The Crete Golf Club is rapidly becoming known as one of
the finest courses throughout Europe, and
is best described as a desert-style lay-out, featuring expansive fairways
hewn through rocks and ravines. First-time players soon realize that the
emphasis is on accuracy, although the landing areas are generous enough to
accommodate all but the most errant shots.
The modern Club House, which sits on a hill overlooking the first 9 holes of
the course, features a spacious bar and restaurant where friendly and
efficient staff serve a variety of food and drinks throughout the day. There
is a large outdoor terrace area where golfers can relax and enjoy their meal
or drinks in the sun and also a well-stocked Pro-shop in which visitors can
purchase top-quality golf clothes, golf shoes, golf balls, Maui Jim
Sunglasses and other souvenirs.
