Overview

The fun-filled Fodele Beach and Waterpark Holiday Resort is a haven of entertainment for the whole family. Dive into the selection of pools or enjoy the slides in the thrilling water park, play an array of sports – including tennis and water polo or simply bask in the bliss of the Wellness Centre. The exclusive beach area and two bars with beach views add more wow factor while a mixture of buffet and a la carte dining, guarantee top-tier choices for everyone.

Perched upon a sandy coloured cliffside above Fodele Beach, this resort’s elevated spot spoils you with views of blue hued waves unravelling onto soft sands. The hotel is steps away from Fodele Beach, while East Beach is under one mile away. For some sightseeing, head just under two miles away to Fodele – the claimed birthplace of the artist El Greco, where quaint streets are filled with tavernas and Byzantine churches. Don’t miss the El Greco Museum in the outskirts of the village, where you can also see the tranquil lush greenery and olive groves. If you crave more history, Heraklion – the island’s capital, is only 18 miles away and hosts the renowned Archaeological Museum. Or head to the Venetian Harbour, which is surrounded by an ancient fortress and provides postcard-worthy scenery. Heraklion International Airport is 19 miles away.

The hotel’s decor exudes a trendy modern aesthetic. Crisp white bedding is dressed up with hessian and cool grey pillows for ultra sleek vibes and quirky Sunset Rooms have bursts of vivacious orange for a playful flair. Couples will love the eccentric Sun Rooms which host complementary yellow feature walls and pillows, while families will appreciate the wooden partition and two additional sofa beds in the Seafront Family Rooms – along with the pacifying sea views. For an upgraded experience, opt for a Premium Suite, where space is no concern. Enjoy two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room and an outdoor space, so you can truly unwind.

Other facilities

Relax on the hotel’s dedicated bay at Fodele Beach, where a range of sun loungers and umbrellas await on caramel sands. There are also three swimming pools, framed by picturesque bay views and sophisticated latte toned umbrellas for ultimate relaxation. If adventure takes your fancy, head to the water park and glide down multi slides, kamikaze slides and if you’re brave enough – the freefall slides. Little ones can also join in the fun at the children’s pool, where an octopus sculpture features smaller slides.

Children aged between 4 and 12 years old can continue the fun at the kids’ club. Crafts, as well as an indoor play area and outdoor playground, will keep little ones entertained. Meanwhile, older children and adults will love the jam-packed sports offerings. Perfect your serve at the two on-site tennis courts or dive into a game of volleyball. You can also enjoy mini-golf, beach football and some fabulous aqua fitness classes or water polo – if you’re feeling competitive.

For a more laidback activity, visit the Wellness Centre and pamper yourself to perfection with the range of facials and massages. Choose an Aloe Shine treatment – which is ultra-soothing during hot summer days or opt for a Hydra Face facial – a treatment that sources avocado from Chania and Cretan olive oil to moisturise and give you that coveted glow.

There is also a Fitness Room on site with Cybex and Technogym equipment, as well as bikes and treadmills.
