About Hotel Hara Ilios Village
Guest Reviews
Hotel Hara Ilios Village is perfectly located for those who want to explore the local area with fabulous beaches to be found in Malia and good access to amenities. The hotel itself is situated superbly next to the coast, just 50 metres from the beach. While it may be a bit of a walk to some places, the location is generally considered good and well-sited. Guests also praise the quiet and peaceful surroundings of the hotel. Gouves, the local village, is cute but the beach is only average, so it's worth renting a car to visit some of the more renowned beaches in the area. The hotel is conveniently located 15 minutes from the airport and 20 minutes from the city center, making it a great option for travelers who want to explore the region.
The breakfast at Hotel Hara Ilios Village has received plenty of positive reviews from guests. Many describe it as exceptional and delicious with a wide variety of choices available. The salads in particular are mentioned as excellent. Guests appreciate the fact that there is something new every day and that both breakfast and dinner offer a variety of options. However, some reviews mention that water is not available for free and that cappuccino at breakfast requires an extra fee. Overall, guests find the breakfast to be of good quality and commend the friendly and attentive staff.
Hotel Hara Ilios Village offers a very good dinner with at least 2-3 choices for meat, 3-4 different salads, fruits and 2-3 desserts. The hotel has its own vegetable and fruit garden. Guests enjoyed the tasty local house wine. Despite limited dinner options in the area due to COVID closures, the hotel's restaurant provided a great buffet for a very reasonable price. The staff was charming and helpful. While the restaurant is in a closed room without tablecloths, the food was described as perfect, delicious and varied. The breakfast and dinner menus changed daily and the petit déjeuner was excellent. However, some guests found the dinner timings of 18-20h to be too early and some felt that drinks should be included in the package. Overall, Hotel Hara Ilios Village provides a great dinner experience for guests.
Hotel Hara Ilios Village offers spacious, clean and comfortable rooms with beautiful views. Guests highly recommend choosing a room with a private pool for its great design. The air conditioning worked well and the cleaning of the rooms was good. The hotel's dinner menu is of high quality. However, some rooms lacked amenities and privacy and the design was considered awful by some guests. Some complained about no working TVs, weak hot water in the shower and uncomfortable beds and pillows. Overall, the hotel is tastefully decorated and guests feel at home immediately upon arrival. The bungalows are nestled in a beautiful garden and the rooms are well equipped and well insulated. Some guests found the rooms outdated and some bathrooms were not properly finished.
Hotel Hara Ilios Village has received mixed reviews when it comes to their beds. While some guests found the double beds to be very comfortable, others complained about the hardness and uncomfortable pillows. Despite this, there were positive mentions of "lit très confortable" and "das Doppelbett war sehr bequem." However, some guests faced issues with their rooms, such as being provided with a camp bed instead of the superior family room they paid for. This was resolved after two nights, but no refund was offered. Overall, if you're someone who heavily prioritizes comfortable beds, it may be worth checking out other options.
