Overview

Grecotel Meli Palace offers the perfect Cretan getaway. Located on a pretty stretch of beach, it also features a range of activities, from pampering spa treatments to active options and a kids’ club – there is something for every type of traveller here.

Set on a beautiful beachfront and surrounded by olive, palm and wild fig trees, this resort provides impressive views and a secluded feel. The nearest town, Sissi, is a mile and a half away, and Heraklion Airport is 24 miles from the resort.
