Spa and Wellness Crete
Casa Delfino
9 Theofanus Street, Chania Old Town
Spa and Wellness Crete - located in Chania town, this former mansion dates from 17th century. It has been restored and converted into an exclusive hotel with exquisite taste. From the mosaic in the courtyard, to the rooftop terrace with beautiful views over Chania harbour, everything is quality at Casa Delfino.
Tucked in behind the harbour amongst the narrow streets of old Chania, the Delfino is a twist and a turn only from the harbour with its endless ribbon of cafes and tavernas by the waterfront.
Casa Delfino is located in the small narrow streets of Chania's old town, seconds from the Venetian harbour lined with international class boutiques, art galleries and tavernas. For its location alone, it is a magical choice.
Once inside the high walls of the entrance courtyard, however, the world melts away and a sanctuary envelopes the weary traveller. Tastefully renovated from a private mansion, this magnificent home was built in the 17th century.
Now offering luxury in its exclusive 22 suites, services include relaxing massage. Choose from a standard room, a one bedroom apartment, a two bedroom suite, a two bedroom apartment, a honeymoon suite or the penthouse suite.
The small private bar leads into the relaxing courtyard, with soft green tones from the trees contrasting with the sandy colours of the mosaique floor, providing a candlelit evening or fresh breakfast experience.
The views from the rooftop terrace of Chania harbour, over Chania town to the White Mountains and down into the narrow laneways of Chania old town are enjoyed by all guests, accompanied by a drink or snack from the terrace bar, whilst relaxing on teak lounge chairs under shady umbrellas, certainly one of the best ways to experience the ambience of Chania harbour.
One of our most recommended accommodation experiences in Kriti.
