About us

Fragrant gardens lapped by azure waters and palm-fringed lagoons swirling past natural stone terraces are the hallmarks of this relaxing yet sophisticated beachfront resort that offers the highest standards of Mediterranean luxury and refinement. Styled after the sprawling palaces of the Minoan kings and Venetian nobles who once ruled Crete, Amirandes Grecotel Exclusive Resort introduces guests to the easy elegance of true European luxe. The architecture’s sleek lines sets off the celebrated beauty of the southern Mediterranean landscape of silver-flecked olive trees, tropical palms, and flowering shrubs against brilliant blue skies and sparkling teal waters. Natural stone terraces with sea views stretching to forever are perfect for whiling away tranquil mornings sipping coffee by the Olympic-sized swimming pool or for lazy sunset cocktails at the lagoon bar where you can flirtatiously dangle your toes in the water.

Creta Aquarium

Recreation

7 mins

Our mission at Creta Aquarium, Aquaworld is quite simply to encourage interest - interest in marine life and reptiles in general, and in those of the local area in particular. We believe that bringing people as close as possible to these wonderful creatures will encourage them to care for the animals themselves and their environment - essential to their wellbeing, of course.

Cretan Historical & Folklore Museum

Museum

Cretan Historical & Folklore Museum presents a comprehensive view of Cretan history from early Christian times to the present day. It was founded in 1953 by the Society of Cretan Historical Studies, which had been established two years earlier. The museum is housed in a two-storey neoclassical building, which was constructed in 1903 on the site of an earlier mansion belonging to the Kalokerinos family. The second building, designed by K. Tsandirakis, was clearly influenced by morphological features of the earlier one, and was later listed as a historical monument. The new museum extension to the west constituted an attempt to combine traditional and modern architecture.
