Located on its own private fragrant territory, together with the Aldemar Knossos Royal hotel. The territory is not large, consisting of 40 villas, but enough for privacy, peace and quiet! It is immediately noticeable that every flower and bush is supervised here, everything is perfectly clean, you personally feel the care and increased attention of the staff. It is very nice. The rooms are just fabulous! Decorated in warm sunny colors. Very comfortable, bed linen and a bed from which you do not want to get up. Bath accessories (robes, slippers) and Olivia natural cosmetics based on olive oil pleased the soul and body! It is insanely nice to wake up to the sound of the surf, and you can really hear it, since our villa ARIADNE1 was close to the shore! Own private pool with sea water, where you can swim whenever you want, and most importantly, if there are waves on the sea! Separate breakfasts in the Villas restaurant right on the beach with panoramic sea views - shocked! Exceptional service, sensitive attention to each guest leaves no one indifferent! The atmosphere of complete relaxation and detachment from everyday life! After drinking a glass of champagne, all problematic thoughts (if any before) go away on their own. Everything is very refined and tasty, and not least this restaurant is open until 11:00. By prior reservation, you can rent your own tent (lounger bed) for 2 persons with canopies, as well as light snacks and drinks! It's very romantic and beautiful! Being here you want to relax, but it is better to live here forever! I left with tears like never before. I will return to this hotel as soon as possible!

We rested in Aldemar Royal Villas from 8 to 18 September 2013 with my husband and two daughters. We flew by Aeroflot very early. But, not having time to fill in the Questionnaires at the reception, they heard their names. We were invited to have breakfast in a restaurant, where we were taken by car. A restaurant on the seashore, with snow-white tablecloths and dishes, cool champagne with strawberries, the freshest red fish and delicious Greek coffee (not to mention freshly squeezed juices) immediately brought us to our senses after the flight.

We rested in Aldemar Royal Villas from 8 to 18 September 2013 with my husband and two daughters.
We flew by Aeroflot very early. But, not having time to fill in the Questionnaires at the reception, they heard their names. We were invited to have breakfast in a restaurant, where we were taken by car. A restaurant on the seashore, with snow-white tablecloths and dishes, cool champagne with strawberries, the freshest red fish and delicious Greek coffee (not to mention freshly squeezed juices) immediately brought us to our senses after the flight. I really liked the service by the restaurant waiters - everything is clear and fast, and at the same time - unobtrusively!
Immediately after breakfast, we were settled in the IDA8 room. When buying a tour, they asked for the 1st floor to have access to the pool, but they gave us the 2nd floor, which we did not regret at all! Did the sea view do the trick?
In the room - fruits, dried fruits, wine, water, coffee, tea, cream. And also - chocolate for the night : -) What else do you need for a comfortable stay? Under the window - a swimming pool for several villas, with sea water. Well, it’s time to probably repair the pool a little, to be honest…
We spent some time in the pool, as the sea is SUPER!! ! In calm weather we had a great swim, with and without masks, in a small storm we jumped on the waves. There are boulders - but the water is clear and you can see them, you can completely painlessly get around! We didn't buy any special shoes. Sunbeds - no problem, we didn’t even bother with occupying them - they were always free.
There were ants in the room, complained about the decision, it was gone. Thanks to Christina, who helped us in solving such trifling questions?
Cleaning is good, they didn’t crawl under the beds with cotton buds, they didn’t look for unwashed places...
The territory of the hotel is huge, well-groomed, beautiful….
Separately, I would like to mention the Chef - Petros! His charisma knows no bounds! Visited his culinary master classes twice - great shows! With humor, with virtuoso performance of dishes!
In the restaurant - he is the OWNER! Meet guests, recommend a "dish of the day"? The cuisine is magnificent: there was a rabbit and a lamb and a Peking duck and seafood, not to mention other tasty treats!
Kids club - our youngest daughter (4.5 years old) was eager to go there! Saw great kids clubs in Rixos, Pegasos, but she didn't stay there for long. And then - she was ready to run there alone through the entire hotel and for the whole day!
A huge thank you to the girls from the kids club, smart girls!
The final chord in our luxurious vacation was a free extension of the room until 17-00.
We believe that we will return to Aldemar with pleasure, we miss you, Aldemar! Thanks!! !

Just returned from Crete, so the impressions are quite fresh. Went with 3 families with small children. We lived in villas Ida and Pasifae. The ticket included junior suites. We ate according to the exclusive all inclusive program. First about the good: - the territory is large, green (as for Crete), a good small pebble beach with a convenient entry into the sea - the food is excellent, a huge selection of meat (rabbit, lamb, pork, fish, turkey, chicken, seafood), fresh juices, ice cream, an abundance of fruits.

- the territory is large, green (as for Crete), a good small pebble beach with a convenient entry into the sea
- the food is excellent, a huge selection of meat (rabbit, lamb, pork, fish, turkey, chicken, seafood), fresh juices, ice cream, an abundance of fruits. Food was constantly brought up, regardless of whether the reception time was running out or not.
- any alcohol was poured without sparing and not counting the amount (whiskey, gin, rum, beer, cocktails at any time), breakfast is always champagne
- every day a plate of fresh fruit was brought to the room.
- service in restaurants and bars is very fast, delicate, courteous.
- rooms are spacious, 45 kV. M. With furnished terraces. We had a two-room apartment in general (they gave it at no extra charge, since I demanded that there were no steps to the room, so that it was possible to call in with a stroller). Cleaning, change of linen and towels every day.
- the pools of the villas are warm enough, clean, the water is salty
- the staff consists of Russians and some Russian-speaking Greeks. So there were no problems in communication.
- well done animators, constantly organized some kind of entertainment.
Of the paid only water activities: scooters, diving, parasailing, etc. But since the Russians are running this business, they make good discounts for their own.
In general, we served as a VIP. With just all inc And there is nothing to compare.
By the way, there are a lot of French people in the hotel, but we failed to notice a better attitude towards them than towards Russians.
Now about weekdays : -)
- minibars in the rooms were supposed to be filled with soft drinks free of charge every day, but they were filled only on the day of departure. They said that they have not yet established a room service, they do not have time.
- a day later, bleach was poured into the pools, it was difficult to swim until 11.00, it ate out the eyes. Then it's really okay.
- well, the most interesting: every evening, returning to the room, we met 1-2 huge cockroaches the size of a finger battery!!! ! They complained at the reception, an aunt came with a simple Reid, splashed a couple of times and that's it. Cockroaches are natural to the bulb. True, this problem was only in our room.
Although these unpleasant little things did not spoil the impression
. My friends told me that when you go to Greece, you can’t count on fast service, these Greeks are very lazy and unhurried. Nothing like that, on the contrary, in our hotel the staff was worn and carried out the wishes like scalded. In general, if you ask me if I would go there again, I will answer: YES
