“Ideal choice for anyone looking to relax in a peaceful setting”
The apartment was incredibly spacious, providing a perfect environment to unwind and relax. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything one might need for cooking, from pots and pans to utensils and even basic condiments, making it easy to prepare meals without missing anything. The hosts were absolutely wonderful. They went above and beyond to make sure our stay was as comfortable as possible. They were always available to answer questions and offer assistance. Overall, this apartment was an ideal choice for anyone looking to relax in a peaceful setting, with all the comforts of home and excellent support from attentive hosts. The beach is also conveniently close, just a short walk down a road lined with bars and restaurants.

“Nice economic and clean”
Easy check in at the sister hotel just down the road. The apartment was clean and gas everything you need inside. It wasn't modern but the price reflects this. We were only there for one night as we had a race early the next morning. We were kindly allowed to check out a little later so we could shower after the race.

“Nice place for short stay”
Not far to the beach. Good base to use to explore surrounding area & Matala. Pillows were very firm and gave me neck ache but I messaged the host and got a lovely softer one. Lovely beach and local restaurants.

“Not very comfortable”
I liked the idea of widespread hotel to redevelop the village in which it is located. It is very close to the beach of Kalamaki and 15 mins by car from Matala. Quiet plaace.

“Quaint 2 star appartment”
We took the lower larger apartment on site. The place was spotlessly clean with good linen and towels. Instructions from the host were detailed and finding the key easy. This is a typical older style pension although tastefully decorated and furnished. The bathroom is rudimentary although plenty of hot water. There is no view. Well equipped kitchen, good wifi and aircon.

Alexia and her husband are very welcoming, polite, understanding and proactive (even when I lost my keys). Very good internet. I stayed one night in the larger apartment downstairs which is definitely worth booking. Free bottles of water every time Alexia cleaned (which was every couple of days 🙂). Very very close to the beach and excellent restaurants and nice at sunset.

I stayed for a few days in this wonderful apartment with an absolutely fully equipped open kitchen. Everything you need is at your fingertips, even a French press for coffee, and the furniture is new and comfortable. It's just a minute away from the beach, in an absolutely romantic location. Thank you for your availability and the wonderful accommodation you provided us with.

“Just perfect to stay in Kalamaki”
Just great in any respect. Close to the sea, it had everything you needed. Alexia was as kind as to follow us during our stay and ask if we needed anything. She also made sure we would have reached the facility and sent us precise indications. A really good place to stay in Kalamaki. You could see the sea from the balcony, and made friends with a local who was renting a house just in front and was always there to clean and receive new guests 😅

Such an amazing typical Crete place, we had really perfect time there! The room was very clean with very comfortable bed and sofa, there is also a private and safe terrace and very good equipped kitchen. And the greatest was that you are really close to the beach with a lot of tavernas and shops but at the same time the place is quiet and relaxing. The host was very nice! Thanks a lot!!! We will visit this place very soon again!
