Rest was planned in advance, budget, because. I have already been to Crete with my daughter and we prefer meals outside the hotel, in taverns, and we prefer to spend money on excursions. was not on sale. I will not talk about the host side, they brought, took, excursions - everything is fine. This review is for the hotel only. Placed in a two-story bungalow on the second floor. They just opened the door: indescribable aromas shibanuli in the nose, as it turned out later - the aromas of sewerage from the bathroom, spreading to the entire room. Wardrobe - Sovdepovsky locker with painted sliding doors, covered with not very fresh paper - that's okay. I killed on the spot the bathroom, divided into two parts by a curtain, 1 meter short of the floor. Standing shower - a bowl of 80 by 80 cm. Champing wet slippers around the room is normal and you can also get used to it. The way out is either to wipe the floor yourself, or get used to it, the cleaners, while carefully making the beds every day, did not bother with wiping the floor.
Breakfast - constancy for all 10 days. There were no fruits. I'm not picky, but I don't want to eat boiled eggs and soy sausages every morning, so I limited myself to boutique coffee with cheese, sometimes cereal. And what to feed if you are with your husband?
Dinner - they fed decently here, there was meat and fish and a couple of times chopped watermelon. But every evening - ice cream.

The beach is long, there were enough places on sunbeds for everyone, our tourists, as always resourceful, lay in the shade of umbrellas on their towels for free. The sand is not very good - it’s their own fault, the urns are standing, but it’s too lazy to get up and throw a cigarette butt into the urn. The entrance to the sea is different, in some places there is grass and flat stones, but you can swim with a mask, it’s interesting. There are sandy entries, it’s good with children, there are a lot of them on the beach.
Regarding the replacement of the room, I contacted the hotel administration, but I did not find a response, although there were empty bungalows. Answer: "People will arrive today. " Obviously, I don't belong to them.
Conclusions: rested, despite the minuses, well. Excellent excursions to Meteora, Olympia, Dion, independently to Thessaloniki (6 euros one way ticket), Neos Marmaras and Nikita.
The hotel has one-story villas, standing closer to the sea and in front of which there is a large green area, but there, probably, "people" are accommodated.
The undoubted plus of the hotel is a really large and well-groomed territory and a convenient location.
And the last thing - I am the manager of a travel agency, the first time I went as a tourist. Impressions "gained". I know one thing for sure: I won’t send my tourists to GERAKINA BEACH. I didn’t list all the minuses, and there are many more of them, it’s not worth it. It is a pity that you show other numbers to the managers of promotional tours, for which the tourists are so "thankful" to us later. Getting to know the hotel is not pleasant, but a bad experience is also an experience.
