Будьте готовы! Be ready!

Making a choice on Roxani, be prepared: 1. Nothing more to the lovely smiles of the hosts. Save on everything. 2. Breakfast will make you sick on the third day. Lunches and dinners are more or less bearable. But don't be late: the buffet is purely conditional. Better to eat elsewhere. Inexpensive, tasty and one serving is enough for two. 3. Bed linen was never changed in 12 days. Once towels and then on request. 4. Three-four-bed rooms - complete crap with poor plumbing. Double and single tolerable. 5. Be sure to bring soap with you. Put in the beginning 1 tiny piece and that's it. 6. In the morning there is often no hot water, because it is heated by solar panels. 7. Be prepared to get acquainted with local cockroaches, and of such sizes that they do not fit in the battalion commander. Amoudara is a pleasant village with a friendly population. In shops, tour agencies speak Russian. It is better to take excursions in local bureaus: 50% cheaper than with a hotel guide. Bus stop to Heraklion next to the hotel. In any supermarket, buy a round-trip ticket for 1.5 euros, and from the driver for 2 euros. In Heraklion, at the bus station by the sea, you can buy a ticket and go on your own to the aquarium and water park, to the Palace of Knossos. It is much cheaper than taking a tour even at local tour agencies. Yes, and you will not be limited by time, but calmly watch everything at your own pace. Be sure to visit about. Spinalonga! All other excursions are interesting, but you will spend a lot of time on the road. For example, to Gramvousa and Balos 5 hours by bus and 2 hours by boat. Climbing Gramvousa to admire the confluence of the three seas, and descending is only possible for young people (very steep rocky slope). Those who rent a car will have a good rest. You can see a lot, swim in different places. Then the "charms" of Roxani will go unnoticed.
