Greece has exceptional nature! We got off the plane in Heraklion and wanted to live! And breathe! The air is saturated with ions! Not far from the runway / runway - the sea. Those who do not tolerate the heat very well - go to Greece! The air is humid and it is very easy to breathe, and it is + 35 outside. We arrived at the hotel quickly (we took a taxi), we were also accommodated very quickly (maybe because we arrived earlier than everyone else and a clean room was waiting for us). The gentlemen from our flight arrived later than us and were sent to a nearby hotel to spend the night (but I would keep quiet if I were them - the neighboring hotel is a cool five !!! ). It even seemed to me for a second that it was Aldemar's policy to show an excellent five to tourists - maybe they will like it and they will come again next year, but immediately at 5 *. The territory of the hotel is very beautiful, blooming and landscaped, the paths are located very conveniently, so from any place - you will come where you need to and not get lost. Our room was on the first floor (family room) - I went with three children. Near the room there is a small space - a terrace with a table and chairs. I liked the food and so did the kids. . The selection of drinks is also nice. The entrance to the sea is not entirely successful - there are huge and smaller boulders and stones, but if you walk 10-15 minutes along the seashore to the right of the hotel - an amazing bay, there are not even waves! And walking along the seashore on a hot summer day is a pleasure! Animation for children liked the children. Every evening, the youngest was taken to the Mini Disco - right from dinner. Near the hotel there are supermarkets, there is a car rental, a shop with fur coats. I advise you to take a car in Hersonises, there the offers are more interesting, the cars are newer, the prices are cheaper. To the town of Hersonises, take a taxi for 5 minutes - 7 euros or by a free bus that runs from the hotel. Fur coats are also best to choose in the town, and do not listen to the sellers! Until the last store, look through everything and buy without headlong - the first thing that came across - but carefully choose and think and make a purchase only the next day. I chose a fur coat for two days. I went around all the shops and found in the last one (in my opinion - the best store) - Angelo, the owner of the store Janis - it seems that he lives right there. )))) Who loves good music - go to a disco in the town there is a very nice club - New York. Didn't want to leave. Everything was interesting and everyone liked it. We went with children to Aqua Park Aqua Plus - also by taxi without any group, it turns out cheaper. We also went on an excursion to the Palace of Knossos: the Platanos Origtalis tree, which is 2.200 years old, a small church in the village, the cave of Zeus (formed in the mountain after a volcanic eruption), a donkey drove us to this mountain, after - a pottery workshop, where children sculpt with a master on clay vases on a potter's wheel and take them home, then lunch in a tavern - very tasty !!! , after a convent, in honor of the icon of the Mother of God of the Heart. And finally, the Palace of Knossos itself! A very interesting tour, for three it cost 365 euros, but it was worth it! I advise everyone to Greece, they are very kind to the Russians, an Orthodox close-knit country, they treat each other and their guests with care. And two small flaws about the hotel - Wi-Fi does not catch well on the territory of the hotel, if you are waiting for an important email, you will connect every time you pass by the reception. And two times out of ten, the floors in the room were not washed very well - a lot of sand. But if the sand on the floor is so annoying - you can call 09 - and they will send a more experienced maid, she will fix everything. In general - everything is very very cool! I'll stick with Greece.
