Specialising in ‘watery breaks’ is the Atlantica Akti Zeus Hotel, thanks to its pools, waterpark and beachside location. Located on Crete’s northern coast in a peaceful setting it is just a 15-minute drive to the centre of Heraklion city. The main draw of the local area is its beach and it is a great place to try out different watersports. Heraklion Airport is a 40-minute coach transfer to the hotel.
Highlights
Close to the beach are the hotel’s two main swimming pools and a children’s paddling area. The waterpark has a great range of slides for all the family. Some of which have height restrictions. Younger children have a splash area to play in.
