Bali is a small picturesque and beautiful fishing village in Northern Crete standing almost at the midpoint of the route connecting two of the major cities on the island. At a distance of just 47 kilometers from Iraklion, where the nearest airport and port are situated, and 32 kilometers from Rethymno, where you can travel by car or even sea taxi in the summer season. 

Amphitheatrically build on a small peninsula it enjoys a view of the small port. This is the ideal place for those who want to enjoy the sun, a clean calm sea with almost private sandy or pebbly beaches. It is particularly suitable for swimming and water sports, boating, fishing but also hiking in the surrounding area, filled with the colors and scents of Cretan land. Hotel Bali Star offers a relaxed and carefree holiday where you can enjoy coming closer to nature. 

Its leeward port, protected by the strong northern winds, is home to the fishermen’s trawlers and thus is the place to buy fresh fish all year around.

In Bali that in recent years developed from a small fishing village to a seaside resort, the visitor may now find a great variety of taverns, restaurants, small tourist shops, super markets, cafes and bars, as well as a medical center and pharmacy, but also a diving school. 

The exquisite beaches of the area await you to discover them, as do the beautiful traditional villages near or at a greater distance from Bali, such as Fodele, Sises or Anogeia.
