Momi Slow Living Hotel sits on Crete’s north coast in Hersonissos, a resort that neatly mixes beach life, nightlife and easy access to ancient sites. The hotel itself is tucked in a quieter pocket away from the main strip, so you can enjoy calmer evenings on your balcony or by the pool, then stroll or taxi into town when you want more buzz.

You’re about 1km from the nearest beach, with a handy shuttle bus for easy access, and roughly 1.5km from the resort centre and Hersonissos Harbour. From here, it’s simple to explore Knossos, traditional villages or Spinalonga on day trips.

• Beach: approx. 1km (shuttle bus to the beach)
• Hersonissos resort centre: approx. 1.5km
• Hersonissos Harbour: approx. 1.5km

Approx. transfer time from airport: 1 Hour (from Heraklion – HER)

Hersonissos, Crete (Heraklion Area), Greece

Elia Restaurant is the hotel’s stylish buffet venue, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner with a mix of Greek and international dishes. Expect fresh salads, grilled meats, classic Cretan flavours and lighter options that suit the slow-living ethos. Smart-casual dress is encouraged (no beachwear at dinner).

A relaxed pool bar serves barista coffees, soft drinks, cocktails and local wines throughout the day into the night, with shaded seating and garden views. Under All Inclusive, a selection of local alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks is typically available from late morning until around 23:00, plus snacks for at least three hours a day between meals. Under Half Board, drinks are chargeable outside of breakfast and dinner.

Operational dates, opening hours, and whether reservations or supplements apply can vary by season and board basis; the latest information is confirmed on arrival. What All Inclusive typically includes.

The focus of the outdoor space is a serene freshwater pool framed by sunbeds, parasols and low-slung seating. The design keeps things low-key and uncluttered, with plenty of room to stretch out and a mellow soundtrack from the pool bar rather than loud activities. Complimentary pool towels are provided.

You’re around 1km from the beach; when you don’t fancy walking, the hotel runs a shuttle service to the shore at set times (subject to schedule and season). Beaches in this part of Hersonissos are typically a mix of sand and shingle with clear, swimmable water and a choice of local tavernas.

Keep body and mind in balance at the compact but well-equipped gym, featuring cardio machines, free weights and a stretching zone, generally open from early morning through to late evening (minimum age 18 years).

The spa offers sauna sessions and a menu of massage and beauty treatments in a calm, minimalist space (18+, local charges apply). It’s ideal for a post-flight unwind or a couples’ ritual after a day exploring Crete.

In the evenings, the open-air cinema adds a quietly sociable touch to the slow-living concept, with films screened under the stars on selected nights.

Other useful facilities include a reception with concierge support, currency exchange (local charge) and luggage storage.
