Holidays in Crete effortlessly blend modernity and tradition – for every nocturnal area there is a quaint village seemingly untouched by tourism, along with pockets of Crete that will appeal to everyone.
You’ll be hypnotised by the picturesque scenery and crystal clear waters that adorn this magical island. Take a five star break at St Nicolas Bay Resort Hotel & Villas, for a slice of boutique luxury. If you’re feeling adventurous, explore the traditional inland villages or the dramatic Samaria Gorge. The sights of the island are truly spectacular, from the ancient city of Knossos to the Venetian harbour of Chania. As the sun goes down, the focus turns to the island’s entertainment and nightlife: day-into-night clubs in Hersonissos, hangouts in the old town of Rethymnon and harbour-side tavernas serving the freshest catch.
From small properties perfect for the two of you to our larger villas to fit the whole family.
Enjoy the space and freedom villa holidays allow, including relaxing by the pool. Did you know almost all of our villa holidays include private pools? Bliss.
The bustling seaside town of Elounda is Crete’s luxury 5 star resort. Situated north of Aghios Nikolaoa this indented coastline boasts picturesque beaches and crystal clear waters. The colourful harbour and main square are at the heart of the action – with plenty of authentic Greek tavernas and friendly bars. There is also a lot to do and see in this area - visit the island of Spinalonga, walk along the peninsula of Kolokytha or explore the tiny villages.
