort of your own place. The hosts were extremely attentive, we got extra coffee and they even packed breakfast to go because our flight made us leave at 3 a.m. Definitely a great experience!

2nd time visit. Location is convenient. It is close to the beach. Clean and staff is friendly. Spacious room and with swimming pool. Breakfast is good. Relaxing bar in the evening. Sunrise view is stunning.

I recently spent 6 days at the Bali Star Resort Hotel, and I can't recommend it highly enough! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by the warm and friendly staff who made us feel right at home. The cleanliness of the entire property was impeccable, with our room always spotless and the common areas well-maintained. The breakfast was a daily highlight, offering a delicious variety of fresh...

Nothing compares to the view, the quality and everything this place offers. Amazing breakfast, a nice pool for adults and a small piece inside for kids, a restaurant and a bar. Clean rooms, superb staff. I will definitely pick this again for my next holidays

Excellent hotel!!! We enjoyed there everything, very nice place with perfect location, only few steps to the beach and if you want to explore the Crete, just rent a car (hotel will help with that) and you can go in any direction. Hotel staff were super nice and food just delicious!!! Thank You ❤️

Very good quality for this price you will not find better place. Rooms clean and new. Food good with fair price. Brakefast is ok but eggs and sussigues can be warmer. Super honey and yoghurt. Dinners very good. It was super 10 days. POLECAM

My journey was very good,but I would like to ask the hotel management why my reservation has been cancelled after 2 days that I left. I booked the room from booking.com Thank you

Very nice place, right on the beach. First of all, the beautiful and well-kept outdoor area by the pool. The pool is well maintained and cleaned daily. The rooms are clean too. Great variety of dishes that are tasty. The staff is very nice, maybe even too nice because they do not pay attention to people who, contrary to the regulations, leave towels on the sunbeds by the pool for the whole day and...

I do not recommend. - receptionist very rude. Little choice of food. All inclusive Beer 0.2, warm vodka, a small selection of alcohol. It is not possible to bring water to the room. Ice cream for kids only. problems with electricity that was turned off several times when using the air conditioning. paid for sea view rooms and were the pool. Few sun loungers at the pool that cannot be booked...

As pros, I would say that location is nice, just next to the beach. The territory has beautiful nature and there are quite nice taverns around and on the beach. All staff was speaking English and those who served at the bar were very friendly. Unfortunately, the shock I had when I saw the bathroom will stop me returning to this hotel again (a very small shower with musty curtain, and the "renovation...

Rooms were fine furniture a little dated but OK.The rooms were cleaned daily and the towels changed.Bed linen every third day. The buffet breakfast was fine except for the coffee and juice which are terrible. We also had the evening meal included as well and although the basics stayed the same salads bread etc the meat dishes have changed every night so far it's plain Greek food but OK. The two waiters...

Nice hotel at a reasonable price. Nice sea view, everything what you need is near the hotel. The most beautiful and cute beach Mythos is in 80 metres, tavernas and cocktail bar are in 1 minute too. It would be better to eat outside the hotel.

I have just returned from a weeks solo stay in this lovely hotel. From arriving to departing I was made to feel welcome by all members of staff, from management to the chatty bar and restaurant staff and the lovely cleaning ladies. The rooms were cleaned every day, comfy bed and soft clean towels. Pool area very clean and the water crystal clear. Plenty of choices of food, different varieties every...

A very nice and charming hotel!! It's very well maintained and The people running the hotel are very friendly, helpful and welcoming!! The view is extremely charming and peaceful especially at night and the food and drinks are of the highest quality! They have plenty of food and drinks to choose, so even the pickiest person can enjoy the goods there! The rooms are spacious and clean! The bathroom...

What a great family hotel in Crete/Bali. Super friendly staff, food, location, room, swimmingpool and everything is so clean :) We will come back for sure!

Really nice peacefully hotel with the best greek food. We stayed for 7 days and regret that we didn’t stay longer. Employees are cheerful and really helpful in every situation. Also talking in much launguages: English, German, French, Polish Hotel has unique swimming pool with stunning landscape. There is a bar nearby where you can get enjoyable drinks, iced coffe, ice creams while the great music...

