Where to stay in Balion

I'm not really sure why this resort is bookable in England? This hotel is NOT for English families. Everything is catered towards French, Czech, Romania & Greek! Read the reviews carefully before booking if you are English!

I traveled with my family, my parents and my sister from Moldova, it was the first time we visited the hotel and we were pleased.

The hotel is very good, the personel very kind and it's worth coming here. The food at the restaurant is very good and the service as well

Well comming is on top of the top. Food is exsellent and atmosphere amazing. Cleaning quallity whery hight and rooms are beautifull

the food was very good, I really liked how the reception staff and the rest behaved, the games of the day were very interesting, the music was very good, we really liked the aqua park and the hotel was extraordinarily beautiful and the room was the same

Good hotel, I was on holidays with my daughter and we liked everything, the sea, the hotel, the food and the staff. We recommend Atali.

This is the best hotel I’ve ever visited. Everything is amazing. We arrived at 6:00 AM and personnel gave us a room at 9:00 AM, but usually it’s after 2:00 PM. They also gave us better room than we booked. Breakfasts were delicious! And I would like to say thank you to every person who works here. Everyone is so kind and friendly. Only good emotions. I made a little present for hotel - book with small...

A Wonderful Stay – Highly Recommended! We had such a lovely time at Bali Star Resort! The owners are incredibly kind and welcoming – true people of the heart. We came with our 8-month-old baby and were so touched by how child-friendly and caring everyone was. To our surprise, we even received an upgrade to a room with a private pool, which made our stay extra special. The food was absolutely delicious...

Well what can I say about the Bali Diamond. Wow, best hotel we have ever stayed in Europe. Management and staff so welcoming and helpful. Our beautiful bedroom was huge, modern and so well layed out. So nice to sleep in such a comfy and quiet room. The hotel is maintained to a high standard. We had a fabulous balcony overlooking the mountains and beach. The breakfast ladies were lovely and so hard...

Good location, between Heraklion and Rethymno. Very nice three beaches nearby. One is extremely close, just 2min walk. Nice teritory, pool inside. Very deliciuos and rich breakfast and dinner. Few bars working till night. A lot of souvenirs shops beside.

Bali Star 🌟 made our visit to Crete unforgettable ❤️ Me and my son visited for a week in May ,first time in Crete . From start to finish we had the most amazing holiday experience. The hotel is situated by the beach ⛱️ in a beautiful quiet bay but with enough restaurants and shops for all your needs. There is a little train available to take you around on the 4 bays that consists Bali. The room was...

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...

Perfectly adequate but do not expect a 5* if you've not paid 5* prices. Incredibly beautiful surroundings and amazing views from the rooms. Nice staff. Tons of food selection and all fresh/tasty. Delicious desserts which makes a change for an all-inclusive. Good selection of drinks. Rooms are spacious and very clean with comfortable beds, but it's not the 5* experience you'd hope for. Location: stunning...

We loved staying here! Great staff that make you feel at home, especially thank you Regina we will miss you! As a group of 5 friends we stayed at the green villa, and we absolutely enjoyed every minute of it. Mostly everybody try their best to make your stay comfortable. Maybe the food is not the best but you get more than what you pay for. I would recommend renting a car to be able to visit the...

My stay with Filion hotel was one of my best vacations ever. The place is beautiful, every meal is great and the hotel's service is perfect. All the staff members are friendly except one person at reception, who I won't mention here, I believe everyone should be nice. Anyway, I highly recommend this hotel if you want a peaceful and chill vacation.

We enjoyed our stay despite the cold weather. All staff are friendly, polite and helpful. All facilities are clean. The restaurant tables are cleaned each time between diners. As a vegetarian, I especially appreciated the tasty vegetarian meals that were mostly labelled

An absolutely fantastic holiday staying here. The rooms were clean and spacious. There was a bath and shower in the bathroom which was unexpected. The food was incredible and a variety to choose from. The staff were also welcoming and friendly. A nice spacious balcony too and we had a nest in the corner which was lovely to watch as the parents were feeding 3 babies. There’s a lot of birds around which...

We really enjoyed our stay in Filion Hotel. The room was spacious, fresh towels and cleaned everyday. The staff were very helpful with a quick and efficient service. Nothing was too much for them. We like a quiet holiday so the location was really good for us. The pools and areas were very clean. We were also well and truly entertained every evening whilst enjoying some cocktails.

Firstly, as other reviews state, yes it is a mainly French hotel but they animation team were very inclusive and the guests were all friendly and how hard is it for us English to say bonjour with a smile? The hotel is superb, we didn't pay tourist tax and the safe in the room was included. The WiFi is fantastic and all of the staff were great and help is always available. The food is what you would...

The actual hotel, accommodation, food all of a good standard, the Hotel staff very friendly and helpful. The main problem was that the Animation team were all French and everything was spoken in French ( with the odd English word thrown in) all the games were conducted in French, but as the hotel was over 90% French they really enjoyed it, but we felt excluded. Before and after the sessions, the animation...

