Vardis Olive Garden Georgioupoli

Review by hotel critic

Nestled in a tranquil olive grove, the hotel offers a serene atmosphere away from the bustling tourist spots. The room, overlooking the mountains and the inviting pool area, was clean and spacious. The staff's warm hospitality, especially from Sofia, Thanie, and Maria, added a personal touch to my experience.While the amenities provided were adequate, including the well-maintained gardens and refreshing pool, the lack of certain facilities like a restaurant or on-site shops may be a drawback for some guests. However, the convenient car hire service arranged by the friendly staff helped in exploring the nearby attractions such as Lake Kournas and Giorgioupoli beach.The complimentary welcome drink was a nice gesture, setting the tone for a relaxing stay. The value for money at Vardis Olive Garden is notable, with free parking and Wi-Fi adding to the overall convenience. Despite minor communication issues during reservation, the staff's attentiveness and helpful nature made up for any shortcomings.In conclusion, Vardis Olive Garden offers a peaceful retreat with a good balance of comfort and affordability. If you seek a quiet escape surrounded by nature, this hotel provides a decent value proposition for a refreshing stay in Crete.
