Pilot Beach Resort in Detail

Your Wellness Hotel

Located in the bay of Almyros, on the long sandy beach of Georgioupolis, the Pilot Beach Resort offers pure relaxation and beautiful views of the Aegean Sea and the White Mountains. The modern complex, styled after a traditional Cretan village, is surrounded by olive and avocado trees and is divided into two areas by a coastal road (underpass). Seasonal operation from April to October.

Location & Surroundings

In the centre of the idyllic fishing village of Georgioupolis (about 0.8 miles away), you'll find taverns, restaurants, cafes, bars, and shopping opportunities. A bus stop for excursions to Rethymno (about 11 miles) or Chania (about 25 miles) is located directly at the hotel.

Dining & Leisure

'Gialos' by the sea invites you to enjoy tasty Greek dishes and grill specialties (à la carte at lunch) as well as theme evenings with live music. For a romantic setting, 'Almyra', the seasonal Asian à la carte restaurant, serves fresh fish/sushi with a breathtaking view of the beach (Jun.-Sept., except Wednesdays, surcharge approx. €15 (approx.
