"Our second stay here. Good base for exploring western Crete. Costas and the team are great hosts and keep the hotel friendly, easy to use and clean. "
"Fantastic family run property with lovely hosts. Great apartment.
However if you have mobility issues there are lots of steps and it is up a gentle hill/slope.
Owners are lovely and helpful
I’d go back if it wasn’t for the pool area. I have mobility issues and could barely get around the pool due to the sun beds and close proximity to the pool/water
Not for the disabled
However for everyone else it’s fantastic. Lovely poolside bar open all day. No bar st night but closest restaurant less than one minute away
Very close to everything but quiet "
