Asterias Village Resort

Absolutely gorgeous and lovely place. Really enjoyed it here. Went with my family of 3 and we loved every minute of it. Would recommend to family, solo etc

Friendly staff, very clean, quiet and beautiful rooms. The pool area was perfect! We loved everything about Asterias Village and highly recommend it! See you next time!

Was transferred to Asterias as the other apartments Piskopiano village would close midway through our holiday. Our flight was a late one so arriving at the apartments was around 1.30 am, was shocked at the amount of stairs to go down just to get to reception, at least 50 and quite steep. Checked in then was shown where our apartment was, omg up a very steep incline. Not good if you have mobility issues, certainly got a cardio workout! Wasn't happy with apartment 120 for various reasons, no sun, couldn't see out the kitchen window, etc etc. got the room changed a couple of days later in the main blocked. So much nicer thanks to the reception staff who made it possible. Outside pool area is really nice, Nikos in the bar, late afternoon & evening is very pleasant and played good music. We would probably go and stay again but would email ahead to request where you would prefer to stay.

Obversations are based on our stay in a superior sea view room on the top floor (road entrance) in October 2025 : LOCATION ; Coach transfer from the airport took approx 25 minutes although we were first drop off. The hotel position is excellent, situated in between Koutouloufari and Piskopiano, tavernas and supermarkets within 20 metres of the entrance, walk 20 minutes and you are in Hersonissos old town which is a charming little square and well worth a short walk. A 20 minute downhill walk from Koutouloufari and you are in the main stretch of Hersonissos with the port and everything else associated with a busy resort. The hotel provides a free return 8 seater shuttle bus into Hersonissos every day at 11am, 3pm and 6pm which is a very nice thought yet I cant help but wonder if it would be better served running every 2 hours from 10am until 8pm with maybe a small €1-2 per person fee so it becomes less costly for the hotel and more usable for the guests. I hope the management can consider and maybe trial this idea. The shuttle bus was in need of an internal clean and some internal maintenance, a taxi one way is €10. ROOM : Ours was smart and modern, lovely view, seperate shower room and bathroom, good drainage and no flooding or puddling in the shower room and the water pressure was consistent, condiments supplied were also good quality. The shower cubicle could do with a shelf because there is no where to put your stuff except for the floor, I hope the management take note. The room in general also lacked wall hooks, storage was good but there were no drawers. A free fridge, free A/C and free safe were provided. BBC world news on the TV, a kettle and pod coffee machine is in the room with complimentary teas and coffees upon arrival but these are not replenished during your stay. The balcony was an adequate size for 2 people with a table and 2 chairs and a wall mounted clothes airer, the dividing wall between next door was only 1 metre high and offered no privacy, this could be easily fixed and I hope the management take note. POOL AREA : Very smart with enough sun loungers during our stay in October but I wonder how this compares in high season, the sun loungers are good with many mattrass style and some in totally shaded areas too, pool bar pricing and daytime food options were very good although the vegetarian options were very limited, not every vegetarian wants salad every day ! I hope the management take note. The pool bar dining area also doubles up as the breakfast room and it is on the small side so I wonder what this would be like in high season, outdoor dining is limited compared to indoors. Buffet breakfast choices are excellent with continental and hot food options and everything was replenished constantly. A lot of reviews have mentioned the on site masseuse, our experience was that he was expensive and a little pushy around the pool touting for business, we said no twice and then he actually woke up my partner on her sun lounger to ask yet again if she would like a massage whilst I was not present and she was a little uncomfortable by this approach. We went to the beach in Stalis and had a massage there for half the price of the hotel. The beach in Stalis is lovely, pure sand a gentle 25 metre slope into the sea and you are still only chest deep, no pebbles or rocks and lots of beachside bars etc, a good day out, about 15-25 minutes on the local bus depending on the traffic for €2 per person each way or €15 in a taxi GENERAL : WIFI is good and consistent in all areas of the hotel, rooms are cleaned every day and towels and sheets changed every other day, tourist tax is €10 per room per night payable upon arrival, pool towels are available for a €10 refundable deposit, lots of reading books in the reception if required, all staff are friendly and the hotel is very clean, 60 steps from the road entrance down to the reception and pool but you can also walk down a little side road if the steps are a problem but with either option you have to come back up ! Leave your luggage at the top of the steps when you arrive and someone will take them to your room. Overall this is a very good hotel in an excellent spot, we never went into Hersonissos in the evening because there is more than enough choice on your doorstep, it isnt a rowdy location and there are no macdonalds or karaoke bars or quiz nights etc thank goodness, it is very traditional greek and we would certainly recommend it.

