Rested with the whole family for the first time in Greece. Awesome! Excellent climate, clean sea, excellent hotel. I read the reviews and fully agree with the last three. The only thing I want to add a little: a very good location of the hotel. A 20-minute walk (if you walk past the hotel "Nana beach") is the ethnic museum "Lychnostasis". I highly recommend visiting it. Entrance 5 euros for adults, 2 euros for children. True, there is no audio tour in Russian yet, but they give a booklet with a detailed description - it captures incredibly. This museum is private. In it you will learn how the Cretans lived and, perhaps, you will see very familiar things - tools, see an apiary, wax icons, a shepherd's house, an old mill, a chapel, folk crafts, moonshine and a winery. We took very beautiful photos. And don't forget to visit the huge Cretan Aquarium. From the hotel by bus going to Heraklion, stop number 9 (they have stops under the numbers). Bus fare 2 euros. The road takes about 20 minutes. It is possible by car or scooter. Entrance to the aquarium costs 8 euros for adults and 4 euros for children. There is a McDonald's type cafe and a shop. There is also a cinema that shows cartoons about the sea. Don't forget to bring something to drape over your shoulders. It's 19 degrees in the aquarium building. Children may feel cold.
Excursions for different tastes and prices. Questions - write. I wish you all good mood and rest.