We've been at Xidas two times now and already booked the third one. The selection of food is indeed not the biggest, however there's more then enough choices and it's always been good. Some foods are even handmade by the grandma of the stuff. The stuff itself is awesome and always very open to their guests. Never ever I've felt so welcomed in a hotel. It's fully family driven and that's where the...

Beautiful hotel, very relaxing atmosphere. The staff is very lovely and friendly and the food is all fresh and home made. Very delicious traditional Greek cuisine. Enjoyed my stay very much, will definitely come again!

We had a great time here. The hotel is located close to the beach and the view is amazing. The service was great, everyone was very kind and helpful. The room looked great and it was clean, the breakfast was tasty. Only 4 stars for 2 reasons: we asked for a double bed when we booked the room and we received twins (they compensate it with the view but still..) and because although the food was good...

The omnipresence of cats can be an advantage and the sea view was breathtaking. Breakfast was better than we expected it to be. Also everything was tidy and the rooms were cleaned every second day including towel and bedding change. The so called "sarcastic" bartender mentioned in other reviews was just a guy who liked to have a one and join guests by the bar challenging them in the drinking game,...

Nice and attentive hotelstaff. Our room was one of the renovated Maisonette apartments with such a great view, so it was much better than expected. Food was good but we would have liked more Greek cuisine in the evenings. Towel and sheet change every 2-3 days. We would have liked a cleaning of the bathroom and floors during our 10 day stay even if there are different Covid measures in place. It is...

Great team, great views, especially the sunrise! We had a lovely stay in September 2020. If you're a lazy tourist, there's a wonderful beach just 100m away in a small bay, the best you get in the area. If you're keen on exploring the island, you aren't far (1,5 hour max) from amazing spots on the south coast. Besides, the crew also organises shuttle buses to must-see sightseeing spots like Elafonisi...

Lakis and Manolis provide us a very warm welcome check in in our room.We has some raki and some beer.And just relaxed at the pool all day.Very nice vacation looking forward to revisit this place.

Beautiful place with a great view over the bay of bali. 5 min walk to the beach. The room was fairly clean but could have needed a renovation. WiFi and AC cost extra. The breakfast was average. We did not eat dinner here.

Look no further, if you are lucky enough to find a reservation, book here! Bali is a beautiful seaside town and this is the best hotel in the area. The view is unbeatable (it’s literally breathtaking no matter which way you look), breakfast is great and the staff are super friendly and welcoming. The pool is perfect and the ocean access down the cliff is really unique and beautiful.

Good location, very kindly staff. Nice place for long weekends. worth of money. Breakfast is not good and not much options for lunch and dinner

This was the best hotel experience of our life: the first thing you see when you enter is the beautiful view of the sea through the friendly lobby of the hotel. The nicest staff ever (literally!), awesome and varied breakfast on the terrace, regular BBQ events with delicious pulled beef and hamburger next to the roof pool, amazing architecture with very unique and clever solutions of using space,...

Lovely, Small Village Hotel. Spacious, clean apartments, friendly people, top service, beautiful homecooked breakfast. Quiet and picture perfect spot on harbour front in the east end of Panormos. Village and beaches in walking distance. If you want the best of Crete, no fuss, quiet and friendly atmosphere- this is a gem 🇬🇷💙

The Greek people working here are very nice! It seems to me they are always ready to do something more for the guests. The view is great. I also like the level of hygiene. There's a small but cosy yard with a pool.

What a find, our accommodation was basic but spotlessly clean, very lovely people in a beautiful part of Crete. Always room at the pool. Plenty of tavernas to eat/drink st, all within walking distance. We were here end of July, peak season, never had a problem getting a table with fantastic sea views. There are 3 beaches to choose from, again never too busy, always sunbeds available if you want and...

We booked Marelina Villas slightly unplanned as a last minute getaway. The reviews were good but I never realistically expected that it would live up to them. How wrong we were. Marelina Villas is better than we could have imagined, and absolutely perfect for a family looking for a quiet relaxing holiday, despite the peak of the school holidays everything is unhurried and not crowded, the apartments...

The hotel is very clean, very near to the beach, all Staff very kind and friendly. I will come back again, thank you for a very nice stay☀️🙏💖

Nice place to stay in Panormo. Breakfast is not very varied but everything is tasty. Rooms are clean, WiFi is free, service is great. Special thanks to Vasil and George for the warm welcome and help during our stay!

