"The set-up at this Cretan hotel lends itself to a meaningful baby’s first holiday. Sweeping along a stretch of coastline on the island’s north, the grounds are set up to resemble a honey-hued Cretan village, all appealingly connected with stroller-friendly ramps. You can even wheel little ones down to the beach, where a man-made cove has created gentle paddling conditions, and drinks and nibbles can be delivered direct to lounge chairs. Suites cater perfectly to tiny demanding guests, with tubs in the bathroom, a separate lounge area that can be closed off from the bedroom, and an outdoor terrace so parents can sunbathe while kids nap. For bigger youngsters, two-story family suites with private pools are also available. The spa here welcomes all guests, big and small. There’s a cute kid-friendly spa menu, a salt cave for adults, plus you can book a family session in the thalassotherapy pool.
