Chilled-out beachside stay in Crete
For laid-back beach holidays with a dash of Cretan charm, this one's a brilliant pick. It’s right by Maleme Beach with sweeping views over the Cretan Sea and the White Mountains. Platanias, a lively resort packed with shops, bars and restaurants, is just a 10-minute drive away.
This modern, eco-friendly hotel has two outdoor pools perfect for cooling off under the Mediterranean sun. There’s a family-friendly atmosphere here, with board and field games on offer to keep everyone entertained. If you like to keep things moving, you can try some early morning yoga, or head out and explore the local area.
The Ambrosia Restaurant serves up all-inclusive buffets inspired by the famously healthy Cretan diet. Expect dishes packed with fresh, local ingredients from the hotel’s own gardens and olive groves, all drizzled in extra virgin olive oil made from their South Crete trees. No immortality guaranteed, but your taste buds will be happy.
Whether you're craving sun-soaked days by the pool or laid-back Cretan adventures, Maleme Mare Beachside Hotel serves up the perfect slice of holiday bliss.