Hotel Resol has a family atmosphere, it is not a luxury hotel, but everywhere is clean and the staff is friendly. The rooms are modern, the advantage is that some have a private jacuzzi or pool. The location of the hotel is especially great, it is close to the beach and the center. As for the food, which is often criticized, the food was always fresh, tasty, everyone could choose from various side...

Well we read a few mixed reviews so was a little unsure of what we were going to get. I went with my mum and my young son. During our stay it was mostly French holidaymakers, this just ment the staff spoke mostly French and very little English. But everyone was polite and friendly. The entertainment wow what to say it was done by a small team but the energy put into it was amazing. I would just love...

We had a fantastic 6 night stay at the Resol Hotel. We stayed the room with private pool. Room was nice and clean. The hotel location is superb...Bali village with sea and hill views, and within easy reach of cafes, restaurants, shops, beach when walking the main street in front of the hotel. In beautiful sandy Livadi beach sun loungers & parasols provided free by hotel. (6 min walk) All inclusive...

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...

We stayed at Bali Diamond Hotel for four nights with two other groups of friends, drawn in by its adults-only policy. The location was lovely—right on the beachfront—but the beach had a large inflatable assault course for kids, which didn’t match the adult-only vibe. Luckily, a quieter and nicer beach was just a short drive away. The room was okay, but we had repeated issues with the electricity tripping...

Room 114 has a balcony big enough to accommodate about 10 loungers and a view that you won't tire of in a hurry, day or night, unfortunately it's 52 steps up from reception/bar. Because of the geography, the hotel is built on a slope and therefore consists of a series of levels connected by a series of confusing stairs and lifts. Also confusing is the absence of a pool bar (lovely pool). Psarapoula...

This Is Such A Gem Of A Hotel . You Really Need To Go There . Its Positioning Right on the beach. Again A Fantastic Stay At This Wonderful Hotel. Thank You To All The Staff Who Made It Such A Good Holiday, Your Stars Special Thanks From Keith As Well, We Will Be Back Next Year

Bali Diamond is a fabulous hotel right on the beach. We had a sea view room with a stunning view, this did mean a lot of stairs to get there but it was worth it! There are lifts if you need them though. All staff were friendly and the hotel was spotless. Easy walking distance to either the port or the opposite direction to another beach. All local restaurants we tried were excellent with again lovely...

Had an excellent stay at the Bali Diamond. Nice welcome on arrival and helped with cases to our room. Nicos explained every part of the room and made sure we were settled in properly. The bar area was clean and well stocked with great food and beers. The room was kept clean and well maintained by the polite and helpful staff. All in all, our stay was brilliant and we had a great time. Thank...

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 were two families from the UK visiting Crete and chose to stay at the Bali Mare Hotel. The location is amazing, and the owner, Haris, was very helpful. I had some trouble with LoveHoliday because they didn’t book us for an extra day to save money, but Haris kindly let us stay an extra 10 hours in the hotel, which was a big favour. The place is wonderful — just a 5-minute walk from the hotel to the...

Super hotel!!!1000 recommended . Good hospitality and good food!!!!! My friends my love!!!! I will say to everyone to come

The room was spotless, modern, and well-equipped with everything I needed — comfortable bed, fast Wi-Fi, and a beautiful view. Housekeeping was consistent and thorough each day. I especially appreciated the attention to detail in the décor and amenities. The location is ideal — close to all the main attractions but still quiet enough to relax. The breakfast buffet was a highlight: fresh, delicious...

Dear Aris , Thank you very much for the kindness, professionalism and positive energy with which you greeted us every day during our stay. The warm and friendly atmosphere you created at the bar made our holiday even more pleasant. You always served us with a smile on your lips and the best cocktails - but also with a good word and a dose of good mood. It was a real pleasure meeting you

I had a marvellous time in Bali Mare hotel. The staff was very helpful. The food was tasty and the hotel was very clean. I enjoy the stay.

Unfortunately, our experience at the hotel was overshadowed by the rude and aggressive behavior of one of the staff members — Clara. We were subjected to unjustified shouting and even threats over a very minor situation. Instead of calmly explaining the rules, Clara reacted with hostility, raising her voice and speaking to us in an intimidating and disrespectful way. What was especially disturbing...

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...

Keep calm and relax relax relax👌 good hotel

We stayed at this absolutely perfect boutique hotel small, intimate, and beautifully designed with a charming Greek atmosphere. From the very first moment, we felt like we had arrived at the home of close friends. The owners, a lovely couple who live on the property, welcomed us with warmth and care. Everything was done with love from the cozy rooms to the thoughtful hospitality and the spot on recommendations...

From the moment we arrived until our departure, we felt completely at home every second. The hotel is newly renovated, and the rooms are incredibly comfortable and beautifully furnished. We had a room with pool access, which was the absolute highlight for my daughter. Breakfast included two types of freshly baked bread and freshly squeezed orange juice, fruit, vegetables, etc. Whether it was mini donuts...

