Ontspannen op een top locatie
Pros:

Heerlijk hotel om maximaal tot rust te komen. Hotel en Matala is echt genieten. Het zwembad en de ligbedden in de schaduw maakt het helemaal compleet om tot rust te komen. Het hotel ligt op loopafstand van het strand en leuke restaurantjes waar iedereen heel relaxt is.

Pros:

Finom reggeli, nagyon kedves személyzet, tiszta szobák!
Egy élmény volt!
Külön köszönet, hogy szinte azonnal a segítségünkre siettek, amikor gond akadt a kocsival, amit béreltünk!

Komfortabel und ruhig in Matala
Pros:

Das Frühstück war sehr lecker, die Lage ist top in ca 5 Gehminuten ist man am Strand, der Pool und Spielplatz war super für unsere kleine Tochter, das Zimmer war sauber und schön eingerichtet, es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Aussderm war das Personal sehr freundlich

Cons:

Der Geruch des Abwassers war teilweise unangenehm jedoch auch auf der Straße vor dem Hotel, ich denke viele werfen das Klopapier in die Toilette und das wird das Problem sein, am Hotel lag es eher nicht

Potentiel à exploiter mieux.
Pros:

Hôtel qui a du potentiel. Grandes chambres . Matelas ferme mais on sent les ressorts. Il serait préférable d’avoir un sur matelas. Pas d’eau chaude 2 jours sur 3 vers 17h… petit déjeuner acceptable. Très belle piscine. Calme

Close to beach, friendly service, recommended
Pros:

Decided to spend a night in town and booked a single night at Calypso. I arrived after having watched the sunset on the beach at 8 pm to friendly staff, a nice clean room, and an offer to have a tasty dinner at the hotel!
