I found the town of Heraklion a bit crowded, but not surprisingly, for this is the main city in Crete. The city is built on the side of a hill overlooking the port and with my fully loaded backpack, the climb to the center of town took quite an effort. Our hotel was in the centre of the island. We...

Two summers ago, we stayed in Chania but this time we chose Hersonisos to spend our holidays. A small, nice village close to Heraklion, but still traditional.
What I love mostly in Greece is not the beaches, but how (old) people wake up early in the morning and go to the square to read their... More >
Hersonissos, where we stayed for two weeks, is a perfect holiday beach location. Also, wonderfully quiet at this time (May) of year. We also spent a week in the mountains inland. My main interest is in wild herbs, for which Crete is famous, but there is so little guidance for the tourist on this.... More >

The town of Heraklion is not very beautiful, compared to the other big towns in Crete, such as Chania and Agios Nikolaos.

The actual town of Heraklion is busier than the other towns of Crete. Too many stores and too much traffic was the dominant sight all around. The cars would make much noise and didn't let you enjoy a coffee at the waterfront. Personally, I prefered the quiet villages of south Crete more than its... More >
Our accomodation was in Hersonisos and we stayed for about 10 days there. It is a nice village, although I personally found other resorts more picturesque. I prefer more quiet places and less touristic. This small resort was full of luxurious hotels, with large swimming pools, enormous parking... More >
We have been to several of the Greek Islands and this is our second time to Crete. Stalis is a very friendly town, we were in the centre of things, great location, views to die for, the beach was great, restaurants excellent, nightlife excellent, everyone catered for. We could not find fault with... More >
