..This was a 11 night stay with my son and daughter to celebrate my 70th birthday. The hotel is a modern "minimalist" beach front hotel on the Front of Hersonissos Beach with beautiful views around the bay. I think that the climate is amongst the best in the Med...Crete is stunningly beautiful...There was no humidity as I have experienced in for say in Cyprus.. The Hotel is on the North coast so faces open sea and hence the rollers crashing onto the beach...nothing to the north except the Greek Mainland...about an hour flight away... Crete stands grandly on its own as the largest greek Island in the Agean and is not part of any group of islands as for example the Cyclades...i.e Santorini being the nearest with even an expensive Day trip Via 2 hour Sea Jet and Guided Tour on the island Coming to about £165 per person.... The Capital Heraklion and the Airport is about 30 Mins away. Heraklion is,a must as for Knossos Palace and The gorgeous Archiological Museum.. Highly recommended is also day tour including boat crossing to Spinalonga island....and the beautiful Elounda and nearby Aghios Nicholoas....taking in beautiful valleys an gorges...Striking! The South of Crete borders the Libyan sea and there Is nothing to the south than North Africa...it is apparently hotter down there.... We covered the East coast....But did not touch the West Coast and Rethymno ..Chania etc which I think may have calmer seas and bathing . There is a semi pedestrianised walkway which has cars vans buggies bicycles competing with at busy times crowds of holiday makers so u have to have your wits about you. The beach is a fairly narrow strand of darkish sand but beware as u enter the sea there are rocks etc and the waves come rolling in with some force...I would say u need to be a strong and confident swimmer...small children need to be very carefully watched over.

.. ...Basically the hotel could be Paradise but for my needs and party age group it was in the totally wrong resort for us.. Hersonissos Beach Town is really a youngsters resort..i suppose like Malia nearby. The hotel is next door to Paradise Beach which is an open air nightclub..7 days a week !!!and very loud...to add to that 2 restaurants direcly front of the hotel .. NO CONNECTION .compete with their own Sound Systems.are Horrendous...instantly Paradise Lost. What saved the holiday in this connection is that there is Old Hersonissos Village up the hill and we would escape up there most evenings and more greek island authentic. We were on Half Board..the Breakfasts are very good and you will always find enough to eat. The evening meal was OK....there was always fish and meat etc..but becomes too repetitive.... Anyway all good otherwise but unless u love to party every single night be warned its noisy... Not the hotel's fault but there is where it finds itself. Lovely lovely people. Andrew Loizou
