To begin with, in short, the hotel is a solid four. There are few cons. We were at the beginning of September 2013 a company of 7 people with 3 children (9 years old, 7 years old and 3 years old). Fly with peace of mind to this hotel. You will be happy!
Now everything is in order....
Tour operator Coral Travel-buses you guys killed is quite mildly speaking. Take an example from Mouzenidis travel (they flew last year).
Flight "UTair" - every time I fly with this company - constant flight delays. How can I not want to fly them next time, but apparently I have to... but the takeoff and landing is soft - respect to the commander of the aircraft Ponamorenko Dmitry !!!
The island of Crete itself was little impressed. Bald. Big and it seemed dirty to me. There were many places. The farther from the resort, the dustier and poorer the areas. But it’s still interesting. .
Sea-sheep))) I would even say sometimes))) but we knew that Crete is a windy island, so I won’t get too excited. The entrance to the sea at the hotel is not ice. ! drives a lot of algae - about several tons a day - so they are raked by a tractor))) if you move away from the hotel a little to the right to Aldemar Royal Mare, then right in front of it there is an artificial slab - it's calmer there, but the slab itself is hefty slippery - be careful after a liter) ) fly away into the depths of the sea)))
We flew to the hotel in the evening and the rooms (we had two of them) were given to us immediately. 302 for 4 people and 355 for three people. The rooms were in the same building. stone. oldish. dark. bathroom is more or less fresh. but my wife quite liked the room... the fridge is empty (by the way, they didn’t bring more than one bottle of water throughout the rest! ) There was wine on arrival, but it remained there. we do not drink dry))) The hotel area is beautiful, green, clean and well-groomed.
Cleaning in the room is very conditional, I would say. But this is not the main thing in the rest. .
Food, well, I don’t know damn it... adults left restaurants like penguins! Everyone recovered in 11 days. All those who go to a 4-star hotel to eat free lobsters, I’ll personally tell you this - “you didn’t eat them at home, don’t eat here either! "For this does not happen. And in Gretana they are fed very decently. Meat is delicious. Pasta. Fish. Lamb. Rabbit. Pigs. Pastries and. Fruits. Everything is in normal abundance. Greenish melons, yes, but this is not fatal. minus one for me in food is a lot of uncleaned dirty tables (there is service in restaurants and they work quickly and well, but there are obviously few of them for so many people) sometimes you come and sit somewhere, but not because people are sitting, but from for the fact that the tables are with dirty dishes. the problem is solved in this way - you approach the staff and point your finger at the table you want to sit at. 2-3 minutes and the table is cleared. if you come half an hour before the end of the meal, you may not try some dishes - they simply don’t put them on anymore. Once there were snails, but I personally didn’t have time, within an hour and x is no more ((and this is perhaps the only complaint from me personally to the hotel. well, it’s not nice for me to eat when there are dirty tables around !!! )
The pools are clean. Cleaned with us 2 times. And the fact that the children go from the beach with ops in the sand like their parents and with a sense of peace plunge into the pool, not deigning to wash off the sand before that, then this is sorry, not a hotel problem . in such cases, I always advise like this - if you are a redneck, then nothing will help you. sea like all normal vacationers.
Animation-everything is fine. no complaints. the guys work with a bang! feel the team spirit. someone said they will send! yes. it happens. but only after the children's disco. the problem is solved simply-you get up and leave the performance in any other corner of the hotel. good area big and there is a place to go. fire show-respect! Mr. Gretan Village - I liked it! Sometimes we went to water aerobics in the neighboring Aldemar Royal Mare 5 stars - I liked it very much! the girl "CHEF" burns! ))) Then the cocktail game is cool and fun. animators, as I understand it, almost all are common in two hotels. but the bar is paid there. beer and cocktails are much tastier than in gretan (well, of course) beer glass-5 euros. cocktail-8 euros. the hotel is also very beautiful and big. but there are more relax. BY THE WAY, THE SPA IN IT IS VERY GORGEOUS. WE VISITED BUT NOT FROM CHEAP I SAY IMMEDIATELY! were in the same hotel for a cooking lesson from the chef. It takes place on Saturdays at 12 noon.
Excursions - I have not been on more than one. my parents were on a trip "Orthodox Crete" in the Lassithi valley. I liked it. rented a car - from 40 euros and up to 300 per day for a Mercedes Cabrio in a new body. The cars are mostly worn out already. So before you take it, take a closer look. Rent a scooter from 25 euros. !! ! do not rush to take a car right away - the choice of rental is huge! I recommend that as soon as you leave the hotel, go through the first rental on the right (grandfather sells junk at crazy prices) and go up the hill to the intersection and on it to the left. You will see the sign for the car rental "Master" . here there are better cars. the owner Misha (similar to our Galustyan) speaks Russian no worse than me. cheerful. navigator in Russian is only 5 euros plus. from 50 euros for 15 min. Parachute-1 person 60 euros. 2 people 90.3 people 120. photo arashut 20 euros per disc. We rode to the village of Miriokefala (Greek. Μ υ ρ ι ο κ έ φ α λ α ) is a village in the municipality of Rethymno, for an Orthodox holiday. far, but interesting. mostly only locals. I think several thousand people come to the holiday a day. some walk several kilometers in the mountains !! ! such a custom)
Crete-aquarium-can be visited. Not far by car. Waterpark water park is also nearby. We were also in Aquaplus-water park a little smaller, but also liked it. minutes! ) for little ones, and for parents, we highly recommend a labyrinth game (you need to collect all the seals and find a way out) mini golf, mini safari for small ones (electric cars) and a mini zoo. It is inexpensive.
Hersonissus city-life is in full swing. Especially towards evening. A bunch of shops with cosmetics, souvenirs, supermarkets, etc. , etc. From the hotel, by the way, a train goes to the city. The schedule can be seen at the entrance to the lobby. There is also a bus schedule to Heraklion. We were in the city of Heraklion. I liked it. embankment. Well, of course, shops and all that!
There is a right next to the hotel. church for anyone interested. 200 meters from the hotel up and 300 to the right down and in place. service at 8 am local time.
Extension of the room is possible - 40 euros. but if there are free rooms. the hotel is just crowded !! ! but we were lucky, one room was extended to us. what time did you arrive in the morning. the hotel is full and no one will be evicted from the room instead of you !!! ! so calculate your arrival at the hotel by lunchtime)))
Heraklion Airport is small. Someone scared me with bad duty free nonsense. Excellent, on the second floor! buy everything in it. the choice is huge.
NOW THE MINUS OF THE HOTEL BEHIND THE DIRTY TABLES.
IN THE LOWER PART OF THE HOTEL WHERE WE HAVE ROOM IS A VERY COZY AND BEAUTIFUL PLACE, BUT THE STAKE OF THE SEWER IS INCREDIBLE IN THE EVENINGS.
In all other respects, there are no complaints about the hotel. To the staff too. ! ! FOR THE MOOD!! ! FOR THE CARE!!!
Will we return again? -no) but not because we didn’t like it, but because we don’t go to the same places))) especially in Greece there are a lot of them !! ! will we go to any other hotel of the chain Aldemar? -Yes!
P. S. BELOW I APPLY A PHOTO FROM THE RECREATION, AND ALSO INFO ON RENTAL AND EXCURSIONS WITH PRICES.
And advice to all the Counts Kozyavkin, who write all sorts of crap about the hotel, and indeed to everyone, before flying on vacation, do not forget to take a good mood with you and, as the Animators at the Aldemar hotel say, "Smile)" !!! ! and you will happiness!!!
Have a good rest everyone)
