“Loud and not renovated, but clean”
Very friendly personal, welcome drink Rakia and Retsina, as well as figs. Central location in the middle of Matala, near chiesa di Panagia (little church inside the mountain). Clean apartment.

“Lovely place to stay for couples.”
Perfect location with a nice shadow area at the entrance under a tree where we could relax and have meals. Private space!

“The owners were just a great couple”
This efficiency unit filled all my needs. Met the owners. Great couple and dealt with me in English. Not knowing any Greek it makes the stay that more enjoyable. Place is as close to the water as can be. Plenty of restaurants in walking distance. ( Because it was mid February just a few open.) Being the middle of winter, the place was a little chilly. Presto! Their heating system turned on and the room was nice and warm. Made for great sleeping. A draw back may be that there was no TV. It wasn't a problem for me as their WIFI worked just well. Thank you.

Very easy to collect the key from nearby café. Worth the money modest room with small kitchen (glasses, kettle, etc). Very pleasant to have a compliment - raki, apples & litre of retsina! Beach in 1 minute - the middle of Matala! Thank you!
