When we arrived at the parking place at the hotel,Manolis{on of the owners} received us very friendly and insisted to carry our suitcases to our room. So we felt at home from the first moment. We enjoyed our holiday in the hotel and in Matala itself. The room was very fine with a balkony wich provided us with a great panorama over the hills, Breakfast was very good and we really loved to have the breakfast out in the open air ,where you can smell the fine smell of nature of Crete. It was a walk of about 20 minutes tot the center and beach of Matala. We did not like the shower so much,because the shower curtain was not sufficient ,the whole bathroom looked like a miniswimmingpool after taking a shower, Unfortenately the radio didn,t work . There was no watercooker ,so we could not make a cup of tea /coffee at the room. On the other side,when my partner ask for a hairdryer she got it imidiately from Olympios{the very friendly co owner ot the hotel.} And that is the general atmosfere at the hotel,the staff and employers are more than willing to help you with everything.. The bartender Michaelis is also very friendly. If you like to drink a beer or something else when returning at the hotelbar after 22.00 returning from Matala town,you might have a problem there cause it,s closed.. Garden,swimmingpool ect where absoluteley splendid, If you look for a hotel to have a nice easygoing holiday this might be the place to be quit nights ,no disco nois ore drunken tourists. Harmony pur sang,just as the name of the hotel suggest. Whe can only say that if whe would visit Matala again whe would gladly stay in this hotel again. Its not very handy for people with a handicap,due to the stares at the complex. If you would like to rent a bike there is a bike rental next to the hotel,with very fine bikes of all kinds wich is run by Lydia who happens to be the wife of Olympios,she will offer you a good deal if you mention that you are a hotelgast.

15 minutes from Matala beach located family hotel with spacious rooms. Clean, quit and comfortable hotel with some negative issues. There is no television in the rooms. We asked the owner and his reply was that this is a hotel policy and life theory!!. I thing, he has to leave the option to his guests if they want to watch TV or not. No wifi in the rooms but only at the reception. Very short time for the breakfast. From 8:30 to 10:00. Breakfast was just fine. Not more not less. The refrigerator was unacceptable small. The pool was very small but that was more than ok for us. We didn't go to Matala to swim in a pool but in the amazing beaches like "Agiofarago", "Agios Pavlos" "Kokkini Paralia", etc.
