“Wonderful retreat in an otherwise mass-tourism area”
Amazones Village Suites is a very special place that enables guests to enjoy the best of both worlds: the hustle and bustle of "Hersonissos Port" and the quaint Koutouloufari/Piskopiano/Old-Hersonissos troika of villages up the hill. The hotel is "run" (literally) by a troika of ladies and the continually laughing Dimitri (the bartender) who, under circumstances, make sure that guests are received round the clock. During our 14-28/9/11 stay, we had a seaview room (which I would recommend that readers book if availability/wherewithal allows). The view is awesome; the silence only interrupted by the "winds of Crete" or people chatting at the bar. Bear in mind though that the hillside layout of this petit hotel and the surrounding neighborhood makes it difficult for physically challenged people to navigate the slope. There are so many tavernas within walking distance that there's no need to book half-board. The spacious "suites" are well-equipped for self-caterers, but why even bother?...after all, you're on vacation! Although public (bus/taxi) transportation is very reliable and frequent, please consider renting a car because Crete is huge. After having been there for the fifth time now within the space of two years, we still haven't explored the whole island.
“Off the main road but comfortable”
The hotel itself was great. Only minor hiccups like the bathtub being separated from the wall left the bathroom floor wet. The rooms were extremely comfortable. We did think we were going to set a sea-side view but it was actually a sea, side view (ie. a partially obstructed view of the sea). Beware of punctuation. The hotel is slightly secluded and we had to rent a car to get to any activities. However, the hotel was comfortable enough to relax and entertain you if you just wanted to get away from the hectic world for a spell. Overall quite nice if a bit isolated.
“Would love to go back and will recommend to all of my friends.”
Fantastic Hotel, absolutely loved it. We were there right before the tourist season started so there weren't many guests. Perfect for what we were looking for. Quiet, away from the bustle of tourists. But yet close enough to drive to anything we wanted to see. We loved this place and will look to return in the future.
“Worth every dollar (or euro)”
The location is, indeed, supreme. It is located on the hillside, high above the beach town laying by the bay below. From it's beautiful high location comes also the first demand - you better have some kind of transportation, doesn't matter if it is a scooter, an ATV, or a car. We tried both a scooter and a car, and can say that a scooter is more than suitable for shorter distances (up to 20....30 km max) and perfect for driving in the busy town traffic. If you want to travel longer, have a car. Hotel is located in a separate village, however, where you can find everything, from small shops to car rentals to tavernas - so if you do not want to go to the beach or sightseeing, you can easily live in the hotel for all your stay.
