On Sunday, April 27th, 2025, the 10th Orange Festival brought together locals and visitors for a joyful day full of colors, aromas, and authentic Cretan tradition — and Fodele Beach Hotel was honored to stand by this beloved celebration as its Grand Sponsor.

The festival was a vibrant tribute to the region’s citrus heritage, featuring tastings of fresh local oranges, delicious orange-based dishes, and traditional music and dance.

Visitors experienced the true essence of Cretan culture and hospitality in a festive, welcoming atmosphere.

Set in the heart of a landscape filled with orange groves and green hills, the event reminded us of the close connection between nature, tradition, and community — values we deeply embrace.

At Fodele Beach Hotel, supporting local initiatives like the Orange Festival reflects our commitment to sustainability, culture, and giving back to the community that surrounds us.

💚 Together, we celebrate what makes Crete truly special.
