The pool was the highlight of our stay at Sunshine Village. Clean, spacious, and surrounded by sunbeds, it became our daily retreat. Whether for a morning swim or afternoon lounging, the atmosphere was peaceful and relaxing. The kids had a blast, and so did we!

Les programmes du soir étaient vraiment amusants – spectacles en direct, karaoké et soirées à thème. Les animateurs faisaient vivre le resort chaque soir et veillaient à ce que tout le monde participe et s’amuse.

Το Sunshine Village μας άφησε πραγματικά τις καλύτερες εντυπώσεις. Η θέα στη θάλασσα ήταν απίστευτη, ειδικά την ώρα του ηλιοβασιλέματος – απλά μαγεία. Οι εγκαταστάσεις ήταν εξαιρετικές και το προσωπικό τόσο φιλικό που νιώσαμε λες και ήμασταν στο σπίτι μας. Περάσαμε υπέροχα και θα το θυμόμαστε για καιρό!

Good break

I e read lots of bad reviews about it but I decided to give a try.
Food is good lots of veggies and meats, something for everyone, Appartament very clean, 3 pools one situated half way going towards the beach. Very good customer service, speak to Julia and she will sort everything out.
Down side: toilet seats across all resorts need a bit of fixing same as toilet flash systems. Too much French music by the big pool. Overall very good.

The hotel is tired,the beds are a small double, the bed linen and bath linen is old and small.very basic rooms. Can't fault the staff, from the manager to the girls and the chef they really make the hotel. I didn't like the hotel but the staff is so fantastic that I would go back. There is something about it that makes you feel comfortable and welcome.

Left without moving in

Booked an AI 8-day vacation for a family of 5 (12m, 15f, 22m, 22m, 49f). Arrived 06/21 early morning. Waiting for the room we had breakfast. We all liked food but dishes were dirty. Soon our room was ready. At this time reception staff was really nice. The real shock was when we saw the rooms. It is like summer camps in the 1970's. But its a 4-star hotel... or said to be. Based on photos you would never guess what you get. An apartment where hall is the kitchenette at the same time plus a very worn & torn dirty bathroom. No wardrobe, only 2 really small shelves. Beds done for 3. They apologized & brought us 2 other sets of linen. We looked around dumb of shock. Immediately wanted to check net to find another hotel. You needed a code for the wifi. You have to pay for it in the rooms. So went back to lobby, checked opportunities, taxied there,booked, taxied back. I told the receptionists we move out they started to blame me saying I should have asked for a wardrobe or put our clothes in the kitchenette (!!!), and anyway we came 5 though we booked only for 3. Showed me a paper to prove this - saying \"3 adults, 2 children\" - simply missed to read it. I paid the total vacation in advance so they gain full price for serving one breakfast. Before booking I read all traveler reviews and have to admit its my fault not to listen to warnings not to come here. Staying in downtown, having chats with Greek llocals (all really nice) very interesting they all know whats going on there.

Don't rely on the brand Best Western

We only stayed for two nights and did not have high expectations for the price we paid. However it was worse. Our room was located in the basement had windows and a balcony but all facing the wall. The bathroom had mold. We asked for another room but apparently they were fully booked.

Best thing that happened to us in Crete

Stayed for 4 nights - it was the best thing that could have happened to us in Chersonissos, Crete.
The rooms are spacy, with fantastic natural light coming in. The varanda was a treat. Public areas are well cleaned and taken care off. Plants are mostly smell giving, such as Jasmine, Lime trees and so on. The pool is clean. Towels are replaces daily, rooms are cleaned daily, meals were great. My friend is a vegiterian and always gets stuck at hotel dining rooms - not in this case, all meals had a wide varaity and food was tasty. Pool bar and lobby bar were great.
Reception staff were helpful. Well, all the staff were fantastic.
Rooms have a key locked safe, air-conditioner, bath-shower, kitchenette that has no use but it's good to have a refrigerator in the room.
Place is suitable for families with kids. It's not a luxury hotel, but rather a good, fine, well mantained hotel.
Hotel is out of town, but operates a free of charge shuttle service.
Nearby are 3 small local villages - it's worth taking a walk.
We highly recommend the Best Western Sunshine Village. Hope to be back again.

