InterContinental Crete by IHG
Agios Nikolaos, Greece · ★ 4.7 Exceptional B.Booking.com 9.3
A private plunge pool on your balcony, the Cretan Sea straight ahead, and absolutely nowhere to be.
Slip into the water and the view does the rest. The plunge pool sits right on your private balcony at the InterContinental Crete, and through the glass balustrade the sea stretches out to a pair of rocky islands with nothing between you and the horizon. It's the kind of afternoon that empties your head without any effort on your part.
If you're looking for a hotel with a private in-room plunge pool in Agios Nikolaos, this is one of the most polished options on the coast. Six room types carry the pool, from premium king and twin rooms to one-bedroom suites, most with sea views. Guests rate the place 9.3 out of 10, which on a property this size is genuinely hard to argue with. The honest catch: balcony pools are compact by nature, so go in expecting a cool, private dip rather than lengths.

Questions, answered
Where exactly is the plunge pool, and can you see the sea from it?+
The pool sits on your private balcony, with a glass balustrade that keeps the sea view completely open. From the photos, you're looking straight out to the Cretan Sea and the islands beyond.
Is the plunge pool available in more than one room type?+
Yes, six categories include it, ranging from premium king and twin rooms to one-bedroom suites, most listed with a sea view, so there's a size and configuration to suit couples or small groups.
Which area of Agios Nikolaos gives the best views from an in-room tub?+
The bay-facing properties on the northern and eastern edges of town, such as St. Nicolas Bay Resort Hotel & Villas, tend to offer the most direct water views. A suite perched above Mirabello Bay means you're looking at open sea rather than rooftops.
What's the price range for a private tub suite here, and when is the best-value time to visit?+
Nightly rates across our listed properties run from around €63 to €366, with the lower end available in shoulder season, typically May or October. You'll get warm enough weather to actually use an outdoor plunge pool without the peak-August crowds and prices.
