I had the most amazing stay with my husband in July. The lovely ladies who run the hotel go above and beyond to make your stay as comfortable and memorable as possible. Sougia is very remote, quiet and has a "disconnected" feeling, which is amazing if you want to really unplug and relax, don't come here expecting to party! The restaurants at the beach serve the most delicious food I had in Crete, and the hotel restaurant is equally yum. The views are breathtaking, and it is worth coming for the views alone. This is a really quiet place and I think it's important any travellers come with that expectation to avoid any disappointmemts :). The only thing I didn't love was the drive from Chania, I am not a very confident driver and the roads are very windy, but if I managed I thibj anyone can manage (just drive slowly and move out of the way for any impatient drivers). Thank you so much to the whole team for being so king and welcoming ❤️

We had a wonderful stay at Monastery Estate Mountain Retreat. The villa was relatively small, but had everything we needed, and was sufficiently private (a note: it wasn’t very easy to understand the difference between categories that have a private pool - a few more description points or photos might be helpful). The pool terrace was well thought through. We’ve had two meals at the hotel, dinner and breakfast, and found both very tasty (I can highly recommend Cretan breakfast). We have also used spa facilities (sauna and steam bath) and, while the overall experience was relaxing, there are three improvement points: sauna seemed to heat up only on the top benches while having cool air on the bottom bench; the benches in the steam bath were cold; there was a bit of unpleasant smell in the spa area. The staff of the hotel was very attentive and helpful, and very punctual in room service. The last, but very important point: we had managed to have an unforgettable early morning walk in the nearby Lissos gorge and a fantastic swim in Paralia Lissos beach, that knowing about these “things to do”, we’d stay longer in the hotel, for, at least, 2-3 nights. Overall very positive experience - we recommend!

5 stars for the Monastery collection!
Amazing service and beautiful hotel quietly nestled in the mountains. The breakfast was divine and such a great variety. Our room came with a jetted tub on the patio and it filled quickly with hot water, nice way to relax. We ended up staying at another monastery collection in Chania the next night we loved out stay so much.

Crete mountain escape
Fantastic new hotel. The suites are great and loved the private pool. There were some downsides - not the greatest sound insulation between rooms, minimal privacy at your outdoor pool and the lack of breakfast. The last one we were aware of, but it would be a more luxury experience if they brought it back. They said it was because of covid-19, understandable, but all other hotels we stayed in Crete still offered breakfast. So seemed a bit strange. Great spot to escape for a few days to see a very different side of Crete.

The hotel and its rooms are stunning! Perfect place to relax with beautiful views on the mountains. The staff is very kind and will arrange anything that will make your stay a great one! 5 minutes away by car from the small village of Sougia and its beach, which offers a few great options to have lunch or dinner.

Relaxing design rooms boutique mountain stay
Splendid design rooms in a nice and calm mountain region. Great service and nearby Sougia beach (5-10mins by car) and a local restaurant in the village. Only little downside is - depending on your neighbours, that you literally hear every single word or noise of them :)
