Luxury, serenity and stunning views are what the Sea Side Resort and Spa is all about.
Description
If you are seeking the ultimate in holiday luxury in the Aegean, call off the search. The Sea Side Resort and Spa resembles a 21st century take on ancient Greece, with minimalist clean lines in natural materials. The adults-only hotel is wrapped around the headland like a figurehead on the prow of a ship, with views out over the sea which will take your breath away.
There are cool, turquoise pools for relaxation at the upper level with panoramic views. Yet another is in the spa where massage and beauty treatments are available and equipment to maintain your fitness regime. Exercise and yoga classes also take place in the Asana fitness centre and, if you're feeling competitive, tennis, basketball and padel courts are on the agenda.
Indulge in the vast variety of cuisine with the likes of Minoan Cretan Taverna, UMI Restaurant and Oceano Restaurant. The main restaurant includes a stunning, large veranda overlooking the bay of Mononaftis. Here buffets are spread for the three meals of the day. Local cuisine and international dishes are served, with entertaining cookery demonstrations scheduled in too. With three bars to choose from, two poolside, you'll be able to ring the changes for morning coffee, afternoon tea and evening cocktails before selecting your favourite spot. Among the best that Crete has to offer, the hotel is in a quiet area 25km west of Heraklion city centre and just 80 metres from the beach of Mononaftis.
Please Note: Per every 7 nights of stay, guests are entitled to one free dinner in each one of the a la carte restaurants. Drinks are not included.
