Mountains rearing straight up from the sea deep wooded gorges, ravines and valleys, standing proud and acting as a magnet to the eye and the imagination. The Sfakia/Loutro region has been the site of heroic deeds, ancient civilizations, and constant intrigue for thousands of years, and the home of brave tough people, made so by their labors on the land and their experiences.

Today the village of Loutro is a great attraction for tourists, especially for other Cretans who escape the crowded and noisy northern regions of Crete, for peace, fun, and relaxation. Loutro is their secret holiday hideaway not yet discovered by the average tourist. The few foreign tourists that have visited Loutro most likely first got a glimpse of the village while on the ferry boat traveling between Agia Roumeli and Sfakia, and decided that it was a place they had to return to for a holiday.

The majestic scenery, beauty, crystal clear Mediterranean water, friendly people and peacefulness makes Loutro the perfect choice for an unforgettable holiday.

All of us here at Loutro invite you to visit us for an experience that will forever remain in your heart.
