Views of the Kato Zacros bay are great from any of the various terraces and gardens surrounding the rooms/apartments. We loved it there but perhaps not best suited for young families since there was no direct access to the beach (short drive/walk away). We didn't go there for sea views but it is a marvellous spot. Great access to the "Gorge of the Dead" for those who want a bit of hiking experience. Would recommend it to anyone looking for something a little different. Easy access to one of the famous ancient sites of Crete was a bonus for us. ##### John Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marta 28 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Beautifule place with the outstanding view, very clean , the owners pay attention to every single detail.

Picking up breakfast with freshly baked goods at the reception and eating on our veranda was a true delight. Perhaps we enjoyed it so much more because it was so far away. ##### Karin Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeremy 16 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Excellent stay This is a wonderful boutique resort. It is located on a gorgeous part of Crete with easy access to beaches, hiking, and restaurants. There are superb details throughout the villas and the grounds with a lot of unique artwork and gorgeous landscaping. There also happened to be lots of fresh figs while we were there as an extra bonus. Included breakfast was great and plentiful and all the staff were friendly. I give this stay a 9.9 out of 10\. The one thing they can improve on is having more pillow options as the pillows we had were very thick and firm, which I'm sure work for some people. ##### Jeremy Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### angela 11 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Bellissimo posto ...legna e pietra la fanno da padrona. vista bellissima dalle tante terrazze piene di fiori.

Mon épouse et moi avons découvert cet hôtel paradisiaque à l'occasion de vacances à Kato Zakros. La résidence hôtelière est récente, bien conçue, originale, et très bien située, en léger surplomb d'une plage. L'endroit n'est pas envahi de constructions ni de touristes. Les gérants, le père et son fils, ainsi que leurs personnels sont TRES courtois, accueillants et sympathiques. Le petit-déjeuner est copieux, et la configuration des lieux permet de profiter du paysage et de la nature : terrasses ombragées, salon d'été, jardins aménagés, etc.... A proximité de l'hôtel se trouvent le site minoen de Kato Zakros et le débouché des célèbres " Gorges de la Mort ", qui constituent une belle randonnée pédestre. Les vacanciers pourront aussi profiter de l'excellente auberge " Akrogiali" , dont la cuisine crétoise est excellente. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/055742D1D70AEE9A2ECEE0ACE267C18D21B9243A1716791141869.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/C80F333433705071F08B171AE7863B73C5A5FD7F1716791142647.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/DE2CC7102D11DF8A1407856F36C13B8E60DD5E591716791142731.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6C14DD4BF30AC78F2474168E83E0EBD70C097E301716791143421.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Benoit Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michele 22 Sept 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### La magia di “Terra Minoica” a Kato Zacros.

