Beach Hotels & Resorts in Marathi from AU$100

The best area to stay in Marathi for beaches is directly along Marathi Beach itself, particularly the central stretch where most of the facilities are located.


Marathi Beach is known for its clear, shallow waters and fine sand, making it a natural harbour protected from the strong northerly winds. The beach is lined with a selection of tavernas and cafes right on the sand, offering direct access to refreshments and meals. You'll find sun loungers and parasols readily available, ensuring a comfortable day by the sea.


This area is particularly good for families with young children due to the calm, shallow waters, which are ideal for paddling and safe swimming. The convenience of having everything within a few steps – from the sea to lunch – makes it very relaxing for parents.


Couples looking for a tranquil beach holiday will also appreciate Marathi. It's less crowded than some other beaches on Crete, offering a relaxed atmosphere superb for unwinding.

The most popular time to stay in a beach hotel in Marathi is during July and August, when the weather is consistently sunny and warm. Temperatures typically range from 27°C to 30°C, creating ideal conditions for swimming, sunbathing, and enjoying the crystal-clear waters of Marathi Beach.


During these months, the beach resorts and tavernas are in full swing, offering a lively yet relaxed atmosphere great for families and couples seeking a classic Mediterranean escape. All water sports activities are readily available, and boat trips to nearby coves are frequent. It's a fantastic time for enjoying long days by the sea and evenings dining al fresco with stunning bay views.


As another option, June is a wonderful alternative. The weather is still beautifully warm, with temperatures generally between 24°C and 28°C, making it excellent for all beach activities.

The best area to stay in Marathi for beach activities is right along Marathi Beach itself, or its neighbouring bay, Loutraki Beach.
