Dreamy Cretan getaway
Nestled in the heart of Hersonissos, just a short jaunt from Heraklion, Creta Maris is more than just a holiday – it's a celebration of all things Cretan. This all-inclusive beach resort has it all – culture, cuisine, and natural beauty.
Fancy a dip? Take your pick from the 17 sparkling pools across the resort (seven outdoor pools, five children's pools, one outdoor heated pool and one indoor heated pool, plus an exclusive area featuring four additional pools reserved for guests staying in the Exclusive Adult Rooms, three of which are heated) or make a splash at the on-site waterpark, featuring slides, towers, and lazy rivers. For the little ones, the kids’ club promises fun-filled days with games and activities; the hotel offers a baby room for ages 0-5, a kids' club for 4-12 year olds, a teens' club for 13-17 year olds, and even an open-air cinema (June-Sept). Grown-ups can sneak off to the steam room for some well-deserved pampering or hit the fully equipped gym. Feeling sporty? From tennis to water polo, there's no shortage of ways to work up a sweat.
Foodies and fussy eaters, rejoice! With seven outstanding restaurants offering a unique culinary experience including Estia family restaurant, there is enough choice for anyone. From traditional Cretan BBQ at Mademi to fresh seafood at Alatsi your taste buds are in for a treat. Fancy a drink? Eleven bars, including Sima Bar, serve up everything from local wines to creative cocktails and tempting light-bites. Don't miss the Nami Wine Cellar for an exquisite wine-tasting experience.
Looking for a bit of grown-up time? Unwind in one of the fully renovated Exclusive Adult Rooms. Available for guests 16+, they come with access to an exclusive area complete with 4 pools, 3 of which are heated, a bar with drinks and snacks, and a dedicated section of the Blue Flag beach - all within the Exclusive Adult Rooms area. It's the perfect spot to unwind with a good book and a chilled cocktail.
From Greek dance lessons to starlit cinema nights, Creta Maris keeps the entertainment flowing. So whether you're building sandcastles on the Blue Flag beach or sampling local spirits at a tasting session, you're in for a proper Cretan treat. Ready to dive into your Mediterranean adventure?
Just so you know, reservations are required for dining in the a la carte and theme restaurants. Alatsi seafood restaurant operates as adults-only (16+) on some days.
