Samaria by the Sea

Gigilos

"Crystal clear beach is right in front, restaurant has excellent food with huge portions rooms are very clean with balconies and seaview and all equipped with a/c in case of heatwave. Highly recommended to get to know Cretan hospitality enjoy exploring nearby canyons and beaches and relax in the cleanest of seas."

Livikon by the Sea

"Upea huone kauniin rantakatselun kanssa. Sänky oli niin mukava ja rakasti oleskeluani. Arvostin vain sitä alhaisemmalla kunnossapidossa, koska hotelli oli tehnyt työtä sisäkoristelu ja rakennustöitä. Koska se oli alhainen kausi, baari ei ollut avoinna."

VENTUS Luxury Suites

"Täydellinen sijainti tässä kulmassa taivaassa. Käytä lämpöputkia, mutta ranta ovella miksi olisit!"

Sfakian Horizon

"We had a wonderful stay in hotel sfakian horizon. Breakfasts were excellent, rooms exceptionally clean and modern with walk in shower and very friendly staff. We thought it was an idillic spot but guests would need to manage hills and steps. We enjoyed all the local walks and gorges for walking, easily accessed by water taxis or local buses. The local bars and restaurants were 5 mins away and also a bakery, pharmacy and harbour. Would definitely recommend if you prefer an authentic experience that hasn't lost its greek charm and hospitality."

Sweet Corner Masxali

"Overall our stay was pleasant: the room was large enough, we saw the sea from our balcony, toilet was big enough not to feel cramped and we had a kitchenette with everything except a pan for Greek coffee (which we like). The staff was friendly, they picked us up from the harbor and drive us back when it was time to go. The food in the restaurant was reasonably priced and very tasty, both during the day and in the evening. The private beach they have was nice although the path there is a bit steep, so it may not need the best choice for the most frail. For everyone else it poses no challenge. There are free sunbeds and umbrellas (in varying condition) as well as some tables. They also have a canoe and a “water bike” so if you use those you could save tens of euros during your stay compared to other options. There is no service on the beach but I don’t see that as a bad thing, just something I wanted to mention to those who look for full service. But those probably go for all-inclusive places anyway. The bed was very good in Greek standards, and we’ve tried several dozen different ones over the years. The moussaka we had one evening was the best I’ve ever had. Truly home made in their own way, from fresh ingredients and cooked the same day. I’d walk there for that from the town center (which is 300m away). The location is one of the bonuses of this place: it’s “far away” from everything else so it is SO quiet there. I just loved that. One day we got to enjoy a pack of goats just outside the balcony. One big minus (for the whole town) comes from all the lights everywhere. This town is supposed to be one of the very few places with little light pollution and we were hoping to do some stargazing. Yes, you can see some stars but the lights everywhere just hides most of them. What an opportunity wasted. Note, this isn’t a fault of the hotel, it’s the street lights on the roads that spoil it all. It’s just that this one is away from the center so they would have a perfect chance to take advantage of that if the lights could be turned off after some time. So pluses: + quiet + beds + nice views + all you need under one roof (if you want) + moussaka (had to mention again) Minuses: - sunbeds/umbrellas in varying condition, not as nice as in places that charge for them. Still very usable - light pollution prevents you from enjoying the amazing skies (but this goes for the entire village) I would heartily recommend this place to anyone wishing to enjoy Agia Roumeli. It doesn’t prevent you from checking out other restaurants and sights and you won’t even notice the crowd coming out of Samaria gorge in the afternoon filling all places as they don’t come that far."

Fata Morgana Studios & Apartments

"Meillä oli ihana aika Fata Morganassa. Kauniit huoneistot, puhdas ja täydellinen. Näkymä on hyvä! Omistajien apu ja palvelu oli lämmin ja enemmän kuin voisimme kuvitella."

Daskalogiannis Hotel

"Näkymät, Absolutely fabulous. Huone oli kunnossa, pieni ongelma, ei kuumaa vettä aamulla, mutta se oli korjattu. Aamiainen on riittävä."

John Akroyiali

"The hôtel is horrible, the rooms are dirty and unconfortable, the ladies at réception were smoking near my window although I told them that I have a health problem they ignored me and they were very rude to me, horrible expérience I advice not to go to this place"
