Elia Meronas  

Tucked in Meronas (historic Amari), minutes from the town center and wrapped in Cretan countryside. Close enough for day trips to Heraklion Port and Port of Souda, and a drive from Psiloritis National Park (≈13 miles) and the Museum of Ancient Eleftherna (≈12 miles). A family-friendly rural retreat with easy access to regional sights; Heraklion International Airport is about 53 miles away.

A newly built complex that blends into the natural landscape and serves up classic Cretan hospitality. Units feature air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, private bathrooms with showers and hair dryers, plus balconies or patios with mountain and garden views and outdoor dining areas. Expect a relaxed vibe, modern rooms, and a pool with a view for sunset hangs.

Pool with a view, garden and terrace, bar and shared lounge, plus free private parking. On-site services include shuttle arrangements, bicycle and car rental, and guest laundry/dry-cleaning and ironing. Wake up to mountain-breeze mornings on your patio and step out for a stroll around the neighbourhood.

Free Wi‑Fi throughout the property and on-site staff who can arrange shuttle or transport—useful for guests juggling work and exploration.

Start with buffet or à la carte breakfasts featuring fresh pastries, pancakes and fruit. The on-site family-friendly restaurant serves dinner, cocktails and high tea, with a bar for relaxed evening drinks.
