We love —
- Cooling off in the outdoor seawater pool, before heading to the Mellow Bar for a refreshing "Mediterranean Feelings" cocktail, featuring mastiha, a delicious Greek ingredient.
- Experiencing moments of tranquillity at the hammam baths, before enjoying an evening of Cretan delicacies at the traditional Dacos Tavern.
- Unwinding in a charming retreat overlooking the Gulf of Elounda and the island of Spinalonga, where serene views and a soothing atmosphere set the tone for a relaxing stay.
