Hotels in Greece with Swimming Pool
Many of Simpson Travel's hotels in Greece feature their own swimming pool and some of our luxury hotels also their own beaches and facilities including water sports, scuba diving and water-skiing, as well as spa, Jacuzzis and health clubs. These hotels include the St Nicolas Bay Hotel, Crete and the Emelisse Art Hotel, Cephalonia. Perantzada 1811 Art Hotel, Ithaca is a romantic and stylish boutique hotel in a raised position, just behind the waterfront amongst other quiet, old houses. The hotel basks in peace despite the proximity of Vathy's harbour and one of the joys of the Peranzatha is floating in the newly added infinity pool and gazing out from the relaxing terraces at the boats crossing the bay. With a combination of pool, breathtaking location and panoramic views, fabulous service and access to some finest beaches in Europe, our hotels in Greece will provide the ideal base for a relaxing holiday.
Spa Hotels in Greece
Simpson Travel is delighted to feature an exclusive selection of elegant boutique as well as luxury hotels in Greece with spas, fitness and beauty centres providing treatments using local Greek essential oils, massage therapy and holistic treatments each with their own signature style. Our intimate country guesthouse in western Crete, Elia, offers holistic treatments for the ultimate relaxation, as well as Turkish baths, aromatherapy massages, or use of a Jacuzzi with rose petals and jasmine oil. At the beautiful Blue Palace Resort & Spa Hotel near Elounda, Crete boasts a state-of-the-art spa, which was awarded the "Top Spa in Greece" accolade last year.
Greece Hotels - Family Friendly Hotels
Greece is a favourite holiday destination for families. Many beaches in the Greek Islands offer safe, shallow water for swimming and lovely soft sand for sand castles; Elafonisi and Agios Apostoli in Crete and Gerekas in Zakynthos to name but a few... Many of our hotels in Greece are ideal for families travelling with children - whether offering a children's playground and kid's pool, such as the Paxos Club Hotel, or set right on the beach such as the Ammos Hotel, or offering baby-sitting and children's clubs such as the St Nicolas Bay and Istron Bay Hotels, all located in Crete.
Greece Hotels Off the Beaten Track
Several of Simpson Travel's alluring hotels in Greece, set ‘off the beaten track' that make up our fabulous portfolio are highlighted below; Villa Kynthia, a beautifully restored house, now a 5 bedroom hotel. Villa Kynthia is one of the lovely old houses in Panormo, western Crete. Situated up a very quiet village lane, the house has been painstakingly restored and beautifully converted into a small charming hotel. Plakias Bay Hotel, a small, friendly beachside hotel in southern Crete. At the furthest and quietest end of Plakias beach, the hillside rises steeply from the wide curve of sand. In this secluded and protected spot stands a small hotel, which is somehow redolent of old fashioned beach holidays. Belvedere Hotel, a new luxury 4 star hotel close to Gerakas beach, Zakynthos - a breeding place for ‘Loggerhead Turtles'. The Vassilikos peninsula, with its unspoiled green countryside, is arguably the most beautiful area of Zakynthos and this newly built hotel has a peaceful position between the island's two best beaches: Gerakas and Porto Roma.
Hotels of Character in Greece
We are delighted to feature a number of charming hotels with exceptional character amongst our portfolio of hotels in Greece. Perantzada 1811 Art Hotel, the sister hotel of the luxurious Emelisse Art Hotel, located in Ithaca is a romantic and stylish boutique hotel. Already built when Lord Byron took his morning swims in the bay in front of the hotel, the Perantzada is a surprising gem. Undeniably romantic, this pale blue, neo-classical house has been restored to provide a unique small hotel. Casa Delfino, there are fewer finer places to take breakfast or a mid-morning coffee than beneath the weeping fig, which overhangs the mosaic-floored courtyard of the Hotel Casa Delfino. This seventeenth century Venetian mansion converted into a hotel of individually-designed suites is set in the old town of Chania. Villa Andromeda, which overlooks the Bay of Chania, Crete has been in the Naxaki family since 1913. Before that it was the German Consulate of an independent Crete and the air of diplomatic grandeur is apparent as soon as you enter this 19th century neo-classical mansion, converted in to a beautiful all-suite hotel.
Gastronomic Hôtel-Restaurants in Greece
Food is the high point of the Emelisse Art Hotel in Cephalonia and is based on fresh ingredients, imaginatively prepared to provide a fusion of Mediterranean cooking. The hotel's main dining room is so close to the sea. There is an excellent wine list and menus range from light meals to three-course dinners. At our 5 star deluxe hotel in Crete, St Nicolas Bay, there are a variety of restaurants which cater for very different tastes, ranging from a kafenion by the beach, to a splendid sea-food buffet dinner overlooking the twinkling lights of Agios Nikolaos.
The Regions of Greece
From the rustic charms of Paxos to the verdant greens of Corfu, the gentle sophistication of Cephalonia, the largely mountainous Ithaca, the spectacular coastline of Zakynthos, to the colours and moods of Crete, never the same from one month to the next, our varying portfolio of hotels in Greece offer something for everyone.
CreteNo island in Greece changes with the seasons quite as Crete does. An extraordinary range of scenery - from gentle, fertile plains to wild, uninhabited gorges - shapes the island's inimitable character and governs daily life. Simpson Travel's portfolio of hotels in Crete offers the visitor a wide range of experiences; sophisticated luxury hotels, beautifully restored traditional hotels, family-friendly seaside hotels, and intimate, boutique hotels offering massages and other holistic treatments in settings of utter tranquillity. Holidays in Crete
PaxosPaxos is an island on which to do nothing much. Somewhere between picking up fresh bread from the bakery, taking out a small boat to find an isolated cove for swimming and snorkelling, or watching magnificent sunsets before strolling down to dinner beside the sea, the island's magic will weave its spell. Simpson Travel's hotel in Paxos offers the visitor a delightful family hotel, within walking distance of the island's main port, Gaios.
CephaloniaThere is something about Fiskardo that calls visitors back time and again. Set on the northern tip of Cephalonia, Fiskardo has abundant charm and has succeeded in becoming one of the more gently sophisticated destinations in the Greek islands, while retaining its quintessential character as an island fishing village. Cephalonia is an island which genuinely has something for everybody and Fiskardo, in particular, is one of the most attractive spots in the Ionian. Simpson Travel's luxury hotel in Cephalonia sits in an incomparable position, with exceptional style, friendly service and breath-taking views.
IthacaAn island where low, pastel-coloured houses follow the curve of a deep harbour between steep, green mountainsides; where small coves are shaded by eucalyptus trees and where a dramatically rocky landscape soars above the very few roads. Simpson Travel's hotels in Ithaca include a romantic and stylish boutique hotel and a comfortable waterfront apartment hotel, both walking distance to the main port of Vathy.
ZakynthosEven amongst the famously green and fertile Ionian Islands, Zakynthos is a gem. The most southerly of the Ionian Islands, it was known in history as The Garden of the Levant and is still loved for its dramatic scenery. Some of the finest beaches are on the Vassilikos peninsula, arguably the most beautiful natural landscape of the island, and where we have selected our hotel, a 4 star luxury hotel.
