Lyttos Mare in Anissaras 700 14.
Lyttos Mare sits directly on the Cretan coastline near Anissaras, where whitewashed architecture meets the Aegean Sea's crystalline waters.
The hotel's beachfront position offers unobstructed Mediterranean views and direct sand access, creating a natural amphitheater for ceremonies at water's edge.
Stone terraces cascade toward the shoreline, framing both intimate gatherings and larger celebrations against the backdrop of open horizon.
The hotel is nice. We had 9 days there and the stay was good. The room is a bit old, but still clean. Although I found some ants inside. The decoration could be a bit better. The foods are fantastic. The bar is also awesome. The pool with sea water is amazing. The staff is friendly. Only it is a bit far away from the airport as well as the bus station outside.
