Map & location


Kolymbari, Crete (Chania Area), Greece

Selini Suites & Waterpark sits in Kolymbari, a traditional Cretan village between olive groves and a sweeping bay on the north-west coast. It’s a quieter choice than Chania town, yet close enough for easy day trips to the Venetian harbour, markets and museums.

Within a short stroll you’ll find local tavernas, cafés and a sprinkling of shops, while the pebbly-sand beach is under 10 minutes’ walk away for sea swims and sunset wanders. This is a great base if you like a relaxed resort feel with authentic villages and countryside on your doorstep.

  • Approx. transfer time from airport 1 hour 15 minutes (from Chania CHQ)

Facilities

Pool & outdoors


Water babies are spoilt for choice here. The hotel features three outdoor pools, including:
  • A large saltwater pool with a children’s section, sunbeds and parasols — inflatables permitted
  • A freshwater pool with children’s section and relaxed sunbathing terrace — inflatables and water toys allowed
  • An additional saltwater pool with loungers and parasols for quieter swims

Pool towels are available (deposit or local charge may apply), and facilities can vary slightly by pool.

The big headline for families is the aqua park at Selini Aquapark, around 150m from the hotel, included for guests. Expect slides, a kamikaze chute and multi-lane racer slides, typically open between about 10:30 and 18:00, six days a week depending on occupancy and weather.

The nearest beach is approximately 550m away — a natural pebbly-sand stretch backed by fields and mountains, perfect for a refreshing dip and evening strolls.

Spa, sports & wellness


Selini Suites & Waterpark is all about relaxed, sunshine days rather than full-on sports resorts, but you’ll still find enough to keep everyone entertained between pool sessions.

On site you can enjoy:

  • Table tennis
  • Regular evening entertainment (roughly late May–end September) with live music and professional shows
  • Occasional evening entertainment in October, including live music
  • Children’s playground with swings and slides

There’s also a small selection of spa-style treatments occasionally available or nearby (services and availability can vary), ideal if you fancy a massage while the kids are at the slides.

Practical extras include a 24-hour reception, concierge-style assistance and equipment hire such as bottle warmers, kettles, pushchairs, wheelchairs and mobility scooters (some items local charge).
