The decision to go to Crete came spontaneously, so there was no time to choose a hotel for a long and tedious time - we relied on reviews on the Internet and the advice of our favorite travel agent Yulechka (Fiji, Kharkov).
We never regretted that we decided to go to Crete and to this hotel.
The road from the Airport took 40 minutes, we were at the hotel around 9.00 in the morning, the bracelets are put on immediately, but the check-in is only after 13.00. We put our luggage in the luggage room, had breakfast, and then changed into swimsuits and had a great time until lunch, using the beach, the pool and the bar. So prepare swimsuits, slippers and at least 1 towel closer somewhere. Beach towels are provided with the room.
There are only three pools: the first near the sea with sea water, there is also a small one for small children, and a jacuzzi, in the distance of the territory there is a large pool with fresh water and there is also one lost on the territory, tiny. The pools are not heated, but the water is heated by the sun, refreshing and invigorating at the same time.
The beach is large, spacious, with fine fine sand. There are a lot of sunbeds (free of charge), there are under umbrellas or without them. It is better to swim on the left side of the beach or even go to the beach of a neighboring hotel - there are no reefs, beautiful even sand. The water is clear, clean, glistens in the sun, fish swim up. When leaving the beach on the territory of the hotel - there are tanks with water for rinsing the feet, as well as three showers.
Room - booked a standard room with a view of the garden, gave a view of the sea. Nice. The furniture is new, clean, light colors. The balcony is spacious with 2 chairs and a table. Swimwear can be dried either on chairs, or you can take a rope and clothespins with you. There are already safes in the rooms. Also TV plasma, refrigerator, air conditioning (never turned on), hair dryer. No cosmetics are provided. A reservoir of liquid soap is screwed near the sink, and a reservoir of hair and body gel is screwed above the bathtub. Slippers, no bathrobes. The closet is large, spacious, a lot of hangers. Bed 2-bedroom, large. The child had a comfortable single bed. There are blankets in the closet - for cool nights. Mosquitoes are found, take a fumigator and a remedy for mosquitoes and relieve itching after bites.
They cleaned every day, quite normally, without fanaticism, beach towels were changed every other day, white bath towels - as needed.
There is Wi-Fi on the territory, the password for it is issued at the reception - it is different for each device. It does not always work well, especially in the evening - great difficulties. An hour later, it automatically turns off, you have to log in again (the password does not remember, so you have to carry a piece of paper with you). It was a little stressful. But in the morning it worked great, even in the room.
Food: breakfast from 7 to 10 in the main restaurant. The menu is great for all tastes. And porridge, and fruits, and yogurt, and pancakes, and scrambled eggs, and just eggs, vegetables, fried ham, mushrooms, sweets, honey, jams, nutella, etc. Not to list everything, eyes run wide. Everything is VERY tasty! Who did not have time for tomorrow in the main hotel - you can eat the same thing in a nearby tavern. The pool bar opens at 10.00. There are a lot of people there, but the bartenders try their best. From 11.00 - sandwiches, buns, etc. are put up near the bar. And near the far pool, a sacred ceremony begins - cooking pizza in front of your eyes and cooking it in a real oven. The pizza is very tasty, and the uncle is awesome! There is also another bar, there are always few people there, cocktails are prepared thoughtfully, it turns out tastier. Lunch from 13 to 15. Also very varied: meat, fish, mussels, vegetables, soups, side dishes, ice cream, fruits, wine / beer, tea / coffee, sweets. Again - after there is lunch in a tavern. From 15 to 18 - ice cream is served at the bars. Dinner from 19.00 to 21.30. Here, of course, it is not very convenient that it ends so early. It gets dark late + many from excursions or trips return late - but is dinner already over?
The tavern hosts themed dinners every other day - Chinese and fish. They must be registered in advance. The Chinese didn’t impress me with anything, but the fish one is simply amazing - swordfish, cuttlefish, octopus, red mullet, mussels, oysters, shrimp, squid, etc. Delicious!
If you leave the hotel for the whole day, you can order a lunch box the day before (until 18.00) - in a cooler bag you will be given: sandwiches, cucumbers, tomatoes, fruits, juice, water, sweet bars. Well done, this is very convenient!
The gym is not very convenient - from 10.00. We didn't go there. There is also a hammam, masseur, peeling with fish - all, of course, for an additional fee.
You can play mini-golf, tennis (free of charge), bowling (5 euros per hour).
Animators are cool funny guys. They give 100%, but they don’t force anyone anywhere, everything is of their own free will. Julia from the children's club is generally a good fairy! At 21.00 there was always a mini-disco, at 21.3-0 there was an evening show. Everything takes place in the amphitheater near the far pool, it was always full! Animators even held a wedding on the beach!
The most fashionable building - overlooking the sea, where the rooms are more expensive, I would not advise families with children - there is loud music at the bar in the evening. And on Thursday they saw off a big race of Russians - in general, they rioted until 12.00
The territory of the hotel is magnificent - tangerines, olives, lemons, limes, pears, quince, pomegranates, bananas, apricots grow. A whole collection of varietal roses, they smell so good! Many palm trees, cacti, flowering shrubs, there is a small fountain.
Souvenirs - bought wine, olive oil, soap, honey, jam, magnets, cups, plates. They were afraid that there would not be an advantage, but nothing happened.
Trips - excursions to take from Pegasus did not arise. Crazy guys, great prices. They took a car, rental offices - the sea, you can choose any. We signed an agreement with a full cash register and without a franchise. In advance, we uploaded a map of Europe to the navigator, looked at the routes. One day - we went to the Palace of Knossos, to Rethymno, to Lake Kournas (JUST SUPER!!!! ), and to the Cretan Aquarium. Second day - Kera Monastery, Zeus Cave, Lassithi Plateau, Elounda, Plaka, Spinalonga Island (ALSO SUPER!!! ), Agius Nikolaus (very beautiful town). Then we went to the south side of the island - to Ierapetra. The roads are good, everything is written on signs and signs, gasoline is 1.70 euros, there are many gas stations.
We were lucky with the weather. There was not a single rain, only a couple of days there were light clouds. But on the mountains in the afternoon, rain clouds swirled all the time, but near the sea - the sun, beauty. During the day it was 28-29 degrees, at night about 22. Very nice. The sea was calm all week, only on the last day there were waves - but we like it, we jumped on them from the heart. The water is still clear even with waves!
Walking streets outside the hotel - only souvenir shops, taverns and pubs. There were Englishmen, of average degree of intoxication and adequacy, worn on motorcycles and ATVs.
In general, we really liked Crete! Magnificent nature, indescribably beautiful sea, historical heritage, friendly and helpful Cretans, delicious cuisine. I think we'll be back there!
