We took two rooms with different rate. The better one on the up floor with one big bed and one single bed was equipped with tea pot and had a big balcony with a table and tree chairs, pool and mountain view which we really enjoyed. (The door to a balcony included the insects net that was very convinient) . The hotel rooms were clean. The air condition worked properly even outside was really hot. The hotel has its own parking

Very friendly hostess. Although there had been a problem with our payment, which had been requested on the day of our arrival, the room had been held for us. As we were travelling and off line, we were unaware of the payment issue until we arrived. Room was very clean and spacious with lots of useful storage. Nice little balcony. Useful fridge and kettle. Breakfast was superb. Lovely breakfast room and great choice of food and drinks. Pool area very neat and tidy, with plenty of good sun loungers and in a good position with the option of sun or shade. A 15 minute leisurely walk to the main area of bars, tavernas and gift shops, but there were also one or two tavernas a little nearer.

Great location - very close to the sea, to all restaurants and shops. Greatest host!! - very helpful - you get everything you might need. There is always an access to drinking water, and a nice breakfast included. They also provide beach towels, umbrellas etc. They organized a taxi transfer way cheaper than you can get at the airport. One day there was a party at nearby café, but the music stopped at midnight, and other than that it was surprisingly quiet.

Matala is a colorful, beautiful, and lively little town with a great atmosphere. It is perfect for beach days and a good starting point for day trips to nearby museums and archaeological sites. There is a huge selection of good restaurants. It is a good idea to arrive by car if you want to go on lots of trips and be independent. However, there are also bus connections, e.g. to Heraklion.

Matala is something different and when you there you just fell in love. Of course if you are looking for the crystal clear water, Matala is not the one, even though the surronding landscape is something beautiful. Nights in Matala can't be boring. There is always something to do and have fun. It is defenitley worth a visit.

Matala is one of those places you didn't know you needed to visit until you go.. and then never want to leave. A long, sandy beach, with beautiful clear water, Matala is big enough to have a wide selection of places to eat & shop and yet not be too big. And in Scala & George's Yard it has two very, VERY good restaurants.

Such a beautiful little seaside village that comes to life at night. Could have stayed longer and enjoyed the views, vibes and people. Also we found the pricing cheaper for food and drinks. I must stop

The room was clean and relatively new looking.

The room was clean and relatively new looking. There is no wifi or tv in room. They have wifi at the bar and should be able to get it to rooms with routers but have not bothered. The bed was a disaster, it was hardest bed I have ever tried to sleep on. My wife and I both hardly slept and had sore back in the morning. We have been travelling for over 5 weeks had no problem with any other beds.

There is a great vibe at Matala that differs from the rest of Creta. The hippie feel is true. We caught live music the night we were there and it was the best moment. This along with the red beach - strongly recommend.

Fabulous - What previous guests thought, 56 reviews
We were greeted with a huge smile by Mikos and were made feel very welcome. He also made very good recommendations for restaurants. Villa Sylvia has parking so that was a real bonus on a busy public holiday. A very short walk to the beach and restaurants. Matala was lovely.

It was a welcoming host, well located near the beach, the pool was clean, the room was cleam, very good breakfast prepared by the host's mother who's also really friendly, private parking near Matala's beach. Unfortunately, we only stayed one night.

The lady at the counter was super amazing. Very friendly and helpful. The accommodation really made the beginning of our trip memorable and relaxed. Everything was taken care of. The location made it possible to walk to the Matala beach in no time.

Right in the heart of Matala, minutes walking distance to the beach, and close to a large paid parking space. The room was very clean and provided the basics required for a short beach stay.
