Over the years I have visited many different countries in Europe, this year I was lucky enough to experience the beauty and wonder of Greece, in particular the stunning island, Crete. Being the largest of the Greek islands I knew there would be lots to explore and experience.
My hotel was in a charming beachside town called Hersonissos. My family and I stayed in a gorgeous five-star hotel called Stella Palace Resort and Spa; which was like an oasis and a complete escape from the outside world. At the heart of the hotel were the swimming pools which cascaded like waterfalls down to the sea. I spent the majority of my days soaking up the Mediterranean sun from the side of the pool being shaded by the beautiful palm trees which were strategically placed around the hotel.
The hotel rooms were positioned around the edge of the complex, the buildings were of white brick with terracotta roofs, with bright pink and purple flowers covering the walls of the rooms. Every room had either a pool or beach view. My room was in the perfect location right next to the pool. The room was luxurious and a perfect haven away from a busy day in the sun.
