A lovely hotel in a great location
A lovely hotel with really friendly staff. We went bed and breakfast which had a great selection on offer for everyone. 2 pools,1 of which we basically had to ourselves for the one week stay,and the option of the small beach directly across from hotel gives you plenty of choice to lie out and soak up the sun. The pool bar was a little expensive and so was the area at night where you could drink and sit and chat which is a shame because its a lovely spot that we didn't use because of the cost of the drinks. We upgraded to a sea view room which was nice but a bit on the small side

Exceptional....we'll be back!
My sister and I stayed for 9 nights and staff couldn't do enough for us. The first night we were booked into a double but the next night we were moved to a good sized twin room. It was cleaned every day with little sculptures made with the towels left by the wonderful cleaner. The bar staff were the best, making out late lunches so enjoyable. We were greeted every morning with the friendly restaurant staff. On the last day we were allowed to stay in our room free of charge as we were leaving at a later time. Nikolas and team you are exceptional...THANK YOU from Claire and Jayne in UK@
Superb unique hotel, would highly recommend
This was our 2nd stay at this fabulous hotel. It is situated by the sea and just an hour journey private transfer from Heraklion airport. Every member of staff “the team” were incredibly helpful and friendly as well as respectful and polite on all occasions. The breakfast in the open air restaurant, lunch time drinks in the open air bar, all served with care and added shared laughter made it all the more enjoyable. The pool area is spacious and quiet, comfortable sun beds and that added touch of lovely soft beach towels supplied daily. We were made very welcome indeed, and have only genuine thanks for the hospitality we received in every aspect. Nicos the manager is the most sincerely caring gentleman who goes over and above his duty, to make the stay at this hotel truly memorable. Our room was beautiful, and exceptionally clean with crisp white sheets changed daily. Christina our room lady takes her job seriously and everything is done with love and care. We cannot say enough about the way this hotel is run under the management of Nicos. It is completely unique in what it offers and we give heartfelt thank you’s to you all at the Vasia Ormos Agias Nikolas . If we travel anywhere on holiday next year it will be back to you all, thank you again with our love. Pamela and Frank xx
