Overview
Cayo Exclusive Resort & Spa sits in a popular area of Crete, near a pebble beach. This sophisticated and environmentally conscious hotel has a spa and offers high-quality service with a touch of Greek hospitality.
The resort is set on the hillside of Elounda Bay, overlooking Spinalonga Island – two cable railways transport you from the reception to the rooms and the facilities. The pebble stone Plaka Beach is less than a quarter mile away from the hotel where you'll find Stone Beach by Cayo – an area for Cayo guests (a shuttle transfer is available). Cayo Exclusive Resort & Spa is just 250 metres from the picturesque village of Plaka with its charming restaurants, souvenir shops, cafeterias and local supermarket. To explore further afield, take the bus, which stops nearby or hire a car – the hotel has a free parking area. The town of Agios Nikolaos is ten miles away, and both the city of Heraklion and Heraklion Airport are 41 miles away.
The hotel’s bioclimatic architecture utilises a man-made slope to make the most of natural warmth and light, whilst respecting the surrounding areas. A heat recovery system uses the heat from air conditioning units to warm the main building’s water. Modern, with traditional Cretan influences, comfortable guest rooms are soundproofed, all have a spacious furnished balcony or patio and a private pool. Amenities include free Wi-Fi, Nespresso machine, desk and hairdryer. The hotel also provides a pillow menu, bathrobes and slippers. You can order room service at any hour (limited menu after certain hours), and nightly turndown service is provided.

Other facilities
During your stay, you can relax in the hotel’s spa with a hot stone or Swedish massage. Try an aromatherapy experience or a reflexology session; otherwise, just unwind in the sauna. There is an indoor relaxing pool and steam room too. The spa also operates a hair and beauty salon. Head to the on-site boutique for a browse or sink into one of three open-air pools.
If you’re keen to explore the outdoors, the beach is a short walk away, perfect for a swim or a bit of sunbathing. You can also hire a bike from the hotel and explore the surrounding hills, wander around the gardens and soak up the rays on the sun terrace. Back the hotel, you'll also find a two level gym complete with a range of equipment and a dedicated yoga studio.
Dining information
With every menu created by Michelin-starred chef Lefteris Lazarou, dining options at Cayo Exclusive Resort & Spa don’t disappoint. The main restaurant overlooks Spinalonga Island and the hotel pool, offering international cuisine in a buffet setting for breakfast and dinner. If you get hungry during the day, The Pool Restaurant serves lunch and snacks on selected days, as does The Beach House, located moments from the pebble beach. For a treat, make a dinner reservation at the themed Greek Gourmet Restaurant, with a focus on local cuisine. Make sure to plan ahead, because it’s only open on certain days of the week.
