The hotel is situated 32 km east of Heraklion airport between Malia and Stalida. Just 200 m from the entrance is one of Crete's most beautiful beaches. There is a bus station 150 m from the hotel, where there are buses going to Heraklion and Agios Nikolaos. Malia Town is 1 km away, Hersonissos is 8 km away, Heraklion is 35 km away and Agios Nikolaos is 25 km from the hotel. The hotel consists of a main building and 6 bungalow buildings spread throughout the lush gardens, and has 134 rooms altogether. The main building features a friendly reception area, an elegant lobby, a dining room with a veranda overlooking the pool and a main bar. In addition, there are 2 lifts, and a free parking lot for guests, along with a children's playground and a small supermarket. Guests can choose between a room in the main building or a bungalow. In the main building guests can enjoy the magnificent view of the pool and the Mediterranean sea, whereas in the bungalows guests are able to take advantage of the privacy, the peacefulness and the traditional architecture. All rooms (22-25m² in size) have been recently renovated and tastefully decorated, and include a WC/bath, balcony or terrace, satellite TV-radio (18 channels), individual air conditioning, hairdryer, direct dial telephone, telephone in the bathroom, fridge and safe deposit box.
