Location

Set in Agios Nikolaos, the hotel enjoys a direct position by the sea with a beach close at hand for unhurried days by the water. Sun loungers and parasols are offered on the beach subject to availability, and a beach bar brings a relaxed rhythm to the shoreline setting. The immediate surroundings suit a classic Cretan escape, where the coast becomes the natural focus from morning through to sunset.

Facilities

Minos Beach art hotel blends an eco-friendly outlook with an easy, contemporary resort feel, supported by a 24-hour reception, multilingual staff and a welcoming lobby with luggage storage. Days unfold around a freshwater outdoor pool with sun terrace and terrace spaces, while WiFi and parking keep practicalities simple. A library, TV room, shops and a tour desk add gentle variety, with car hire also arranged. The atmosphere remains non-smoking throughout, with services such as laundry, babysitting and transfers offered on request for a fee.

Rooms

Across 129 rooms, accommodation ranges from rooms, suites and bungalows to standout villas, with options oriented to sea, seafront, waterfront and nature views. Each room features air conditioning, satellite TV, WiFi and a safe, alongside a minibar for a fee. Sleeping arrangements include a double bed and a king-size bed. A kitchenette is included with tea and coffee making facilities. Bathrooms are finished with toiletries, a hairdryer, a magnifying mirror and a towel selection, and outdoor space comes as a terrace.

Sports and Entertainment

Wellbeing and activity are woven into the stay with a gym for everyday training and tennis offered for a fee. On the water, the setting lends itself to sailing, snorkelling, water skiing and other water sports, all offered for a fee. For slower moments, a spa and massage treatments are available for a fee, bringing a restorative counterpoint to sunlit days by the sea.

Meals

Dining is centred on three restaurants, spanning Mediterranean and Greek flavours, with Bacchus combining à la carte choice with buffet service. A café called Adeste adds an easy daytime pause, while three bars and a selection of lounge bars create a sociable backdrop from poolside to open-air evenings. Breakfast is served with early-riser and late-riser options, with lunch, dinner and snacks also offered, alongside alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. Board arrangements include B & B and half board, and room service is available for a fee.

Payment options

Payments are accepted by physical credit cards including American Express, Diners, MasterCard and Visa.
