Hotels on first line in Heraklio Town

The biggest hit is the avocado restaurant. The fact, that the pool and beach bar close so early is a big let down, but the main bar is opened until 1am. The personal is very friendly and helpful

My best holidays of my life ! The food was amazing; the pools were ok even if one with salty water which might not be ok for everyone; the beach is one step from the hotel, there are beach sport available with sealing ; the proposed trips are so cool with montain 4x4, and a boat trip to Santorini Island; the kid's club is very creative and multi languages

I payed extra for bungalow with pool front. Nice clean room with large balcony. Pools are large and with optimal temperature at least for me. Beach is really nice with sand and pebbles

I really enjoyed my stay here. Don't let people complaining about the power station to the right and a river flowing to the sea and the left discourage you. Both are far and you don't really notice

Had a great holyday. Excelent food. Nice rooms. Great beach and swimingpools. The SPA in the place to visit and enjoy.

There are large but smooth rocks in the sea itself, but only for 2 meters or so, than it is sand again. Restaurant has smaller variety of food, mainly for lunches, but dinners are better

The juice machine doesn’t work and just pours water. It’s a lovely area though, beautiful beach, big supermarket across the road and some lovely restaurants around

Very clean, spotless in the lounge as well as the room which had clean sheets regularly, breakfast was delicious and staff were incredibly friendly. There was a very large swimming pool area as well

The walk to the beach is just 5 minutes and taxi to the city center is relatively cheap (13€)

We then found we needed to be here for another 3 nights. The man at the reception was extremely helpful with getting hold of easy jet etc and securing us a place to stay for the next 3 nights

A Beautiful Hotel with Good Services, Very Close To The Cretan Sport Stadium at Ammoudara beach. Youth and Sport Team Leaders Love it.

We stayed at Vanisko Hotel for 3 nights. Everything about our experience was wonderful. The buffet breakfast was magnificent - fruit, vegetables, cheese, pastries, coffee, juice all the best quality

Very friendly staff, perfect position near the beach, nice dinner with rice, pasta, meat and fish, lots of salads and vegetables. I really cannot understand why lots of people said never again

Me and my family with a 4-year-old boy really cannot criticize anything. Towel changes and room service daily!!! One of the best hotels where I have personally been in Greece and we've visited lots of islands

We have been at Marirena Hotel just some days ago and I would like to underline that everything was perfect. I was surprised because lots of people sent descriptions that are not real

Great staff happy boss 3 star hotel should be more Happy days

Friendly staff. Good location

Decent, clean rooms, free Wi-Fi but too modest and monotonous breakfasts and not always adequate dinners with a stingy owner who doesn't like his guests

The 'gym' is a bout 6 pieces of resistance equipment and the swimming pool is very small, outdoor and unheated - so pretty much unusable until the height of the season

This is old hotel, which have been renovated. Good service and location, personal vary friendly. Little bit overpriced for Greece.

GREETINGS FROM OPEN GREECE! I've never stayed at this hotel, but after visiting the website and watching the promotional video, I realized just how brilliant they are—they can confidently afford to advertise like this! In my mind, their approach to guests is just as bold and ingenious! Bravo!!! 5 stars!

Ok but feels "cheap" for a 5* The parking it's a problem. The personnel are great. So does the breakfast.

Our family room was ok, and the view from the pool is good, even if the terrace is very windy and the water is cold. But do not go for the half-board option. The food on offer was very poor

A few days away in Heraklion found us staying at the Aquila Atlantis Hotel. The Aquila offers you everything you may need whilst staying in Heraklion and worthy of its 5* rating

Sea, beach, varied food

Excellent stay, excellent environment and fantastic staff. The only lack - a single diet and little greek meal made of meat. I salute: Little Anna, Great Anna and Nektarios - Beach Bar.

We've stayed in Dessole Dolpin Bay resort for our family vacation and LOVED IT! Food is absolutely delicious, so many options even picky eaters will find something. Employees are so nice and welcoming

Nice beach, good food and very helpful staff.

The hotel and beach were very beautiful nad well-kept. Staff was helpful and kind, always smiling. Entertainment was well-organized by likeable animators (especially water gym)

Very kind personnel, clean rooms (daily room service). Pools and animation team were perfect. Big waves most of the time. Really good food.

