Knossos Beach Bungalows & Suites

With a strong Aegean element in its architecture, the 4-star hotel Knossos Beach is located very near Heraklion and just 10 minutes away from the airport. It is a beautiful place, perfect for peace and quiet, and for family holidays. Its location is also quite convenient as it is in the middle of the island.

Built like a Cretan village, the accommodation is spread across a large area. All the bungalows and suites are detached, which gives guaranteed privacy. The verandas and gardens are perfect for relaxing while sipping your drink at sunset.

The mini club is ideal for your children. All the pools are salt water. The Swell restaurant operates on an a la carte basis and is a popular choice among locals. The menu and creativity of the chef will not go unnoticed.

Families should know

Because of its proximity to the airport, you will definitely notice the noise of the planes taking off/ landing. At first the noise might seem annoying but after the first day or so you will get used to it
At the reception of the Swell restaurant and by the beach, there is a free Wi-Fi connection. In all remaining areas, you have to pay for internet access
You need to reserve the sunbeds at the beach (additional cost)
Moving around with buggies is challenging due to the stairs from the rooms to the beach
The all inclusive package might seem a bit inadequate due to its limited variety
Although the family rooms have recently been refurbished, they are located further away from the beach
The village of Kokkini that is located nearby offers a variety of food and drink options; however, it is by no means picturesque
The standard rooms need refurbishment
The rooms next to the pool are the noisiest
