Location

The Maya Beach, now managed by the Enorme hotel chain, impresses with its simple design and modern concept, exclusively for adults aged 16 and over.
In addition to the magnificent view over the Bay of Gouves, its proximity to the town offers the opportunity to discover local restaurants, bars, and shops during a stroll (approx. 500 m). Heraklion Airport is 18 km away.

Facilities

The modern "Boho" ambiance makes this manageable complex with 70 rooms a truly special holiday destination. Besides ample relaxation, partly accompanied by DJ music, the food selection will make your heart beat faster. With everything from Super Bowls to Bao Buns and Sushi, there's something for everyone. You'll be welcomed in the lobby with a 24-hour reception; a TV room is also part of the facilities. Wi-Fi is included in all public areas. Outdoors, comfortable loungers and gazebos around the pool ensure plenty of space to relax. The outdoor fitness area invites you to work out. The beach bar serves refreshments and cocktails from 10 AM to 1 AM, with light snacks available until 5:30 PM. The sushi bar is open from 12 PM to 5:30 PM. There is also a shisha bar.
