Ikaros Beach, Luxury Resort & Spa - Adults Only is situated along the northern coast of Crete, featuring architecture inspired by an authentic Cretan village. The 5-star property includes elegantly furnished bungalows and suites with garden or sea views, private pools, and furnished verandas. Dining options include En Lefko, offering Italian-American cuisine with seafront views, and Veranda, an à la carte restaurant and wine bar open until midnight. The Aura Spa provides treatments like traditional Cretan massage using hot olive oil and orange oil, alongside access to a fitness center, sauna, and steam bath. Nearby landmarks include Malia Beach (1 km) and Lychnostatis Open Air Museum (4 km). Nikos Kazantzakis International Airport is 35 km away.

Pros

Elegantly decorated suites include soundproofing, free Wi-Fi, and balconies with direct sea views.

Four landscaped outdoor pools overlook a long sandy beach.
