This place was phenomenal. It’s location is right in front of the beach and includes chairs and umbrellas. It seems to be a small family run business and they were all so kind and outgoing. It’s a short (less than 5 minute) and easy walk to the port restaurants and stores or can stay on beach front and eat there. If I ever get the opportunity to return to Crete, I would definitely be staying at this place.

Beautifully appointed, sea view well worth it

Fabulous - we had a sea-view room and the view from the balcony was really lovely. Loved sitting there, looking out to sea, enjoying the sunset. Room beautifully, if simply, appointed, very comfortable for a great night's sleep with the screen door allowing us to listen to the sea all night. Small breakfast buffet, but freshly cooked food was spot-on, thick Greek yoghurt with fresh or dried fruit, fresh orange juice, pastries - fabulous, and set us up for the day as we sat looking out over the coastline and the sea.

This family who runs the property goes the extra mile to keep everything clean in your room and around the entire property. They their own parking area just behind which is nice if you have a car as parking is a problem in the area. Its right across the street from a nice beach and they have their own beds and umbrellas if you so choose. The rooms are huge and we had a usable kitchen. The nicest part is the friendly and kind family and the best breakfasts we've had in 3 weeks in Greece. I highly recommend this little gem.

Peaceful hotel with beautiful sea views and staff!

Maria and family are so friendly and accommodating. We had great communication prior to arrival and were greeted by Maria on arrival. Maria gave us great recommendations for restaurants and explained the amenities of the hotel. The beds were comfortable and rooms are very spacious. The shower had great pressure and the partial sea view from our private balcony was exceptional especially during sunset. There is a lovely 2nd floor terrace to enjoy the sea view and is where you will eat the delicious breakfast in the morning. We wish we had spent more time at the hotel and would definitely stay here again if we are able to return to this slice of heaven.