This was my first experience of an all inclusive beach resort (I'm more a city break kind of person) and I think the bar has been set high for future ventures - I'm sold! This resort was amazing on every level

Beautiful beaches, plenty of space for everyone, really good and varied food/drink choices, and lots of activity options available

We were there for the last week before they will close for the winter season and yet they kept the food quality at the highest level with all the choice we had at the start of the week

Agapi beach resort was a dream! The staff are all incredible and friendly. Very informative and accommodating

The staff at Agapi Beach Resort are incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring that every guest feels welcome and well-cared for. Their commitment to exceptional service truly sets this resort apart

Could not be more positive about Agapi Beach Resort. Firstly all the staff are so warm and welcoming, nothing is too much trouble. They work exceptionally hard and are a credit to the hotel

Hotel has own beach with enough seats, the same with the swimming pool. Rooms are clean and well equiped. The shower is not very comfortable, mostly with the sheet, small or no window, so it is very hot there

Pool and beach were lovely again very clean, pool was a great size. Never struggled getting a sunbed no matter what time of day. Overall great stay and would recommend

It's a great place for your vacation. It has beautiful green territory, tasty food, nice views, big enough private beach. Also, staying in a bungalow is a nice option

Only two shows on a week in the evening and only a small pool for kids with a tiny play area, would look for more activities in the day and for us a little splash park would be great

Stayed at Creta Beach for a week at the beginning of August (Family of 4, two adults and two under 5). Short 20-30 minute transfer from the airport

Only issue for us (I should of done more research so nothing against the hotel) but not much entertainment for the kids

To enterteinmant: There are some daytime activities such as water polo, beach volleyball, water gymnastics, etc. Andreas (one of the entertainers) in particular did a really good job (We liked him a lot)

The pool bar offers drinks, snacks and ice cream at all times. What was quite annoying after a few days: The music playlist is hardly changed and after 1 - 2 hours the same songs are always playing

Each time we were told that it would be taken care of and nothing happened. At some point I started bringing towels to reception by myself. This is unacceptable! I hope that the problem will be dealt with in the future

We always had to leave the air conditioning on the lowest setting at night, otherwise we couldn't sleep. What you need to know; the hotel has no elevators! This must be clear for people with walking difficulties

About the pool and beach area: The pool and beach area are very clean and there is plenty of space and sun loungers. The sea is incredibly beautiful and clean. The pool is not special but is sufficient

The hotel complex is small, manageable and well maintained. As a result, the hotel was not overcrowded. About the room: The room was well equipped and clean. However, the room was very small

I personally did not see or use the swimming pool (oops) as I was too busy travelling about and just went to the beach to swim

The beach is closeby (walking distance), there's a bus stop for the local bus service right in front of the hotel (with the name of the hotel) and there's plenty of small shops nearby to get those last items you need

At the pool of the hotel you can relax and enjoy the great holiday atmosphere. You may also find wonderful excursions. (Haris, a wonderful lady that can help you with these)

You can extend your checkout if needed. The beach is roughly 4 minutes walk from the hotel, asphalt road (no hills or steps)

I booked a half-board arrangement (so breakfast and dinner) and while breakfast wasn't the most exciting (mostly due to my own preferences, they had different items available, I am just a bit picky when it comes to breakfast), dinner was served from the menu of the excellent attached restaurant (restaurant Maxim)

While I did enjoy the half-board arrangement, ordering a la carte is a recommendation! They were even kind enough to let me keep my salad from the half-pension when I did! Back to the hotel: Rooms are cleaned daily and the hotel itself looks clean and tidy

Excellent service with high standards of hygiene. The food at the restaurant is exceptional. Here you can try all Cretan cuisine and feel satisfied. Congratulations to the owners for such a fantastic work.

We stayed at the Petousis Hotel & Suites for a week, we took the swim up Suite with the private pool. The room is spacious and clean, the bed so comfortable and the pool was clear and clean

The staff was amazing and would go out of their way to help you with anything you needed. The food was amazing! By far the best food we had on the island. Try the fried zucchini, it is to die for!

