Aldemar Knossos Royal Beach Resort

Overlooking the lapping Aegean and just a short drive from the popular Cretan resort of Hersonissos, the 5 star Aldemar Knossos Royal is the perfect retreat for both couples and families. Set out like a small Greek village, find your way to the beach from its stunning landscaped pathways, or the pool if you prefer breeze-free sunbathing sessions.
Aside from its spacious pool, the hotel also comes with an array of fun facilities from open-air play areas perfect for high-energy toddlers to a kids’ club featuring all kinds of daytime activities. Teens may favour the crazy golf course or tennis courts, while grownups looking to unwind can reap the health benefits of a sauna session. There’s also a fully-equipped gym if you don’t like to skip your daily workout.
And with all that fun comes plenty of indulging thanks to the hotel's four restaurants. The main restaurant is a must for picky eaters with weekly Asian, Greek and Italian themed nights as well as a mini buffet for little appetites. There's also three a la cartes to choose from: Artemis (Greek tavern), Fontana Amorosa (Italian) and Rizes (gourmet).
Whatever your tipple, you can take advantage of local wine, beer, spirits and non-alcoholic drinks from one of the four bars for a minimum of 12 hour each day. But nothing beats sitting down for a drink at Kafeneio, an open-air coffee shop made for lazy afternoons sipping traditionally Greek beverages.
Room-wise, you can choose from family maisonettes sleeping a maximum of four plus one infant or cosy double bungalows squeezing in three guests. If you want to upgrade your stay, sea views and sharing pools are the ultimate add-on. As standard, you can expect air-conditioning (May to September) satellite TV, Wi-Fi, a bathroom, safe, hair dryer and a furnished balcony or veranda.
If you want to discover the local area there’s plenty going on in nearby Hersonissos, including a trio of sandy beaches, waterfront restaurants and family-friendly bars. On top of all that, you’re in a great spot for visiting some of the area’s major attractions. Kids will love making friends with the local sea life at Aquaworld Aquarium, which is just over a mile away. As for history buffs, don’t miss out on a chance to visit the Archaeological Site of Knossos, one of Europe’s oldest cities (20 miles away).
