Bella Vista is a small, family run hotel. It’s a bit of a walk to the nearest beach (40 mins) but what it offers more than compensates for this.
Eli, Spiros and Melanie are the most welcoming team we have ever had the pleasure to meet. I am sorry not to know the name of the chef, the other breakfast lady and the lovely housekeeper.
The location will provide a very authentic experience of Crete. Literally 5-6 walk to a square full of restaurants and Tavernas which are all excellent. And where we also booked our trip to Spinalonga with the lovely Bob.
If you choose to Bella Vista as your destination, you will return from your holiday feeling restored and comforted ( if maybe 10 pounds heavier). We will return xxx

We found the Hotel owner (Eli) to be very helpful & approachable on all levels. The Hotel was considered to be of a very good standard (for a 3 star). The Pool / Bar/ Foyer areas were very clean and to a high standard, the sunbeds were comfy and the pool was clean / well maintained.
Our room (top floor) had everything we needed, inc good AC & kitchen area & view down to the coast. The room was cleaned to a high standard whenever needed.
Our package included the Ala Carte breakfast, which comprised of meats, cheeses, croissants, cake, Greek pastries, Yoghurt, Granola, fresh fruit, tea & coffee, fruit juices and a choice of cooked breakfast. Overall breakfast was considered to be very good.
In summary, the Bella Vista is a lovely little hotel, conveniently located within a few minutes walk of the Old Hersonissos centre, but with a an easy 15 minute stroll to the edge of the more busier resort of Piskopiano.
We would highly recommend the Bella Vista Hotel!

Séjour reposant
L’hôtel Bella Vista a été choisi pour son positionnement à une vingtaine de kilomètres d’Eraklion, ce qui permet de visiter la partie est de l’île. Accueillis par la gérante à notre arrivée, l’enregistrement s’est déroulé rapidement. Les locaux sont conformes à la description donnée lors de la réservation. L’ambiance est agréable et le calme règne dans la résidence. L’accès à la mer nécessite l’utilisation d’un véhicule ou de marcher quelques kilomètres. Quelques commerces et restaurants au centre du village ou un peu plus loin pour les plus grands magasins. Séjour reposant avec une mention pour le petit-déjeuner bien copieux et une équipe dévouée.

Bon sejour
Chambre propre et comfortable , tres bien pour une famille avec la chambre separee et 2 lit dans le sejour avec kitchenette . Petit dejeuner correct pout le prix
L'accueil a ete tres chaleureux
Bon rapport qualite/prix
Un seul bemol : le wifi est insuffisant pour tout l'hotel
Bella Vista befindet sich abseits vom Tourismus, es sind viele Holländer und Engländer dort, es ist eine gepflegte Anlage. Bis zum Bäcker und einen kleinen Supermarkt sind es 5 Gehminuten. Da wir den ganzen Aufenthalt ein Mietwagen hatten, kenne ich die Busverbindungen nicht. Die Bar war den ganzen Tag geöffnet und es gibt eine kleine Speisekarte. Die Anlage würde ich jederzeit wieder buchen.
Wir 4, in 2 Appartments, sind sehr freundlich aufgenommen und bedient worden.
Das Frühstück ist ein bißchen spartanisch. Es schmeckte uns trotzdem.
Sehr sauberer Pool und genügend Sonnen-Liegen und -Schirme vorhanden.
Die Verständigung mit dem Personal war sehr gut.
Die Frau des Eigentümers, ist Deutsche und Demitri hinter der Bar, spricht sehr gut Englisch.
Beide sind sehr auf das Gästewohl bedacht!
Immer für ein Schwätzchen zu haben, sowie mit Tipps zu Ausflügen zur Hand.
Rundherum hat uns unser Aufenthalt sehr gut gefallen!
Unserer Meinung nach ist das Hotel mit ** unterbewertet!
*** wäre angemessen.
Bellissima struttura. Camere pulitissime e dotate di ogni confort con una bellissima vista sul mare. L'albergo è in una zona tranquillissima vicino al vecchio villaggio di Hersonissos lontano dalla confusione della cittadina.
Le spiagge più belle sono un pò distanti per cui si consiglia di prevedere l'uso della macchina.
Comunque l'albergo ha una piccola piscina e un bar ristornate dove si può mangiare molto bene. Su prenotazione è possibile mangiare dell'ottimo pesce fresco a bordo piscina...molto suggestivo.
Il personale è meraviglioso, disponibili e gentilissimi, pronti a soddisfare qualsiasi richiesta.
Consigliatissimo!
Wir waren für 6 Tage im Bella Vista in einem großen,sauberen Apartment.Die Begrüßung war sehr freundlich und wir haben uns sofort wohl gefühlt.Mit dem Auto ist man in 5 Minuten am Strand.Zum wunderschönen Marktplatz,wo man in gemütlichen Tavernen(Sehr zu empfehlen Zachos)sehr gut essen kann,sind es ca.5min zu Fuß.Wir waren mit allem sehr zufrieden und kommen im nächstes Jahr wieder.
Siamo stati presso il Bella Vista Apt. in famiglia dal 23 al 27 agosto 2015. Il proprietario, Spiros, è una persona delizia ed un ospite premuroso.
Gli appartamenti sono molto belli, nuovissimi, funzionali, arredati di ogni comfort con gusto e sopratutto, molto molto puliti.
La struttura gode di una vista notevole. All'interno vi è una sala giochi, una sala biliardo, il mini market...
Se dovessi recarmi nuovamente in zona, sicuramente opterei per questa struttura e per i suoi gentilissimi proprietari.

Rekommenderas!
Budgetlägenhetshotell en bit upp i bergen från stranden. Lugnt och fint trots närhet till den större vägen.
Vi hade lite strul med incheckningen när vi kom. Trots kvällstid var vårt rum inte iordningställt. Det löste sig dock rätt snabbt och vi gavs flexibel utcheckning och lite gratis dricka som kompensation. Ingen big deal.
I princip får man vad man betalat för vad gäller standard etc, men det man måste framhålla är den fantastiska servicen! Alla på hotellet är verkligen supertrevliga och gör sitt yttersta för att man ska ha det bra. Små detaljer som leenden, ett genuint intresse för kunderna, eller att köpa körsbär av bilen på gatan och bjuda alla runt poolen på. Det är sådant som lyfter ett ställe!
Maten i restaurangen var helt ok men torget 100m nedför backen erbjuder väldigt mycket mysigare tavernor för den som vill ha det lite mer genuint grekiskt.
Rekommenderas!
nous avons passé une semaine au Bella Vista et c'était très sympa! les studios sont équipés correctement, propres, vue sur piscine et mer et Matina et Spiros sont vraiment extras, tout comme leur p'tit plat et les soirées!!
Ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo, il personale dell'hotel Dimitri è molto disponibile e capisce abbastanza l'italiano (altrimenti c'è l'inglese!).
Le camere sono spaziose e pulite l'unica pecca è che è un po' distante dalla movida e bisogna memorizzare bene la strada per tornare all'albergo a fine giornata!
Comunque consigliato!
Ciao!
Una struttura ben tenuta fuori dal caos del centro di Hersonissos.
Il personale è amichevole, premuroso e sempre prodigo di consigli .
Davvero una bella vacanza.
Driver av stedet var 100% tilstede for oss på alle måter,absolutt å anbefale til andre gjester som ikke ønsker å bo midt i turistgryta nede i Hersonisoss.
vacanza bellissima! personale gentilissimo e molto disponibile.
hotel bello e pulito.consiglio anche la cena in hotel.prezzi bassi e quantità e qualità ottime
