Summary of reviews
Bella Vista is a cozy and comfortable hotel that offers excellent value for money for anyone looking for a clean and well-equipped accommodation for their vacation. The hotel provides stunning views of Bali port and the mountains and is located on a hill, just a short stroll away from beautiful and crystal-clear beaches. The mini-kitchens in the spacious and well-maintained rooms make it easy to enjoy partially self-catering holidays, while the staff, particularly the warm and welcoming owners, Alex and his wife, go out of their way to cater to guests' needs, including providing beach bags, towels and toys for children. The hotel's location is ideal for exploring the Eastern part of Crete and guests appreciate the proximity to excellent restaurants and a small but well-sorted market. While some guests found some of the furniture a bit old, it was well-maintained and the rooms were clean with air conditioning and WiFi that worked very well in most rooms. Bella Vista is a highly recommended choice for those looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay close to the beach with friendly and hospitable hosts.
