Pegasus Resort  

On Crete’s south coast in the traditional village of Agia Paraskevi, Pegasus Resort perches above the Libyan Sea. Less than an hour from cosmopolitan Rethymnon and close to Tymbaki, the resort sits near Ligres, Triopetra and Katsouni beaches.

Low-rise resort built in 2006 with rooms that open onto balconies or terraces overlooking the sea. Rooms include a bedroom with sitting area and sofa bed, fridge and private bathroom. The vibe is relaxed and local — simple, comfortable and family-friendly.

Dip in the fresh-water pool or splash in the children’s pool, then unwind in the Jacuzzi. There’s an outdoor pool, sun beds and umbrellas (beach and shore beds may carry a charge), a barbecue area and a massage room. Tour desk and parking on site — wake up to Libyan Sea breezes and step straight toward sandy/shingle beach options nearby.

Wi‑Fi internet access available and a front desk with extended reception hours.

Small tavern and on-site bar serve local cuisine and hearty Greek flavors. The restaurant and tavern are handy for laid-back meals after a day exploring nearby villages and beaches.
