Olive Green Hotel

Somewhere between ancient ruins and a warm Cretan breakfast, a city stay starts to feel like something more. Candia Park Village sits on the hillside edge of Mirabello Bay, and the setting speaks for itself. The water moves between deep blue and green, olive groves dot the surrounding hills, and the air carries a faint scent of wild herbs. It is the kind of place that feels genuinely rooted in its landscape.

The resort is built to resemble a traditional Cretan village. Cobbled lanes wind through the grounds, flowers trail over stone walls, and a central square with a clock tower pulls it all together. A traditional kafenio sits at the heart of it, giving the whole place a calm, unhurried feel that is hard to find elsewhere.

A great-value choice for families looking for space and character. A genuinely relaxing option for couples too, particularly in the quieter seafront suites with views across the bay.
