Pilot Beach Resort in Detail

Your Wellness Hotel

Directly on the picturesque bay of Almyros and the endless sandy beach of Georgioupolis, the Pilot Beach Resort awaits you, a haven of relaxation with postcard views of the Aegean and the majestic White Mountains. The spacious complex, styled like a modern Cretan village, is nestled in a green oasis with olive and avocado trees, blending Mediterranean flair with stylish comfort. Two harmoniously designed resort areas, connected by an underpass, offer ample space for relaxation, activity, and enjoyment.
Open from April to October, the perfect place for your seaside retreat.

Location & Surroundings

Just about 0.8 miles from the charming coastal town of Georgioupolis, a Mediterranean holiday atmosphere straight out of a picture book awaits: cosy taverns, small boutiques, cafés, and bars invite you to stroll, feast, and linger.
And if you want to explore more of the island - no problem: The bus stop right at the hotel conveniently takes you to the highlights of the region, such as romantic Rethymno (about 11 miles) or the vibrant port city of Chania (about 25 miles). Crete is at your feet!

Dining & Leisure

Culinary delights are a top priority at Pilot Beach Resort, offered across four stylish restaurants each with a unique ambiance. Whether Mediterranean, Asian, or traditional Greek, there's something for every palate. Choose from buffet or à la carte, with sea views or in a relaxed family atmosphere: diversity, freshness, and enjoyment are always at the forefront.
The perfect start to your day begins in the main restaurant "Kronos", accessible directly from the lobby via elevator. Here, you'll find varied buffets for breakfast, lunch, and dinner - all inspired by international and Mediterranean flavors. Vegetarian, vegan, and special dietary dishes are available upon request.
Experience authentic Greek cuisine at the charming "Ariadni", featuring island classics lovingly prepared and accompanied by a wide selection of vegetarian and vegan options. For early risers, an Early Breakfast is available from 5:00 a.m., ideal for those with an early check-out.
At lunch, a complimentary "Kids Corner" with pizza, pasta, chicken nuggets, and more keeps our little guests happy. In the evening, "Ariadni" combines Greek à la carte with a versatile buffet of starters and desserts, offering meat, fish, or vegetarian main dishes to choose from.
Located directly on the beach, "Gialos" invites you to enjoy dining with a view. Greek grill specialties are served à la carte at lunch. In the evening, themed nights with live music enchant, such as Lobster Night (Saturdays, approx. €45 (approx. UK £39 / USD $48) per person) or "Cretan Night" with regional specialties (Wednesdays, approx. €18 (approx. UK £16 / USD $20) per person).
A true highlight is the exclusive "Almyra" (June to September, except Wednesdays): Fresh fish, sushi, and a breathtaking sea view make for an especially romantic dinner experience, available for an additional charge (approx. €15 (approx. UK £13 / USD $16) per person).
The beach restaurants are open in the evening by reservation. At lunch, a variety of dishes await you, including vegetarian options, both from the buffet and à la carte.

Wellness & Spa

Four outdoor pools (open daily from 9:00 a.m. to 7:30 p.m.) and a stylish indoor pool provide refreshment and fun at any time of day.
In the exclusive Olive Spa, it's all about holistic well-being, with high-quality treatments for body and mind, some using organic olive oil produced on-site.
A total of 11 treatment rooms with colour light therapy are available for soothing massages, facial treatments, body shaping (e.g., with the "Ultratone" ultrasound device), vacuum and hydro massages, and much more.
The "Thermal Suite" offers everything a wellness enthusiast could desire: steam bath, sauna, bio sauna, sensorial showers, plunge pool, and a stylish relaxation room for unwinding. For special moments as a couple, there's the exclusive "Private Spa Suite" with bio sauna, terrace, and outdoor Jacuzzi - ideal for couple's treatments with an extra touch of comfort.

Pilot Farm

At Pilot Beach Resort, holiday meets authenticity: The complex is harmoniously integrated into nature, including its own organic cultivation with over 3,000 olive trees, avocados, seasonal vegetables, and a colourful selection of fruits.
30% of the food at the resort comes directly from its own fields - fresher, more sustainable, and more regional is hardly possible! This is especially noticeable in the lovingly prepared dishes of the hotel kitchen.
The resort's special pride: the high-quality organic olive oil produced in-house. A staple in the kitchen - and for guests, a very special souvenir: a small bottle of Cretan lifestyle as a reminder of a delightful stay.

Fitness & Courses

The modern gym (open daily from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.) and a dedicated workout room with Vibro Plate are ready for use.
Available for a fee: Personal training, yoga, pilates, TRX, cross training, and swimming lessons.

Free Time

For an additional fee: Two floodlit tennis courts and a modern padel court (€10/hour, approx. UK £9 / USD $11), as well as billiards, archery, fencing, and creative art workshops for those wanting to unleash their creativity during their holiday.
Loads of fun guaranteed for children: A dedicated kids' pool with slides and water features (10:30 a.m.-6:00 p.m.), a cheerful mini disco, loving child animation, and even a little train chugging through the resort. Babysitting is available on request for a fee.
