We had an amazing time at the Knossos Beach hotel! The atmosphere was calm and perfect for our honeymoon. The staff went above and beyond to cater to our dietary preferences, and the food was consistently delicious. Our room had a stunning sea view, which made our stay even more special. However, the proximity to the airport meant we occasionally heard the planes, which was a minor distraction. Overall, this spot is excellent for relaxation and unwinding!

The hotel is visually stunning with its white architecture and vibrant flowers, offering a beautiful atmosphere for relaxation. While the quiet ambiance and friendly staff were appreciated, my experience with the all-inclusive package left much to be desired, as many items were not included. The hotel's maintenance needs improvement to match its appealing exterior, and the dining options should expand to enhance the overall experience.
