Crete, Greece🇬🇷

Here are some photos from our vacation on the island of Crete, Greece. 🌊🌅🐚

We stayed for 4 nights at Domes of Elounda and another 4 nights at Blue Palace Elounda. Both hotels are absolutely stunning and exude luxury, but my personal favorite was definitely Blue Palace Elounda.

This hotel is simply designed in such a way that makes you feel like you've stepped into the paradise of the Greek gods. Around the pool, you'll find tall, majestic columns made from a special kind of stone, which adds a touch of elegance and grandeur. Every room has its own private pool, and the hotel boasts a variety of restaurants, including a Japanese one.

I don't often dine out, but when I do, it's almost always Japanese or Italian cuisine-I'm a huge fan of seafood prepared the Japanese way.

As for the sea-Crete's waters are a beautiful shade of blue and incredibly clear. However, be prepared for frequent winds and waves, as they are quite common here.

We visited the town once, but honestly, there wasn't too much to see. It's filled mostly with touristy restaurants, fur boutiques, and souvenir shops.

The biggest joy for me was simply finding some shade by the sea and letting the wind carry away my thoughts. This place truly has a special vibe-one that shifts your perspective and brings peace to your mind.

If you're looking for a quiet escape or a place to meditate without noise or crowds, this might be the perfect spot for you.
My personal recommendation is to come here in the second half of September-the temperature is ideal, the crowds are gone, and it becomes a true paradise for meditation and relaxation.

I came here just as a tourist, but honestly-if you're looking for a romantic place to take your partner for a honeymoon, this place might be the ideal choice.😀
