Limited Availability, these sell out!
Due to the surrounding area and the number of steps around the hotel, it may not be suitable for those with mobility difficulties.
The hotel enjoys a convenient location: Heraklion city centre is only 6 km away, Heraklion Airport is around 10 km, and the famous archaeological site of Knossos can be reached in about 20 minutes by car. This makes Petousis Hotel & Suites a perfect base for combining beach relaxation with cultural exploration.
Lovely hotel with good facilities and only a five minute walk to the beach. Good breakfast with lots of choice. Pool area never too busy, sun loungers always available. Staff are lovely and I must give a special mention to Babis and Babis in the hotel bar. Both are so lovely, friendly and make a great Spritz! Those boys are a real credit to the hotel, can’t praise them highly enough.
my friend and I had a lovely week holiday at this beautiful hotel. The room was spotlessly clean and the shower was amazing with the water pressure being the best I’ve ever encountered in Greece. The staff were all lovely but special shout out to the young barman who was exceexceptionally proficient and professional. The variety and quality of the breakfast was excellent and we did eat in the Taverna, which was also very good. We also used the spa and the gym - again a really nice touch in a small and friendly hotel. All in all we had a lovely stay at this hotel in room 206
Maria gave me an excellent massageshe was incredibly skilled, kind, and friendly. The entire team, including Vaskilina, Anna, and Nikolas, were all amazing and made me feel so welcome. I will definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!
This Hotel is amazing. We stayed in a Junior Suite, and our room was a great size, and spotlessly clean. The staff really make this hotel what it is, and that starts at the very top with the hotel Manager who is always walking around interacting with the guests. They all work so hard to make sure everything is just right. The housekeeping team keep the rooms to a high standard. The Lifeguard around the pool makes sure everyone is happy, providing clean towels, tidying the tables and chairs, and making sure everyone is having a good time. The bar and waiting staff in the main bar, and around the pool areas do a fantastic job. We stayed on a Bed and Breakfast basis, and the breakfast buffet was always fresh, with a great selection. Fresh fruits, yoghurts, meats, cheeses as well as a hot selection. The atmosphere in the hotel is really chilled, definitely not a party hotel if that is your thing. They have live music in the main bar twice a week and we really enjoyed it. There is always Greek music and dancing involved. Big shout out to Babis and Babis on the main bar who were great. At the front of the hotel is the Petousis Taverna. This is must if you stay here. Amazing food and excellent prices. There is also a brilliant Beach club about 2 minutes walk away, called Heaven. Again, a must if you are staying at this hotel.
Just returned from a fantastic holiday at this beautiful hotel. Friendly staff, good location and immaculately clean. Thank you to everyone at Petousis, we have rebooked… see you next year
