Location

• Fancy a beach day? The nearest sandy spot is just a 14-minute walk away. And guess what? The hotel's got your back with a FREE shuttle bus ride to the beach, running four times daily. So, you can save that energy for beach volleyball!

• Aelius Hotel & Spa is nearby to family-friendly attractions like CRETAquarium and Dinosauria Park

• Jetting in? Heraklion Airport is a swift 13-minute drive away, and if you're landing at Chania Airport, it's 2 hours 20 minutes away.

Rooms

• Choices, choices! From Double Rooms to swanky Superior Rooms, Deluxe Rooms to Executive Rooms and even rooms with their very own pool, there's something for everyone.

• Sleep is sacred, right? That's why every room is kitted out for the ultimate snooze fest: blackout curtains, and climate control.

• All rooms come with a private balcony or terrace, satellite TV, speedy Wi-Fi, mini fridge, kettle, tea/coffee-making facilities, safe, and those little extras like toiletries and a hairdryer.

• Feeling a bit extra? Opt for the Sensus Experience. Think eco-friendly rooms with smart tech, swim-up access, individual Jacuzzis, and even two-storey Maisonette rooms. Oh, and did we mention the Smart TV and customisable sleep menu (choose your pillows and mattress, fancy!)?

Food & Drink

• Hungry? Head to Erontas Main Restaurant. Whether you're craving a buffet breakfast or themed dinner nights (Italian, Greek, Asian, you name it!), they've got you covered.

• For a touch of luxury, book a table at Kritamos for a Cretan feast (open 6 days a week for breakfast and Cretan dinner).

• Snack attack? Agiazi Pool Snack Bar is your go-to for everything from pizza to ice cream.

• Sensus guests, you're in for a treat! Aura Sensus Pool Bar offers an exclusive menu and top-notch drinks.

• Dress to impress! Dinner calls for smart casual attire. So, gents, leave those sleeveless tees and shorts at home.
