Crunchy barley rusks and creamy, salty feta cheese. Here, it’s not just a tomato—it’s a tomato grown to peak ripeness under the Cretan sun. Sustainable, local, and organic—whether you’re tucking into roasted lamb on a bed of greens, or squid with feta sauce, each meal is a special one to remember.
Whether you’re a young family seeking quality time and adventure, a couple celebrating your fiftieth wedding anniversary, or on holiday with your precious self, Creta Maris Resort is the place to be.
