Aloe Boutique Hotel & Suites

Aloe Boutique Hotel & Suites is a boutique hotel in Almyrida, a fishing village with a long sandy beach on the Apokoronas coast of the Chania region, on the Greek island of Crete. Almyrida lies on the Bay of Souda's eastern approach, roughly 25 kilometres east of Chania town and about 10 kilometres from the village of Kalyves, and its beach is shallow and sheltered, which makes it popular with families. Chania's Old Town and Venetian harbour are around 30 minutes by road, and Chania International Airport is about 35 minutes away. The villages of Vamos and Gavalohori in the Apokoronas hills, and the Georgioupoli lake and beach, are within a short drive. Greek listings place the property in the luxury tier, with indicative high-season rates of EUR 170 to 350 per night. Accommodation is offered as double rooms, junior suites and suites, and the listed amenities include air conditioning, Wi-Fi and breakfast, with restaurants and bars nearby in the village. No pool or spa is listed in the available information, so the main leisure feature is the village beach and its surroundings. Dining is easy to arrange on foot, since Almyrida's seafront is lined with tavernas serving grilled fish, octopus, Cretan salads and local raki, usually at friendly village prices, and breakfast is available at the hotel. Service is that of a small boutique property, with staff who can arrange car hire and excursions to the Old Town, Rethymno, Elafonisi, Balos and the Samaria Gorge, as well as to local wineries and olive oil producers in Apokoronas. Almyrida is a quieter alternative to the busy resort strips west of Chania, with a relaxed pace and a small number of bars. Because bus services are limited in the evening, guests who plan to visit Chania often should consider a hire car. Room details and the opening season should be confirmed before booking.
