“This hotel positions itself as a family-friendly place near the beach, with most rooms having either sea or garden views. The outdoor pool certainly catches the eye, and having a poolside breakfast sounds like a pleasant way to start the day. I think its proximity to both the beach and local nightlife would make this a convenient base for exploring Crete.”
