Ascend to the rooftop bar for a breathtaking panorama of the glistening Mediterranean; here, the sound of waves mingles with the clink of glasses as sun sets on another perfect day. Culinary experiences abound, with 'AVOCADO', a unique plant-based restaurant celebrating the freshness of Cretan cuisine, and a main restaurant that delights with an extensive buffet of Greek specialties and daily specials - truly, a gastronomic journey awaits at every meal.

This vibrant locality offers easy access to historical landmarks including the Venetian city walls and the captivating Museum of Cretan Ethnology. For a touch of spirituality, the monastery of Moni Palianis beckons just 6.5 km away, while those craving local culture should visit the Vasiliki Agios Markos Municipal Art Gallery. Public transportation is convenient, with regular buses connecting Amoudara to the pulsating heart of Heraklion, ensuring an effortless exploration of Crete's rich heritage.

“Apollonia Beach Resort & Spa, while catering well to families with its array of pools and direct beach access, seems to offer a mixed experience. The presence of multiple dining options, including a dedicated vegan restaurant, is a definite plus, yet some accounts suggest inconsistencies in service and quality. Ultimately, it appears best suited for those prioritizing convenience and on-site amenities over refined luxury.”
