Basking in the warm Mediterranean sunshine

If you are planning on taking your family to the Mediterranean in the near future then you’ll be pleased to hear Louis Hotels has introduced a Family World Centre at the four-star Louis Creta Princess Resort on Crete. The hotel is located at Platanias, ten miles from the Venetian coastal town of Chania. 

The new family facilities mean that all sorts of baby equipment can be ordered before arrival. The restaurants also have high chairs and special children’s menus, while the hotel has a crèche for babies and toddlers and a children’s club for children three years and over. Activities for older children include tennis, archery, mini golf, basketball and volleyball. There is also a new pirate-themed playground with a pirate ship and a children’s pool.

Accommodation is in elegantly designed garden rooms situated around the lagoon-shaped pool or overlooking the sea. Prices for a week’s holiday start from £497 (adult) and £205 (child) based on two sharing, including flights from Gatwick. For bookings, tel: 0800 093 3322 or visit www.olympicholidays.com
