Knossos Royal

 A family-friendly atmosphere and five-star luxury sit side by side at the Knossos Royal, where both children and adults can take advantage of the extensive facilities. A wide selection of water-based activities are on offer for all ages in the numerous outdoor pools, and there's a gorgeous beach just minutes away for when you want to soak up some of that Cretan sunshine by the sea.

Other highlights include on-site tennis courts, a 45 metre-long water slide, beach parties, and cooking lessons – there really is plenty for everyone to enjoy here at all times of the day. 

For younger visitors, the hotel’s mini club is open from morning to evening, seven days a week. And if they’ve still got any energy left after a full day of games and entertainment, they can carry on the fun with a mini disco later on. 

When it’s time to eat, there are multiple options to choose from at the hotel, including an international buffet, an Italian restaurant, an authentic Greek place, a gourmet à la carte restaurant, and a beachfront eatery, plus a selection of other great eateries within walking distance if you want to venture out. Plus, snacks and drinks are served throughout the day at several bars, so you'll never struggle to find somewhere to quench your thirst or find a bite to eat.
