Villa Vicky

The people here make you feel genuinely welcome. The apartment was very good, and while the shower is a little cramped, it does the job. If you’re hoping to stay away from Starbeach, this is a good spot.

It was quiet and pleasant here, even with the city center close by, and the hotel seems to be run by a family. We met many guests who had come back again. The staff were really lovely, and we have nothing but positive things to say. We don’t usually return to places we’ve visited, but we’d happily come back here.

I almost wanted to keep this place to myself for another visit, but that wouldn’t be fair after such a good stay. The room was beautiful, spacious, and clean, and the pool and bar area was lovely. Even during peak season, there were beds available. After I left a disappointing hotel in Heraklion, I arrived at short notice with my young daughter. Our gracious, welcoming hosts had a room ready for us. Vicky lent me her iron when I asked, and we also got advice about local transport. We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay. Thank you.

I felt really at home here and would love to return. The place is well kept, with a lovely garden, tastefully decorated rooms and shared spaces, and a beautiful view of the garden, sea, and mountains. There are two pools and an outdoor Jacuzzi. The owners and staff were very nice and speak fluent English, and most of the guests seemed to be young Dutch people. It’s not far from the center of Chersonissos or a nice sandy beach, but it’s away from the noisy discos. You can relax in peace with just the cicadas singing. Restaurants serving traditional Greek food, grocery shops, and car rentals are nearby. The bartender makes delicious drinks and a really good pizza, one of the best I’ve had. I’d highly recommend it.
