Peninsula Resort & Spa in Agia Pelagia 715 00.

Peninsula Resort & Spa stands apart with its clifftop location directly above Agia Pelagia's turquoise waters, offering ceremonies where guests can exchange vows with unobstructed Cretan Sea views.

The resort's private beach access and full-service spa create a comprehensive wellness experience uncommon among Greek destination venues.

We just got back from an amazing week at Peninsula Resort & Spa, and it exceeded all expectations. First, the food is genuinely fantastic. Seriously—high-quality, fresh Cretan and international options every day. It’s the best all-inclusive food we’ve ever had. The setting on the peninsula is breathtaking. Having a choice of pools plus a private beach, meant we were never bored. The views from the saltwater pool are incredible. It’s perfect for families. The kids loved the waterslides and the activities, and the fact that they were happy meant we could actually relax. The staff, from reception to the restaurant, are the kindest, most helpful people. We were looking for sun, sea, and great food, and this place delivered 100%. Highly recommend!
