It is one of the most magical places on Earth where even two weeks on the island is not enough. So many places and beaches to explore as well as robust nightlife in certain parts of the island such as Elounda. The exclusive accommodation is primarily situated in Elounda and Mirabello but also in parts of Chania and Agios Nikolaos.
