Great room, great breakfast, free parking, and great staff. We met people that return year after year. That in itself says it all.

We liked the fact it was away from the main town and within walking distance to Grammeno Beach which is sandy. The local beach is just a few minutes walk away across the road with a lovely cafe/ staff but it's pebble beach but also beautiful.The water is crystal clear.
The breakfast was generous and wonderful and the two ladies who did the breakfast and cleaned our rooms we're so lovely.
The garden is beautiful. People took the breakfast out on a tray and sat under the vine. I enjoyed watching the goats on the rocks behind the house.
There are quite a few restaurants to eat in nearby within walking distance if you didn't fancy driving into Paleochora town including one in the campsite which is nearby.
Casbah Boutique Hotel provides rooms with free WiFi in Palaiochora, conveniently located a 4-minute walk from Pachia Ammos and 600 yards from Halikia Beach.

The place is beautiful, designed and finished to a really high standard. The bed was super comfy, and all the staff that I met were really friendly and accommodating. I love the little touches, like some olive oil, washing up liquid and kitchen roll given to me which meant that I didn't have to buy these items - always an issue of waste when travelling for a short time if you want to cook.
I loved my time here and will definitely be back!

The owner and her trusty cleaner Katarina were wonderful. So friendly and welcoming. The room was adequate. Comfy beds, great shower, a little tight in the kitchen area but I used it mostly for coffee and breakfast. It was the location that I really enjoyed. A 7-8 min walk into town to catch the free shuttle to the beach and situated at the edge of town making the return 4km walk a bit shorter.

If you are looking for a small laid back beach town in Crete, this is a greatchoice. Many of the more full service touristy options are on the north side of the island, Palaiochora is on the south. You can drive from Palaichora to Chania in less than 1.5 hours : drive to Heraklion is closer to 3.5 hours.
Plenty of beaches, good food, good people. Not really a party crowd, at least when we were there at the end of the season. There are many options for boat trips, hiking and outdoor activities. Ebikes and similar are easy to rent.

Lovely relaxed seaside town - really chill atmosphere in the evenings with lots of restaurants along the sea front and in main and back streets serving great food and generous extras (bread, olives, small desserts and raki).
We enjoyed a good balance of some hiking (Aghia Irina Gorge was lovely and very quiet), hiring a car to explore the area and a couple of days of swimming, snorkelling and reading on the beach.
I expect Paleochora is heaving n high season, but in Kate September was wonderfully laid back - a few days here and a few in Chania& Rethymno was a really nice balance.
I would stay right in the town next time - lots of small studios advertised along the road from town to harbour looked nice, quiet and close to everything

Palauochora is lovely low key resort with great food and beaches. We really like the vibe of the town which is authentic and friendly. Highly recommended for 3-4 days or longer. Really like the fact that it can be easily accessed by a very efficient bus and ferry service. We’ll definitely be back

Pretty little town with a chilled vibe but still has some action. Excellent cocktail bar in the middle of town. Amazing sunrises on one side and the most stunning sunsets on the other side.
Sandy beaches for those who like that but rocky beaches on the ither side that offer great snorkelling opportunities.

What a lovely place this is.
What a lovely place this is. It has lots going on in the harbour town. With a very friendly vibe. Soooo many places to eat, either on the harbour front or in the lovely little narrow streets of the town.
The town beach near the harbour is pebbles but across town is a wonderful wide stretch of beach that is lovely and sandy. It did get a bit windy and this makes the sand blow around. So use the edge near the Castel.
The ferry comes into the main harbour , so although we didn't venture that far ypu could take day trips from there. Next time we will🙂
We will revisit- its one of those places that you want to return to.
We loved the proximity to beaches and restaurants. At the same time, the hotel is on a quiet street, which made for excellent sleeping at night. The young man at reception, we didn’t catch his name, was very hospitable and made us feel at home. he gave us excellent restaurant recommendations. we appreciated that the kitchen was set up with coffee and juice. we enjoyed the complementary raki on arrival, and in the fridge!
Wonderful place and the best hosts in Crete. The studio was clean, the AC worked great, and housekeeping was done daily. It's located close to a supermarket, a sandy beach and a bakery. It's also a very short walk away from the center. The host was very polite and careful to all our needs. We stayed there for two weeks and it was one of the best holidays, we will definitely come here again.
The property is very spacious and clean. It has all the amenities needed for comfortable and unforgettable holidays. The views (breathtaking sea view) are the best you can get in Palaiochora and it is very close to the best beaches of the area. As a bonus, there is an infinity pool to compliment the time spent at “home”. It did feel comfortable and welcoming! We will definitely visit again.
The location is excellent, a few minutes walk to the beach and to the center of Palaiochora where all the tavernas and cafes, shopping area etc. are. Our room was exactly as in the pictures, comfortable bed and I particularly liked that our room was cool the whole day despite the heat of the summer.
The apartment was spacious and spotlessly clean. The balcony was huge, with a fantastic view, and plenty of seating options. The location was extremely central; easy to walk to shops, restaurants, and the beaches. The host, Nancy, was extremely helpful before and during our stay.
Extremely comfortable well equipped rooms. The host was superb, very helpful and friendly, couldn't have been nicer. The apartment was very close to the beach, and all that the town had to offer was only a short easy walk away.
The home made biscuits were yummy!!
The hotel is conveniently located near of two sided beaches, one side pebbled and the other side sandy.
It has a very nice swimming pool as well even if we did not use it.!!
The staff were very polite and really helpful.
New toothbrushes/shampoos/hairbalm/moisterising cream where also provided. Much more than expected. And less expensive to eat out at local resturants since beeing away from crowded tourist areas. The beach was great too😊
Fantastic personnel. The apartments are exactly in the heart of Palaiochora city, close to everything, beach-restaurants-shops-bars.
The room was quite comfortable and very spacious!
Comfortable, modern, clean, well equipped apartment right at the beginning of the beach. All is accessible on foot. A great base for exploring southwest Crete. Worth coming back for.
This is an excellent (new) hotel in a great location (no sea view maybe but very near the beach and with parking), spotlessly clean, stylish, with very helpful staff.
The facility and the staff were just perfect. Clean and quiet rooms, perfect on the edge of paleochora, 2 minutes walk from stony beach! A wonderful vaccation!
