Went to this hotel with my family and all I can say is absolute masterpiece. As soon as we had a first look of the hotel and came inside I was greeted with some amazing staff and made us feel very comfortable for our first time, then as we made it to our room we felt so heartwarming with how clean they tidied the room for us! Then as we woke up in the morning we went and had a absolute delicious breakfast with a variety of choices. The best part is when we saw the pool for the first time it was so massive! And there was toys you can play with when you go in the pool like floats and balls, the lifeguard kept watching over us just in case something wrong happened and I am very thankful for this, there is also a bar with some nice drinks and snacks. And can I explain how amazing the location is located! It has a supermarket and mini market next to it with a nice restaurant which have some nice gyros, All I can say is i totally recommend this place, Thank you for this lovely experience for our first time in Greece!

My first time in Greece and this hotel and staff made me feel very welcome. The staff were very friendly and always ready to help. The rooms are spacious with a nice balcony - rooms are cleaned everyday and towels are changed every 2 days. The air con worked perfectly too which is vital in the scorching Greek weather. The pool was also very nice with a lifeguard accompanying it. One of the best things about the hotel is the location, there is a big supermarket in front of it and a lidl 2 minutes walk. There is also a bus stop right outside the hotel which made transportation to and from Heraklion simple and fast. Hotel is 10 minutes drive to the airport. Had a wonderful first time experience here. I would highly recommend!

At Hotel Vanisko, unfortunately, our experience has been quite negative. The treatment we received from the staff left much to be desired.

The lifeguard, instead of ensuring the safety and well-being of all guests, focused solely on scolding my children for swimming to the end of the pool, even though my son has been swimming confidently for years. Strangely, other much younger children received no such warnings, despite engaging in the same activity throughout the day.

In addition, the morning bar waitress told us the card machine wasn’t working, yet later that afternoon we saw her using it without issue. When I asked her not to heat the milk—but also not to serve a cold cappuccino—she looked at us with clear disapproval, as if our preferences were somehow wrong. I truly hope she never encounters such an attitude in Spain, because we do not treat visitors this way.

Lastly, in the buffet area, one of the staff members did not allow us to sit at our chosen table, even though there were empty ones available, and instead forced us to sit near the entrance, all while speaking to us in an unpleasant tone in her own language.

Frankly, and with all due respect, if you're Spanish and value polite, respectful treatment, I do not recommend this hotel.
This kind of treatment would not happen even in the worst hotel in Spain, and this one supposedly presents itself as a quality establishment. Your personal isn't polite.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Vanisko Hotel in Crete, and I can honestly say it was one of the most heartwarming and enjoyable hotel experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere felt warm, welcoming, and genuinely caring – a true reflection of what a family-run hotel should be.

The service was exceptional. Every single staff member we encountered went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and happiness. Their guest-oriented approach made us feel more like visiting friends than hotel guests. Whether it was a recommendation for a local restaurant, help with directions, or just a warm smile at breakfast – they were always ready to help with genuine kindness.

The hotel itself was clean, cozy, and well-maintained, and the location was perfect for exploring the beautiful island of Crete. It was clear that the owners take great pride in creating a welcoming and relaxing environment for their guests.

I would highly recommend Vanisko Hotel to anyone visiting Crete who values personal service, a family atmosphere, and authentic Greek hospitality. We will absolutely be returning – thank you to the entire team for making our stay so special!

Despite the noise from a group of like 50 people (sounds insane but it was) it was difficult for staff to handle but they handled it great. We had no complaints about noise. We didn't enjoy the breakfast 'cause we got up late but we enjoyed the pool, we enjoyed the hospitality and the beach is 200m away. We were three guys staying here and we really liked it. The rooms were clean, there was AC and just in general a good vibe for a 'cheaper price', yet also close to the centre of Heraklion and beaches. We WILL come back. We liked it a lot! And they allowed us to leave our baggage after check-out which is also a plus on Crete.

If your flight gets cancelled and you're reading this review, the hotel isn't all that bad. The staff were nice and so was the food. Be sure to take a trip to the supermarket opposite as they had some amazing cheap food. Check the fruit aisle!

Mot much else around worth exploring.

Friendly reception. Clean rooms. Rather small balcony. The bus stop is in front of the hotel, easy to get to the city centre (bus 1 and 20) and back (bus 6). Supermarket over the street. Short walk to the public beach. The best advantage were early breakfast hours (7-10). The pool was also nice, not many people there and suprisingly I couldn't hear the traffic from the street that much.

We came to this hotel for 4 nights due to our easy jet flight being cancelled. Our first room was extremely basic and not the nicest but did the job for an emergency room. We then found we needed to be here for another 3 nights. The man at the reception was extremely helpful with getting hold of easy jet etc and securing us a place to stay for the next 3 nights.

The room we were then put in was nice. There is a weird musty smell as you walk in, the shower is a wet room but doesn’t actually drain properly. Breakfast is okay. Lunch is just spaghetti, sauce and some meat. The juice machine doesn’t work and just pours water. Dinner is the same.

It’s a lovely area though, beautiful beach, big supermarket across the road and some lovely restaurants around.

This hotel seemed to be recently renovated so everything was in great condition. The staff was exceptionally friendly and service was great. Hotel is not a "strip" hotel, but bus transport is right outside that can take you downtown and to the bus station to connect to other areas. 2great supermarkets are 5 minutes walk from the hotel so you can stock up on room snacks very easily. Breakfast was very good with excellent continental as well as eggs and bacon options. Many types of pastries, breads and fruits were available as well as cerials, cheeses and lunch meats. Pool was clean and refreshing after a day out. Only thing I could suggest to improve the pool bar menu to include more snack options for people who want to eat a quick meal at that facility. I would not hesitate in recommending this hotel as a base from which to explore the rest of Crete. A

We were placed here when our flight was cancelled. We were greeted by a very abrupt man on the reception who didn’t speak much English who gave us our room card. Room was very basic but did have air con. We had breakfast and dinner included which were awful not much choice for either and gave us a bad stomach. If your flight is cancelled I wouldn’t stay here and insist tui place you somewhere else. I wouldn’t recommend this place.
