Why we love it
The setting
Minos Palace sits on its own seafront strip in Agios Nikolaos, on the north-east coast of Crete. The hotel is adults-only, so the mood stays calm. Rooms and suites face the water, and a private beach with sun loungers runs along the shore. Minos Beach is about 340 metres away and Ormos Beach a little further, so you can swap between the hotel's own sand and the public stretches. The pool sits close to the sea, with a terrace and garden around it.
What to expect
The Standard Double room comes with a full double bed, a private bathroom and air conditioning. Breakfast is included each morning. Around the property you will find a restaurant looking out to the bay, a bar, a fitness centre, a sauna and a spa with massage treatments. There is a seasonal outdoor pool, beach and pool towels, room service and a concierge. Free Wi-Fi and parking are available, and reception is staffed around the clock.
Things to do nearby
The hotel is roughly 1.3 km from the Port of Agios Nikolaos, where you will find the harbour cafes and the small Lake Voulismeni. Several beaches sit within walking distance: Ammoudi at about 684 metres, Akti Kounthourou near 867 metres and Mirabello Beach around 931 metres. Kitroplateia Beach, closer to the town centre, is about 1.5 km away. The town itself is an easy walk along the coast for tavernas and shops.
Best for
Couples after a quiet seafront base in Crete. The adults-only policy and private beach suit anyone who wants calm days by the water with breakfast sorted and the town within reach.
