What's nearby

  • Above the beach at Matala, on the south coast of Crete, are a number of caves carved into the cliffside. During the Roman rule of Crete, the caves housed tombs. In the 1960s, the by-then empty caves hosted hippies who used them to camp out in. Matala still has a slight counter-culture feel to it.

Potentiel à exploiter mieux.

Hôtel qui a du potentiel. Grandes chambres . Matelas ferme mais on sent les ressorts. Il serait préférable d’avoir un sur matelas. Pas d’eau chaude 2 jours sur 3 vers 17h… petit déjeuner acceptable. Très belle piscine. Calme

Close to beach, friendly service, recommended

Decided to spend a night in town and booked a single night at Calypso. I arrived after having watched the sunset on the beach at 8 pm to friendly staff, a nice clean room, and an offer to have a tasty dinner at the hotel!

Super accueil, la piscine et les transats sont bien pas trop au soleil. La chambre et le balcon sont bien équipés. Grand douche ce qui est rare en Crête. Le repas du soir n’est pas bon sauf le bbq du samedi soir. Le petit déjeuner n’ est pas mal. Les jardins sont superbe, le centre de vie à moins de 10 min à pied. Une très bon séjour
