Adults-only 5* Crete stay right on the beach
Asterion Suites & Spa, Platanias, Greece
Time-limited





Property details
- Majesty and myth: Named after a mythological king, the five-star Asterion Suites & Spa truly is the stuff of legends. Boasting views of the Aegean and Saint Theodore’s Island, this spectacular adults-only hotel occupies a privileged position along the vast sandy beach of Pyrgos Platanias. While away the hours alongside the glittering outdoor pool or under a parasol on the beach before returning to your beautiful guest room, where earth tones and sleek décor will lull you into further relaxation.
- Cretan concoctions: Crete’s culinary heritage gets a contemporary shake-up at the hotel’s restaurants, where casual-chic dining is infused with warm Greek hospitality and a farm-to-table philosophy. Head to the main buffet restaurant for a varied breakfast offering with rich yoghurts, honey and olive oil, and return at lunch and dinner for tantalising regional and international cuisine. There's also a Cretan à la carte serving up both traditional dishes and innovative modern cuisine. For smoothies, coffees and stylish aperitifs, look no further than the elegant lobby and pool bars.
- Star-aligning spa moments: A trip to the hotel’s sumptuous spa will leave you rejuvenated and restored, with a range of soothing massages, body and facial treatments blending modern therapies and premium cosmetics with traditional techniques and sensuous natural ingredients (fees apply). There’s also a sauna, relaxation room and a state-of-the-art fitness centre.
How to get there
Located near Platanias on Crete’s northern coast, Asterion Suites & Spa is about 40 minutes’ drive from Chania International Airport, or roughly two hours’ drive east of Heraklion Airport in the island’s capital.
Please note that due to its popularity, the hotel recommends reserving dinner at the à la carte restaurant in advance.
