Perfect location at the entrance to the town. Right next to a taverna coffee shop. Right in front of the beach. Easy to walk to all the tavernas and return to a quieter side in the evening. Lovely place.

Great location, clean and nice staff.

Great location, clean, family run hotel. Thoughtful details such as blankets, not common in smaller hotels we've stayed at in Greece. Room had a refrigerator, hot plate, electric tea kettle and kitchen ware. Restaurant right next door and a market next to that. Walking distance to evening dining as well. We would stay here again.

Great Option!

The location is excellent. The beach is literally right across the street (chairs/umbrellas/toilet/showers). The family who run this small hotel are wonderfully nice and always available if you need anything. The bed was a bit firm, but nothing terrible for a couple nights rest and the room was very clean. The restaurant next door is also family owned and they have great food options if you want something close and quick. Overall, you cannot beat the location for the price in my opinion.

Perfect place to stay

Best Crete has to offer. Manos was a super host. Perfect waterside location, view A+, steps away from all amenities, great swimming and restaurants. This hotel was well worth every penny. Had a perfect little kitchenette, all the things you need, comfy bed, lovely deck with sea view!!!!

Great Beach view Rooms

The owner thought we had booked a mountain view but we could prove it was a beach view so we agreed 6 beach and 1 mountain. Great beach view rooms( 3 of) but rear subject to traffic noise and front late night revellers. On edge of resort and ideally placed. Owner Manolis (little English) very helpful. Resort getting build up but still has charm and no jet skis etc. Great walks and good if sometimes windy beach. Stayed 1st week June 14.

lovely place at an oaffordable price

The owner and her father were very friendly and helpful. The room was a little too small for 1 week holiday and the bathroom could be more modern but all in all a must, especially considering the price. We had a slightly more expensive room with balcony on the first floor, facing the sea. The weather was beautiful and very pleasant for the end of October. On the other side of the street (on the corner) there is the possibility to get lunch and diner at a very democratic price. Recommended..
