How to get there

To Crete by plane
There are many direct flights to Heraclion from most of the major European cities from early April until to the end of October. Flying time around 3 - 4 hours. You can get to Creta Suites from two airports on Crete - Heraclion (110 km) and Sitia (60 km). There are regular flights to Heraclion from all larger European cities and you can also fly from many Greek cities and islands.

From Heraclion to Koutsounari and Creta Suites
1) Major rent a car companies and local car rentals. The easiest is to contact Creta Suites and let them arrange for a rental car waiting for you at the airport or the port. Count on about €180 - €280/week, tax, insurance and free mileage included. It takes about 1.30 hours of some beautiful scenery along the coastline of Crete to go by car to Creta Suites.
Directions: After the Capital city of HERAKLION Head for the city of Agios Nikolaos (60 km). Don't go through Agios Nikolaos, but turn right just before, following the sign to the city of IERAPETRA (35 km). At the first traffic lights before Ierapetra, turn left towards the city of Sitia. After 9 km you will reach the Village of KOUTSOUNARI. There you follow the left sign to the Hill of KOUTSOUNARI and after 600 meters you will find the resort. We recommend a rental car, since there are so many interesting attractions to visit nearby. TOTAL TIME - APROX.: 1 Hour and 40 Minutes.2) Taxi Book a taxi through Creta Suites to be waiting for you at the airport or the port in Heraclion. Price about €135. 3) Bus - we don't recommend that. First you have to take a taxi to the bus station. Take a bus to Agios Nikolaos where you change to one going to Ierapetra. There you change again to another bus, heading for Koutsounari. Bus is available only on day time.
