The hotel has welcomed guests for more than 60 years on a small peninsula at the edge of Agios Nikolaos. Whitewashed bungalows and villas are spread through gardens along the water, and some villas have their own freshwater pools. More than 55 works from the G. & A. Mamidakis Foundation collection are placed around the grounds and in a sculpture garden.
There are two small sandy beaches with shallow water, and about two kilometers of coastline to swim from. Dining focuses on Cretan produce, and Adeste Kafenio hosts Cretan music nights in summer. The Ananea Wellness spa offers treatments. From here you can take a boat to Spinalonga, walk the lanes of Agios Nikolaos and Elounda, and drive to the Minoan palace at Knossos or the Lasithi Plateau.
Minos Beach suits couples and families with young children who want calm water and an easy pace. It is a mid-sized resort rather than a small hideaway, and the town is close by. Heraklion airport is about 50 minutes by car. The hotel is seasonal, so check dates before you plan.
Minos Beach Art Hotel is a seafront resort of low bungalows and villas on Mirabello Bay, a short walk from the town of Agios Nikolaos in eastern Crete. It suits couples and families who want a relaxed beach stay with modern art in the gardens.
