Escape to a charming stone-built sanctuary in western Crete, where Venetian history meets modern luxury amidst fragrant citrus orchards and ancient olive groves - includes breakfast, optional dinner, and more
-
Stone-built serenity: A fairytale atmosphere awaits at Spilia Village Hotel & Villas: a cluster of restored Venetian buildings and an old olive press nestled in a peaceful rural plain. Your hotel was meticulously brought back to life by master craftsmen, blending hewn stone and timber with contemporary comforts to create the feel of a grand manor house.
-
Gastronomic heritage: Dine beneath the impressive stone arches of the hotel’s traditional restaurant, housed in a structure dating back to the Venetian period. Enjoy a menu of mouthwatering Cretan specialties - all prepared with only the freshest regional ingredients. Days will begin with a hearty breakfast, while evenings will end with refreshing sunset cocktails at the poolside bar.
-
Rejuvenating rituals: Spend your afternoons basking in the Mediterranean heat beside the hotel’s sparkling outdoor pool. For those seeking a moment of quiet, the hotel offers a selection of soothing massage and beauty treatments (fees apply). And after a day of exploration, find a peaceful nook in the courtyard to enjoy the scent of citrus blossoms as the evening air cools.
How to get thereThe hotel is approximately a 40-minute drive from Chania International Airport. We’d recommend hiring a car in order to get the most out of the beautiful area.
Good to knowPlease note, some of the villas are located approximately 200 to 400 metres from the main hotel complex.

It is your responsibility to ensure that you and all members of your party are in possession of all necessary travel and health documents, and in compliance with any other immigration/entry requirements before you travel, including whether your passport must be machine readable or which visas/waivers may be required for entry, such as ESTA for USA travel and/or ETIAS for EU travel.

Spilia
The village of Spilia is a historic religious and architectural centre, where you can wander past 14th-century churches or visit the Cave of Saint John the Hermit, just a short walk from your base. For a glimpse into the island’s ancient roots, head to nearby Vouves to stand before a monumental olive tree estimated to be over 3,000 years old.
The coast is never far away; the beach of Kolimbari is just a short drive from the village. For a bucket-list experience, set off on a day trip towards the mesmerising pink sands of Elafonissi or the turquoise waters of Balos Lagoon, both of which are within easy reach of the hotel.
