Nice old school hotel (in good condition, clean). Very pleasant service (people on site, cleaners every day), beautiful views, beach right next to the hotel, no extra charge (dog stay, beach umbrellas). Parking available, wifi works. At first we booked for one night, but we stayed for two more because this hotel and location are a real gem of the southern region. Don't imagine 5 stars (with pools, free alcohol and massage), it's 4 stars and very very good. We have stayed in about 30 hotels across Crete and this one is a really good choice for this region - price/quality ratio, attitude, location on the beach. The funniest thing is that 10 km away is Matala (oversaturated with tourists and expensive) and then you discover such a gem as Kalamaki, kilometers of empty sandy beach right in front of the hotel, and no tourist traps, You have here really authentic taverns, a few cute shops, a beautiful village right on the beach. I've just told you a secret :) And thanks to the hotel owners who organized a very nice free lunch for the guests on Easter.

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely villa. The place was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The host was extremely kind and welcoming, always available and willing to help. We truly appreciated the hospitality and would happily return. Highly recommended!

The place is beautifully designed with good taste. We enjoyed the swimming pool very much and the location between the Harbour and the Beach.

It was nice that it had wifi, free parking (is like 2 minutes walk), the common kitchen and washing-machine were useful and the hostess was verry reasonable. It has a close super-market and tavernas that are close to walk by. And of course the good AC.

    Kalamaki Beach is generally well-sheltered compared to other beaches on the south coast of Crete. However, it can still get breezy, especially in the afternoons when the meltemi (northern summer wind) picks up. That said, the wind is usually mild and refreshing—not disruptive—making it pleasant for sunbathing and swimming.

    A small, quiet, typical tourist settlement - the beach, shops and several good restaurants. A large number of cats in the entire area, but it was not bothersome. 15-20 minutes drive to two towns where there is a weekly market and a larger variety of shops.

    The beach is lovely - sandy and not too busy.

    The beach is lovely - sandy and not too busy. The sea is clean and perfect temperature for snorkelling, swimming or playing in. About half the beach has sunloungers on it but there is space to also play sports or just sit away from other people. There are lots of places to visit from Kalamaki - Matala beach with its caves, ancient Phaistos, Zaros lake and Rouvas gorge, Agia Galini is not far if you want to take boat trips. Kalamaki has a really good supermarket and lots of restaurants even though it is a small place. Lots of different nationalities of holidaymakers. It is a really nice, relaxing place. The sunsets from the beach are incredible

    The location is perfect! It is in the quieter side of Kalamaki so the beach was not crowded and we could enjoy it. The owners are kind and accommodating and the staff as well is friendly. We travelled with a 3y.o. who is quite picky with his food and the owners went above and beyond to make sure he was ok. We enjoyed the sunrise and sunset! The place is great if you want to slow down a bit and stay away from the noise of the city..

    The host was very kind. She offered us a very good snack with coffee, fruit and cakes when we arrived. The location is just incredible, 2 minutes walk from the beaches. It's a good place to stay for a few days and visit the Minoan palaces, the town of Matala and relax in Kalamaki. Highly appreciated and recommended! Also don't forget to visit the Creta Nature shop, this is ... typical.

    If you do not mind freezing temp with zero heating despite single glazed windows & just painted rough concrete on ceilings in otherwise very basic room, you should be fine - just keep in mind that the "Katherina rooms" sign got overgrown with vegetation and is unvisible, so go check behind the bushes
