Set on a postcard-perfect clifftop overlooking Mononaftis Bay on the Greek island of Crete, ACRO Suites is the ideal spot to unwind, recharge and reconnect, far away from the hubbub of everyday life.

About Crete

The largest and most populous of the Greek islands is home to more than 650,000 people. With some 4,000 years of history that dates back all the way to Minoan times, through the Mycenaean civilisation and the rules of the Romans, to the Arabs, Byzantines, Venetians and Ottomans, Crete is one the most culturally and historically fascinating regions in Greece.

In terms of landscape, there is everything from soaring mountains to sprawling beaches, and plenty of fertile plains, ideal for farming. There are 30 million olive trees in Crete, so olive oil is big business here, along with produce such as wine, cheese, fruit and vegetables—all of which contribute to the rich flavors and multitude of health benefits of Cretan cuisine, famous for its freshness and simplicity.

Where better, then, to build a resort dedicated to relaxation and health than here, on Crete’s rugged northern coast? ACRO Suites is set on a cliffside overlooking the crashing waves and deep blue of the Aegean Sea, just a short drive from Heraklion International Airport and the Port of Heraklion.
