This adults-only retreat sits within walking distance of one of Crete’s most beautiful beaches. Spend serene days stretched out by the private saltwater pool or lounging on the terrace with a book in hand. Inside, the vibe is laid-back luxury, with an en-suite Jacuzzi for ultimate relaxation. The kitchen is on the smaller side, but with breakfast served daily in the on-site restaurant and seaside tavernas just a short stroll away, cooking might not be on the agenda. And if you do fancy picking up some local produce, the village market is right next door.

About Crete
The biggest of Greece’s islands, Crete has thousands of years of history scattered across its wild hinterland, and a coast dotted with secluded bays. The capital of Heraklion is a lively port city with a world-class museum, but the main draw to the island are the crumbling ruins, white mountains, and crystal clear waters for swimming and snorkeling.
