Company information
When you book a house, managed by ROYAL Vacation Rentals, you’re getting more than a holiday home. You’re getting professional, personalised service you can count on.
We are not a travel agency, where you book and travel as a stranger among strangers.
Giorgos, your host is only a phone call or message away to help you check in and out of the house, answer any questions you might have and of course assist you on any matter, related not only to your stay at our place but to the whole of your vacation.
We’re here for you, throughout your entire vacation - from providing Area & Home guides, to local staff, caring for you and your holiday home.
Every ROYAL vacation rental meets the highest standards of cleanliness, safety and comfort, so you can fully enjoy your time with your family and friends.

Neighbourhood information
Platia Peramata is a small village located 69km south of Heraklion, 7km east of Kali Limenes and 7km west of Lendas. The disctance from the International Airport is 1hr 12min, just like Heraklion town centre.
The settlement is located at the exit of a small low valley crossing the wild Asterousia Mountains, which starts from the village Antiskari and ends in settlement. The fertile valley is used for growing early vegetables in greenhouses such as tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, etc., since the temperature here is always high.
In the area, there are several adjacent bays, where beautiful and tranquil beaches are formed. On these beaches you will mostly see locals. In front of the small settlement, there is the small beach of Platia Peramata with fine pebbles, which is mainly used for tying the boats of the residents. The beach is not very well organized, but there are a few tavernas, rooms and a DIVING SCHOOL. Moreover, along the beach there are several tamarisk trees, which are usually used for camping. There is another pebbly beach on the east side of the settlement, East Platia Peramata, not prefered by swimmers.
A bit further on to the East there is the beach Psili Ammos (1.3km) which is well organised for swimmers, to include easy access for people with mobility needs.
