In this beautiful settlement that emerges through cool surfaces of water, painted with light blue shades and decorated with innumerable green strokes from its gardens, awaits your dream shelter: a luxury suite or room, made of timber, stone, marble, ideas, atmosphere, finesse and imagination. Relax in the worlds’ best thalassotherapy center, enjoy the secrets of Cretan cuisine, discover rare Mediterranean flavours, taste exceptional light recipes and surrender to the enchanting contradictions of summer. The sun and the sea, heat and cool, isolation and cosmopolitan life, calmness and intensity, exercise and relaxation - it is all here: in the quiet rooms, the blue beaches, the turquoise swimming-pools, the atmospheric restaurants and bars, the impeccable athletic facilities. And, above all, in our traditional Cretan hospitality.
Aldemar Royal Mare Village, a charming labyrinth of pleasures, challenges you to explore it.
Through a maze of culinary paths, Royal Mare Village leads you to microcosms of wondrous delights. Here, our experienced and knowledgeable chefs derive their inspiration from classical recipes and draw up a line of travel to the land of flavour that starts at the bougainvilleas in the cobbled yard, known as El Greco. In accordance with the dictates of authentic Cretan cuisine, anthotyro cheese, olive oil, wild greens and rosemary are indispensable ingredients; vine leaves are patiently and meticulously rolled up; rock fish is cooked over low fire; the quaint smell of smoked food is all around the fireplace; sweets are served with cool raki.
Moving on to the stylish, gourmet Candia Restaurant, we come across creations of Mediterranean gastronomy of the first magnitude, tempting guests to join in wondrous rituals where wine boosts sky-high the flavor of any dish. For those interested in combining thalassotherapy with a wholesome diet, the Spa Cuisine at Royal Mare Village creates well-designed menus made of entirely natural ingredients. During your journey to the flavors of the world, you can always gaze out at the huge expanse of the Cretan Sea from the veranda of the main restaurant, Symposium, indulging yourself in mouth-watering recipes. The delicacies on display at the lavish buffet, in their most imaginative versions and prepared with locally produced ingredients provide suggestions for magnificent, novel taste experiences.
A stop at the cool seaside Albatross Restaurant early every afternoon is the climax of your culinary travels. The enormous variety of flavours will tempt every palate and fill your mind with unforgettable maritime experiences. Enjoy your travels and make the most of them!

Hammam… A fascinating ritual
Sensation…
Water, sparkling and seductive, prepares the body for the ritual of purification.
Experience…
Soft scented mists. A deep relief in tranquil silence. A glance following the play of light in the glittering mosaics of the cupola, finding refuge in innocent nudity.
Rejuvenation…
Lustrous marble and warm, friendly care. The body experiences the magical ritual of being scrubbed and refreshed by the water from the magnificent marble bowls. The scented “ghassoul” mixed with rosewater envelops the senses.
Harmony…
From deep twilight to the shimmer of a charming smile, while having a relaxed conversation and welcoming refreshments. All in harmony…feeling, atmosphere and the human aspect.
