Domes of Elounda, Autograph Collection

8/10 Good

"A beautiful premium resort, which is set in sunning location."

Phāea Cretan Malia, a Member of Design Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"This is such a brilliant hotel for young families. It’s a really beautiful place with some lovely restaurants, bars & some cute additions like the gelateria & the little on-site kafenio. The staff are brilliant with kids and they’ve thought of everything you need. Malia isn’t the prettiest area, but parts of the Old Town are charming with some lovely, great value restaurants. My only criticism of this hotel how expensive the restaurant are. We chose not to go half board or all-included but I wish we had – I think it would’ve been much better value overall!"

Frequently asked questions

How much does a beach hotel in Sissi cost?

Prices for beach hotels in Sissi vary, but you can find a great deal from £33 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 Sissi is best to stay in for beaches?

The best area to stay in Sissi for beaches is the eastern side of the village, particularly around Boufos Beach and Avlaki Beach.

This part of Sissi offers direct access to the village's main sandy and pebbly beaches. Boufos Beach is the largest and most organised, with sun loungers and parasols available, while Avlaki Beach is a smaller, more secluded cove located between rocky outcrops. The coastal path connecting these beaches is pleasant for a stroll.

Couples looking for a relaxing beach holiday will find this area ideal. The proximity to the sea means you're just steps away from swimming and sunbathing, and many accommodations in this area offer sea views.

What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Sissi?

The most popular time to stay in a beach hotel in Sissi is during the summer months of July and August. These months offer the warmest sea temperatures, typically around 25-27°C, which is fantastic for swimming, snorkelling, and enjoying the beautiful coastline. You'll find the beach resorts buzzing with activity, and all the watersports and beachfront tavernas will be operating at their peak. For families with children, this is often the most convenient time to travel, aligning with school holidays.

May presents a wonderful alternative for a beach holiday in Sissi. The weather is delightfully warm, with sea temperatures comfortably in the low 20s, ideal for enjoying the beaches without the intense heat of mid-summer. You may find better value on hotel stays and it can be easier to secure reservations at your preferred beachfront properties.

How can I save on a beach hotel in Sissi with Expedia?

One Key™ —Expedia's free travel rewards programme—gives you instant access to perks and Member Prices on Sissi 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 Sissi?

For beach activities in Sissi, you should definitely explore snorkelling, paddleboarding, and relaxing on the local beaches.

Sissi itself has a few smaller, pleasant beaches and coves, such as Kalimera Kriti Beach and Boufos Beach, which are great for a relaxed day in the sun. The waters here are typically calm and clear, making them suitable for casual swimming and snorkelling directly from the shore. You'll often find sunbeds and parasols available for hire, making it easy to settle in for the day.

For those looking for a bit more activity, paddleboarding is a popular option, especially in the sheltered coves where the water is particularly still. Many local providers offer paddleboard rentals, and it's a lovely way to see the coastline from a different perspective. These activities are superb for couples or families looking for gentle water-based fun without venturing too far.

If you're keen on exploring more extensive beaches or engaging in activities like jet skiing or banana boat rides, a short drive will take you to larger resorts like Malia or Stalis, which have a wider range of organised water sports.

Is it cheaper to book flights and a beach hotel in Sissi 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 Sissi for you.
