OUR REVIEW

Luxury and character. Intimate areas and sea-front seclusion.
From the distinctive entrance area, reception and lounges, as you turn into St Nicolas Bay, you experience a magical arrival.
St Nicolas Bay is distinctive in its spacious stone and whitewashed buildings, its small clusters of rooms or more individual suites and bungalows. A style that mixes Cretan traditional with contemporary Mediterranean and adds its own unique relaxing pace and method.
Thoughtful design extends to bathrooms with twin washbasin and WC separate from bath or shower. Picture windows bring the sea to you.
Suites with your own private pool are delightful, well-furnished, well equipped and stocked with the eye-pleasing view of the blue sea, the blue sky, the Mirabello gulf.
Service. Service is an art, a beautiful art when practiced at St Nicolas Bay. A most professionally run, truly hospitable and friendly, luxury hotel. Nothing is impossible here, yet you are likely to want very little.
The indoor heated pool is a cushion against early or late season weather fluctuations. A spa offers massage and various wellness, beauty and relaxation or moisturizing treatments for face and body, with a highly trained staff.

IN THE AREA

What's around when you wish to see the sights? Agios Nikolaos itself provides all the shops from clothes and gifts to news, book and paraphernalia shops to cafes, attractive bars above and around the "lake" and harbour to a range of restaurants covering many tastes.
Explore and you can visit villages on the road to Sitia - one of the most scenic coastal roads anywhere. The fine monastery of Toplou beyond Sitia merits a visit....perhaps with a pause in Sitia itself. In the other direction pass through Elounda and carry on to Plaka for fresh fish at the water's edge, with the Pasolini-esque view of Spinalonga island opposite.
