Lassithi Crete is a marvellous holiday spot, with amazing beaches and interesting historical sites that will fill your days with relaxing and exciting activities. The prefecture of Lassithi is located on the eastern side of Crete, bordering Heraklion prefecture, offering easy access to the famous Minoan Palaces and the major transportation hubs.

At Vacation Greece, we can provide you with an extensive list of hotels in Lassithi Crete that ranges from tourist-class hotels to posh luxury hotel resorts for the very demanding traveller. All types of accommodation are available, including hotels, studios, apartments, luxury suites and villas, satisfying all needs and tastes. We recommend reserving your accommodation at one of our Lassithi hotels in the popular tourist resorts of Agios Nikolaos, Ierapetra, Sitia, and Ammoudara, and Elounda or in the quieter seaside villages of Sissi or Milatos.


Archaeological monuments and natural sites abound in Lassithi, enabling visitors to experience the rich history and unique features that only the island of Crete can offer. The ancient sites in Makrygialos, Zakros, Palekastro, Gournia, Praisos, Pachia Ammos, and Sitia display the area’s history from Prehistoric Times to the Roman Era. The Venetian Fortresses in Sitia and Ierapetra, and the Toplou Monastery in Sitia provide a glimpse of Lassithi’s ‘modern’ history. The superb museums in Agios Nikolaos, Sitia and Ierapetra include large collections of artefacts relative to the history of the region.

Probably the biggest attraction of the Lassithi prefecture is the world-famous Palm Tree Forest in Vai, a unique natural area, one of its kind in Europe. The Lassithi Plateau is the ideal place for trekkers and nature lovers, while the gorges of Cha and Chavga are extremely impressive, especially for hiking enthusiasts. Milatos Cave is also a wonderful natural site, with breathtaking stalagmites and stalactites.

Lassithi beaches are some of the finest in Crete. Apart from the exquisite Palm Tree Beach in Vai, which is the most popular of all Lassithi beaches, we recommend visiting as many as possible. Near Vai, you will also come across the lovely beaches of Zakros, Itanos and Palekastro, while on the southern coast of the prefecture, Agia Fotia, Myrtos, Makrygialos, Ierapetra, and Xerokambos are considered the best. The northern coast of Lassithi is lined with amazing beaches, including Elounda, Milatos, Sissi, Plaka, Ammoudara, Almyros, Pachia Ammos, Havania, Istro, Sitia, and Diros. The islets of Koufonissi, Chryssi and Spinalonga also have marvellous beaches, which you can reach by excursion boat.