Fairly new and modern looking rooms. Rain shower is lovely! We went for a regular room, which is quite big already, plenty of space, TV, mini fridge, 2 person bed (2 single beds), desk, balcony

The room and the grounds were in excellent condition and you could see that the staff take great pride in keeping it that way. It is a bountiful boutique hotel with excellent accommodations

Bus stop in front of hotel, which goes directly to Heraklion. The restaurant/bar/tavern that is located against the hotel has good food as well. Definitely recommend this hotel

I had booked a sea view room and end up with a corner sea view room and the balcony is very hot and noisy with the air conditioner engine outside

Herbs Garden restaurant has the best staff and food is excellent. Portions are generous and the half board option has a good selection across the 3 courses offered

An asset to the hotel was the friendly personnel, especially Maria at the reception. She showed professionally friendly attitude, very good smile and was ready to help with all questions. Certainly an asset to the team

Nice boutique hotel, well located within walking distance from all amusement spots. Excellent view from the roof garden on the port and old fortress

Pros - bathroom was small, but shower was large and excellent water pressure - front staff was personable and helpful with dining suggestions - easy walk to main attractions - air conditioner worked well Cons - bed creaked when getting on/off, but didn't affect our sleep - elevator is a bit old fashioned, where you open the door to enter

A convenient bus, only a five minute walk away, will take you all the way to Knossos Palace in about 30 minutes. The hotel itself has nice views of the harbor depending on your room

A perfect location with a sandy beach right out the back door. There is a nice sized pool out back. The rooms are clean and the staff are more than happy to look after your every need

We had a day room before our late flight departure. The hotel definitely needs reservations. The rooms are basic, but clean and spacious. We really liked the pool, probably the best pool for doing laps in the area

Also not far from the beach and few of restaurants in the vicinity

The hotel was extremely clean and very welcoming. Nothing was too much bother for the staff. Breakfast covered all tastes from fruit ,cold platter ,salad ,cereal to a full English breakfast

Brilliant holiday so far we are still here but felt I needed to review as so good. You will not be disappointed it's so much better than it's 3*.

Just Perfect place to come back to every year! Can't describe how friendly the owner and the staff are! We felt home and were very much taken care of 😀 Nice rooms, perfect view, perfect pool and bar and very delicious daily breakfast! Just Perfect location! Thank you for making our vacation unforgettable

cozy rooms, decent view, very welcoming staff and great breakfast options ! the hotel is about a 2 minute walk to the beach and there's both mini markets and restaurants nearby. Solid 8/10 stay

Perfect hotel, good cuisine and excellent service. The area with the pool, the bar and the garden is so cute. I loved my stay in Amoudara !

Georgia hotel is the best one in the area. the owners and personnel very kind for everything indeed. i just reccommend this hotel. Vincenzo pisano and Maria grazia pisu from Sardegna island in italy

Very cozy place, clean rooms.. lovely and helpful staff .. Demitris is very popular, trustworthy and helpful. Deffinately recommended and we will stay here again!

Friendly personel help you have a nice stay. Fair prices. Have a nice stay.

The lady at the front desk, I think she is the owner, was really nice and we quickly got our room. It is pretty close to Heraklion center and harbor area by car. Disliked · For us the photos looked better than reality

There are "public pools" which we also used, but it's a nice thing to have your own bed whenever you want to relax at the pool :) Food: The breakfast had a good choice of food (also vegan options available like marmalade and peanut butter, soy milk, fruits, vegetables and many more

Great hotel! Super friendly staff! Delicious food, and clean poolside + rooms! Accomodation: We had a super plus swim up room with our own super comfy sun bed right in front of our veranda

Minus points: loud outdoor music on right side of hotel, on left side loud outdoor movie theater. Beach is nice, but beds contantly occupied by people laying down towels at 7:30 am and views on Coal Power Plant

We liked the dinner that was served even more as there were plenty of vegan and vegetarian options to choose from (meat was of course also available). The selection changed every day for a great variety

The hotel is very clean, nice staff, smells good, the room was perfect and the clean housework was done everyday :) The buffet was amazing with various choice of food with excellent quality

Friendly staff, nice Hotel and some of the best Mojito‘s I ever had. Thank you for a nice Holiday. The Cinema right next to the hotel can be heard pretty good, but it did not bother me.

People of unusual kindness and charm will help to explore the island for 30 percent cheaper than from your travel Bureau tour guide in your language and with comfort! Bureau Status! Would recommend to anyone and have a nice stay!

Best holidays ever, so nice people and great food! Rooms clean and made up everyday. Loved every minute of our time there

Great for starting with late breakfast short before the breakfast Time ends 😁. The Beach has a lot of place, Sand a nice bar and some stones than you enter the great sea

Lots of love for Eleni, she is the best and the kindest in whole Greece, and it's hard because I haven't feel better than in Greece and at Crete

We were there 2 days before the hotel closed for winter time and when we asked to stay a few hours later in the room, we had to pay €30 additional fee, while other hotels offer that for free when it’s the end of the season

The hotel was very good. We had such a great time. The service was perfect. Very friendly and attentive. The beach is very beautiful and just 2 minutes away. The rooms are clean and have a good size. Thank you.