fantastic stay, enjoyed everything apart from the steep hill if you are wanting to go down to the beach or town, however a short walk up the other way takes you to other supermarkets and old town which is by far better than the touristy parts! Thoroughly enjoyed our holiday there!!

real hospitality

although the hotel is situated on top of small hill but for me it was a nice sport to do the few minutes walk. I see it as a perfect location for holiday in Crete . it is with nice views on the Mediterranean , a walking distance from the water park with it's many activities (not too many rides and small beach, more suitable for young people) and it's close to the town with its many restaurants, cafes and shops besides availability of car rentals so you will have the nice feeling of being in the country (especially with the small villages 10 minutes away) without being far from urban life and beaches the all inclusive option is quite and experience with the generosity and richness in option, the pool is nice with amazing views and the nights on the terrace are unforgettable. my recommendation is to rent a small car for about 30 euros a day and travel around the island a little and have breaks after everyday you go on long exploration trip, spend it at the hotel and there are many near by attractions or half day trips so you can have at least breakfast and dinnner at the hotel and try one of the many restaurant and cafes around the island while travelling the apartments has small kitchenettes and small terraces .. the kind manager told me about plans of expansion and adding more entertainment and activities to the hotel. In Brief; I really enjoyed my stay at Sunshine Village

Die Auswahl des Essens war nicht riesig, aber immer sehr schmackhaft. Die Animation nicht gerade für mich begeisternd und nur in französischer Sprache. Ich wollte nur Erholung, das war so in Ordnung, aber für Kinder und Jugendliche eher sehr langweilig.Eine Kritik die mich sehr störte, es hat kein einziger Schrank, ich hatte sogar das Vergnügen in einem Dreibetten Zimmer zu logieren. Ich frage mich wie das 3 Personen schaffen ohne Schrank in diesem Zimmer.

The hotel was not a 4 star Hotel.
Incomprehensible they have 4 star.
I dont no where to start - it was a shabby hotel.
The breakfast was so terrible - we bought it elsewhere.
We got drinks in colored plastik cups - intended for children. The drinks tastet not good.
We got other rooms - because there was so high music every night. There was so loud music at the pool every day - feels like it was a party hotel.
Total misleading pictures and discriptions of the Hotel.
The guides at the Hotel only speak French.

Not a 4 star hotel

Nice hotel, but the pictures on website of hotel looks a lot better than realitty.
In my opinion not a 4 star hotel but 3 star.

Very friendly and helpfull staff.
Good location with walking distance to beach.

The hotel area could really need a cleaning hand. Some areas looked really tired and not well maintained. Maybe because of Covid19??

3 pool areas but the one for small children was not cleaned at att during our stay and there were small rocks and dirt on the ground so our kid hurt them self when walking around the pool area.
Asuggestion for improvement is tobadd toilet facilities and small bar or similar the kids pool ares so you don't have to walk 5minutes to nearest toilet and bar.

We had all inclusive in our stay and i'm a bit dissapoikted about selection of food made available, especially for the kids.
For breakfast there was very little selection of bread available, not even toast bread.
For lunch/dinner there where spaghetti bolognese and fish every and a small variety of greek food, but I would consider all meals more or less the same for all days.
Some days with fries and maybe even burgers would have been nice. Our kids could not understand why there was no french fries, and I don't think I have ever sgayed in a hotel who did not serve this at all.

An old VW shuttle bus took you from one end of hotel to the other end in 2 minutes and worked fine, but driver goes really fast greek style 😉

