You couldn’t be much closer to the sand-and-pebble shoreline if you tried. Giannoulis Grand Bay Beach Resort specialises in unbeatable sea views, with a range of rooms and suites showing them off. The bright airiness of the outdoors tumbles all the way from the two sun-kissed pools to the three local and international restaurants. Make the most of All Inclusive or All Inclusive Plus at mealtimes, but save time for spa treatments, on-site sports and roaming around the traditional Cretan fishing village of Kolymbari.
