If you are wanting all inclusive for cheaper food/drink options do not stay here. There was plenty of choice for food but it was mediocre at best. The quality was awful, one night there was souvlaki (unidentified meat) which was very gelatinous and felt undercooked. Another example was the so called risotto which had less taste and texture than a packet of microwave rice, was definitely not risotto. It was clearly not fresh and a lot of it was from frozen. Unfortunately not all the food was labelled either which made it difficult for myself having a Nut allergy. The deserts consisted of some sort of cheesecake (which even the chef couldn't say whether there was nuts in this as it was bought in), tangerine slices dipped in chocolate, some sort of coconut bun, baklava and fruit. Their was also no fresh juice at breakfast, only cordial. Many much older (50+) non British guests seemed to enjoy the food.
The drinks were poor too, the only inclusive drinks were Ouzo, Raki, Brandy, Wine (tasted very vinegary), beer and soft drinks. For a single of any other spirit it was €6. The cocktails were poor too.
The rooms were lovely and large, clean and airy. Other than the mattresses being very hard and uncomfortable, and the mini fridge being old and loud, the rooms were nice.
We had some issues with the shower not working which the staff were quick to fix but apparently there was no bath plugs across the resort so I was unable to have a bath to help ease my muscles. It seems a bit of a strange policy to have bathtubs but not allow guests to have a bath.
The cleaning staff were very efficient and friendly and cleaned everyday.
The pool was a good size and seemed fairly clean but only one out of the two was open. The games room was disappointing having only one pool table (€2 per game), one table football and one air hockey table, neither of which worked. It could have done with a wipe around too.
The website states that there is a shuttle service three times a week but I was informed they aren't doing it this year. Alongside this they advertise a laundry option at the front desk but this is external and very expensive with each item of laundry being between €3-€10.
The view from the hotel was stunning and the beaches close by were beautiful and almost worth the stay. The atmosphere here was very relaxing and clearly for an older clientele without a party vibe which was nice.
The restaurants locally were excellent and I would definitely recommend YA Seafood, Saradari, La Mia Pizza restaurant and Teverna Harakas. If you don't mind eating out every for every meal then it could be worth the stay but not good value for money considering.
We were able to extend our check out until 6pm for €30 which was helpful with us having a late transfer and flight.
Overall we enjoyed our stay but we wouldn't stay again
The pictures are their version of a "risotto" and "Pina Colada".
The bedroom was pretty basic but clean. The pool areas are small but nice enough. Breakfast was the same each day a variety of hot and cold items, fresh made pancakes which were quite lovely. Lunch was served at the out door pool/bar area, dinner was in the restaurant area and both were your standard buffet style we only ate lunch twice and didnt have an evening meal which seems a waste as we were all inclusive.
All inclusive drinks were disappointing as you can only have beer, wine, soft drinks brandy or ouzo! Everything else you have to pay for and the cocktails were just as much as the bars in hersonissos 7€ There’s no ATM and you can’t pay card??
Rooms were cleaned (brushed, bed made and bins emptied) daily but we had to leave the towels on the floor in the bathroom to make sure they were changed.
Most staff were friendly just one gentleman (assuming he’s the manager) was quite rude and unhelpful. I don’t think we would stay again.
To sum up, the hotel is located on a hill with a beautiful view and close to a very nice sandy beach (very nice for Hersonossos conditions, of course, because the beaches here are very narrow, often rocky). It's a pity that 4 stars are misleading and you may feel disappointed. During my stay, I tried not to think about all the shortcomings and enjoy the nice views. However, I would not come here again unless the price was exceptionally attractive. In the hotel you get the impression that more than half of the guests are our compatriots, so this also needs to be taken into account. During my stay, there was a group of 15 young guys having nightly parties in the style of drunken park hooligans.
I recently stayed at Hersonissos Village Hotel in Crete, and from the moment I arrived, I was thoroughly disappointed. Despite the sweltering temperatures of over 30°C, there was no air conditioning in the reception or the restaurant. This meant that I was constantly sweating and uncomfortable, which is not what you expect from a supposedly 4-star hotel.
One of the most frustrating aspects of my stay was that, despite being all-inclusive, the hotel did not provide bottled water. Instead, you had to drink filtered water from the terrace, which tasted terrible. Staying hydrated was a challenge, and this is simply unacceptable.
The rooms were in urgent need of refurbishment. The floor was breaking down, and the taps in the bathroom were covered in limestone. It was clear that maintenance and upkeep were not priorities for this hotel.
The food was another major letdown. The meals were average at best, with the same dishes being served every day. Lunch was particularly disappointing and far from what you would expect from a 4-star all-inclusive resort. In seven days, they only offered grilled chicken on one evening, while the rest of the time it was mainly stews.
I feel compelled to write this review to warn future guests. This hotel is not what it claims to be, and the previous positive reviews were very misleading. It was a big mistake to choose this place for our holiday. If you don’t want to constantly navigate stairs and hills, stay away. The nearest beach is a 10-minute walk away through a dusty, improvised road, and getting to town requires a taxi ride that costs 10 euros. Walking back from town is especially challenging.
The only redeeming features of Hersonissos Village are the views and the diligent housekeeping staff who did a good job cleaning the rooms. However, these positives do not make up for the numerous negatives. I would barely give this place 3 stars. We were very frustrated, especially on the last day when there was no air-conditioned place to wait for our shuttle. We had to sit on a chair and sweat constantly.
Avoid this place if you want a pleasant holiday experience.
However, with earplugs it's fine.
We found the food very good and varied. The staff is incredibly kind. Both at the reception and at the restaurant in the spa and also the cleaning ladies. Special mention to these brave little ladies. Impeccable cleanliness, we had little touches such as a small bouquet of flowers, our napkins folded in a certain way with a candy in them.
Access to the beaches is easy and just a stone's throw away. 2 spacious swimming pools, if I had to say its weak point it is the fact that you have to walk for excursions, because the buses do not know how to pass. Also no I put 4.5/5
We had an excellent vacation and a big thank you to all those people dedicated to the comfort of their residents.
The cottages were pleasant, as they were not far from the pools and the dining area. We also had a beautiful sea view.
Unfortunately, you can hear a lot of noise from other rooms, and the mattress was very hard. The air conditioning in the room was good though.
The center of Chersonissos is a 15-minute walk away, which is ideal for an evening out. After going out, taking a taxi back is recommended because the way back to the hotel is steep uphill. A taxi from the center to the hotel costs only 10 euros.
Between 6:00 PM and 11:00 PM, there are free cocktails with excellent service from bartender Dimitris. He made us smile every evening and had great conversations, making the bar a pleasant place to be. We saw how hard he worked and yet he remained friendly to everyone. I highly recommend the 'Dimitris special' cocktail! Thank you, Dimitris, for the amazing service, we will miss you.

"It's best to rent a car at the bottom of the hill near the hotel instead of at the hotel itself, as it is cheaper and still close by."Read full review