Very kind and helpful staff! Adorable room and a lovely pool. Breakfast served in the morning with all the basic stuff. Thank you so much for the accommodation!!! 😊

Nice quiet clean hotel. Room was a good size with its own balcony. Reception girls were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was all cold offerings. Slightly lacking in the bathroom towel refresh and soap/shampoo replacement department. Hotel is near beaches, supermarkets and some excellent restaurants especially the Anchor. Rethymnon is only half an hour away by bus. Whilst the village itself is charming...

Breakfast could be better,because you don't have many options and you get the same everyday. And when you have for 10 days the same breakfast,it's not so nice. Room was very nice and clean. Just that in hotel one room is without Balkony and we got exactly the room ? So you can't dry your stuff from beach or smoke if you are a smoker.

The Hotel is beautiful, especially the rooms are very nice, the personal is absolute friendly and give you the feeling being home. We loved it.

a wonderful hotel where you can feel the authentic Greek spirit. Also very clean rooms and other hotel areas. The best thing about Kirki was its staff, especially the kitchen people and the wonderful food they prepared. If you want to feel cozy vibes and be greeted as at home go to Kirki villige 🇬🇷💙 best wishes from Lithuania 🇱🇹 ☺️

From the first moment this place became our second home. The atmosphere, the people, the hospitality are worth a thousand stars! In the beginning as a couple and now with a baby here we always find what we need to calm down completely.The quality of sleep is at least excellent, with the microclimate favoring as well. Food based on the Mediterranean diet with ingredients and raw materials that you do...

Such a lovely hotel! The hotel owner was very attentive and just the loveliest. The view is amazing and so is the pool and the food! Me and my boyfriend stayed for 10 nights and we will definitely be going back.

Most relaxing friendly atmosphere you could wish for and clean and well run. I have had a delightful 3 weeks here. Food is very good too. Will definitely be coming back.

A good room for the price. It is a small hotel so not crowded at all. Sea view, very nice pool. Very good for relaxation.

Hotel has a big swimming pool which isn't crowded of people, sometimes you can enjoy being alone in all pool area. Rooms are modest and tidy with air conditioning. Hotel is in very good place of the Crete, you can travel easily from here to any direction. Village of Panormos with many Tavernas is just about 1,5km away. Owners of the hotel are very kind and helpful. Recommend this hotel for calm holidays

Low wifi level, poor rooms, 1 km to Panormo. But cute owner, good view, and the best stone beach i ever see - crystal water with no garbage but funny colour fish.

We were a bit scared when choosing this hotel because we haven’t seen many reviews about it but we were glad we chose it in the end. Pro: great quality food, lots of activities in the hotel because they had people that were doing different games all day until late at night, great staff, very clean rooms, very close to the beach, not very far from Heraklion airport. Things that i would have liked to...

Pros: The hotel room was lovely and clean, the pools were nice and we really enjoyed the water park. The entertainers are amazing although it is quite geared towards French people. The food was nice although quite repetitive. Cons: We found the staff to be a bit rude at points. When inquiring about late check out - they did not seem to want to help at all (and we asked on 3 occasions).The drinks were...

Amazing hotel. The food is diverse, for anyone and everyone, very delicious! The rooms are clean, we had cleaning service every two days, and all was great here. The hotel is close to the beach, has various activities and is suitable for visitors of any age. The staff is friendly and helpful. There are nuances like no hair dryer in the room, but I am a spoiled child by Turkey hotels, which are just...

The location is great. The beach is just down the road. The service at the restaurant and the different bars were very kind and always smiling. One of the receptionists was slightly rude but did not pay too much attention to her. Our bedroom was very spacious for a family of 4. Our shower was weird... there was no holder to hand the shower head. You have to hold it while rinsing your hair. The hotel...

Amazing food, very nice and clean rooms. Friendly reception staff, always smiling. Maybe too strict opening hours of bars. You need to go a few (200) meters to reach the nearest beach. The beach had a lot of water activities, it was fun! The area around the resort has everything you need, shops cars rentals and even a small emergency room. This place is great for a family vacation, friendly animators...

