Location

Taken over by the Enorme hotel chain, the Maya Beach hotel impresses with its simple design and a modern, adults-only concept (16+).
In addition to the magnificent view over the bay of Gouves, its proximity to the town offers the opportunity to discover local restaurants, bars, and shops just a short walk (approx. 500 m) away. Heraklion airport is 18 km away.

Facilities

The modern "boho" ambience makes this intimate property with 70 rooms a very special place to holiday. In addition to plenty of relaxation, sometimes underscored by DJ music, the selection of food will make your heart beat faster. From super bowls and bao buns to sushi, there is something for everyone. You will be welcomed in the lobby with a 24-hour reception; a TV room is also part of the facilities. Wi-Fi is included in all public areas. Outside, comfortable loungers and gazebos around the pool ensure there are plenty of spots to lie down. The outdoor fitness area invites you to work out. The beach bar provides refreshments and cocktails from 10 am to 1 am; small snacks are also available until 5:30 pm. The sushi bar is open from 12 pm to 5:30 pm. There is also a shisha bar.
