Unveiling Grecotel’s Hellenic hideaways

 

Mykonos Blu Grecotel Boutique Resort, Mykonos

A seriously luxurious resort with sensational views, this boutique offering overlooks the famous Blue Flag-awarded Psarou Beach and has steps down to its own stretch of private sand with loungers and waiter service. Its bungalows and suites, apartments, and villas are all in whitewashed low-rise stone bungalows resembling typical Cyclades dwellings and have dazzling white and nautical blue décor.

 

Eating is a highlight here: think farmhouse-style Cretan scramble with vine-ripened tomatoes and oregano fresh from the resort’s kitchen garden or poached eggs with truffle oil and artichoke purée – and that’s just at breakfast! You can also join classes in regional cuisine and sample authentic local restaurants within walking distance of the resort.

 

Caramel Grecotel Boutique Resort, Crete

On a beach providing a home to Caretta caretta turtles, this boutique retreat of suites and villas with spa-inspired bathrooms is perfect for those looking for escape and serenity. Oozing retro glamour, its flexible options sleep up to nine – ideal for multigenerational holidays – and come with hand-made floor tiles, designer fabrics, and a stylish mix of antique and modern furniture.

This is a family-friendly resort where children up to 12 years old can stay for free, with kids’ and teen clubs offering plenty of entertainment, such as eco-themed days and the likes of Greek dancing. There’s also a water sports centre and a nearby diving school, and kids can even try being a farmer for a day at Grecotel’s own Agreco Farm, showcasing centuries-old farming methods. 

There are lots of other activities to explore at the resort, in the immediate surroundings, and elsewhere on this history-drenched island, from boat safaris and horse riding to exploring the lively capital Heraklion and delving into the history of the iconic Minoan Palace of Knossos.

 

Amirandes Grecotel Boutique Resort, Crete

Traditional and glamorous, centred on a lovely lagoon pool, this beachfront hotel was styled after the palaces of the Minoan kings and Venetian nobles who once ruled Crete. The Elixir Alchemy spa lures those who love to be pampered, while families come for its impressive childcare and child-friendly suites and villas, many with private pools.

 

There’s a great focus on atmospheric dining here, whether that’s beachside by the light of braziers, on a ‘floating’ wooden deck above the pool and beneath the stars, or even surrounded by original Picasso tiles at Minotaur restaurant. Menus rely heavily on organic produce from the resort’s Agreco Farm.
