Why it's on the list
The hotel features a variety of pools, including the largest seafront pool in Crete, which can be heated to 27°C. A separate 80-square-meter kids' pool is heated even on warm days. The Six Senses Spa offers an indoor and outdoor seawater pool heated to 32°C. Many suites and villas come with private heated seawater pools, some offering sea views.

Why it's not higher
The main shared pool uses freshwater, which may not appeal to all guests. While there are numerous private pools, a specific pool view is not confirmed for all of them.
