Grecotel LuxMe White

Grecotel LUXME White stretches along a broad sweep of Crete’s north coast near Rethymno, where the shoreline feels open and expansive, with the beach, pools and social spaces combining to create a setting that is both polished and naturally full of energy.

The layout is deliberately generous, with wide, light-filled spaces that flow easily from one area to the next. Pale tones, natural textures and open terraces keep everything feeling bright and relaxed, while the number of pools and water features creates a constant visual link back to the sea.

Despite its scale, the design avoids feeling overworked, leaning instead into a more fluid, lifestyle-led atmosphere where movement through the resort feels instinctive rather than structured.

Rooms & Suites

Accommodation is varied and well tiered, ranging from guest rooms through to Yali Suites and seafront villas, allowing the experience to shift depending on the level of privacy and space you choose.

Swim-up rooms, shared infinity pools and private pool villas introduce a more immersive dimension, turning the higher categories into self-contained stays while still remaining connected to the wider resort.

Dining

Dining is one of the defining elements of the resort, built around a collection of venues that each bring a distinct identity. Ventanas Il Mar anchors the experience with a Mediterranean-led buffet overlooking the sea, where live cooking and changing menus keep the offering dynamic rather than repetitive.

Tavernaki shifts the focus towards traditional Greek flavours in a more relaxed, taverna-style setting, while Fico D’India moves between daytime ease and evening dining with a softer Italian influence. Asia White adds contrast through its Lebanese-inspired menu, broadening the overall culinary direction, while The White introduces a more refined, adults-focused setting that elevates the tone further.

Lobsteria, alongside the patisserie, creperie and gelateria, extends the experience across the day, creating a continuous, layered approach to dining rather than fixed mealtimes. The bar scene is spread across the resort, with beachfront and poolside spaces carrying the atmosphere from day into evening with ease.

Experience

The rhythm of the resort builds naturally, from quieter mornings by the beach through to afternoons around the pools and a gradual shift into music and evening energy as the day unfolds. With 17 pools across the property, there’s enough space to find both quieter corners and more social areas.

Activities, live performances and themed evenings add movement without overwhelming the experience, allowing the overall pace to remain balanced rather than driven.

Wellness

The Hippie Spa introduces a more relaxed approach to wellness, with treatments, sauna and open-air massage spaces that sit comfortably within the wider lifestyle feel of the resort. It complements the experience rather than competing with it.

Where

Located around 8 km from Rethymno and within reach of both Heraklion and Chania airports, the resort is well positioned for exploring this stretch of the island while remaining firmly centred around its own beachfront setting.
