Alexander Beach Hotel & Village 5* —
Just for you:
- 1 x bottle of wine upon arrival in room (per room, per stay)
Nestled along the shimmering northern coastline of Crete, Alexander Beach Hotel & Village 5* is a timeless seaside sanctuary where modern elegance meets centuries-old island heritage. Established in the 1990s, this graceful resort occupies a stretch of golden sand in the charming village of Malia, famed for its Minoan archaeological site that whispers tales of ancient civilisation just beyond its horizon.
Palm-lined walkways lead through whitewashed buildings framed by bougainvillaea, while the Aegean’s crystalline waters lie only a few steps from your room. By day, the soft hum of waves seems to echo the rhythms of local life; by night, the starlit beach and gentle coastal breeze evoke a tranquil, barefoot luxury that feels both classic and utterly Cretan.
