Asterias Village Resort

"We have recently returned from a truly lovely holiday, we travelled with our 3 sons ages 18, 16 and 6, I usually book all inclusive with a water park, evening entertainment etc, the slides get used a few times and everyone gets fed up of the entertainment after a couple of nights...I was a bit worried as I knew it was a more relaxed type holiday with easy access to a couple of lovely very traditional villages, whilst half way through my 16 year old said it's the best holiday he has had which was really nice to hear. There a couple of things i would point out, firstly we booked 2 sea view rooms and when we arrived about 22.15 we were advised we had been upgraded to a villa with a private pool which we initially thought was amazing we chucked our cases in the room and then went for food as we had booked half board and we had until 11 PM to eat (which I think is a great time daily to be able to eat if you like eating later) when we got back to the room there was 2 double beds and a single, 1 double bed in a bedroom the other double and single in the living room, which obviously with 2 teenage sons was not suitable (not a chance they are sharing a bed).....we spoke with reception and unfortunately the first night was a bit uncomfortable as we could not change rooms until the following morning...that being said we were then offered a sea view room which we had paid for and then an upgrade to a superior room both rooms were beautiful and for reference were number 32 (sea view) and 41 (superior also with a sea view.....the villa was nowhere near as nice even with the private pool (our opinion obviously) .....All of the staff were absolutely lovely and really kind and helpful we felt very looked after.....Turning to the half board option, the breakfast was standard buffet style with everything you need and all nice......the evening meal was exceptional all cooked really nice and very generous portions, the restaurant staff became like friends but also not in your face....I would say that whilst there is plenty of choice it is a set menu that does not change so if you only like a few things it could get repetitive but we were very happy with it....This was such a relaxing holiday but if you wanted more action say for example in the centre of Hersonissos it was close by, the only thing missing for me was the beach, you could get the free bus shuttle to a beach but I read that it was pebble and I like a nice sandy beach and it was $20 euros each way so we only went a couple of times, you could get the bus but as there were 5 of us it would have been the same cost or there abouts......The villages at night are truly beautiful and so much choice for eating out. I would not hesitate to book if you like a relaxing type holiday with no bars that have pumping music etc, if that is what you want then this will not be for you xxxx"
