Greetings! Second time in Crete.
Specially chose a hotel in the town of Agios Nikolaos.
Because Agios Nikolaos is a picturesque cozy town, with narrow streets, descents and ascents, countless stairs, two-three-story houses with geranium tubs on the balconies, fishing boats, souvenir shops, friendly Greeks, so iridescent from the emerald to blue blue sea, blue sky, pleasant heat, a warm breeze enveloping the body, a refreshing cocktail, a hat flying up, dizziness from the atmosphere of relaxation, idleness and laziness.
Traveled with a 4 year old. Because I am very afraid of diseases, I always choose hotels that are not very child-friendly, so that there are fewer of them. We are limited in the budget, so we try to take an inexpensive hotel. This was in July 2015 Dessole Hermes Hotel 4 * (89 thousand rubles 12 nights). I looked at the price for 2015 and was horrified. Almost double the price!
LOCATION: The hotel is located on the first line, on the seashore. Along the whole town there is an embankment and a road. All hotels located on the first line have beaches across the road.
TERRITORY, NUMBER: There is no territory as such. The whole territory of the hotel is the hotel itself. On the 5th floor of the hotel there is a restaurant, a swimming pool, a bar with tables around the pool and all the infrastructure (sunbeds, umbrellas). From there, a stunning view of the sea opens up and you can’t see or hear the road at all.
The room is small with a balcony. We had a view of the neighboring hotel, but it didn't bother us at all. Everything is clean, well maintained and the furniture and plumbing are decent. The room had a double bed and one single bed.
FOOD: All inclusive. The restaurant consisted of a closed room and a veranda, full service, tablecloths, everything is decent and beautiful.
The food is simply awesome, I have never seen such a varied and high-quality food anywhere. There was everything: meat, vegetables, fruits, desserts, ice cream. A couple of times there were themed evenings where they served seafood.
Drinks: For lunch and dinner in the restaurant you can take a decanter of wine to choose from, beer. Cocktails are prepared in bars (near the pool and on the 1st floor in the loobi bar). Alcoholic drinks are very decent, free cocktails are amazing. No bullshit. Margarita tastes like Margarita, Pina Colada tastes like Pina Colada. Especially delicious they are prepared in the bar near the reception. There were no queues.
ANIMATION: There was an adult (yoga, darts). Every evening there was a rather interesting show program, a disco. My child was delighted. All the guests gathered at the bar near the pool, there were enough tables for everyone.
STAFF: Very polite and friendly.
Beach and sea: the beach is across the road along the tunnel. Another fun for kids. There are pebbles on the beach, there are sun loungers, umbrellas (for a fee). Once we went on foot along the promenade to the sandy beach, we didn’t really like it. Then the whole holiday swam on our beach. The sea is just the cleanest, transparent, amazing color. A blue flag hangs on the beach
EXCURSIONS: We rented a car and traveled by ourselves.
All in all, a solid four. The lack of territory is compensated by excellent service and food. For families who love travel, and not just a beach holiday, that's it.
