    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating

    The Cretan architecture of the Galaxy Villas has an air of old-world charm, as well as a massive pool and a bar-slash-restaurant.

    These self-catering villas come with fully equipped kitchenettes. There's a large pool with sunloungers and parasols, plus a smaller pool for kids. The restaurant serves breakfast and local Greek fare during the day, with items on the menu made from organic produce from the neighbouring garden.

    The hotel's located at the bottom of Mount Harakas in the town of Hersonissos, on the Greek island of Crete. At its doorstep are cobbled alleyways, stone houses and authentic tavernas serving local food. Visiting other Greek islands is easy, as the port of Heraklion's only a 25-minute drive away.

    Just to let you know, there's a tourist tax of €3 per room per night, to be paid on check-out.

    A great place to stay

    This place was amazing. All the staff were very friendly. Room was great with fabulous views down to the coast. Be aware though that it is quite a hike down to the beach, so either walk down and get a taxi back or be prepared for the hike. The accommodation was lovely and quiet, but as it is built on several levels there are a lot of steps.
    We would happily return.

    We arrived late in the evening, 10pm, to a warm welcome from Stelios on reception. Check-in was quick and easy and we were helped with taking the cases to the room. as previous reviewers have already said, simply furnished rooms (we had a one bed-roomed apartment close to reception - as we had requested) and the view was fantastic. Daily cleaning, alternate days for clean towels (lovely new white fluffy ones!) and sheets, although we are quite sure it was sometimes every day! Everywhere was spotlessly clean - thank you to the lovely ladies who do this. As it was end of season we did not have any problem with sunbeds. Very conveniently located to Koutouloufari, Piskopiano and all the lovely tavernas in the area. As said before, a supermarket and bakery directly opposite. We look forward to returning and would definitely recommend Galaxy Villas if you are looking for reasonably accommodation.
    Fantastic!

    Myself, husband and two children (17 and 13) had the pleasure of staying at Galaxy Villas for 2 weeks at the end of July. We had emailed directly ahead of the visit to request a room which overlooked the pool, this was definitely met as our villa door literally opened onto the poolside!! We loved our villa, we loved the pool and our kids loved spending time with Apostolis, he nicknamed our son lobster (bit to much sun) The surrounding area was beautiful, far too many eateries to try in 2 weeks (would recommend, The new sports bar, next door, Stella's, a few minutes walk away, this one is a family run business and is all home cooked traditional food and Aposperida, also amazing food, a short walk away) The pool area was kept very clean as was the surrounding areas. Our villa could have been cleaned daily, however we didn't feel it necessary, so we often hung the do not disturb sign. We felt air conditioning is a must in peak season and should be included in the cost of the holiday. We felt 8€ per day is a lot for something that is badly needed with temperatures well into the 30's, maybe something that could be looked into? We hired a car for 4 days from directly across the road and we thought it was good value for money, we also booked a boat trip from there, which was enjoyed and was worth the money. There is also a shop and bakery opposite the villas, very expensive for basics (tin of spaghetti was 3.60€) we were shocked!! Mosquito's were rife, but having read previous reviews we had packed nets! Still got one or two but I would definitely recommend nets and repellent. We loved our time at Galaxy Villas and would definitely recommend and return.
    Lovely resort, amazing staff

    This resort is just lovely. The pool area is great, the rooms are immaculate and the staff are so unbelievably friendly and helpful. They seem genuinely happy to help with anything. The location is so peaceful and amazing views. We did go later in the season so I don’t know if it’s always calm and serene but it was just lovely. It’s very walkable to other villages and the beach town and loads of great restaurants and shops really close. Great place
    Fabulous

    The villas are wonderful, very quaint and beautiful. The staff are very attentive, especially Apostolis who works the bar, keeps Everyone smiling and is great entertainment, can’t wait for our 3rd visit next year.
