Welcome to the Mistral Hotel in Crete, Greece.
Solo holidays with no single supplement.
If you like to travel alone, but not be alone at your destination, join us to experience authentic Greece and Crete and we promise to make your solo holiday a memorable one.
The Mistral is a boutique-style hotel-resort that caters exclusively for independent solo travellers who enjoy a sociable atmosphere, great food and the warm Mediterranean climate.
The Mistral has 35 rooms – 27 deluxe and 8 standard – and all for single occupancy.
The design is contemporary Cretan styling with furnishings, bathroom fittings, tiles and locally produced artwork, carefully selected to create the perfect ambience for your holiday. Every bed has an award winning COCO MAT Orthosomatic Top Mattress and luxury feather pillows.
Dining at the Mistral is friendly and social and for many guests represents one of the highlights of their stay. We serve traditional, healthy, home-made Cretan food with all guests eating together to enjoy a truly Mediterranean experience.
Seated at long tables, the meals showcase the best of the island’s cuisine, with much of the ingredients sourced from our hotel garden and cooked using exclusively extra virgin olive oil from our family groves.
The Mistral’s famous outdoor bar is the focal point of the hotel. Serving refreshing drinks as you relax by the pools during the day, it sits at the centre of our lively night-time atmosphere.
We have created a sanctuary of relaxation, rejuvenation and beauty to take you on a journey that will stimulate and invigorate your senses.
Our wellness and spa area offers a wide range of therapies, massages and treatments, with easy-to-book appointments through our reception staff.
Take time to rebalance, and to relax your body and mind, during our new Yoga and Wellbeing Week.
Our Flavours of Crete Week is a celebration of the senses, a journey through the authentic components of the island’s healthy Mediterranean diet in a feast of the finest food and drink.
Crete is a beautiful island and there is no better way to experience the wonderful flora, fauna and stunning scenery than on foot, in the company of like-minded people.

The Mistral Hotel offers a range of experiences and excursions hosted by members of the Mistral team, who between them have a wealth of knowledge of the island, its culture, history and amenities. As well as our most popular excursions, we can also arrange specific, tailor-made, excursions upon request.
The Mistral is located 16km west of the regional capital Chania, is just three minutes’ walk from the shoreline at Maleme, and within easy distance of many of the region’s popular sandy beaches at Platanias, Falassarna and Elafonissi.
Alongside the wonderful Cretan climate and warm temperatures, you will be greeted at the Mistral by welcoming and helpful staff with our reception open long hours during the day.
Have been to the Mistral several times and each time is like visiting family. Adonis and the team really go the extra mile to make their guests feel welcome, and birthday celebrations are extra special. I would recommend this hotel to any independent traveller, particularly those going on their first solo holiday. If you travel on Tuesday there is free pick up from Chania airport and by the time the mini bus has reached the hotel, new friendships have been formed.
Friendly hotel for solos. You’ll get a warm welcome This is a unique place where you can relax and go at your own pace. Not herded about like some other solo holidays Staff are amazing Good food and lovely accommodation. Just do it. It’ll be your 2nd home
The Mistral, its owners, staff and guests are so welcoming and so friendly, it truly feels like a home from home. I have now been three times and will certainly come back. This year I introduced my friends and they will return too !
This is a fabulous place to stay. I’ve been here 4 times and have already booked my rooms for next year. It’s a totally amazing hotel.
I love it!
Adonis is the perfect host and all of the staff are fabulous.
The food is authentic Greek cuisine and is delicious
My first trip to the Mistral was FABULOUS!! I had a comfy, cozy room – not that I spent very much time in it. The staff is superb; all friendly and welcoming, including the house cat! We did 3 different trips and each one was amazing and far surpassed my expectations. The evening dinners where delicious and Saturday’s Greek night was a blast. I highly recommend this hotel to everyone.
