Grand Bay Beach Resort, Greek Islands

• Idyllic beachfront setting: Where a ruggedly beautiful landscape of mountains and olive groves meets the Aegean Sea, you’ll find Grand Bay Beach Resort, where the only thing between you and the beach is the main pool. If getting splashed isn’t your style, rest assured that this sophisticated property is strictly for grown-ups.

• Highly recommended: Grand Bay Beach Resort comes highly recommended on TripAdvisor, and the dining facilities are equally as impressive. Your all-inclusive board covers glorious buffet-style meals at the main restaurant, with beers and snacks ranging from homemade pizza to sandwiches. During the evening, you can also head to the Azzuro Restaurant for à la carte Cretan specialities and dreamy sea views. 

• Rest and relaxation: If you're looking to up the relaxation and wellness stakes, head to the hotel's small spa area, where you'll be enveloped in a cocoon of bliss and rejuvenation. You'll find a Jacuzzi room alongside a selection of massages and treatments for an indulgent touch. When you're not unwinding, make sure to get out into the region's stunning surrounding landscapes too – think historic monasteries, olive oil farms, wineries, and cycling adventures.