Freundliches, hilfsbereites Personal. Leider ist im Hotel ein französischer Club angesiedelt. Somit sind viele Franzosen dort und die täglich mehrmals statt findenden Animationen sind leider großteils nur für Leute die über den Club gebucht haben. Man wird standardmäßig französisch vom Personal gegrüßt. Sehr gutes Essen, die Zimmer sind groß. Die Gläser waren nicht immer sauber. Der Minigolfplatz und der Volleyballplatz war leider verwahrlost. Der Ausblick ist traumhaft schön. Basketball, Tennis, Squash, Bogenschießen, Dart war alles möglich. Nachts hört man bei geöffnetem Fenster die laute Musik von den umliegenden Nachbarhotels. Da ist jede Nacht in einem anderem Hotel was Los. Im großen und ganzen würde ich das Hotel weiter empfehlen, da wir uns sehr wohl gefühlt haben und das Personal sehr freundlich ist, essen war auch lecker und die Hauptmahlzeiten frisch gekocht. Tut mir leid das zu schreiben, aber ich persönlich würde aufgrund der Zielgruppe (Franzosen) dann doch
lieber ein Hotel mit Animationen in einer für mich verständlichen Sprache aussuchen und bei dem Animationen für jeden Hotelgast sind und nicht nur für jene, die über einen externen französischen Club gebucht haben.

Das Hotel ist absolut nicht zu empfehlen.
Das Personal ist extrem unfreundlich und inkompetent.
Keine Handtücher für Liege am Pool. Die Handtücher in Zimmer werden alle zwei Tage ausgetauscht So dass man selber welche kaufen müsste.
Das Essen war eine Katastrophe, bei den Restorants hat sich das rum gesprochen in der Umgebung so das die sich gefreut haben das wir außerhalb des Hotels gegessen haben ob wohl wir voll Pension hatten.

Super lækkert hotel.

Vi var 2 voksne og 3 børn og vi havde en fantastisk uge på sunshine village. Personalet var venlige og serviceminded. Maden i restauranten var virkelig god og varieret. Klart bedre end vi havde forventet. Lækkert værelse med en uovertruffen udsigt over vandet. Eneste lille minus: ligger 600-700 meter fra stranden, hvor hotellet dog har shuttle service til. Ligger ca 1 km fra hyggelig græsk landsby med små gader, hyggelige butikker og lækre restauranter.

Godt hotel, fin All inclusive til en fornuftig pris. God service og personale altid i færd med at fjerne brugt service og andet efter gæsterne. God mulighed for afslapning såvel som aktiviteter, arrangeret af hotellets hertil hyrede person. Fin beliggenhed, på trods af, at hotellet ligger oppe ad en stejl bakke. Bus kørsel nogle gange i løbet af dagen, hvis man ønsker det. Men en god udsigt findes fra hotellet samtidig med en svalende brise ude fra vandet. Gode store værelser med lyse farver. Senge udemærkede. Aircon. dog kun i soveværelse, så vi måtte alle rykke ind i dette, da det ellers blev for varmt. Obs på der er myg om aftenen, så husk spray eller undgå åbne døre i værelse med lys tændt.

gutes Hotel für einfache Ansprüche

Mit dem \"Best Western\" Image hätte ich einen anderen Hotelstandard erwartet. Allerdings fehlen mir Vergleiche in Griechenland bzw. Kreta.
Wir hatten aufgrund des geringen Preisunterschieds All Incl. gebucht aber nicht immer in Anspruch genommen. Um so mehr nervt es wenn man abends um kurz vor 10 Uhr ins Hotel kommt und keine Gläser mehr bekommt um noch ein Bier zu zapfen.
Sicherlich verständlich wenn man Tische voller gebunkerter Getränke sieht aber das kenne ich auch anders.
Da hilft auch noch so freundliches Personal nicht weiter.
Also besser selber den Kühlschrank füllen. Der ist nämlich leer (Supermarkt ist nicht weit) oder wie alle ordentlich en Touristen pünktlich an der Bar erscheinen.

Glücksgriff

Wir haben für einen solch günstigen Übernachtungspreis nicht viel vom Hotelessen erwartet, waren daher sehr positiv von dessen Qualität und auch der Auswahl überrascht. Die Mitarbeiter sind sehr hilfsbereit und zuvorkommend. Der Pool und der Poolbereich werden täglich gereinigt und aufgeräumt. Und der Ausblick von der Barterrasse ist einfach traumhaft! Die Lage ist recht ruhig, abseits vom Touristentrubel. Man kann zu Fuss zum Strand laufen (würde ich aber nicht immer machen wollen), es gibt auch dreimal am Tag einen kostenlosen Shuttle vom Hotel, der Touristenbummelzug fährt ebenfalls am Hotel vorbei, oder man mietet sich ein Auto. Wir kommen bestimmt wieder!
