Top Hersonissos Hotel Reviews

Paralos Venus Suites - Adults Only

8/10 Good

"It is a good property and nice to be off the main drag. The rooms and furnishings are very nice, as is the breakfast and pool areas. The staff are friendly and generally very responsive. However there are some issues, mostly linked to the vistas of the rooms and the fitness centre having no cardio machines. The property is over 100m from the beach and the sea views are over a car park and or scrub land."

Paralos Kosta Alímia

10/10 Excellent

"We have just returned from a wonderful week here, a really amazing hotel, food and service is outstanding as are the facilities, it’s a really well run hotel with lots of experienced staff making a great team. The room was great, had a retreat garden room with hot tub and fire pit, would recommend it. The housekeeping was fantastic. Will recommend and hope to return sometime soon"

Phāea Cretan Malia, a Member of Design Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing property, felt very high end but still authentic. The staff is very nice and ready to help. The room was comfy and always beach/pool sunbeds available. The breakfast is amazing 10/10 we looked forward to it every day. The onsite reasturants and drinks were over priced for what you got (but the dinner buffet also 10/10 at 45 euros per person). If you are travelling with a baby they have lots of high chairs at all eating places. The only thing I would say is the pool is deep (for kid swimming) and also if you are not travelling with kids this place is packed with young families (great for us, but if I was on a romantic getaway I would choose adult only resort), the town of Malia is walkable about 25 mins - only 5 min drive. But the town is geared to young clubbers and strip joints… BUT the “old town” is cute and small and has good restaurants, so I would just go into old town to dine out. The beach is nice but more rustic/with large rocks. We enjoyed our stay very much and would highly recommend."
