We stayed at the Anna Maria Hotel in August and I must say that the value for money is really excellent. Compared to many other structures in the area, here we found a much more advantageous but no less valid solution, on the contrary: the hotel is delightful, surrounded by greenery and quiet, ideal for couples and families; the buffet is fairly varied and offers many interesting Cretan specialities, large and clean rooms, swimming pool and hydromassage. Very kind owners, always available and approachable, definitely recommended

Hotel's Favorite
We spent two weeks at this hotel at the beginning of September 2022. This was our second visit, the first was 12 years ago. Over the years, the hotel has been completely renovated, our room was new and modern, everything was clean and in order: shower, TV, air conditioning (one of the best in my experience, quiet and efficient), furniture. The maids do their best (don't forget to tip them).
Breakfast was almost the same every day, but the choice of dishes was sufficient for us. Dinners were different and of good quality, trays of dishes were constantly replenished. The hotel area is clean and green. For a three-star hotel I can confidently give the maximum rating.
Special thanks to Loukas, he did everything to make our stay as pleasant and hassle-free as possible.
We bought some groceries from a nearby supermarket, sometimes we went to Lidl (20-25 minutes). Hersonissos is a 25-minute walk along the sea. About the beaches. The best beach is nearby, in a bay under a cliff (on the photo). Clear water, no waves, sandy beach. Two sun loungers with an umbrella cost 10 euros. On the beach you can order drinks, cocktails, for a very reasonable price. The cost of a taxi transfer to Heraklion Airport is 40 euros (was 35 euros but has risen in price).

Extreme kindness of all staff and great welcome. The location of the village is great if you are looking for a quiet place without the night caciara, but still 2 km from Chersonissos where instead the nightlife is very lively.
August is windy and the sea of the north coast rough and with a lot of posidonia. The cove of Anissaras (Saradari beach) is protected from the wind and the sea is almost always calm and crystal clear.
The breakfast and dinner buffet is rich and varied with many things typical of Greek cuisine. Excellent meat, soft and tasty.
Thorough cleaning of the room.
Structure highly recommended.

I higly recommend Anna Maria Village. We visited the hotel in May for our wedding, we stayed there one week. The hotel is located in Hersonissos, about 30mins by car from Heraklion. The rooms are really nice, cleaned shiny everyday. We had there breakfasts and dinners as well. Everyday there was a big variety of food, which was delicious and a way better from the others hotels which we have visited. Especially on the dinner, which in my opinion is worth to take as you stay there. You can try the greek food and also seafood.There were always several main dishes to choose, some sweets, fruits and other. The service was really great, starting from the barman and finishing with the waitresses. The view from the hotel rooms is nice. There is the swimming pool available as well and the hotel is located only about 10mins by feet from the seaside. The nature which is surrounding the property is beautiful with many flowers. Late check in is not a problem - you just need to let the owner know about it. The hotel is being managed by an amazing family, who can help you with everything what is needed. Manolis did everything for us to have a comfortable holiday and made us feel that we are friends from a long time. Thank you once again for everything! Ευχαριστώ πολύ, όλη περάσαμε πολύ ωραία! 😊

It’s a wonderful place to stay. You will have polite and warm service, tasty food and a swimming pool. It’s a family business so the owners are very welcome, attentive and ready to help with and question or problem we had. They don’t have their own beach but you can walk 10-15 min and find nice places to stay. Отличный отель. Всем рекомендую.

Really recommend this place. For the price we got it lets say it was more than perfect. Nice environment, clean room, friendly staff. The only thing about food, there were no pancakes or waffles for children in the morning during 7 days of staying. Could be better breakfast. The location not far away from Chersonisos, you can walk by the sea to the city so you dont feel the distance with such a wonderful view. There are quite a few public beach places not far away from the hotel.

Very nice and cozy hotel.
My husband and I were very pleased.
The food was very good and a lot. I still remember that moussaka very delicious 🤤 The food area very clean.
The staff very respectfully and paid attention at details. We had a promo room (like an apartment), not the best quality if you are spoiled but very very spacious with two balconies, small kitchen with oven, and a spacious bathroom. Everything very clean. The clean ladies were very respectfull and they were cleaning everyday. The piscine clean, and the atmosphere very calm and quite. We relaxed very much. The beach is 10 min away. You have 2/3 choicees of beach. We loved The color of the water very much. You can walk to Chersonissos like 25 minutes along the beach is a road. And also you have Lidl at 20 minutes walk from hotel. If you want to buy something else is very useful.
The kitchen chef cooked something for my husband in the first or second day because my husband is sensitive at some foods after covid19 and the kitchen chef was so nice to cook something different for him in that day! We were very amazed by his kindness. And in the last day on departure we ask to make us a small breakfast package and they put sandwiches fruits and juice/water. Very kind people. Your staff is precious. May God Bless you. We had a nice stay.

Pros:
Fantastic beaches only 10 minute walk
Good shop on site
Personal space was good with patio or balcony
Cons:
Very little on your doorstep, we ended up paying between €20-€30 each night for a taxi to a surrounding village for meals and drinks.
Had very little interaction with staff - not even a hello in a morning - with exception of room cleaners and gentleman with dark hair on the desk, note they did talk to some people (maybe regulars?)
Sheets and towels were not changed after Monday until we checked out Friday
Breakfast not bad, not great but did feel like a bit of a cattle market trying to get it.
Cannot get any drinks or snacks at the pool, have to leave and go to restaurant at the roadside

We had a lovely time at Anna Maria Village. The staff is so friendly and helpful and the rooms are great. There is a nice pool and they have a great breakfast and dinner buffet :) Also the location was perfect for us. It's walking distance from Chersonnisos (20-30 mins) so you're close to the action but still in a relaxed atmosphere. For us it was the perfect way to explore Crete.

We came to the hotel early in the morning, and we have been told that there are no free rooms and we will stay in other hotel for one night..after some discussion, we had to stay in one appartment with another couple :) appartment was liek a villa, with private pool, so it was not so bad.
About the food - almost same food every day, just water to drink in the evening, and some powder juice in the morning. Stuff is counting your food, and looks unhappy if You go for some food second or third time. If You are coming at the end of the dinner/breakfast - the choice of the food is even smaller.
The location is really bad, long walk to the closest city.
We got a room the next day, it was ok room, but later we realised ants everywhere in the room, we woke up at the night few times because the ants were bitting us.
Will never choose same hotel again.
