Iberostar Waves Creta Panorama & Mare

Iberostar Waves Creta Panorama & Mare

10/10 Excellent
"Very good and family friendly experience. The staff were friendly and helpful, overall an excellent stay. The only complaint would be that dinner at 2 of the 4 restaurants felt a little like a conveyor belt where the priority seemed to be getting us fed and out as quickly as possible rather than having us enjoy the dining experience. With that said the experience at the other 2 restaurants was excellent."

Frequently asked questions

How much does a beach hotel in Adele cost?
Prices for beach hotels in Adele vary, but you can find a great deal from £102 on Expedia. You're likely to find lower rates if you're travelling during the off-peak season or mid-week. Find the best deals by being flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.
Which area of Adele is best to stay in for beaches?
For beach lovers in Adele, the best area to stay is along the coastal stretch of Adele Beach.

Adele Beach is the primary coastal area of Adele, offering a long expanse of sand and pebble shoreline. It's well-organised with sunbeds and umbrellas available, and the water is generally calm and clear, making it ideal for a relaxing day by the sea. The main road running parallel to the beach hosts a variety of tavernas and cafes directly overlooking the water, meaning you're never far from refreshments.

This area is particularly well-suited for families. The shallow entry into the sea makes it a good spot for children to paddle, and the convenience of having facilities like toilets and snack bars close by adds to a stress-free beach day.
What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Adele?
The most popular time to stay in a beach hotel in Adele is during the summer months, particularly July and August. These months boast consistently warm weather, with average temperatures hovering around 26-29°C, creating ideal conditions for relaxing on the beach and swimming in the Aegean Sea.

During this peak season, the coastal areas of Adele are bustling with activity. It's a wonderful time for families to enjoy the warm waters and vibrant setting, with all beachside amenities and water sports readily available. The extended daylight hours mean more time for beachfront strolls and enjoying sunset views from your hotel balcony.

As another option, June presents a fantastic alternative. The weather is still beautifully warm, with temperatures generally ranging from 24-27°C, great for enjoying the beach without the peak summer crowds.
How can I save on a beach hotel in Adele with Expedia?
One Key™ —Expedia's free travel rewards programme—gives you instant access to perks and Member Prices on Adele beach hotels. Plus, you'll earn OneKeyCash™* on eligible bookings to use on future trips. Typically, booking in advance will help you save on your hotel booking. But, if you're feeling spontaneous, check out the last-minute deals.



*Excludes taxes and fees. OneKeyCash is not redeemable for cash and can only be used on Expedia and other participating brands.
What beach activities should we do in Adele?
Adele is not directly on the coast, so beach activities aren't available within the village itself. However, the nearby beaches of Rethymnon and Panormo offer a variety of options.

For those looking for a lively beach experience, Rethymnon Beach, just a short drive from Adele, is an excellent choice. This long, sandy beach stretches for several kilometres and offers sun loungers, umbrellas, and a wide array of watersports. You can find everything from jet skiing and parasailing to banana boat rides here. The beach is lined with cafes and tavernas, making it easy to spend a full day by the sea.

If you prefer a more relaxed and quiet beach, Panormo Beach, located to the east of Adele, is a good alternative. This sandy cove is smaller and more sheltered than Rethymnon, with calmer waters ideal for swimming and snorkelling. There are also a few tavernas directly on the beach where you can enjoy fresh seafood.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a beach hotel in Adele as a package?
Booking a beach hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking a beach vacation package well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my beach hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right beach hotel in Adele for you.
