Rapaniana Kolymbari, Kolymbari 730 06, Greece

It’s no wonder that Crete is the stuff of myths and legends, with mountains looming over sun-drenched beaches, modern hotels perched near ancient hilltop villages and international golf courses nestled next to ancient olive groves. Crete offers bite-sized holiday essentials in one place – relaxation, culture and beautiful scenery.

Giannoulis Cavo Spada Luxury Sports & Leisure Resort & Spa is perched on the edge of Kolymbari, a picturesque fishing village with little tavernas, shops and an uncluttered stretch of beach. For guests hoping to venture further afield, the beautiful city of Chania is 23 kilometres away. Boasting a rugged coastline, a mountain backdrop and spectacular sea views, this is not one to miss.
