This Schauinsland-Reisen-Original hotel, built in a village style, was renovated in many areas by the summer of 2023. It features 87 rooms spread across a main building and several bungalow buildings, and offers a 24-hour reception, lobby, luggage room, Wi-Fi (included throughout the property), and the buffet restaurant "Olive Tree".
A highlight is the "Open Sky" rooftop bar, newly built in 2023, which invites guests to enjoy cocktails in the evening with a beautiful view. In the well-maintained hotel grounds, there is a swimming pool with an integrated children's pool and a renovated sun terrace, which invites you to linger with its gazebos, poufs, and comfortable sun loungers. The tropical Shisha Bar "Tropical" at the main pool also provides refreshments (shisha for a fee).
Sun loungers and umbrellas are included at the pool and the beach (at the "Paraplous" tavern; the tavern is for a fee). Beach towels are available for a deposit. Parking at the hotel is free, subject to availability.
Valid for Summer 2027:
From summer 2027, the newly built "Diamond Spirit" area will offer additional amenities. A successful combination of modern and traditional Cretan elements, warm colors, olive trees, sand under your feet, and fragrant herb beds create a holiday mood. A total of 147 rooms will be available. All guests will be warmly welcomed in the expanded lobby area with 24-hour reception. The existing modern "Olive Tree" restaurant offers ample space, live cooking stations, and varied buffets with Cretan and Greek dishes, as well as international influences. The "Theros" bar provides refreshments at the new pool. A new à la carte restaurant is now also available as "Meli&Thymari" and offers authentic Cretan dishes. In the new outdoor area, a pool stretches around the new building, inviting you to swim laps (the pool has no interruptions; you can swim through under the bridges; the pool can be used by all room types). All rooms on the ground floor offer a terrace with private sun loungers and direct access to the pool. For rooms on the first floor, comfortable sun loungers and Bali beds are available around the pool.
Above the new à la carte restaurant, the "Ammos&Nostos" lounge deck awaits guests looking for peace and quiet with a wonderful view and cozy furniture. In the adjacent outdoor fitness area "VistaFit," which features state-of-the-art equipment, yoga classes are also offered.
A central hub between the two hotel parts is the new, typical Cretan Kafenion "Rodaria." A meeting point to enjoy Greek coffee, raki, and light meze dishes while having pleasant conversations.
A special highlight is the new "Elaia" area – a place to relax under shade-giving olive trees, with loungers for resting, hammocks for dreaming, and six whirlpools.
A newly built paddle court provides further variety for sports.
