Explore the treasures of Crete

As Greece's largest island, Crete fascinates with its diversity — majestic mountains, turquoise waters, dramatic gorges and traditional villages. With over 300 days of sunshine a year, it's the ultimate backdrop for a kosher family vacation.

During Chol Hamoed, the Aquila Rithymna Beach is your ideal base for exploring the island. The hotel provides freshly packed Glatt Kosher for Passover lunches for all your day trips.
