Family-focused luxury in Crete
Looking for a luxurious family escape? Let us give you a head start. The Grecotel Meli Palace has got you covered – from its off-the-beaten-track location in sleepy Agia Vavara to its well-thought out facilities. From its beachfront perch between Mediterranean greenery – think olive trees, cacti, and beautiful hibiscus – the hotel feels pretty secluded, but a five-minute cab ride will take you to Sissi.
You get the best of both worlds when it comes to swimming spots – the outdoor pool comes with sweeping sea views, and the beach is just a few paces away if you fancy a dip in the sea. There’s also a poolside bar, and a separate pool for splash-making little ones. Looking for some me time? Head to the spa – which is home to a sauna, a hot tub, a gym, a beauty salon, and a relaxation lounge – and treat yourself to a massage. The spa even offers mini-massages for kids, alongside its usual treatments.
