Overlooking the expanse of the Loutraki bay, Rocky Rhapsody has much to brag about. We particularly cannot get enough of the exteriors. Be it barbecue sessions by the infinity pool, the hot-tub soaks under starry skies or the garden filled with cooking herbs, there's a whole lot of beauty to fill up the senses. If one would rather stay in, not only do we endorse the super plush bedding and high-spec kitchen, one can drown in the bottomless pit of entertainment options (think home cinema, video games and board games). At less than 200 meters away, there's a quiet sandy beach with a restaurant and a cafe. Although if museums, restaurants and pristine waterfront are on your mind, do head out for a day trip to Chania, that's a twenty-minute-drive away.

About Kokkino Chorio
Wander along Kokkino Chorio’s picturesque streets, and you’ll soon see why this sleepy village played a starring role in the 1964 Academy Award-winning film ‘Zorba the Greek’. Even so, it wasn’t until recently that European tourists got wind of its seaside charm and began flocking to it in the warm, summer months, enjoying gorgeous views of Souda Bay and sampling local, Cretan cuisine at a handful of family-run tavernas.
