Amirandes, A Grecotel Resort to Live
Inspired by the grandeur of the palaces of the Minoan kings, Amirandes, A Grecotel Resort to Live, distinguishes itself through striking architecture, warm and attentive hospitality, sweeping sea views and exceptional, unforgettable cuisine.
The Hotel
Centred around shimmering lagoons that form the heart of the resort, accommodations, beaches, pools and restaurants flow harmoniously through the grounds, creating the feel of a luxurious, contemporary village by the sea. The hotel offers 204 beautifully appointed rooms, bungalows, suites and villas, available on a breakfast-only, half-board or all-inclusive basis. Designed in a soothing, neutral palette with bright, airy interiors, each space exudes understated elegance. Select accommodations further elevate the experience with private pools, personal gyms, fully equipped kitchens, and direct access to the beach.
Amenities
With a choice of eight distinctive venues (6 restaurants and 2 bars), guests are invited on a culinary journey as diverse as the setting itself. Each menu celebrates exceptional flavours – from organic Cretan farm-to-table fare and refined Mediterranean creations to exquisite Asian specialities and the freshest seafood. Whether dining beside the beach or at a vibrant pool bar, at the rustic charm of the Argreco farm, in a traditional courtyard, or surrounded by shimmering infinity pools and soft white sands, every setting offers a unique atmosphere designed to elevate the experience. By night, the Labyrinth Lagoon Bar offers views of the sea from sunken lounges, to the sound of live music, while the Sunset Lounge is the ideal spot to enjoy a cocktail or two.
For those seeking deep relaxation and the chance to truly unwind, the 440m² Elixir Alchemy Spa is a haven of wellbeing. This serene retreat features an indoor pool, fully equipped fitness studio, beauty salon, sauna and tranquil treatment rooms, where skilled therapists curate an extensive menu of restorative massages, revitalising facials and bespoke therapies. For more active pursuits, guests can join yoga sessions or take advantage of a wide range of sports, including padel, tennis, beach volleyball, watersports and e-biking, among many others. While adults indulge in well-earned relaxation, younger guests are entertained at the Grecoland kids’ club and through engaging Grecoteens activities. By day, two sheltered coves with fine golden sand invite leisurely seaside moments, complemented by an Olympic-size seawater pool and a separate freshwater pool for children. As evening sets in, the atmosphere comes alive with live music, dance shows and open-air cinema experiences under the stars.
