“Villa Marina provides a solid base for exploring Hersonissos and the surrounding area, particularly for families or those seeking a longer stay. The family-run atmosphere fosters a welcoming environment, while the well-maintained grounds and home-cooked meals add a personal touch. While some may find the location a bit removed from the beach, I found the value hard to beat, especially with easy access to local buses for island exploration.”