Grande dispiacere andarsene!!! ##### Michele Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### brigitte 19 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Un charme fou Nous avons adoré les 2 nuits dans notre studio. La décoration est sympa, le calme olympien, le petit-déjeuner à emporter sur sa terrasse bien mieux qu’une salle commune. Stella, la propriétaire, est charmante ##### brigitte Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joan, New Mexico 9 Nov 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities Terra Minoika is as close to paradise as I have ever come. The villas are as comfortable as they are beautiful, and Stella is an extraordinarily thoughtful host providing the best advice on hiking and day trips as well as delightful breakfasts to be enjoyed in one's own perfectly appointed dining area or on one's very private patio overlooking the Aegean. She and her husband (a remarkable sculpture) have transformed the place into a work of art. And it is nestled at the foot of the Gorge of the Dead which ends at the ruins of a Minoan palace on the edge of the sea. This was my second visit, and I hope to be back in a year or two for an even longer stay. ##### Joan Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marina 23 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Καταπληκτικό! Καταπληκτικά δωμάτια, θέα, καθαριότητα. Ευγενέστατοι και εξυπηρετικοί. ##### Marina Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joan, taos, nm 24 Nov 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful studio with extraordinary charm Our studio had everything a guest could want—from extra- thick towels to a comfortable writing desk— even an outdoor line for hanging out beach towels etc. The breakfasts were ample and luscious with organic Greek yogurt and honey to die for. And the owner made special arrangements for us to to discover the sites near this wonderfully relaxed coastal village We want to return here next year! ##### Joan Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### nathalie 1 Nov 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Belle villa très bien aménagée Très bon accueil de Stella ; villa très bien aménagée, au calme, avec une belle vue et terrasse (nous avions une villa supérieure en étage). Les abords des villas sont fleuris et originaux. Séjour très agréable à proximité du village qui offre plusieurs possibilités de restauration... ##### nathalie ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bertrand 8 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Bertrand Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bayard 17 Sept 2023 ##### Bayard Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Joseph 30 May 2023 ##### Joseph Stayed 6 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christian 11 May 2022 ##### Christian Stayed 2 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christian 11 Oct 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Christian Stayed 1 night in Oct 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Walter 9 Jun 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Walter Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 10 Oct 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Begeti Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Begeti-Bay.h10295324.Hotel-Information) > > [Minos Ambassador - Adults only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Minos-Ambassador.h45826210.Hotel-Information) > > [Arminda Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Arminda-Hotel-Spa.h10630918.Hotel-Information) > > [Nana Princess Suites, Villas & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Nana-Princess-Suites.h19806167.Hotel-Information) > > [Crete Golf Club Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Crete-Golf-Club-Hotel.h22748806.Hotel-Information) > > [Koni Village Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Koni-Village-All-Inclusive.h8415383.Hotel-Information) > > [Enorme Santanna Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ierapetra-Hotels-Enorme-Santanna-Beach.h44438252.Hotel-Information) > > [Aquila Atlantis Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Heraklion-Hotels-Aquila-Atlantis-Hotel.h67282.Hotel-Information) > > [Free Breakfast at villa with Outdoor & Indoor Pool, Hot Tub, Home Cinema](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Free-Breakfast-At-Villa-With-Outdoor-Indoor-Pool.h27558930.Hotel-Information) > > [Kiani Beach Resort Family](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chania-Hotels-Kiani-Beach-Resort-Family-All-Inclusive.h3998357.Hotel-Information) > > [Atlantis Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Atlantis-Beach-Hotel.h12465368.Hotel-Information) > > [Moonlight Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Moonlight-Hotel.h19477661.Hotel-Information) > > [Anastasia Hotel Stalis ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Anastasia-Hotel-Stalis.h1368515.Hotel-Information) > > [Kedrissos Hotel Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chania-Hotels-Kedrissos-Hotel-Apartments.h16414878.Hotel-Information) > > [Apollonia Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malevizi-Hotels-Apollonia-Beach-Resort-Spa.h1522111.Hotel-Information) > > [Amirandes, A Grecotel Resort to Live](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Amirandes-Grecotel-Boutique-Resort.h1862564.Hotel-Information) > > [Bio Suites Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Bio-Suites-Hotel.h1522055.Hotel-Information) > > [Numo Ierapetra Beach Resort Crete, Curio Collection Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ierapetra-Hotels-NUMO-Ierapetra-Beach-Resort.h7782201.Hotel-Information) > > [Village Heights Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Village-Heights-Resort.h14931312.Hotel-Information) > > [Domes Zeen Chania, a Luxury Collection Resort, Crete](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chania-Hotels-Domes-Zeen-Chania.h25749963.Hotel-Information) > > [Ikones Seafront Luxury Suites - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Ikones-Seafront-Luxury-Suites-Adults-Only.h31709128.Hotel-Information) > > [The City Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-The-City-Hotel-Suites.h36768747.Hotel-Information) > > [Theartemis Palace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Theartemis-Palace.h2336425.Hotel-Information) > > [Petra Mare - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ierapetra-Hotels-Petra-Mare-All-Inclusive.h2144254.Hotel-Information) > > [Veneziano Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Heraklion-Hotels-Veneziano-Boutique-Hotel.h18108299.Hotel-Information) > > [Semiramis Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Semiramis-Village.h10623973.Hotel-Information) > > [Macaris Suites and SPA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Macaris-Suites-And-SPA.h1099883.Hotel-Information) > > [Aquila Porto Rethymno](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Aquila-Porto-Rethymno.h1636850.Hotel-Information) > > [Thalassa Boutique Hotel - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Thalassa-Boutique-Hotel-Adults-Only.h22137467.Hotel-Information) ---
