The Abaton is a contemporary five star accommodation, located on a stretch of coastline with panoramic sea views, just 2.5 kilometres from Hersonissos resort centre. Rooms are elegant with a sea view, they also have rooms with shared or private pools too. There is a luxury spa and a collection of restaurants offering Greek and international cuisine within the hotel grounds, the food is fabulous. The Abaton is a perfect place for couples wanting a relaxing getaway.

We travelled 50 minutes by coach to Agios Nikolaos, a picturesque resort with nice bars, tavernas and shops. On our return we stopped at Krista Village, a traditional Greek village with old houses and narrow streets on Lassithi Mountains, definitely worth a visit.

Crete has lots to offer for everyone!
