Overview

Mitsis Rinela is a chic, all-inclusive resort which is popular with couples and families. It enjoys a beachfront location, two impressive swimming pools and two separate kids’ pools. The long list of dining options includes a poolside creperie, pizza oven on the beach and a champagne and sushi bar. Kids’ clubs for all ages will keep younger guests entertained, whilst adults visit the spa, fitness centre or enjoy the activities on offer.

Located on Crete’s northern coast, the resort enjoys a fantastic location between Heraklion and Hersonissos. It is located on the sandy, Blue Flag awarded, Kokkini Hani Beach. Nearby, the former fishing village of Kokkini Hani still has a low-key vibe and offers a small selection of restaurants and bars. Further away, approximately eight miles, lively Heraklion has lots to offer. The cafes and bars provide plenty of opportunity to grab a bite to eat or a drink after some shopping or a stroll along the waterfront. Heraklion Airport is seven miles away.

The resort features traditional Cretan architecture, offering 393 rooms. Interiors are decorated in light airy tones with modern touches and beautiful outdoor spaces – which connect you to the stunning surroundings. Superior Double rooms have stylish interiors, open-plan bedrooms, a comfortable sitting area and a luxurious bathroom. Superior Double Sea View Sea Front rooms are located just metres from the sandy beach, while Superior Double Swim Up Sharing Pool rooms enjoy direct access to the sharing swimming pool. Family Suite Private Courtyard accommodation is designed for a comfortable family stay, with a private courtyard and elegant garden. Junior Suite Garden View accommodation is popular with couples. These well-appointed rooms have a spacious bathroom and a private balcony, which overlooks the landscaped gardens.