We had an excellent family vacation here this summer. The staff was very professional across the board, around the pool, etc. Food and drink was very plentiful, especially the greek pastries, olives, ouzo drinks, beer. The outdoor eating area was excellent. My only knock is that the hotel has no beach area reserved, so all inclusive does not include the beach. You have to rent chairs from another...

Great hotel, nice modern rooms. Two pool areas, right next to beach. George from breakfast was really friendly and welcoming!

I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the entire crew at Nostos Beach Hotel for making our stay truly memorable. A special shout-out goes to the main chef and our waiter at the hotel restaurant—whose hospitality and warm attitude really made a difference in our experience. The cleaning staff was also wonderful, ensuring that our room was tidy and comfortable every day. The hotel itself is...

I had the best experience in this hotel. I had a room with sea view which was awesome. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I recommend you this place 100%

It’s was my fist vacation in Greece and I planned everything by myself for the first time too. I’ve picked up the hotel and the place relying on the recommendations and I wasn’t disappointed! The place is wonderful, hotel was impressive and our room was clean and very comfortable! Hotel is very close to the beach ,I’d say it’s almost on the beach ,views was amazing and unforgettable. There was a restaurant...

Didn't stay in this hotel but went everyday to have a cool beerand watch the ocean lovely place in a great position next to the quiet bay..

My Favourite place! The guys at the restaurant were absolutely amazing! I went there every night with my boyfriend and we both loved it! We will be back! They welcomed us with our name and even had a long chat with us! We loved them! Thank you so so much you made out holiday extra special! We love Bali!

We are just coming back from vacation. I really enjoyed everything. Don’t believe bad reviews. The hotel is in a fabulously beautiful and convenient location, where everything is close, but we enjoyed the peace, natural beauty and hospitality. All rooms face the sea with wonderful views. Rooms are spacious, bright, after renovation, with spacious balconies. We lived in a building in Mykonos, a bit...

Fair 3 star hotel with all-inclusive option. Pros: centrally located between two nice beaches, easy parking; newly renovated rooms with Wi-Fi (we had Standard room); very tasty and fresh food, the variety of courses has definitely exceeded my 3-star expectations; well-motivated staff really try to serve guests at their best; rooms and all around are very clean. Cons: soundproof of rooms is pretty...

What a nice hotel. Really great new rooms, spacious and very clean, and lovely bathroom. The pool is nice but I feel it needs a bit more space for loungers. Our 1st lunch was so so, not many options, but that's OK. I like the way that the rooms are spread into different blocks so its much quieter. Once you've checked in, your really on your own to work out how the routine of the hotel works. I presume...

Very friendly staff, I recomand this place if you want to relaxe. The only inconvenience was the internet connection. The hotel services deserve three stars…Enjoy!!!

Reading some reviews I was little bit affraid, but in the end of Sept 2020 it was very nice one week stay with all inclusive. Superior rooms are very nice and new, aircon included in price, some with seaview ane nice pool open 9-21. 4 beaches in walking distance, 2 max 250m, biggest one with even natural shade from big tree. All inclusive is not such as you can have in 4* hotel in Egypt or so, but...

So beutiful place for holidays. Foot is so delicious and personal is so kind and sweet :3 I love this place.

Friendly check in. Rooms were nice and comfortable but the view of sea/beach/mountain is the star of the show. During our stay, the pool area was extremely quiet but we might have got lucky with that! Good location for visiting two nearby beaches and lots of restaurants are close too. Breakfast was good, some good authentic greek options and super friendly service!

We loved the location with great view from balcony on the whole bay and great swimming pool. Staff was friendly and attentive to our needs, even helped with luggage. The hotel has many stairs but also lifts and two different entrances allow you to access different parts of Bali - everything important is 10min walk max. Very clean and minimalistic design of rooms and great breakfasts by the pool. Snack...

Stayed here two separate nights whilst touring Crete ..beautiful location surrounded by sea and mountains.. rooms are very clean and modern .. breakfast was buffet and good but a little more choice would be perfect .. super friendly staff .. close to bars and sea view restaurants .. swimming pool is small but very adequate

Spent a week here in August 2023, beautiful hotel, very clean and modern. Staff are very friendly and accommodating, and can’t do enough for you. Has two pools on different levels, one for swimming, one more for paddling-never struggled for a lounger, probably helped by the fact it’s for adults only. Hotel is on multiple levels so can involve a lot of stairs, but would recommend it totally. Food and...

