"We spent a week here and went out everyday sightseeing and to different beaches, with lots of walks! Kamilari has a nice feeling about it, very friendly locals, some great Tavernas and a very well stocked supermarket. Not forgetting The Blues bar for cocktails! Vangelis and Tanya are really lovely people and the house was perfect Tanya even made me a birthday cake for my 60th!!"

"While we were a little surprised at the ruggedness of the trail to the beach, everything else was wonderful. John was friendly, responsive to our requests, a very gracious host. Lots of little amenities to make our stay easy. "

"Beautiful spot with lovely views. It is remote so you definitely need a car. Lovely beaches that are close and many restaurants to choose from. The pool was an added plus."

"Excellent location. Good breakfast. Very reasonably priced. "

"The staff were great...so helpful."

"Very nice hotel. Breakfast was included! Location was convent for visiting the beach. Room was clean safe and quiet! Tastefully decorated. We had a nice sea view from our room!"

"Beautiful villa in a very peaceful village with an amazing view. Genuine and hospitable host, reflecting the character of the region which is possibly the most hospitable culture i have ever encountered. Couldnt recommend highly enough. "

"One of the loveliest hotels we've stayed in on Crete, and excellent value. Our room had a breathtaking seaview and we'd return just for this alone. But the host, Harris, was also very friendly and attentive, telling us how to navigate down to the beach and town. Air conditioning worked like a dream and the bed was comfy. All in all a brilliant experience, and as we are frequent visitors to Crete we will be back. "

"Excellent small and peaceful boutique hotel in a stunning location with beautiful views over the sea and a short walk to the beach in one direction and to the village in the other direction. Many shops and restaurants in easy reach of the hotel, whether at the beach or in the village. Supermarket opposite the hotel for essentials. Easy parking opposite the hotel. Staff are super friendly and accommodating. Excellent breakfast. Our room was wonderful, a family suite perfect for our family of four. Comfortable beds, balcony with stunning view, fridge, safe, excellent a/c and other essentials. Can't vouch for the other rooms but paying extra for the sea view is certainly worth it. "
