Pardalakis Studios

As many others have commented, the family are lovely, laid back (yet hard working!) & try to solve any issues quickly. The food is home-made & much better than many restaurants! Prices very reasonable. Free safe & air-con are a bonus. We found the beds a little hard for our taste - but each to their own! Everything was clean & Maria the cleaner was lovely! Lots of greenery around. Gerani a bit quiet for us. Great supermarket down the road - Agora. Much better than the one off to the left. The local butcher sells delicious meat! Buses frequent. Lovely, chilled holiday - thank you to all the family xx

We visited twice this year - 2024. If you want to relax in a family run hotel this is the place for you. The food on-site is amazing and so reasonable, with the ability to eat both inside and out. The rooms are standard bedroom, kitchenette and bathroom with outside sitting area, these are all immaculately clean, with free fridge, free air con and free safe. There is never an issue with being able to sit around the pool in both the shade or the sunshine whatever time you arrive. The bus stop outside gives you the opportunity to visit Chania for only two euros, or Platanias, if you need a more vibrant & busy shopping, eating venue. We liked this so much we've booked again for June 2025, 😍

booked with jet2 every thing really smooth got to the studios on october 4 booked in at the bar only took a few minutes so had a beer while we went through the booking im a solo traveler so just booked self catering basic room with a small kitchen but everything you will need bed was comfortable shower and toilet spotless . bar was sound bar food was really good the family who run the studios are very nice the pool is good lots of beds and the other people who were staying there were very friendly. the village is out the gate and about 10 mins walk pardalakis is 25 mins or out the gate go left to the bus stop 2 mins and 2 euros best to have the right money the beach out the gate turn right cross over and walk till you see a sign for supermarket turn and walk down the lane you will see the market at the bottom on your left just across to your left another lane towards an hotel beginning with K walk down and through the hotel to their bar and sunbeds .So would i come back if i come back to this part of crete again yes enjoyed my 4 days here fabulous

What a fantastic place, family were so friendly, the room was 1st class, the whole complex was clean. The food was very good nice to have homemade and reasonably priced. Lovely little additions to self catering, hand wash and washing up liquid. Air conditioning superb. Although on main road it was quiet and so near bus stops so travel easy and not expensive. Near to all amenities. Best we have experienced for the cost. Loved it and hopefully will return.

Hosts are nice at first However they allow family and friends children to use the pool as if it was their own personal garden , the children are rude and aggressive to everyone who’s a tourist , they push and pull the kids on holiday and snatch toys and pool floats from them and hurt my kids multiple times shoving them over. And if you complain or mention it to the hosts they become rude and stand offish with you and make you feel extremely uncomfortable It’s in the middle of absolutely no where , few shops or restaurants about , so you have to take a bus everywhere Food isn’t the best served there to be honest The kids however taking over the pool everyday just ruined completely and I’d never return no matter how cheap it was
