The romantic city of Hersonissos entices visitors with popular attractions including Crete Golf Club and Acqua Plus Water Park, and is loved for the beach.
Imagine strolling along Heraklion Port for some great waterfront pics. It's located 0.6 mi (0.9 km) from central Heraklion.
Our travelers also like the museums in the area— your cultural tour starts here.
When you can't wait to soak up some sun, head to Balos Beach— one of the most popular seaside spots located 6.9 mi (11.2 km) from central Kissamos. Catch the sunset by the shore at Balos Lagoon, just a short walk away.
If you can't wait to get to the beach, you might enjoy a trip to Stalis Beach in the heart of Stalida. Enjoy the sunset by the shore at Malia Beach, Potamos Beach, and Palm Bay Beach.
You can stroll along Old Venetian Harbor for relaxing water views when you're in Old Town Chania. Why not take a stroll along the beaches and watch the sunset while you're here? If you carry on walking you'll get to Koum Kapi Beach and Nea Chora Beach for some more water views.
Whether you want to hunt for sand dollars or smell the fresh air, Agia Marina Beach is a spot you might want to check out, located 0.4 mi (0.7 km) from central Agia Marina. Enjoy the sunset by the shore at Stalos Beach, Platanias Beach, and Kalamaki Beach.
If being by the water is a major draw, Nea Chora Beach is a spot you might want to check out, located 0.8 mi (1.2 km) from central Chania. Catch the sunset by the shore at Golden Beach and Aptera Beach, located nearby.
Very friendly and helpful staff. There is only street parking, but not hard to find, behind the hotel area. So many restaurants right there. Drove to the most famous Cretan beaches, but the local beach is also very nice. very picturesque. We could see the lighthouse from our window.

We could not have enjoyed our stay at Azade and Crete more. The location in old town is so convenient and close to all shops, restaurants and beaches. Staff were attentive, welcoming and knowledgeable. They even prepared us a breakfast to pick up when we had an early morning tour to Samaria Gorge. Rooms were clean and beautifully decorated. We loved our stay.

This hotel was great! The room was a great size and had spectacular views of the harbor. Everyone is very helpful and you also have access to all the amenities of the main Chania Hotel a few blocks away.

Small resort on the hill overlooking the sea. New pool is sweet. We had a hot tub room, which was perfect. We overheard others with saying the private pools were too cold to hang out in. Breakfast was delicious. Walking to the beach town nearby was fun. Roads are very narrow and dark at night. It’s easy to get a cab back to the hotel.

My and my boyfriend really enjoyed this hotel. The staff was hospitable and helpful, trying to make your stay comfortable. Our room was well-cleaned daily. It had two separate beds, one next to another, two bedside lamps, wardrobe, desk with two chairs, mirrror and little fridge. We booked room with beautiful sea view (little more expensive) from large balcony with small plastic table and two chairs. If it comes to bathroom, shower was little annoying beacuse of small shower tray - after taking...

This hotel has a high rating for a reason.
Service is excellent! We left early last day and found a bad of sandwiches, fruit and water waiting for us upon checkout. Breakfast is good and abundant. Bar staff is friendly and gives great service. Only thing I would improve is size of the gym but still it has a lot of gear.
Will be staying again.

No complaints whatsoever about or stay. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful and accommodating. The room was spotless, the bed was comfortable, the view from the balcony gorgeous. I’d have loved if the pool was heated, but otherwise, the stay was absolutely perfect.

My husband and I were celebrating our 10 year wedding anniversary and spent 2 weeks enjoying the beautiful Greek Isles. Crete was our last island to visit, Wow! did the Blue Palace meet/exceed our expectations! We had a bungalow suite with fabulous sea view. Every night the hotel had something in our room for us....from fresh flowers to a bowl of fresh fruit and one night an small cake with Happy Anniversary written on it. The service was outstanding. You can take the lift down to the pool...
