A base between beach and old town

Set between Chania’s old-town magic and the calm sands of Kato Daratso, this hotel puts beach days and city strolls on your doorstep. Wander to Agii Apostoli’s pine-fringed coves or Golden Beach’s shallow waters, then hop on the local bus for Venetian harbours, market halls and sunset spritzes in Chania. Frequent buses make journeys to the centre simple.

Life at the hotel slows around two palm-lined swimming pools, sundecks and leafy gardens. There’s a casual pool bar for iced coffees and late-afternoon mezze, plus a friendly restaurant serving Cretan classics – think dakos, grilled fish and garden-fresh salads. Free Wi-Fi and on-site parking keep things easy, while bike and car hire make exploring a breeze.
