“A-must place! All the magic and charm of old Cretan villa with 21st century amenities”
10++ hotel! The Cretan Villa Hotel boasts an amazing location, just steps away from all the action in Lerapetra. The triple room is squeaky clean, large, and comfortable, with everything you need. Comfy beds, a small refrigerator, a nice-sized shower with endless hot water, and a sweet balcony looking at the quiet street beside the hotel. Minos, the host, is a warm and welcoming guy who'll give you full intel: recommendations about restaurants, trips, and excursions to information about culture, weather, and wine tasting opportunities

“Very good for one night”
- good location near all the interesting parts of Ierapetra - nice room, decent shower with good pressure and hot water (not everywhere normal in Crete), big bed. - friendly owner, who hands out a plan with explications - had a good night sleep, even if the matress is a bit hard and I forgot to ask for a second pillow - tea for free in the room - good, new air condition, it was needed as our room was on the ground floor and I couldn't leave the window open.

“Conveniently located, close to the center but on a quiet street.”
We stayed for two nights. The hotel is very conveniently located, close to the center but on a quiet street without through traffic. Parking is easy in the neighborhood. The host is very kind and helpful, providing us with lots of information. The hotel is well-maintained, and a good breakfast is served at Cafe Casablanca next door.

Beautiful apartment, every detail is perfectly integrated. Communication with the host is very easy. You are in the center but still quiet enough that it was good for sleeping (we were there for the weekend). There are two excellent restaurants next to it and the host very nicely explained to us in which street next to the accommodation to park your car (there was always a place). 😊

“Charming and stylish villa in the middle of the city on a pedestrian only street”
The villa is chic and feels secluded although centrally located, like an oasis in the desert. Just a short walk to the port. The best was the host and his suggestions and tips. It helped us greatly to replan our 2 days stay and discover places to visit and to eat at that one wouldn’t easily find in blogs or social media, so take your time to talk to him. Would love to come and stay there again.