We are only leaving in 4 Days, but we don't want to go! It has been such a lovely experience! The staff makes it very unique, everyone is friendly and accommodating. We are spending our anniversary here and they went out of their way to make this day special for us. The rooms are lovely and cool with it being 40 Degrees outside and the location is right in the middle of Bali which makes it perfect...

Small hotel right on the beach where we spent 16 days for a wonderful holiday. Thanks for that....!! We'll definitely be back.

Visited for two weeks in August. The hotel is up in the mountains above Bali which makes for a peaceful environment but think a car to get around was needed unless you want to do a lot of walking/use the minibus service to get to and from Bali. The manager stelios speaks excellent English and is very welcoming and helpful and was always going out of his way to help us when we asked. His son worked...

Just got back from a short stay here . Its a really nice well designed small hotel/apartments. The staff are all very friendly and hardworking. The all- inclusive buffet has something to suit all customers . The apartments are spacious with 2 bedrooms, the lower ones also have a swim up pool. The main pool is a nice size surrounded by mountain and sea views. Its far enough away from the main strip...

Absolutely amazing place to stay over. Helpful, caring staff. Nice clean outdoor swimming pool surrounded by beds with umbrellas. Every meal is a Buffet consisting delicious treats. Rooms are big enough, clean. There is a fridge, cooking hob, kettle, iron, microwave, hairdryer in them. Kitchen also contained sets of glasses, plates and so on. Our upper floor room had two balconies. Ground floor rooms...

Overall a very good experience. Stelios is always helpful and looking after the guests. Is a relaxed atmosphere compared to bigger hotels

This was our first family vacation in Crete and we were surprised how friendly and helpful people in Greece are, especially mr. Stelios! This place is family-baby friendly, it’s further from the beach but it’s ok to walk there. We loved the swimming pool, Mountain View and that the hotel is not crowded. In addition, we could check out later which is great when you have small kids and you’re leaving...

First of all I would like to thank Stelios, the hotel manager, very much. On the first day of our holiday, I realised that I had forgotten an important medicine at home. After I told Stelios about this, he immediately took me to the next pharmacy and the pharmcist there was fortunately able to give me the medicine. So our holiday was saved. Stelios is a super employee who is always ready with advice...

The staff was very relaxed and smiling; the food was mediocre, but we always found something nice to eat for kuds and adults alike. The view is stunning from the main building. The guests are numerous and you can have that crowded feeling. When we arrived in the late evening, they told us that only 1 room is available for the 4 of us, but it's a familiy room. After 2 night we could move to seaview...

This is a real place to relax ! Many thanks to the Manager and his staff , each one at the reception , the bar , the spa and the restaurant are amazing . The food and the drinks are fine. We had a lovely time and we will come back next September!! Very nice beach service

Overall, I am happy with my stay at this hotel. Nice staff, comfortable rooms. Unfortunately, in my opinion, the food leaves much to be desired. The hotel is on a hillside and has many stairs. It is worth paying attention if you do not like walking up and down. I do not consider this a disadvantage, especially since the upper floors have a wonderful view of the sea and mountains. On the beach, almost...

I had an unforgettable stay at this hotel! Everything was great, but the staff really stood out. I would especially like to mention the bartender Ensi Dika,His kindness, professionalism and ability to create a cozy atmosphere really impressed. Many thanks to all the staff for the excellent service!

I have mixed feelings. If you’re in need of some warm weather and to spend time on a calm beach, this is definitely a great place to book. They cater to a small budget so food choices are edible and a little variation from day to day, but I can’t say anything I ate was “great” and for some reason they have no deserts, apart from ice cream and fruit, I guess that eats in to profit margins too much....

Excellent 3 star hotel! First line, cozy beach, calm sea (location) surrounded by majestic mountains... Very pleasant and helpful hotel and restaurant staff. Delicious food, light wine, selection of drinks... Democratic atmosphere .. Entertainment and dancing in the lounge bar . Everything was great! A wonderful vacation for reasonable money! I want to come back here.. I RECOMMEND! 🌟🌟🌟
