The perfect relaxation spot for hotel, pool, and access to Matala's beach and restaurants.
Pros:

Caringly run family hotel which has become our regular relaxation place. Good room with excellent balcony view of countryside, comfortable bed, good fridge and air conditioning. Good breakfast with daily variety, excellent pool, excellent wifi, and good location. Staff and cleanliness faultless.

Cons:

Nein, kein zweites Mal
Pros:

Völlig unangebrachtes Verhalten der Dame an der Rezeption (Maria), die nach einem sprachlichen Missverständnis gänzlich unangemessen reagiert hat. So etwas ist uns noch nie passiert!

Cons:

Das Verhalten der Rezeptionistin. Das Zimmer laut (zur Straße). Kein Handtuchwechsel die ganze Woche.

Genieten en ontspannen
Pros:

Mooi zwembad, goede ligging op wandelafstand van centrum en strand. Wij hadden een hele mooie juniorsuite. Fijn dat ze voor de lokale poezen zorgen! Da bazin was heel vriendelijk en aanspreekbaar. Wij komen terug!

Jeśli trafisz do starej, niewyremontowanej części, to nie polecam.
Pros:

Strefa basenowa mocnym punktem pobytu: świetny basen, , bardzo zadbany teren, dużo leżaków, fajny bar (piwo, wino, kanapki, frytki, burgery - smacznie), sympatyczny, uśmiechnięty barman, śniadania średnie, ale wystarczające.

Cons:

Pokój przestarzały, do remontu, koszmarna łazienka, mała, z zasłonką, woda rozlewała się po całości. Kiepskie kosmetyki w łazience, musieliśmy dokupić na własną rękę. Drzwi na balkon zacinały się i skrzypiały. W hotelu są części po remoncie, ale my trafiliśmy na część starą i do remontu.

Firm favourite family hotel.
Pros:

Good setting on the edge of Matala, with superb pool and within easy walking distance of beach, village, and many good local restaurants. Bus stop at gate giving services to other locations and beaches.
Room modest but quiet and comfortable, with good hot water, fridge, and wifi. Balcony with rural view. Spotless, and staff excellent.
Buffet breakfast with good choice of cold and hot items.

Cons:

For a small family hotel, personally run, it is difficult to fault.

Warmth of welcome matches the climate - lovely family hotel providing scope for full relaxation.
Pros:

Returning again, feeling at home from the moment of entering the door. Honest, caring family hotel with excellent quality facilities, but no unnecessary frills. Welcome genuinely warm. Rooms adequate, comfortable beds, effective bathrooms with good hot water, perfect wifi. Balcony with plenty of space to sit out. Perfect pool and pool area, nice pool bar with snacks.
Easy 10 minute walk to Matala and its many good eating places, and beach. Bus stop at hotel entrance for wider exploration.

Cons:

Leaving - tempered by knowing we will be back again.