Zoe hotel was the best decission how to spend a good holiday with family. There is a special person Nina We would like to thank her for making us at home. It is situated close to the beach, close to the centre of everything.It is surrounded by the unique flowers as well.

amazing staff, so nice and welcoming, they look after your every need. they treat you like family. my boyfriend and i are 19 years old travelling together for the first time and they made us more than welcome. the view of the sea is spectacular and food is tasty, fresh squeezed orange juice and breakfast was scrumptious. the location is perfect right in the centre of everything you could need or want...

Very close to the beach with beautiful sea view from our room. The place is very pretty just like in the pictures and the stuff are very nice.

Absolutely gorgeous place staff so friendly and extremely helpful Rooms are basic but provide all you need...cleaned daily and fresh bedding and towels every day

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

Very beautiful and clean hotel. We just had booked breakfast but this was very good.

Excellent location and great breakfast. Beach chairs are not included as the hotel doesn’t have its own beach spot - slightly disappointing if you don’t know.

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%

This is NOT a 4 star hotel. I think it’s important people know what they’re booking. These are essentially studio apartments with a below average buffet restaurant. But even then, the studios are equipped with nothing but a fridge. Ours didn’t have so much as a teaspoon. There is none of the service you’d expect from a 4 star hotel. You’re very much left to fend for yourself. The staff were unfriendly...

Clean rooms, daily cleaning. The bathroom stinks a little but it is manageable if you leave the fan on. Great service, friendly personel and owner, good breakfast. Amazing sea view. Recommended

We had an amazing time! 2 pools, great breakfast, breathtaking views, kid friendly, exceptional staff! The hotel is really close to the beach, good restaurants nearby. Especially Nick, who works at the reception, was extremely helpful and professional. 5 stars & we will be back!

Very good and warm aparthotel. Breakfasts are not so differently, but served on the last floor with the best sea view. Very friendly and nice personal. Cozy and warm pool. Parking near the hotel. 5 minutes to the beach, but keep in mind that the descent is very steep, so it’s a little difficult with baby carriage, but possible.

This is an excellent place to stay at if you are visiting Bali, Crete. The views are incredible, the location is hard to beat, and the staff is kind and go the extra mile. You can walk in most places and the room was clean and quite. The breakfast was great as well. It was our favorite place and our biggest regret was not spending more time there. Excellent experience all around. Note: The hotel...

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! 🌟🌟🌟

We were a large family group staying in a nearby hotel (no pool or bar) Unfortunately we had to check out at 11am but couldn’t get into our following accommodation until 4pm We chanced upon Ormos Atalia as and asked reception if we could use the facilities for the afternoon, there was a small charge but the lady on reception was just so nice and couldn’t do enough for us, I wouldn’t hesitate recommending...

I stayed at the Osmos travelling alone great rooms in a top notch part of Bali, close to the centre and all the beaches. There is a hill to get to it but you can take steps or gradual lane. Lovely views across the bays and the mountains. Staff really friendly and very helpful, rooms very clean , basic bathrooms but totally functional and all you need for a holiday. Food is traditional greek lovely...

Recently stayed for a week with husband and our 9 year old son. The views are incredible for a start, the staff are Friendly and helpful, the food although not much variety for 2 vegetarians was tasty, would suit meat eaters. Food was fresh though, breakfast expecially was lovely, the pool area is so chilled out, quiet and relaxing. There are cats roaming the grounds who we loved fussing a feeding...

We have had the best time staying at this Hotel. Laki and Christiana are truly amazing and have made our Holiday, nothing was ever a issue. Room was lovely and views are breathtaking. We will definitely be back Next year.

The views from this hotel are amazing. Rooms are fit for purpose we had everything we needed. Pool area was nice and clean. Food was OK including meat dishes and vegetarian dishes, my two criticisms would be that there wasn't any signs telling you what each dish was, and not a great selection of puddings, but we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Staff were very friendly and helpful

This is the 6th time we have retured to Ormos Atalia for our family summer holiday and once again it was great!! Food and drink was good - apartment comfortable and staff were a pleasure to deal with - we really enjoyed our stay.

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.

Best hotel I visited last 2 years

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,...

Beautiful, cosy, extremely well managed. Outstanding location. Pure joy

One of the most positively surprising experience recently. The hotel is close to the beach (less than 5 minutes walk), situated upon a small hill overlooking the local beach. You have sea view from practically all rooms, but the higher up you get, the better the view of course. The owner as well as the management company are extremely accommodating. You will get a welcome basket of fruits, water, and...

I highly recommend !!! The rooms are exactly as in the photos, spacious and spotless, the bed that best suits you for a holiday room, hot water 24 hours a day and a very nice view from the comfortable balcony they have. Bali forever ♡

Highly recommended. Brand new. Very clean. 100 m to the beach, with its own parking, which is vital in Bali. 10 min to another beach. Beds are great and they offer different pillows which is a 5-star level. Wifi works great and free. Breakfast are included in their rest and they provide 10% discount on other meal. Hosts (a local family) are very responsive and the boss Georgos is the best. The reality...

Very good location, warm welcome, dreamy landscapes, what more ...

Great experience,everything new, very clean,the view over Bali and beach is nice.The owner is verry friendly,every morning we meet at breakfast at his tavern located very close to apartment.