We stayed 7 days and everything was absolutely amazing! In my opinion they do best food in that area, all the staff are very friendly and nice also the beach design! Only problem is they have a river next to them which is cold as ice, so if you want to enter the sea better walk a bit down the coast for a good temperature sea

Hotel is situated right on the beach. Stuff is very nice. Hotel guest's have sunbeds and umbrellas free of charge where hotel waiter's serve drinks and snacks. Beach is sandy and clean with life guard.

Amazing view literally on the beach, 10 minutes from town, 10 to 15 minutes from the beaches that are protected from the Summer Winds

Food is reasonably priced for quality and all dishes were delicious. The cheese platter is a good choice if you want to try the local cheeses. Pizzas are thin based and generously topped and calamari is cooked perfectly

Rooms that you would only expect in a high-end Hilton or better, and staff that would bend over backwards for you. Enjoyed breakfast every morning, which was included in the price. And of course the sun beds up front

The level of hospitality is top notch in the restaurant at night & at the hotel. The food is created in a very unique & thoughtful way & tastes amazing. The house white wine is delicious

Great location right by the sea with free umbrellas and beach chairs. Great place for kids, the playground is right next to the apartments, the swimming pool was in the neighbouring hotel for free just couple meters away

Great value family run hotel with great views (we got a free upgrade to the best sea view room). Generally great value for money and easy to get to Heraklion (bus stop next to the hotel)

The beach is nice with the sun lounge service, but too many kids for my liking. Breakfast was good and was only €5 so good value

Nice and cheap restaurant, you can take/order drinks and food to the beach

Fabulous hotel. Sea view, best hostesse, marvellous sea.

Great, cozy place directly on the beach. Here for two nights with my family. Friendly, casual, welcoming. Very clean, not fancy. Lovely balcony with sea view.

Free sunbeds and umbrellas, pool is large and up to 2,90m deep. Included breakfast typically Greek: olives, feta, watermelon, yoghurt and honey,. Furthermore two types of cold cuts, cheese, cereals, scrambled eggs

3 minutes to the beach: ammos beach bar sells TWO sunbeds and umbrella for 3€ daily - incredible. There are also pavillons for 10€, and you get fruits, juice and water. Some nice restaurants and shops around

A very nice Hotel, clean and fresh, with excellent service, and the beautiful garden with huge and sheltered swimming pool.

Pool bar was open every day (serving drinks, Greek snacks, icecream, coffee; also pasta), and VERY cheap: ouzo 1,50€ ? Pool open from 1000-2000, no night swimming, quite common times

The hotel itself what you'd expect for the price. Rooms are clean and tidy if a bit dated. Breakfast is good as is the pool. Staff are excellent, very welcoming and helpful fixing any issues immediately.

Simple yet very clean and nice accomodations. Nice and upgraded modern bathroom. Big swimming pool with a lovely garden area around it. All of the staff were so warm and welcoming and helpful

Great hotel with friendly and family atmosphere. Truly hospitable staff, good breakfast, clean surroundings, enjoyable and relaxing pool area

Great location if you are looking for calm stay, only short walk away from the beach and typical Greek restaurants :)

Very nice people. Lovely place. Elegant swimming pool.

Lovely family run hotel where you keep coming across little thoughtful touches. Try the stork club sandwich, it's amazing. Highly recommend this lovely, friendly hotel.

Awesome place and great staff

Really nice. Clean and spacious room with beautiful views. Also the staff members are friendly and really helpful :)

Naturally they saved my vacation after I arrived in Amoudara and noticed that my previous booking in the hotel nearby was cancelled. The service, the room, the food - everything was outstanding

This is a great family run 4 star hotel in Ammoudara, the beach resort for Hersklion. I had a twin room with a good, partial sea view, came with long balcony, with chair. Room reasonable size, tastefully furnished

I wouldn’t recommend it for people who would like to party 24h/day in hotel (but it is very close to Heraklion where You can party, and later on sleep up to 12:00)

Maybe WiFi signal on the 3rd floor could be better but will you arrive on Crete to spend all your time inside ?) Thanks for all, ευχαριστώ πολύ 👍🏻

I would recommend this hotel I had no problems at all thank you for a lovely time

5/5 because of general quality/price ratio
