The owners, Matthew and Kim, are incredibly sweet and welcoming, and they’ve created a truly beautiful hotel. My children absolutely loved it here. The property features two pools and is set in a quiet, picturesque location that’s perfect for relaxing. The accommodations were wonderful—spacious rooms, spotlessly clean, and very comfortable. Breakfast was fantastic and clearly prepared with care. The nearby restaurant options were excellent, offering great variety within easy walking distance. Two beautiful beaches are just a short drive away—both small, peaceful, and never too crowded—which made our days by the sea even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a beautiful experience from start to finish. I loved every moment of my stay and would highly recommend Paradice Luxury Hotel to anyone visiting Crete.

Istron Beach Vacation

Salty sea air and spectacular ocean vistas are some things you can look forward to on your Istron vacation. If you want to save on your trip to Istron, here's a tip — go with one of our Istron vacation packages. Grab one near Voulisma Beach, just 0.2 miles (0.3 km) from the city center and a must-see while here. Alternatively, pick a package that puts you closer to Istro Beach, another gorgeous strip of coast. Whichever you choose, you'll be left with extra dollars in your vacation budget to spend.

Things You Should Know About Istron

  • There's nothing more relaxing than being close to the water. If staying within a short walk of a sunny shore is your idea of a glorious escape, browse through our Istron beach hotels and see what's available.
  • Another popular lodging style is apartments. Check out Villa Angela and Kavousanos Apartments and compare the prices and amenities.
