Irida Hotel
Boutique Beach Area Hotel
Our Rating
9.6
Irida Mindful Living Hotel, a family-run boutique retreat on a hill overlooking Agia Pelagia bay in Crete, welcomes guests with eco-friendly design and personalized service, just 350 meters from the beach.
The newly renovated rooms and suites in the main building feature natural materials for a serene stay, while the Hilltop Suites, surrounded by olive and pine trees, include furnished terraces leading to private swimming pools. Across the road in Irida Gardens, four studios and one maisonette offer a more secluded feel, with full access to the hotel's amenities. Each accommodation blends comfort with the island's tranquil essence, providing airy spaces and garden views.
Dining at Bostani, the à la carte restaurant, highlights fresh Cretan dishes in a relaxed setting, while the Lounge Bar, Pool Bar, and Wine Bar serve crafted cocktails and local wines amid olive groves. Two swimming pools, including a children's pool, invite refreshing dips, and the sun terrace provides shaded loungers for quiet afternoons. The outdoor yoga area and callisthenics gym promote wellness, complemented by massage treatments and e-bike rentals for gentle explorations. Evening entertainment, from live music to cultural shows, adds a touch of warmth under Cretan stars.
Perched 24 kilometers from Heraklion and the Palace of Knossos, Irida Mindful Living Hotel offers easy access to Agia Pelagia's water sports, taverns, and shops, blending seclusion with the island's vibrant coastal life.
