Family-owned and locally staffed, Creta Maris is an all-inclusive resort offering an unlimited variety of facilities, activities, and experiences for couples, families, exclusive holiday seekers, and celebration travelers, delivered with intuitive Cretan generosity and sincerity. All rooted in a regenerative travel philosophy, thoughtfully designed for travelers who value sustainability without compromising high-end quality.
The resort is located just 25km from Heraklion airport, in the lively town of Hersonissos, perfectly placed for sandy beaches, towering mountains, antiquities, and a vibrant urban scene. Reminiscent of a Cretan village, with cobbled lanes, flagstone squares, and lush gardens brimming with fragrant flowers and herbs, Creta Maris is a Greek island in miniature.
With an on-site blue flag beach, 15 swimming pools (including 5 kids’ pools), a waterpark and kids club, 7 restaurants, 5 snack points and 10 bars, one of the largest open-air
cinemas in Europe, a spa, an organic farm, a variety of 679 rooms, suites and one private pool villa, and a wealth of facilities, activities and entertainment, Creta Maris is more than an award winning, five-star resort. It is a destination in itself.
A pioneer of responsible tourism since opening in 1975, Creta Maris championed sustainability long before it became fashionable. Apart from the resort’s own organic and sustainable production, all suppliers are being educated in the importance of sustainability. A commitment to caring for the environment, investing in the local community, and preserving Greece’s cultural heritage are deeply rooted in the Creta Maris ethos.
