Crete. As well as the magnificent beaches and warm seas, the size and physical variety of the island of Crete invites exploration, and Primavera Beach Hotel Studios & Apartments, located at Dimokratias 145, Malia, Heraklion, 70007, Greece, is the ideal staring point. Uniquely among Greek islands, Crete’s mountainous spine creates a sense of spaciousness, a life distinct from sea and sand.

With so much to see, with dolphins to watch, shaded squares to paint, olive trees and wild orchids, Minoan remains and sweeping beaches, no wonder Crete holidays and Primavera Beach Hotel Studios & Apartments are revisited so often.