Just back from the Asterias Village Resort. Located between two nice villages. On a hill giving a lovely view but lots of steps within the complex alternatively there is a walkable slope but not recommended for those with mobility issues. Received upgraded room on arrival, hotel has free transport down to Hersonissos - nice touch. Very clean, and rooms serviced every day. Nice pool, although slippery and lots of sun beds. TV channels in English very limited with only news channels no entertainment channels. Good choice at breakfast. Staff friendly and helpful. Complex contains highly recommended Nautilus Spa with Michael providing excellent therapeutic/relaxing massages, resolving long term muscle strains expertly and with great care. Area has lots of lovely tavernas and restaurants. Great holiday, would recommend.

Great place to stay and relax. Really nice pool area in a lovely setting. Special thanks goes to Michael in the Nautilus Spa, for a really good massage to my back. And also to Nikos in the bar, who's local knowledge is invaluable when deciding to eat at the many excellent Tavernas locally. The only downside is the slope, up and down to get to the well appointed apartments.

We had a lovely stay at the Asterias and would recommend it to anyone except those with restrictive mobility issues (being slightly unfit shouldn't affect your stay though) due to the stairs. Decor-wise, I would say the room was average rather than basic; for what we paid, I certainly wasn't expecting the same standard as a boutique hotel but I was pleasantly surprised at the size of the bedroom, living area (two extra beds and a dining table with chairs), and especially the sea view terrace. The bed was firm and comfortable. The kitchenette was decently equipped with a microwave,hob,coffee machine, fridge, freezer, toaster and the usual tableware. The communal areas are lovely. I loved the pool area as the layout was certainly more creative than your bog standard rectangular pool with a load of rickety sunbeds squashed around it. The sunbeds, canopies and beanbags gave the pool area a contemporary, stylish look. We only ate at the pool bar on the last day - we had a hamburger and chicken burger, both of which were tasty and a good price. The bathroom was compact thus leading to a lack of a sufficiently enclosed shower, but I've been going to various Greek destinations for over 30 years and the fact that the temperature was consistent with adjustable water pressure compensated for this fact. The rooms are cleaned daily with fresh towels/bed linen. Air con is included in your stay. The shuttle bus to Hersonissos is another great perk, especially if you don't want to battle the hill in high temperatures. The location is great, koutouloufari to one side, Piskopiano to the other. All in all, a lovely complex with great staff. Would definitely stay again.

I first visited piskpino Crete 35 years ago for my honeymoon, so we wanted to go back on our 35th anniversary. The little village has changed so much, and yet still retains its charm and relaxed atmosphere. Lovely restaurant and taverns, Patrikos and Evines also the guys at the Irish bar . Great places for food and drink. The Asterias village hotel and apartments is a gem of a find, lovely staff great pool area and location is fantastic. However if you have any mobility issues, maybe not a great pick because of the steps that lead you to the main areas. We stayed in number 33 which was tastefully decorated with all that you need for comfort, also the internet service is great and free. Clean and friendly. You can also enjoy a massage from Michael who is very good . I definitely would recommend this accommodation and area also great safe place for solo travellers. I genuinely can't say enough how nice this place is . Top 5 day break. I will be back next year ..
