With panoramic sea views, beautifully landscaped gardens, shimmering pools, and direct access to a private sandy beach, Royal Mare sets the stage for an unforgettable adult tennis holiday on the island of Crete.
On court, you’ll enjoy playing on top-quality real red clay courts - (there aren't many real clay courts left in Europe)! The view from the court centre down to the sea is absolutely stunning.
When you’re not playing tennis, take time to unwind at the resort’s exceptional Thalasso Spa, which has been rated highly. From revitalising treatments and hydrotherapy to its serene relaxation areas, it's the perfect place to recharge body and mind after a day on court.
If you're keen to explore, the vibrant seaside town of Cherssonisos is just a 10-minute drive away. Wander its charming streets, enjoy a glass of local wine at a traditional taverna, or soak up the lively atmosphere with a night out along the waterfront.
The à la carte restaurants at Royal Mare are a real highlight, offering delicious, high-quality dining, while the buffet can feel a little limited by comparison.

Bars
Whether you're unwinding after a tennis session or enjoying a laid-back evening with friends, Royal Mare offers a variety of stylish bars to suit every mood.
The elegant Minos Main Bar provides a calm, refined atmosphere perfect for a post tennis cocktail, an early evening glass of wine, or a classic cocktail prepared just the way you like it.
For something more relaxed and sunny, head to the Kalypso Pool Bar, where you can sip colourful cocktails, mocktails, and chilled drinks while lounging poolside in the Cretan sunshine.
Down by the sea, the Horizon Beach Bar lets you enjoy your favourite drinks with your feet in the sand. With light snacks and cool refreshments available throughout the day, it’s the perfect spot to soak up the views between tennis sessions or after a swim.
