We had such an amazing time at Cressa Ghitonia Village! The hotel is part of the cutest little Cretan village high up on the hill (quite an adventurous drive up ;) ) with the most spectacular view of the mountains and the sea. We stayed both in the Traditional Double Room and the Suite Euterpe, which were both very clean, charming rooms with lots of character, being restored tradional Cretan houses. The breakfast buffet was amazing and offered slightly different choices every day , the food at the restaurant was very good, too. The hotel offers various different activities throughout each week like a Cretan night at their restaurant with local musicians or a hike down the mountains to a waterfall and beach.
We loved the whole area and it's breathtaking views, but be prepared to spend some time driving around to find your perfect beach. Our favorite was Vai beach, although it is around an 1-hour drive away (gorgeous scenery!). Lastly, the staff was super nice and welcoming and made our stay very memorable. Thank you so much to the whole team! We'd absolutely recommend this beautiful hotel!
