St Nicolas Bay Resort Hotel & Villas ★★★★★

Five-star luxury and designer elegance on the spectacular Cretan coast.

Exceptional
9.3 /10
By Jo Weston, VeryChic correspondent
For me, Crete has almost everything you could dream of in a holiday destination. It has history to excite Archaeology professors; a modern vibrancy to entice any social butterfly, and enough unique cultural heritage to feel like a country of its own. Out on its Eastern edge is the charming old fishing town of St. Nicolas, home to a resort that is too sophisticated to boast, but has received plenty of accolades. It has taken the luxury beachside dream and made it a reality - The St. Nicolas Bay Resort Hotel and Villas is one of Crete's most exquisite examples of hospitality.
