Hello everyone. While the memories of the vacation are fresh, I decided to leave a review. Rested with my husband from June 12 to 19.2011, flew through the Tez tour. We went spontaneously, offered an inexpensive ticket to Greece to Crete to Aphrodite for 385 euros per person, all inclusive. AND NOT A DROP NOT REGRETED!!!!!!!!!!
UIA was flying, great guys, they took off and landed the plane, they didn’t even feel it. There were no flight delays. I also met Tez Tour at the airport - they met me, put me in a transfer. Since the hotel is located 20 minutes from the airport, we arrived quickly, we were met at the reception well, settled immediately. We paid for a standard room and were supposed to live across the street in Appolo, but we were settled in the main building in room 148 in a 3-bed room on the 1st floor. By the way, they all understand and speak Russian and will soon speak no worse than we do.
ROOM

Yes, the room is not a fountain. It would not hurt to replace the telly already, hang some pictures, level the walls, but these are trifles, this, of course, is not at home, but you can live, the main thing is that everything is clean, white linen, white towels, hair dryer, shampoo, soap, gel shower, body lotion. The room had air conditioning and a refrigerator, though empty. Shower by the way is very decent.
NUTRITION
Good, always full. For dinner, there were always eggs or scrambled eggs, bacon or sausages, muesli, lots of vegetables, pancakes or pancakes, croissants, feta. Wow they have soups, a large selection of different delicious breads, there was fish every day and mussels, ice cream was also every day. For a week of rest there was an evening of Italian, Japanese and Cretan cuisine. Of the fruits were: apples, pears, watermelon, apricots, cherries. As for sweets, the soul fell not very much to them, everything is very creamy. As for drinks, there was beer, as for me it is so bitter, similar to Turkish, white, rose, red wine, but everything is dry. From drinks - cola, sprite, soda lemon, yupi very sweet, soda, from alcoholic drinks that were included in the ALL, I kissed gin lemon and san francisco. By the way, every Sunday there is a Cretan evening - a chic table is laid, the owner invites dancers and until 24-00 they and vacationers dance folk dances. The spectacle is breathtaking. I was pleasantly surprised by the people themselves and the staff are very polite, tactful, sociable. In the restaurant, the waitresses fussed like bees, served everything quickly, cleaned the dirty dishes, and did not take them away until we gave our consent. I liked the fact that even the most important and the owner himself did not disdain to clean up the dirty dishes. As for the owner - a funny grandfather, he spent the day and night in a hotel.
HOTEL
the hotel is decent, green and clean area, close to the sea, there are two bars, two swimming pools. Across the road there is a bay, 2 sun loungers and an umbrella for 5 euros, there really are never waves, but if you choose between swimming there and another beach that is not far (I didn’t understand which hotel beach it was), then of course it’s better on the other - clear sea, beautiful view and waves. But we also have our advantages on the beach, if you swim where the pier is, then there are stones, a lot of sea urchins and fish.

As for the weather, it is somehow unpredictable. Since this is an island, the breeze is constantly blowing. It seems that you get up there is no sun, clouds, and an hour passes - the sinter is incredible. Therefore, I still advise you to take a jacket, I missed it so much in the evenings.
The island is certainly beautiful, I would like to travel around it more, but I can’t do it on my own. So if possible, take the car and go. Excursions are expensive, on their own 2 times cheaper. They went around the whole of Heraklion, were in Knossos, Agios Nikolaos, an aquarium.
In general, go and be satisfied. As for us, we will return to Crete more than once.
