Detailed Reviews
A stones throw from the beach and tavernas but far enough away to relax by the pool and sip a few cold glasses from the bar. Rooms are great value for money with simple yet hearty breakfasts. Dimitris Villas has family run touch to it and gives you a taste of Greek holidays just as they should be....

Εμεινα σε αυτό το ξενοδοχείο 9 ημέρες. Ήτανε απίθανα.Η τοποθεσία εξαιρετική ,κυριαρχούσε η ηρεμία και η γαλήνη.Το δωμάτιο αρκετά μεγάλο,όπως και το μπάνιο. Κάθε μέρα η κ Αθηνά καθάριζε το δωμάτιο με εξαιρετική σχολαστικότητα.Το πρωινό και αυτό εξαίρετο ,ο μπουφές γεμάτος με διάφορα καλούδια.Να και η πισίνα μεγάλη, καθαρή με τις ξαπλώστρες γύρω γύρω περιμένοντας τους πελάτες.Ένα μεγάλο ευχαριστώ τόσο στην μαμά Ελένη τόσο και στην κόρη Μαριάνθη ,που με έκανα να αισθανθώ σαν το σπίτι μου και οι οποίες κοίταγαν με κάθε τρόπο να εξυπηρετούσαν και τους πιο δύσκολους πελάτες.Συνεχίστε έτσι και μην αλλάξετε τίποτα

chambres sales donnant sur le terrain vague, accueil "Thénardier", télé tenant par une sangle, grille anti moustiques rafistolée avec des sparadraps et des punaises, si on ouvre l'armoire, on ne peut pas ouvrir la salle de bain qui laisse échapper une douce odeur d'égouts et j'en passe... Tellement en colère que j'ai viré toutes les photos (dommage)

Off the main road so is quiet but only five minutes walk from Matala Beach. A small family run affair which looked like it had been recently decorated. The rooms are small but spotlessly clean. Room facilities are good and include TV, air conditioning, a safe and a fridge The beds are reasonably comfortable. Continental breakfast is good value for 5 euros extra. We did not use the pool or bar facilities. The free internet didn't work in our room though was mostly fine outside except it kept dropping out. Reasonable price and would definitely stay there again.

Прекрасное расположение. Чисто, ни чего сломанного или ветхого. Очень уютная и комната и двор. Клёвый завтрак: довольно разнообразный выбор для такого отеля. Все очень вкусно. Внимательный душевный персонал.

Only stayed for one night on a mini tour of southern Crete, we wish we had planned for longer. All staff very friendly and helpful, room was small, but everything you need, free air con, free safety deposit, free wifi, also fridge in room. With small private balcony on our upstairs room. The hotel is probably around 30 years old, but we found our room to be well maintained and very clean. Breakfast was normal continental fare, which we found perfect for us. We plan to stay a little longer, hopefully same time next year. We felt that we paid very little, but got a great deal back in return.

I would just like to say I was so happy there, very calm and peaceful!
Really liked the colourful apartments and so clean too.
I enjoyed getting to know the wonderful family and spending time with them even though they are so busy all the time yet still always try to do the very best for everyone that was noticed big time!
Eleni and mirianthi are very good cooks and were giving guests homemade food ! Not what you usually get in a hotel , here much more of a personalised touch! Wow!
Also Eleni made fresh tasty biscuits and would give them out to her guests.
The place was near to Matala too 7 mins! And it's nice to go out from the main part of matala into a tranquil area to go bank to your apartments!
Lovely smiley helpful people! Clean place, gorgeous food for an absolute bargain what more could you ask for!!!
Thanks Eleni, Mirianthi! X

This rental house has its unique peculiar style that well corresponds with the atmosphere of Crete and Matala, in particular. The rental rooms face a small courtyard with a lot of flowers that make you truly feel you're on holidays now! The rental house is located off the main road therefore, no need to worry about the traffic noise.
As you enter the room (our was on the groundfloor), your enthusiasm might wane a little for the room interior somewhat contrasts with the flowery exterior. It appears dark and small, especially at first glance. Indeed, it isn't huge, however, the space available is sufficient for a couple who spends the whole day outside and the room uses just for sleeping at night. Actually, outside the room, in the courtyard, there is a small plastic set (a table and two chairs) available only for you, so you can have your morning (or evening) coffee there and enjoy the tranquility of Matala.
The reception is located elsewhere (some 100 meters ahead the rental house, coming from the main road), in a separate house where the breakfast is serviced, as well. What makes this place particularly attractive is a nice swimming pool just nearby, which is open from 8 am until 9 pm. One of my favourite memories from Crete will be me enjoying the water there in late evening when it was already completely dark, and the pool and the lawns around it were illuminated by lamps...
A small disadvantage of this place is its bad (actually quite absurd) marking. As to go down the road to Matala, you will not spot any signs guiding you to "Dimitris Villa". Actually, there is one, but visible only if you go... in the opposite direction (= as you leave Matala). Thus, you need to watch out carefully to find the villa, however, since Matala is not big, you'll find it sooner or later - no worries. Anyway, be sure not to go too far (to the centre of village) as the villa is located quite at the outskirts of Matala (some 1 km from the beach), on you left hand side as you pull into the town.

Nous sommes venus dans cet hôtel suite à une promotion ( 20 euros la nuit) et aux magnifiques photos sur leur site internet. À notre arrivée, première déception la piscine est vide et la propriétaire nous annonce qu'elle ne sera mise en service. La chambre se situe dans un pavillon au milieu des champs avec vue sur le linge qui sèche. Une fois dans la chambre nous avons profité d'une bonne odeur de moisi. La literie est de qualité médiocre, pas de couvertures deux places pour un lit double ( nous avons réussi à avoir un drap deux places au lieu de deux draps une place après avoir réclamé). Salle de douche assez petite et sans eau chaude. Nous avions réservé et payé à l'avance autrement nous aurions fui dès la première journée ...

Wir buchten das Hotel am Abend zuvor auf unserer Reise bei booking.com. Dort wurde es mit drei Sternen angepriesen und hatte sehr gute Bewertungen. Wir kamen da an und erschraken, als wir das Zimmer sahen. Die Dame an der Rezeption sprach weder englisch noch deutsch, lediglich am Telefon wurde mir dann eine Dame ans Ohr gehalten, die sofort anfing uns anzumachen. Wir beschwerten uns über das Zimmer, nachdem wir es sahen, denn es gab nur ein winziges Badfenster, ansonsten war das Zimmer stockfinster, ein Loch. Im Pool war kein Wasser, angeblich, weil es am Tag zuvor geregnet hatte. Im Gespräch mit Bewohnern Matalas erfuhren wir, dass es nicht regnete - wir mussten uns also auch noch anlügen lassen. Der aggressive Unterton im Gespräch und die Art und Weise, wie mit uns umgegangen wurde, war eine Frechheit! Am Besten war der Beginn des Gesprächs: "Was haben Sie erwartet? Drei Sterne für diesen Preis?" und "Bei dem Wetter haben wir kein Wasser im Pool!". Entschuldigung, aber dann schreibt man das genauso in die Beschreibung des Hotels!
Nie wieder. Für mich war das Betrug! Wir kamen in der Stadt in einem 1 Sterne Hotel unter und waren mega zufrieden!
