Kalathas Beach
9 Sandra Sharp

The beach is kept very clean by the "chair people". Great chairs, great price and a restaurant on site as well. The water is very clean! Awesome for snorkeling around the little island !!

Kolatsos beach II
10 Ren Thompson

This beach is an amazing place to stay. I stayed here for 10 days with the all-inclusive plus package, which I highly recommend upgrading to. The animation team, who organize daily sports activities, are absolutely fantastic. All the staff members are extremely friendly and always ready to assist you. The food is delicious and not monotonous like some other all-inclusive resorts. Lastly, I highly suggest visiting the rooftop restaurant for a lovely evening. I want to express my gratitude to everyone at Kiani!

Marathi Beach
10 Avery Larkspur.

We ventured to this beach amidst the presence of red flags on other shorelines across the island due to rough sea conditions. However, we were pleasantly surprised to discover a serene and tranquil ocean with crystal clear waters and a picturesque sandy beach. The prices were also reasonable, with sunbeds accommodating two individuals for a mere 8€, parking for 4€, and refreshing 0.5L bottled Mythos for 3.1€.

Paralia Kalives
8 Zypheros

This stunning beach boasts an abundance of sunbeds and umbrellas that are readily available at no cost if you indulge in some refreshments at the nearby bars or if you're a guest at one of the hotels. The crystal-clear waters and pristine sandy beach are impeccably maintained, although some sections may have gentle waves while others are perfectly calm. Overall, this beach is an idyllic destination for a relaxing day in the sun.

Stavros Beach
10 Ethan Cruz

This wonderful family-friendly beach, Stavros Beach, proved to be a perfect hideaway from the windy weather during our visit. The natural harbor and the mountain's protection provided a serene environment that allowed us to enjoy the beach without any disturbance. Although the price of €25 for an umbrella and two loungers seemed a bit steep, the beach's organization and the restaurant's drinks and food service made it worthwhile, especially since we had a small child with us. The beach was one of the cleanest we have ever visited during our trip to Crete, with pristine sand and crystal-clear water. It's an ideal spot for families as the waves are minimal, and the few rocks on the water's entry are not enough to require wearing shoes. Overall, we had a great time at Stavros Beach and couldn't help but compare it to other beaches we visited during our stay.

Loutraki Beach
8 Ethan James Parker

This stunning beach boasts crystal clear waters that are sure to take your breath away. For a small fee of 8€, you can enjoy the comfort of two seats while soaking up the sun. And if you start to feel peckish, there's a convenient snackbar nearby. However, if you're hoping to spot some exotic marine life while snorkeling, you may be disappointed as the seabed is primarily composed of sand. Nonetheless, this beach is a must-visit for anyone seeking a serene and picturesque escape.
