3-star clifftop boutique hotel in Bali (Crete) with rooftop pool and sea-view rooms

Rooftop Pool & Cliff Sunbathing

The hotel has a rooftop swimming pool with panoramic views across Bali Bay and an adjacent jacuzzi. A private clifftop area with sun loungers provides direct access to the sea via steps and a swimming platform. Guests can use the hotel's kayaks and stand-up paddleboards free of charge from this platform.

Rooms & Interior Design

Each room is air-conditioned with a private bathroom and a balcony offering sea views. The interior design was created by architect Manos Yakomakis, blending the sea essence into the room layouts. Deluxe Double Rooms with Sea View are the most common room type among the 20 rooms.

Dining & Honesty Bar

The on-site restaurant serves Mediterranean cuisine with vegetarian, vegan, and dairy-free options, and breakfast is a buffet with changing daily selections. A unique honesty bar concept allows guests to serve themselves and pay based on trust, creating a relaxed social atmosphere. The rooftop also hosts barbecue experiences using fresh local ingredients.

Beach & Local Access

Bali Beach North is a 7-minute walk from the hotel, and the property sits on a cliff that overlooks the entire bay. Complimentary shuttle service is available to local attractions and nearby towns, including the Venetian Harbor in Chania. Heraklion International Airport is 52 km away via the hotel's arranged airport shuttle.

Family & Personal Service

The hotel offers family rooms, interconnected rooms, and a board games/puzzles area for children. The 20-room size means staff can provide personal attention, as reflected in guest reviews mentioning surprise birthday cakes and packed breakfasts for early departures. A seasonal outdoor heated swimming pool with a fence around it ensures safety for younger guests.
