Ideally situated between the charming village of Elounda and the small town of Agios Nikolaos, Minos Palace overlooks the spectacular Mirabello Bay in Eastern Crete. The resort boasts its own Blue Flag-awarded private sandy beach with crystal-clear waters, perfect for relaxation and swimming.

The surrounding area invites exploration, offering scenic walks through quaint mountain villages and access to hidden beaches. For those eager to venture further, the hotel provides both bicycles and electric bikes.



When to go
