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.

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.

Great
Residence was great, very romantic. Sadly we arrived after the winery was closed. Must call tenant ahead of time to schedule arrival. Only concern we had is that the power went out around 6am, which caused two blinding emergency light bars to illuminate the room. Power remained off until we left.
