The largest of the Greek Islands, Crete is lauded for its stretches of beaches and vibrant local culture, blending the Greek way of life with influences from nearby Italy and more far flung North Africa. It’s a civilisation that began in 2000 BC, and is even thought to be the birthplace of Zeus. In modern times, the island has become more known for its tourism trade than Gods, although the slight sense of otherworldliness can still be experienced in the surviving Venetian fortresses and many hidden beaches. Today, Crete is a must-visit for jetsetters chasing the sun and visitors who enjoy the privacy and shelter of its famed cliffside resorts.
The breathtaking Acro Suites is the ultimate slice of bohemian luxury on the island of Crete. Offering unparalleled views of the seascape below, Acro Suites recently played host to the cast of Destination MAXIM 2022. Located at Pelagia, the property combines modern style with a tranquil atmosphere ideal for those looking to get away, unwind and reconnect.
