Your Hotel on the Beach
Within breathing distance from Heraklion
The ideal location for discovering Crete

Creta Beach Hotel & Bungalows is located just 5 kilometers away from Heraklion, the biggest city of Crete and main gate of entry in to the island for most visitors. Center of economic activity, with its traditional character still vibrant, Heraklion combines the old with the new, the traditional with the modern, the past merging harmoniously into the present.

The Venetian port with Koules fortress at its entrance, Morozini’s Fountain with the Lions in Heraklion’s, surrounded by cafeterias and restaurants, central square, the Town Hall housed in a 16th century Venetian building, the historic church of St. Marcus, the surrounding streets with all sorts of shops are just a few of the things that makes this a very special place.

A visit to the Archaeological Museum will reveal a magnificent collection of Minoan art and culture and findings from the Neolithic up to the Roman period.

Crete is linked in our minds with the Minoan civilization, and a visit to its epicenter, the famous Palace of Knossos, is a must. The distance from Heraklion is only 5 kilometers to the south.
 
Besides its glorious past Heraklion has a lively present. Bars with Greek and foreign music, places with traditional music, night clubs with modern sounds, taverns with unique Cretan dishes, a huge selection of entertainment possibilities for all preferences.
 
A place full of history, a place full of life, Heraklion has all that you need to enjoy your stay in Crete and is the ideal location from where you may start discovering the beauty of the whole island.
