Matala is a colorful, beautiful, and lively little town with a great atmosphere. It is perfect for beach days and a good starting point for day trips to nearby museums and archaeological sites. There is a huge selection of good restaurants. It is a good idea to arrive by car if you want to go on lots of trips and be independent. However, there are also bus connections, e.g. to Heraklion.

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.

If you want to take a great breath of the magical spirit of Matala this is your Place: the hosts are Simply delicious and the hotel Is Just 4steps to the beach and the Town so a perfect to relax and enjoy. What else? Felt in love with the many kittens that Always sleep around and waiting for cuddles... I've told that they also have a quiet swimming pool? Not only recommended: if you come to Matala you should be there!

Primarily the location is incredible: you stay almost on the beach, but in fact you are above the huge parking lot belonging to this one and only beach in Matala. So you can see and watch everything and evrybody. But almost everyone going to the beach or leaving it watches you as well - 24 hrs. You are on a 'stage' there. You have to like that.

Clean room, very friendly staff/family. Close to the beach and in the center of Matala. Very quiet, so you can sleep well. Comfortable mattresses. Good Wifi. Parking is free, only 1-2 min walk from the hotel. Great balcony. There’s also a little kitchen and a fridge in the room, lovely.
