Beautiful property in a fabulous location. The main bedroom especially, the bathrooms, the pool, the balcony, even the roof under the stars! All superb. A sense of luxury just 1 min walk from all the charm that Matala has to offer. Nikos and his mother were also incredibly warm, friendly, helpful and professional. Great communication throughout.

The villa with a terrace and mountain views features 2 bedrooms, a living room, a flat-screen TV, an equipped kitchen with a dishwasher and an oven, and 3 bathrooms with a walk-in shower. The tiled floors, fireplace and peaceful vibe add to the ambience of the room. The villa offers bed linen, towels and laundry service.

Stunning Villa with bathroom inside everyone of the 2 bedrooms. Very clean, new and beautiful interior, own infinity pool for every villa. Maybe around 5-10 minutes to walk to Malata Beach... Better to walk because there are not enough possibilities for parking on the Beach. We were so glad to be there... best time of our round trip. Employees from the hotel where breakfast is, are so much kindly.

We loved our stay at AKTI homes. The house was in a great location, could be at the sea in 1 minute, even less to the bars and restaurants. The view of the caves from the balcony was beautiful and was lovely relaxing in the hot tub listening to live music being played locally floating through the air. Great finishes on appliances and comfy beds. The owner met us on arrival and she was lovely. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay again.

Boasting mountain views, Castri House features accommodation with a private beach area and a balcony, around a few steps from Matala beach. The air-conditioned accommodation is 1.3 km from Red Sand Beach.

The best, I repeat, the best location in Matala. A view like from an eagle's nest on the bay, cliff, town. Access to the city beach 2.5 minutes (exit from the beach to the facility 4.5 minutes). You can walk between neighboring houses only in flip-flops and with a beach towel. The most wonderful beaches before and after the departure of guests who arrive from Heraklion between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. The perfect price-quality ratio. Nice gifts during your stay from the owners. Excellent contact with the caretaker of the facility, Mrs. Eva. Discreet cleaning of the facility. Moments spent on the terrace - priceless, not convertible into any currency. Live music (blues, reggae and local) coming discreetly from 21:00 - 23:00. A table, dinners, a bottle of chilled wine and sunsets and nights with the stars. The sound of the waves coming from the bay. What more do you want? It is worth staying in this place for at least 5-7 days to catch the atmosphere of the place. Beautiful Red Baach beach (15 minutes to and 25 minutes back) accessible in swimwear. Must visit Mojito Jannis Red Beach and ... don't believe the negative reviews. He is a wonderful, sensitive man running his own business. If you give kindness, it will come back to you in greater quantity. You get everything in the facility: silence, music, crystal sea, kindness, the ability to do your own cooking, swimming, jogging, walking, bathing and wonderful moments with a loved one.

    This is a beautiful apartment in a great location. Probably the most romantic flat above a kebab shop that you will ever find - with a wonderful balcony and terrace overlooking the sea. Angelika was a fantastic host, making us feel very welcome and incredibly generous too.

    Very rustic, cosy place to stay. Quiet and peaceful. No pool but there is a hotel a bit down the road, nearer to town, that lets you use their pool if you buy drinks or food from them

    Lovely bungalow room in a great location. The breakfast was a good addition and staff very welcoming. Matala was a short walk or drive and is the perfect mix of beach, history and relaxed night life. Loved the sunsets, restaurants and evening shopping in the lovely bazaar.

    Small family hotel with clean rooms and a nice swimming pool. The beating heart, however, is the cosy bar where the owner makes every body feel welcome, connect and taste his excellent home made limoncello like raki. There is free parking and the beach, the bars and restaurants are at 10 min walking distance.
