Alexandra Beach Hotel

Alexandra Beach Hotel is a mid-range beachside hotel on the Kissamou-Chanion Road in Agia Marina, the busiest holiday strip west of Chania town, on the Greek island of Crete. Agia Marina has a long sandy beach lined with tavernas, bars and shops, and it faces the small island of Agioi Theodoroi (Thodorou), which is a protected area for the Cretan wild goat. The Old Town and Venetian harbour of Chania are about 8 to 10 kilometres to the east, reachable by frequent local buses along the coastal road or by a short taxi ride. Chania International Airport is roughly 25 to 30 minutes away by road. The hotel is placed in the mid-range category, with indicative high-season rates of EUR 85 to 170 per night. Rooms are offered as doubles, family rooms and suites, and the listed amenities include a swimming pool, beach access, a restaurant, a bar, air conditioning and Wi-Fi. This combination suits families and groups who want sea and pool facilities with easy access to dining and nightlife. The restaurant and bar serve guests on site, while the surrounding Agia Marina strip offers a wide choice of tavernas serving grilled meat, fresh fish, Greek salads and Cretan sweets, plus cafes and late-night bars. Water sports such as jet-skiing, pedalos and banana boats are available along the beach in season. The service style is that of a holiday hotel, with a focus on families and seasonal visitors, and staff can usually arrange car hire and excursions to Balos, Elafonisi, Samaria Gorge and the Old Town. Because Agia Marina is a lively resort area, noise from bars can be audible at night in peak season, and guests who prefer quiet may wish to ask for a room away from the main road. Room details, meal plans and the opening season should be confirmed with the hotel before booking.
