Adelianos Campos
means "the plains of Adele", and Adele is a village above the eastern half of the bay of
 Rethymnon.
So Adelianos Campos is the flat areal between the village and the coast.
The soil is of poor quality, but there is a mile-long sandy beach.
Therefore, the local farmers decided already many years ago to grow hotels rather than olives.

Today, Adelianos Campos is the biggest hotel suburb of Rethymnon on the island of
Crete,
located about midway between the town and the eastern edge of the bay.
The bigger hotel sites of the region concentrate here and in the two neighbouring villages of
Platanias
and
Pighianos Campos,
followed by wide ranging gastronomic, sports and leisure facilities, and of course the whole bandwidth of Mediterranean watersports.

Even the headquarters of Crete's most popular dive center
Atlantis
are located on the beach by Adelianos Campos' biggest hotel resort.
From November till mid May, the hotel suburb is however closed.
Only one supermarket, one bar, the pharmacy and the head office of Crete's leading car rental company
Eurocars
stay open.
And the office of Creta online and m-tours, but that does not count as a shop.
