Wir hatten für 7 Tage ein Standard Apartment mit Meerblick gebucht, als wir ankamen war das Personal sehr hilfsbereit und nett, leider stellte sich heraus dass wir ein falsches Zimmer erhalten haben, wir mussten für eine Nacht in dem Zimmer schlafen, das waren die Studios mit Meerblick die unteren Zimmer die uns optisch nicht zugesagt hatten die oberen Zimmer sind viel schöner, hätten wir dem Personal nichts gesagt wäre es nicht aufgefallen, sie haben sich entschuldigt und waren wirklich bemüht! Die Unterkunft war sauber mit direkter Strandlage besser ging es nicht! Ansonsten der Ort an sich ist ganz ok , nur fanden wir es war ein sehr junges Publikum unterwegs,,, da wir ein Auto hatten haben wir viel im Norden von Kreta sehen können, wer etwas Abseits Abends von der Partymeile weg sein möchte , die drei Dörfer Alt Chersonissos, Piskopiano und Koutouloufari oberhalb von Chersonissos sind sehr hübsch mit tollen Tavernen und Cafés…

Rooms with panoramic sea view are very good!

The rooms with panoramic sea view (big balcony) are the best choice when deciding to stay here. We upgraded our room to one of them and became very happy. The owner and hosts are very kind and will take care of you during your stay. Thanks for taking care of us!
