Detailed Hotel Description
Travel with Aldemar and sample some of the most unique "flavours in the world" against the background of the Aegean Sea accompanied by the sounds of traditional Greek music. Savour the tastes of our gastronomic specialities in a luxurious atmosphere with top-quality service, surrounded by exceptional natural beauty. Come with us and explore traditional Greek summer tastes. Experience moments full of..."sea", on the beach, in a hospitable and fresh atmosphere.
The greatest land of the South, born from two oceans, lulled by the waves, raised by the winds and worshipped by the sun. At the place where nature has a hold over you, history’s traces enchant and myths are still alive, there is a small settlement promising the greatest summer delights.
Scattered over a Lilliputian headland abandoned to the tender embrace of the sea and gently surrounded by the horizon, the “royal villas” are draped in earthly Minoan colors, cooled in the breeze from the lush green gardens and gracefully reflected in the clear waters of the swimming pools surrounding them.
Here, beauty is everywhere; in the beautiful indoor areas and on the verandas with enchanting vistas. It lives right here, in your ideal sanctuary. You can retreat to the land's end or, if you are in for action, find yourself amidst a discreet cosmopolitan center. Savor the pleasures of summer by the sea, revive yourselves at the well-known nearby thalassotherapy center, experience the excitement of sports and yield to the imaginative delights of our famous local cuisine.
Plot your great escape. Visit the luxury arc you dreamt of. Knossos Royal Villas awaits you.

At the peninsula where Knossos Royal Villas stands, affluence, taste and variety transform your dining table into an enormous taste palette. You can put together a beautiful meal or you may just as well create the perfect setting for a meal with the details and finishing touches of your liking.
With its attractively designed buffets, the Main Restaurant resourcefully mingles select tastes and recipes from all over the world, while children, in their own dining area, savor Aldy's delicacies. At mid day, set sail for the marinated, crispy dishes and tasty homemade recipes at the seaside restaurant. When evening comes, the cuisine at Artemis Taverna slips into its traditional attire and presents afresh the values of Greek gourmet. Like the score of a miniature marine symphony performed at Fontana Amorosa, clams in basil sauce, fresh juicy fish and Cretan aromatic essences blend perfectly together in original recipes.
Amidst thematic evenings full of surprises and irresistibly attractive, mouth-watering morning meals bathed in light and set against a background of the blue of the sea...holidays take on a merry, summer tempo. Just let your appetite show...and we will put into every single bite our extensive know-how, total commitment, individual attention and inspiration.
