(TRAVPR.COM) GREECE - July 16th, 2016 - With the best hospitality standards, Crete welcomed on Wednesday one of the most famous and experienced Russians cosmonauts, the 54-year-old Yuri Malenchenko, who started his physical rehabilitation program in Georgioupolis of Chania, in Anemos Luxury Grand Resort, the new luxury hotel of the island.

The Russian cosmonaut accompanied by his wife Aikaterini and their daughter Camila, as well as his doctors and his personal trainer of the Russian Space Agency, who cooperates with the Greek owned company of Moscow “Agora” in the implementation of rehabilitation programs for Russian cosmonauts. A program that is developed for the second time in Crete and more specifically in Chania.

The medical team of the Russian cosmonaut chose the “Cretan Massage” and a series of therapies from Aegeo Spa of Anemos Luxury Grand Resort expressing gratitude for the reception and the Cretan hospitality that started from the first minute of his stay in the luxury hotel.

“Crete and hospitality, was a familiar combination for the travelers since last year but we built one more connotation, Crete and high quality standards in the physical rehabilitation of the cosmonauts utilizing the exceptional nature, sea and the wonderful Cretan diet. However, above everything is the wonderful human contact, the atmosphere of sympathy and interest from our friends and partners that especially for us, the Russian guests, is an extremely important parameter” said Michail Potapov, veteran doctor and candidate cosmonaut.  The rehabilitation program was implemented thanks to his tenacity and interest.

"I have no words to describe the first experiences for me and my family," said Yuri Malentsenko, who already enjoyed his first bath in the beach of Kavros. "It's a magical place, you can hardly imagine such a great combination of mountain and so much sand. It is an exotic landscape with very friendly people so close to you that help you calm your body after all the exhaustion in Space. Crete and Anemos Luxury Grand Resort is an excellent choice and we will live unforgettable moments here” said Yuri who follows the steps of Anton Shkaplerov, who also completed his rehabilitation program in Crete last year.

“Anton describes with the best words his stay in Crete last year, but if you don’t experience it yourself, it’s hard to imagine what Crete is like..” said Yuri Malentsenko  that already started planning his program of excursions and visits to attractions and to the highlights of the history and culture of Crete.
