A truly unique experience, it felt like we were staying at a friend’s place rather than at a hotel. Very homey and our room had a beautiful view. The restaurant was charming, with delicious food and we even had a group of excellent musicians with authentic Greek dancers in costume. Anther bonus - it was a 15 minu LP te drive to the airport. A great stay! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/86F6E4008B1096C56F695A1AF7A449AA3182242B1728053203574.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/053862FFD89EFB7AE460F5AAE9927E4BB3EA490C1728053202425.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/305BF19E8797B91508CDC79DD44B433264946ECB1728053203020.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1E22EE458A6CA3872942D7ADBDC46120251488301728053203303.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jan Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Debra 11 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The property was like none other!

Terrific views down to bay and up to fabulous mountains. Nice outdoor restaurant terrace. Delicious wholesome Cretan food menu for both breakfast and dinner. Rooms are charming with balcony terraces and air conditioning. However, the only negative, the beds and mattresses feel like they have been unchanged for thirty years and are especially uncomfortable. Time for the management to reinvest as for me it was the only serious negative criticism. ##### Stephen Stayed 1 night in Jul 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Roger 29 Sept 2023 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Not well maintained ##### Roger Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Cheryl 7 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Room comfort The concept is charming and that is what led us here. This is a traditional village with lots of little houses and nooks and crannies and tiny garden spaces, transformed into a complex of rooms. The positive: there is a very nice terrace where one can sit, have breakfast and order a dinner. And the staff are very friendly. The negative: the rooms are uncomfortable and many things are broken. My shower attachment was broken so the head could not be affixed to the wall. The shower is miniscule and the flimsy plastic curtain does not prevent water from flooding out. The mattresses are more like thin mats - my colleague had a backache the next morning. The blanket was thin for the spring temperatures and the spare blanket and quilt in the closet did not appear to be clean. The WIFI only works in selected public areas. The location is remote so it's a long drive to anywhere. The many irregular stairs going to many levels in many directions are dangerous for older people and children and completely unsuited for the handicapped. I believe this location is best suited for local group events not requiring an overnight stay - there was a baptism while we were there. A corporate retreat could work as there are many spaces for breakout groups etc., but that would require functioning internet site-wide. The decor inside the rooms needs a cosmetic upgrade - aims for rustic but just looks sad. ##### Cheryl Stayed 4 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Timo Nicolas 13 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Unser Aufenthalt in diesem wunderbaren Hotel auf Kreta war einfach unvergesslich! Das Hotel liegt in einer traumhaften, ruhigen Lage in den Bergen, umgeben von spektakulären Ausblicken und der friedlichen Natur. Diese Kulisse bietet eine perfekte Auszeit vom hektischen Alltag und lädt zur Entspannung ein. Besonders hervorheben möchten wir das unglaublich freundliche Personal. Jeder Mitarbeiter war stets hilfsbereit, zuvorkommend und hat unseren Aufenthalt noch angenehmer gemacht. Man spürt die herzliche Atmosphäre, die das Team schafft, und das trägt enorm zu einem rundum positiven Erlebnis bei. Das Essen war ebenfalls ein Highlight. Die Auswahl war äußerst reichhaltig und jede Mahlzeit war ein Genuss. Viele traditionelle kretische Spezialitäten - jeden Tag etwas anderes - alles war frisch zubereitet und einfach köstlich. Der Pool des Hotels war riesig und bot ausreichend Platz zum Schwimmen und Entspannen. Wir haben die Zeit am Pool sehr genossen und konnten uns wunderbar erholen. Insgesamt haben wir unseren Aufenthalt in diesem Hotel sehr genossen. Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt und sind begeistert von der Kombination aus atemberaubender Natur, hervorragendem Service und köstlichem Essen. Wir können es kaum erwarten, wiederzukommen! ##### Timo Nicolas Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Richard 1 Sept 2025 Liked: Staff & service Le lieu atypique est super, la piscine, la terrasse pour le petit déjeuner, incroyable ! Les chambres sont grandes, spacieuses avec balcon. Le bémol est sur la literie de qualité moyenne et la propreté des chambres qui n'est pas au rendez-vous. De plus, c'est la première fois que j'ai le montant de la taxe de séjour aussi haut (10€/pers et par jours) à la fin de voyage. Un gros plus pour le cadre très beau, la piscine, et le petit musée. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a432fbde-9fc1-4ade-b472-08109eadeb19-1756724741733.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f9c898a3-f536-4696-b163-0eaf89833e52-1756724741469.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6ca41f63-cbfb-4d33-8a4e-9fe2e5b9d710-1756724739404.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Richard Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### ROBERTO 25 Aug 2025 ##### ROBERTO Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Eric 26 Jul 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Le logement ne correspondait pas du tout à ce qui était annoncé lors de la réservation était dans un état de saleté indescriptible ##### Eric Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sharon 19 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Sharon Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ivan 13 Jul 2025 ##### ivan Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### carolina 9 Jul 2025 Liked: Amenities posto magnifico all'esterno, splendida ricostruzione di un villaggio cretese, tranquillo, ottimo ristorante a bordo piscina: atmosfera bellissima.
