Venue & Accommodation

OAC Accommodation and conference package

The upcoming conference will take place at the Orthodox Academy of Crete (OAC), located in Kolymbari. The OAC is equipped with comfortable rooms, each with 2 beds or a double bed, and few of them are suites, comprising two rooms with a double bed in one room and a sofa in the other. All rooms are equipped with their own bathroom, and most offer a breathtaking sea view and partly air-conditioning.

OAC offers a delightful dining experience with breakfast and two meals served daily in the foundation's dining room. Guests can enjoy their meals on the veranda with a stunning view of the sea during the summer months. 

The meals at OAC are inspired by traditional Cretan cuisine and include a variety of starters, salads, main courses, fruits/desserts, and local wine and water. The buffet-style breakfast is sure to satisfy any appetite, while lunch and dinner offer warm and savoury meals. At the same time, conference organizers make sure to provide a wide range of high-quality vegetarian dishes that are both nutritious and delicious.

The OAC offers an all-inclusive package that includes accommodation, full board, and conference facilities. Please refer to the accommodation costs listed below:

  1. Fill out the "OAC room booking" form found under the Registration menu item to make a pre-reservation. Do not proceed with any payment until you receive confirmation of your stay from the organizers.
  2. After receiving confirmation from the organizers, pay for all nights once you have bought your ticket or have secured your travel dates (it is non-refundable). If you need to make changes to your reservation dates, please email the organizers and wait for confirmation before making any changes to the registration form. Changes to the registration form alone will not affect your confirmed dates.
