Was nice many families. Hotel is nicer to the all inclusive guests. Also I registered 3 complaints with the front desk and nothing was done to correct it. After I complained they said they would get back to me via phone / email within 2 days has been over 10 days and no one has contacted me. Also let me add I called to follow up and got the same line someone will be in touch. My main issue was the ants invading my room through cracks in the baseboards and tile in the bathroom area.

Warm, friendly welcome. This luxury hotel caters to everyone, even our furry babies. It has an excellent day spa, similar to or even better than Crown Day Spa in Melbourne. Breakfast is included. There are two swimming pools, a gym, and sunbeds on a private beach. Amazing ocean views and close to town. Highly recommended for families and couples but perhaps not the first option for solo travellers.

Richard, Pittsburgh

Travelled with family
Liked: Amenities
Pros: Nice people and kind staff. The location is very quiet (although perhaps a little too quiet). The surroundings are absolutely beautiful. Cons: On our first night, we encountered four massive cockroaches in the room. These insects were about the size of my thumb and were flying. One even came close to climbing on my wife’s head during the night. We promptly requested another room, which meant that at 1 a.m. on our first night, we had to call and get a different room. So, after unpacking, we had to pack everything back up, only to unpack again. It was a disappointing start to our stay. However, once we were in the new room, we didn’t encounter any more roaches. Unfortunately, we overheard someone in another room going through a similar experience. General: This resort is not the place to stay if you’re looking for nightlife. However, it’s conveniently located (just a 10-minute drive) to some nice outdoor beach bars and has a beautiful view of the private beach and water.

The hotel is very well situated on the beach and has two very good restaurants. The highlight for us all were the charming staff and we enjoyed our few days very much. You do get used to planes flying quite low overhead. The hotel is freshly painted and there is a gym and a well appointed spa.

This property left nothing to desire. The room we had was clean, quiet and perfectly situated facing the beach. There was a full wall of a window to view a beautiful coastline with no obstruction at all. The staff was very friendly and helpful at turn of our stay. I just wish we had more time to stay longer.

Incredible Stay at an Affordable Paradise. Wow!
Incredible stay at Knossos Beach Hotel and Spa - 10/10. We felt very cared for! Every room was max 3 min from the crystal clear warm water, cabanas and beach chairs with umbrellas on the smooth sand beach. I thought we would want to do many things in Greece only to discover this hotel and beach was paradise - so I never left! Superb staff - every one, tasty cocktails on the beach, warm water exterior pool (we never used because the ocean was soft and warm without dangerous waves!). Delicious food, good wine selection. Paradise. And an affordable paradise!!
