Step Outside: What Is Around the Hotel?
Hersonissos is one of Crete’s biggest resort areas, combining beaches, harbourfront restaurants, bars, shops and family attractions. The coastal strip is lively, while neighbouring Anissaras and Analipsis are calmer and more resort-led. Old Hersonissos and nearby mountain villages add a more traditional side away from the seafront.
