Vantaris Palace

Located in Georgioupolis on the longest beach in Crete, this hotel is a 45-minute drive east from the ancient city of Chania. Within moments of stepping out of the hotel’s back doors, you can be on the sandy shores playing volleyball, drinking cocktails, and swimming in the sparkling turquoise sea. 

Vantaris Palace provides comfortable and contemporary accommodation, with spacious rooms and suites, all featuring air conditioning, free Wi-Fi, a flatscreen TV, a private bathroom, and a spacious terrace to enjoy. Some of the rooms offer garden views, while others offer partial or full-on sea views – go for the Junior Suite if you want your own pool with views looking out to the Aegean Sea.

You won’t want to spend too much time in your room here, though, as a large outdoor swimming pool and a garden area awaits. If you fancy indulging in some rejuvenating treatments, head to the spa and book in with the masseuse, and use the indoor pool and sauna facilities to properly unwind. A bar and nightclub will provide an evening's entertainment, while two restaurants will keep you fuelled up to hit the beach and explore the best bits of the island.
