Bella Vista Appartments Sissi

Wir sind vor kurzem von einem zweiwöchigen Aufenthalt in Bella Vista zurückgekehrt ... Was für ein wunderschöner Ort ... so hübsch mit den Blumen und der fantastischen Aussicht. Irene ist ein Star... sie war so freundlich und hilfsbereit... Das Essen vor Ort ist gut... die Zimmer sind gut gepflegt... Wir hatten keine Beschwerden... viele Stufen bis zur obersten Etage, aber so Es lohnt sich wegen des Berg- und Meerblicks über die Bucht von Malia von unserem Balkon aus ... Wer gerne wandert, kann auf dem Küstenweg zur archäologischen Stätte Malia und daran vorbei zum Strand von Potamos laufen. .ein schöner Spaziergang..beide Orte empfehlenswert...Die andere Richtung nach Sissi entlang einer geraden Straße dauert etwa 20 Minuten, aber wenn es sehr heiß ist, ist der Transport möglicherweise einfacher, da es sehr exponiert ist.... Wir haben einen Jeep für 5 Personen gemietet Tage, die wunderbar waren. Wir haben so viele Sehenswürdigkeiten gesehen ... die Ruinen von Phaistos ... Myrtos und Ierapetra im Süden ... die Milatos-Höhle mit ihrer dunklen Geschichte ... plus Tagesausflüge, die vom Bella Vista aus gebucht werden können. .. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt genossen ... abgerundet durch Irene und das nette Personal ... auf jeden Fall zu empfehlen ...

I have been staying at this hotel for the past 20 years, multiple times a year. As part of that I have been a customer that did not know the family that run it, but also became a friend of the family that run it, as most repeat customers have. For the 2024 season, and maybe more, the family who own the property have leased the business to another family. With this in mind I had no alarm bells about staying as usual. Having the original family not there would be a massive change for me as they are a key part of my holiday, however as I previously said, I originally stayed here without knowing them and had wonderful holidays, and loved the Bella Vista. So this year I decided to have my holiday like it was my first time staying here. I was aware and ready to get used to processes, menus, etc were likely to be different, but the key elements, the pool, the location, the relaxing holiday, the lovely rooms, the lovely grounds would all still be there for my holiday. I'm writing this review also to address a few points raised in another review from July 24 as although we are all welcome to our own views and that is important, I think its important to keep customers updated and reassure those regular customers and new customers who have booked holidays here. We arrived at 11pm and found our name on a notice on the gate as usual, informing us the room number, however no lights were on through the apartment areas which are filled with stairs and steps, I used my phone torch and already knew where the apartment number we needed was, so went straight there. If you were a new customer the lights being off would cause a big problem and a health and safety issue due to the steps etc. With all new businesses there will be teething problems, and I trust that these lights will be back on when it becomes dark moving forward and that the new managers simply haven't got into the swing of these lights going on. Reception has been the Bar for the 20 years I've holidayed there. There is an old reception room downstairs, but its locked and says that reception is at the bar. The room was one of the oldest rooms, and one I like for the rustic charm, wooden beams and stone floor. It was as always clean, a lovely view, lovely bright curtains and clean linen and towels. The linen was changed, the towels were changed regularly, the bins were emptied and the apartment was clean at all times. In the other July 24 review posted on here it refers to the room as being like a prison cell, i have stayed in all the types of rooms here, and this stay was the most basic room, which is what I requested for convenience, and there are certainly no rooms here that could be described as anything close to a prison cell. There are plenty of photos on here of the rooms and balconies, and also on the Bella Vista Website you can see all the room photos. The aircon in every apartment is in the bedroom(as far as i recall), and is suitable for the whole apartment, we slept one person in th
