Kalimera Kriti Hotel & Village Resort ★★★★★
Beautiful beachfront resort, designed like a Cretan village.
By Louise Jackson, VeryChic correspondent
Imagine a picturesque setting of Mediterranean gardens, with rolling mountains in the backdrop. Imagine waking up every morning to see the blue waters of the Cretan Sea reaching out onto the horizon. Imagine a peaceful night’s rest from crisp white bed linens. Imagine indulging in hours of soaking up the sun as you lounge around the pool. Imagine a world of activities and entertainment on offer to suit all ages and tastes. At Kalimera Kriti Hotel & Village Resort, you don’t need to imagine because here, this is reality.
A property that combines all the character and charm of ancient Cretan architecture with the comfort, convenience and style of a modern 5-star resort, this complex is comprised of three Cretan-style villages, along with a main building, that create an intimate feeling despite the grand scale of facilities available onsite. Facilities, such as three swimming pools, a fitness centre, a shopping arcade, six tennis courts and a mile-long stretch of private pristine white sandy beach, come together to create a resort that will never you wanting for anything.
Whether it’s pampering yourself from the serene surroundings of the spa or letting the adrenaline flow with a range of thrilling water sports, there’s an activity for every mood, both day and night. The modern amphitheatre is home to your evening entertainment, with high quality stage shows, live music and discos, while you’ll also have the chance to discover several bars and restaurants, each with its own unique character. Overlooking the Aegean Sea, the main Artemis restaurant has a delightful veranda from which you can enjoy Mediterranean and international cuisine.
Situated in an enviable position on the outskirts of the quaint fishing village of Sissi, this unspoilt area of north-east Crete has escaped the grasp of mass tourism. With a photogenic harbour and a scattering of shops, taverns and kafenions (traditional Greek coffee houses), this is an area where you can glimpse the quieter side of Cretan life. Don’t simply imagine, experience the imposing landscapes, famous sunsets, romance and relaxation of Kalimera Kriti Hotel & Village Resort for yourself.
