It exceeded our expectations . The room was beautiful and the view amazing. The welcome on arrival by the host, the friendliness of the service and especially the delicious breakfast in the courtyard under the trees completed the perfect picture. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will certainly return one day.

We arrived quite late at the accommodation and the hosts were present to receive us. The room was clean, comfortable, proper size. The breakfast was proper and kept was well fed and ready to start the day with energy! The main host, Stelios, was one of the friendliest I've ever met. He would hang with us on the terrace having some beers, some snacks (and of course some raki!), and just having a proper chat together. Definitely one of the best host-guest interactions we've ever had. The location was amazing, just around 5 minutes walk from the Matala center, so it was both handy and calm. Matala itself was a very nice small town, good food, good beaches, perfect to spend some quality time. Highly recommended and definitely we'll come back!

The apartment is located just outside of Matala center, which is even better to avid the confusion. Everything is brand new, with essential white spaces. A big plus is that there are a lot of beautiful plants and flowers all around. The private terrace is perfect for relaxing in the evening.

Matala is something different and when you there you just fell in love. Of course if you are looking for the crystal clear water, Matala is not the one, even though the surronding landscape is something beautiful. Nights in Matala can't be boring. There is always something to do and have fun. It is defenitley worth a visit.

Matala is one of those places you didn't know you needed to visit until you go.. and then never want to leave. A long, sandy beach, with beautiful clear water, Matala is big enough to have a wide selection of places to eat & shop and yet not be too big. And in Scala & George's Yard it has two very, VERY good restaurants.

The room was clean and relatively new looking.

The room was clean and relatively new looking. There is no wifi or tv in room. They have wifi at the bar and should be able to get it to rooms with routers but have not bothered. The bed was a disaster, it was hardest bed I have ever tried to sleep on. My wife and I both hardly slept and had sore back in the morning. We have been travelling for over 5 weeks had no problem with any other beds.

There is a great vibe at Matala that differs from the rest of Creta. The hippie feel is true. We caught live music the night we were there and it was the best moment. This along with the red beach - strongly recommend.

Matala is a tourist hot spot.

Matala is a tourist hot spot. So a lot of restaurants there, lot of tourist shops with souvenirs and a lot of people. The beach itself is not that big, but it was nice though. I mean it really depends on what you are looking for. I am more fond of less crowded and less touristy places, so perhaps next time I would look for something more matching my preferences. On the other hand there is nothing wrong about Matala at all. All the people there are very friendly. Really it depends on what you prefer...

Returning again, feeling at home from the moment of entering the door. Honest, caring family hotel with excellent quality facilities, but no unnecessary frills. Welcome genuinely warm. Rooms adequate, comfortable beds, effective bathrooms with good hot water, perfect wifi. Balcony with plenty of space to sit out. Perfect pool and pool area, nice pool bar with snacks. Easy 10 minute walk to Matala and its many good eating places, and beach. Bus stop at hotel entrance for wider exploration.

Everything!! The location and apartment were perfection in every way. Apartment was spotlessly clean and comfortable. Bed was exceptional. Could not ask for more. Right on the beach, but private with unspoilt views of the whole of Matala bay and the best place yo capture the sunset. Best place I've ever stayed in Crete! The owner was so welcoming and nice. I would go back in a heartbeat to stay here again.

The hotel is very conveniently located at the margin of Matala. You can reach the village and the beach in a 10 minutes walk. There is ample parking space and the neighbourhood is quite. The breakfast has a good variety: you can try many different types of food. The room has a nice little terrase.
