Hersonissos

Hotels and apartments

Chersonissos (or Hersonissos) is well known as one of Crete’s liveliest resorts, and there is a wide range of tavernas, shops, cafes, discos and other tourist amenities.

Its sand and shingle beach offers a wide variety of water sports.

Nearby on the hillsides the villages of Koutouloufari and Piskopiano however are quieter and offer visitors a much more relaxed and lower key style of holiday.

The neighbouring coastal resort of Stalis has beautiful sandy beaches and a rather laid back atmosphere.

There is a wide choice of nightlife in the neighbouring resorts of Chersonissos and Malia, just a short taxi ride away.
