Simply 35 minutes from Heraklion Airport, The Acro Suites is constructed on and architecturally crafted to enrich the rocky cliffs and shoreline of Mononaftis Bay. The time period ‘Acro’ itself comes from the traditional Greek phrase ‘akros/akron’ that means ‘on the sting, the place just a little hidden paradise has been constructed overlooking the ocean’; the right identify for this virtually all the time totally booked literal haven.
