During the Roman rule of Crete, the caves housed tombs. In the 1960s, the by-then empty caves hosted hippies who used them to camp out in. Matala still has a slight counter-culture feel to it.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6051676/2227fa72-020a-4bb7-bb78-e0871f474345.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Beach of Matala 2 min walk \- 0.1 miles - Roman Caves 3 min walk \- 0.2 miles - Caves of Matala 5 min walk \- 0.3 miles - Red Beach 15 min walk \- 0.9 miles - Komos Beach 7 min drive \- 2.6 miles ### Getting around - Nikos Kazantzakis Airport (HER) 68 min drive ### Restaurants - Boho 1 min walk - Port Side Matala 2 min walk - Anemi 2 min walk - Taverna Sunset 3 min walk - Zafiria 1 min walk ## Frequently asked questions ### Is Absolute Matala pet-friendly? ### How much is parking? ### What time is check-in at Absolute Matala? ### What time is check-out at Absolute Matala? ### Where is Absolute Matala located? ## Have a question?
