Crete Golf Club in Chersonisos 700 14, open June–September.
Established in 2000, Crete Golf Club transformed a sprawling Mediterranean landscape into one of Greece's premier golf destinations, later expanding to accommodate destination weddings.
The property combines 18 holes of championship golf with modern hotel facilities, offering couples a sophisticated Cretan retreat.
Located in Chersonisos at 700 meters elevation, the venue provides panoramic views across the island while maintaining the serene character of its golf course heritage.
I enjoyed a fantastic week of golf as part of a group holiday. The course was challenging but enjoyable and the views of the mountains and the sea in the distance enhanced the experience. The rooms were great and most importantly, extremely comfy beds. Staff very obliging. Would definitely return.
