Really recommend this spot — was very relaxing and private :)"

I really like this hotel, I always stay there when I come to Ierapetra, the service is very good, the location is absolutely the best place in Ierapetra, there are shops nearby, the bus station is nearby, the only thing I don't like this year is the hotel app itself, what happened to you, why is my app crashing, there is no way to review my order, there is no way to do anything, don't order anything else, book an apartment, well, I couldn't book an apartment in Krakow, I couldn't see my nights,...

Friendly helpful staff. Apartment was a very good size with good equipped appliances including a washing machine. Spotlessly clean and well looked after. Furnished to a very high standard. Bonus of having car parking.

Stayed here with the family to celebrate a 70th birthday. From checking in to checking out we couldn't fault the Minos Beach Art Hotel. All the on site facilities you could want and a great location just a 15 minute walk from the centre of Agios with some of the best Tavernas in town only 5 minutes away. Lots of space and privacy in the resort with bungalows scattered in the well tended gardens. An upgrade to a 2 bedroom bungalow with private pool and sea view was a very welcome surprise! Most...

A lovely place right next to the sea. Good value for money
We hired a car to see the surrounding area and nearby mountains.
Would go again without hesitation

Hosts can’t do enough for you, setting is astonishingly beautiful and pictures or words won’t do it justice. The food is genuine Greek cuisine cooked and sourced by locals and very fairly priced. The breakfast consisted of 4 courses of delicious food. You would expect to pay 5 times what they ask for and still feel fairly charged. Very kind and accommodating owners, who are genuinely friendly. The rooms are clean while rustically decorating, they have everything you need and more. There is a...

The room was very clean and tidy, with an air condition that really helped sleep with comfort during our stay with 30 degrees C nights. The view from the balcony was outstanding over the lake Voulismeni and the location of the hotel is right at the heart of Agios Nikolaos with direct access to the pedestrianised street and amenities right at your doorstep. The staff was very friendly and made their best to help us with any questions. The discount bonus at the nearby excellent Cafe du Lac was...

The best area to stay in Achlia is directly along the beachfront, as this small village is primarily defined by its picturesque bay.
The main area of Achlia is concentrated around its horseshoe-shaped bay, featuring a lovely pebble beach with crystal-clear waters. There are a few tavernas and cafes dotted along the beach road and just behind it, providing easy access to dining and refreshments. The village is small and easily walkable, with accommodation options typically offering direct or very close access to the sea.
Couples looking for a relaxing escape will find this area ideal. The focus here is on the natural beauty of the bay, swimming, and enjoying meals with sea views. It's a tranquil spot, superb for unwinding without the distractions of a bustling town.
For families, staying near the beach is also highly convenient. Children can easily access the water, and parents can relax knowing amenities and dining are just a short stroll away.
When is the best time to go to Achlia?
The best time to visit Achlia is during the shoulder seasons of May, June, September, and early October.
These months offer pleasant weather with warm temperatures and plenty of sunshine, superb for enjoying the beaches and outdoor activities without the intense heat and larger crowds of the peak summer months (July and August). The sea is also warm enough for swimming during these periods.
For travellers looking for a more relaxed experience, perhaps a romantic getaway, late May or early June is ideal. The landscape is still lush from the spring rains, and the tourist season is just beginning, meaning you'll find a tranquil atmosphere at the beaches and tavernas.
Families often find September to be a great time to visit. The peak summer crowds have thinned out, but the weather remains lovely and warm, and the sea is still superb for swimming.
