Why Blue Palace is so special...

keyboard_arrow_left

Culture & History

Crete has long been synonymous with culture and history, standing as a timeless testament to ancient grandeur through its rich history. Renowned as the birthplace of the mighty Minoan civilisation, this Mediterranean gem unveils a legacy that dates back millennia. The island's historical narrative, adorned with ancient ruins, Byzantine treasures and Venetian fortresses, unfolds seamlessly against a backdrop of sun-kissed landscapes. Wander through the remnants of the legendary Knossos Palace, where the labyrinthine corridors are the home of tales of King Minos and the mythical Minotaur, immerse yourself in the island’s history on a trip to the Heraklion Archaeological Museum or discover old town quarters and ancient fortresses as you explore the charming streets of cities like Chania and Rethymnon, where Venetian and Ottoman influences are palpable.

Hotel Experiences

Located between the small fishing village of Plaka and the chic town of Elounda, Blue Palace is perfectly placed for a multitude of experiences and excursions that will make your luxury retreat truly unforgettable. From embarking on a picture-perfect cruise around Spinalonga at sunset or wine tasting in the organic garden to a once-in-a-lifetime Greek cooking lesson with expert chefs, there is an experience for every taste. Those looking to learn more about Crete can enjoy discovering the island’s best-hidden gems with a ‘Secrets of Crete’ tour, nature lovers can spend time at the hotel’s bee hives where you can learn more about the organic garden and enjoy a mini-harvesting and honey tasting session or for those in search of something special, hop into the hotel's vintage Mercedes or Cadillac and take to the roads on a mini road trip through the traditional villages of Crete.
