When you travel as a couple in Chania and Crete, the quality of your romantic holiday depends on the level of services of your adults only hotel.

If you take a look in the internet, or in travel agency brochures, you will expect to find numerous adults only hotels in Crete and Chania – but is it really so? Well, the truth is that there are a lot of hotels that claim to (also) be for adults only, but in fact there are very few hotels that are specialized in couples doing adults only holidays.
“Adults only” hotels in Crete that are part of hotels for families

The child-friendly mentality of – especially – the older Cretan people has influenced the family-friendly type of hospitality offered in the vast majority of the hotels in Chania and Crete. And this is something that very few – and selected – hotels have managed to escape from.

As a result, when you see the advertisement of an “adults only” hotel in Crete, many times this doesn’t have to do with the hotel being exclusively for adults.

Unfortunately, most times than not, an “adults only” hotel in Crete is an ordinary family hotel with just some suites catering to adult only travellers. You should be warned when reading something like “ideal for both couples and families” in the hotel’s advertisement.

When staying in this kind of adults only hotel in Crete, or Chania specifically, you will most possibly have to deal with the following things during your romantic holidays:

– The (lots of) kids swimming all around in the hotel pool at noon
– The (lots of) families with kids eating in the hotel’s restaurant at afternoon (and the accompanying noise)
– The cry of the small kid of the family next door at night

But is this your ideal child-free holiday? Or would you prefer a really adults-only hotel environment?

“Adults only” hotels in Crete without many amenities

Another type of “adults only” hotel is the one that just cannot provide the level of service a demanding couple like you would like to have during their holidays.

It is a fact that Chania and Crete in general, have a great number of hotels. But few of them have the amenities and facilities you would expect from your exclusively adults-only hotel.

This has to do with the low star rating of most hotels in Chania and Crete. And from the relatively few 4* and 5* luxury hotels, just a handful have the expertise to cater to couples in the best way possible.

Thalassa Beach adults only resort is a 4* hotel, with a 5* adults-only hotel services. You will find this yourself to be true, when you relax in our big and child-free pool, dine at our exclusively for adults “Ouzaki” beach tavern or “Eleon” a la carte restaurant, spoil yourself and your significant other in the Jacuzzi,  or even better the spa, and indulge in anything between yoga classes on the beach and tango nights.

After all, why do you have to go through all the hustle and bustle of staying in a family hotel? If you travel with your significant other, you should demand nothing less than the real adults only hotel in Chania, Crete. This summer, we will make sure everything is in place to enjoy a magical adults only holiday in Thalassa Beach Resort.
