The apartment is located just outside of Matala center, which is even better to avid the confusion. Everything is brand new, with essential white spaces. A big plus is that there are a lot of beautiful plants and flowers all around. The private terrace is perfect for relaxing in the evening.

Nice place in a quite location of Matala. Couple of minutes walk to the village, where you can find all the attractions. Friendly and helpful host, ideal swimming pool area for being with small kids as there is a separate shallow pool for them and you can order some food (spaghetti and pizza was our favorites) and drinks from the bar at very good prices. Clean room, lots of space for car parking. We were only for one night, but we enjoyed it as we got everything we needed.

    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.

    Matala is a tourist hot spot.

    Matala is a tourist hot spot. So a lot of restaurants there, lot of tourist shops with souvenirs and a lot of people. The beach itself is not that big, but it was nice though. I mean it really depends on what you are looking for. I am more fond of less crowded and less touristy places, so perhaps next time I would look for something more matching my preferences. On the other hand there is nothing wrong about Matala at all. All the people there are very friendly. Really it depends on what you prefer...
