The location is perfect to explore Matala and the Red beach on the other side. The garden of the house is very cute, we had a spacious terrace, too, and the bed was very confortable. On top of everything, and the most important, Doria is an absolute gem - we stayed for one night and she welcomed us like we were going to stay for a month. Thanks a million Doria for your kindness, all the best for you and for your sweet family, too. Camille and Maël

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.

When we arrived, the host, Nektarios, immediately took me for a walk through Matala to get to know the place and give us some tips, at all times being very friendly. The apartment looks just like in the pictures, and they are located in the very center of Matala. The beach is 10m away, very convenient. The beach and water are beautiful, and there are very nice places to eat out. Aside from the Matala beach, there is another very nice one, 25min hike by foot, called Red beach

A great vibe, a transformational space, a place of fun and light, the staff interact and are extremely helpful, a very close knit family feel, a nice mix of people of all ages from children to grandparents. Many outings ranging from cliff jumping to fire nights on the beach. Nice music, great pool and various games are played throughout the day. I observed many people extend there stays or leave and return, the best hostel I have ever stayed in, thank you Matala Hostel!

We loved our stay at matala blue! The apartment was generously sized and had facilities that worked well for us. It was very close to the beach and town and had a great view over the bay. Our host was very friendly and helpful, she and her husband came over to fix the shower head very quickly after it had broken, and even messaged to check that we were ok after the earthquake! I would recommend this apartment to all my friends and family.

Everything!! The location and apartment were perfection in every way. Apartment was spotlessly clean and comfortable. Bed was exceptional. Could not ask for more. Right on the beach, but private with unspoilt views of the whole of Matala bay and the best place yo capture the sunset. Best place I've ever stayed in Crete! The owner was so welcoming and nice. I would go back in a heartbeat to stay here again.
